WOLFMANHATTAN PROJECT 'Summer Forever & Ever' LP
$42.00
Coloured vinyl version via In The Red Records.
Brilliantly trashy no-wave rock supergroup featuring Bob Bert (Sonic Youth, Pussy Galore, Lydia Lunch’s Retrovirus), Mick Collins (Gories, Dirtbombs) and Kid Congo Powers (Gun Club, The Cramps, Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, Pink Monkey Birds).
Merriam-Webster definition of supergroup: a rock group made up of prominent former members of other rock groups, also: an extremely successful rock group. While the definition of “extremely successful” may differ, there can be no arguing that Wolfmanhattan Project are a supergroup.
This three piece features Bob Bert, Mick Collins and Kid Congo Powers and their collective track record beats Blind Faith, West, Bruce And Laing and The Power Station’s resumes combined!
All three members write, sing and play in this band and, for anyone familiar with the member’s other bands, this stuff is as twisted and great as one can hope for. Everyone involved brings flavors from their past efforts and it’s all mixed together into one unholy rock ’n’ roll gumbo. It’s sleazy, swampy, trashy, no-wavey, weird and rocking!
References and sometimes even direct quotes from sources as diverse as the Andrea True Connection, Captain Beefheart, the Count Five, and Eurythmics leap out of the speakers.
