GREG 'STACKHOUSE' PREVOST - Vintage Violence: Barbaric, Crude & Primitive 1975-1979 (Penniman) LP
Crudely recorded in dank basements, muggy rehearsal rooms or after-hours, in sub-zero temperatures, in the offices of a local pest extermination company, the tracks on this album document Prevost’s primal musical experiments in the 1970s: the glorious avant-garde white heat blizzard of Mr. Electro & the Void, the unrelenting Stoogian scorch of Mr. Electro & the Psychedelic Lampshade, a demo for the deathless “Rejected at the High School Dance” that sounds like something you might find on a Keith Richards cassette tape misplaced during the Exile on Main Street sessions, the unchained Troglodyte grunt and thud of Mr. Electro & the Psychedelic Burnouts (including two bat-shit crazy Pretty Things jams), the demented euphoria of the Distorted Levels, and the embryonic Chesterfield Kings sinking their teeth into some carefully chosen sixties-era nuggets. Barbaric. Crude. Primitive. Beautiful.
Gatefold cover with extensive liner notes.
