Tommy Kelly - Storyville (The Other Side of The Dream) ...and others!

   Dr. Thomas Dennis Kelly, M.D., also known as Tommy Kelly (Mlac, The Good Luck Twins, Carpe Musical, Cat Arms) is one of the forefronts of the musical oddities that unfold into listener's ears from the Anti-Raunchwagon ticker tape maker. Today we are graced with all three of his full length albums.
   The first one, The Death of Cowboy Conch Shell, was recorded with Sean Wisniewski on drums, in 2006, very quickly. Tom was performing as "Cowboy Conch Shell" at the time, and said he had to hurry up and record the album so he could kill himself. Hence, The Death of. Tom had an angsty antsy anxious yearning to express something, and without real theoretical knowledge of music, he was able to create a pre-post-rock album that pre-dated the current post-rock dinosaurs walking around in this desolate musical Ice Age now that Mark Linkous is dead. So basically a current rock album. In 2006.
   The second album Tommy Kelly wrote and recorded was The Mountains We Must Climb, but the tape was lost by Tommy's boss at Holiday Market, so Tom b*tched him out. But then he remembered some songs, added a couple new, recorded them on garage band over the course of a week or two, and was ready to release Mountains to the world in 2011. He gave me the songs months ago and I have strung him along by the fur on his neck until times concurrent with your reading this. But, alas, here is his "second" album released alongside the first and "third".
   The true third album was Storyville. Tom met me while recording this mammoth, or behemoth, of an album, and then shortly after released it at a Cat Arms show in February 2008. We were both scorpios, that smoked cloves, musicians, curly hair, striped socks, drank energy drinks constantly, etc. so I was anticipating this beast's unearthing. It deals with themes of birthdays, apologies, love triangles, snickers, the devil, freak show audio clips, and it was all made using a computer voice memo microphone into some Sony mixing program we've probably all deleted off our old PCs at one point or another. Sounding eerily like Modest Mouse after being tortured by Nirvana then given ice cream, I have finally prepared the tracks for pubic decency, so now all eardrums may find drummers to the infamous sounds of 'Storyville' and two more great albums from the vault!

Richard Gumby - Genetic Outcast (Disk 1)



Do you think that it is suitable for me to get you out of your minds? I'm not on a stage, I'm just at my house, this is Scott. This was going to be an EPIC two-hour masterpiece but I'm just gonna let you have a little bit at a time so to speak. Or to speak literally.

In co-concurrence with the first two Richard Gumby releases, Eat It (Disk 1), and Eat It (Disk 2), I am giving this first volume's entitlement an ending more familiar to die-hard Dick G. fans' eyes. The other nine 'Disks' will pre-come soon.
