Mother and the Addicts Press Release:
"In the studio, the band sought to get the most out of a limited range of equipment: guitars, bass, drums and an old Yamaha CS5 – resulting in an album that’s resolutely modern whilst throwing affectionate nods and winks to the ghosts of classics past. It’s rooted in the type of music that offered an ‘eight-hour escape’ from the drudgery of the working week; that celebrated the lure of the dance floor, the soundtrack of a Saturday night. Mother And The Addicts are very much a throwback to all of those bands that were skilled at what they played and knew how to get a party started…
“The best music always recognises the clash between the sweet and the sour – disco always had its hangover. I’ve never managed to fully get the American ‘rawk’ thing and have always felt more drawn to the kind of acerbic intelligence you find in British and US post-punk bands, there’s also an affinity with reggae, soul, and disco - a lot of my family had been skin heads and soul boys when I was growing up and they introduced me to that type of thing.”"
We should call it Dropping The Network Out Of The Dakota...
Here's the old Mysterian "flyers"...
