Nick Cave, SWANS, Tones on Tail/Bauhaus(anything with Daniel Ash),Leonard Cohen,Early Cure,U2 and Lou Reed,The Clash, But also Joy Division, Pulp, Gallon Drunk, Wolfgang Press, Ted Stevens from Lullaby for the Working Class and former drummer Steve Micek, and Tuesday Weld, genre of singers who are also authors such as JIM CARROll!! Salute!
Sounds Like
POST PUNK!:Rich vocals, full band to acoustic to solo electric. Manchester Goth to Clash kind of guitaring, has a Saddle Creek likeness coming through at times, but heavy on the The Pogues Low, Crime& The City Solution, somewhat Scotts-Irish, somewhat dark, and very much Nick Cave/SWANS...

Julian Edgar is fronted by songwriter/guitarist James Wilkinson. He has been working to put together and record his first complete album, entitled "So Tremendously Like a Dream." He has been playing these songs in various incarnations and locations for many years. James has lived in cities all over the US such as New York, Chicago, Seattle, Omaha Miami, Portland, Anchorage, also Weisbaden-Mainz Germany, various places abroad, etc and has bands or performed music in almost all of them, but got very involved in the Omaha, Nebraska indie scene at its height, and has played with artists Son, Ambulance and Simon Joyner, Teusday Weld, Legitimate Edgar.and other assholes on MTV not worth talking to or mentioning. Many of his contemporaries from different music scenes went onto produce Major label or Decent records such as Bright Eyes, Mayday and Neva Dinova. James still strives onward and with confidence is hoping to make his Literary mark on the Indie-goth rock scene and be able to entertain.
Recording happened with the support of Jeremy, Faith, and Caitlin to complete a band set up in the studio. What you are hearing now on this myspace are tracks from the unreleased album and are a couple are not necessarily considered finished products. James is trying to finish raising money to get the album mastered and pressed for release as a demo or just as a self-made album, since it has been studio-recorded and tracked.
Every one try and go see G.G. Allen's Back up band.13th and Carson tonight @the Smiling Moose His Brother Merle is now singing and Merle sounds pretty much just the same as G.G.s voice but relies a bit more on use of the P.A. system this time to get the volume from vocals. Merle does'nt use more than 100% of his voice to get the 100% sound needed for the lyrics but please look up Murder Junkies on myspace to verify how good they sound currently as a group. G.G. 's legacy was clearly the latest and greatest Archetypal supernova in punk rock And G.G. himself was the Greatest thing to happen in punk rock since 1979 : The true king of the rock and roll underground.
