Product Description
Limited edition of the German alternative rock icons' 2004 album features exclusive 'coverpack' packaging, 16 tracks including 1 bonus track, 'Starless', & booklet with many color photos. SPV.
Nimby is a four-piece band consisting of Jerry Wheeler on lead vocals, trombone, harmonica and whistling (listen to "Detour De Jour"); the amazing David Kerman on drums, percussion, and vocals; main writer James Grigsby on guitars, organs, and vocals; and last but not least the multi-dimensional Bob Drake on vocals, bass guitar, keys, violin, and even the banjo. While most of the songs are sung by Wheeler, Bob Drake appears on perhaps the most avant-garde number "Tattoo Removal", a piece with unexpected melodic twists, odd soundscapes, and neat arrangement. Bob Drake has always been one of the forerunners of the American RIO school of thought, but I've always believed, no matter how experimental and bizarre his compositions may be, he's always had one foot in the rock realm. Perhaps it's because of Drake why "Everybody's Hanging", one of the most atonal pieces on the album, still manages to rock and groove relentlessly, as waves of saxophone and swift guitar changes are incorporated. The lyrics on Songs for Adults are quite humorous, but the band will fearlessly explore themes of death, murder and suicide on the banjo-filled "Thanks Dialysis Man!" or just hum along wordless melodies on the cool bass and percussion-captured "Helper Monkey", with a chorus that is repeated from start to finish. Wheeler's harmonica playing on "The Mass is Crass" embraces both bluegrass and country elements, but it would be daft to imagine any country fan actually listening to it, considering the avant-garde vocal approach applied by the quartet.
Recorded in Southern France in only a few days, the songs are short and compact with a distinct live feel to them. Listeners of these artists' earlier bands will immediately pick up on what was intended with these pieces, while newcomers may find it hard to grasp on first listen. Just looking at the weird song titles should give them an idea of what to expect. For fans of Slapp Happy, 5uu's, Vril, U-Totem and many other experimentalist indie artists.
