The Mansion
Presley is a three piece rock band from the Boston area. Drawing from influences all over the map, theyre best seen in the live setting. Presley does not go on stage with a set list and will often improvise whirling, loud and melodic sound-scapes during the live show, segueing from one song to another usually without notice to the audience. Presley has shared bills with bands from all different genres from rockabilly to grindcore.

Presley has three CD's out: a 6 track CD from 2001, a 12 track full length CD recorded with Steve Austin of Today is the Day fame, and the 2005 release Elizabeth. They will be recording their next full length CD in the summer of 2007 for release at the beginning of 2008.

Some review quotes from the Elizabeth EP (read the full reviews in the blog section): "The band has morphed into a spacy but tight improv / jam-rock band somewhere between Phish, Mogwai, Godspeed You Black Emperor! (the first album, at least), and Hawkwind, only with a bright and poppy center..."

"...as a purveyor of noisy landscapes and improvisational exploring, Presley remains a band of the highest order"

"If I were to classify them I'd say that they're a psych/stoner rock band that holds equal appeal for potheads, beer drinkers and hell raisers. Christian Campagna's heavily effected and often droning guitar lines are augmented by Aarne Victorine's melodic bass and Breaux Silcio's drumming, which ranges from subtle cymbal splashes to near blast beat pounding. To cop a line from their third and latest release, ***Elizabeth***, they're musicians with deep record collections who're "Stuck in fuckin' Providence with the Memphis blues again" somewhere between Dylan and ***Daydream Nation***, Husker Du and Hawkwind."

The newest record, "The Mansion" was recorded and mixed at Analog Divide with Tim Shea in 2007/2008. Mastered by Kramer in the fall of 2008. The record should be out some time in the winter. The Mansion is an 8 track full length album (the first since...the last one) which is again loosely based on a "concept". The album summons a darker mood than earlier releases, but still retains the melody present in older songs. The majority of the songs on The Mansion were culled from long improvised "jams" that were recorded, listened to and eventually put back together by the band to form songs, ending with the 13:00 journey "The Green Attic". ..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

The Lionheart from Relix Magazine sample
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pjc4I4W2-yk
“Time bends and you blast past planets, stars, solar systems, to arrive in a thrilling, exotic place you’ve never been before. The New Cartographers take you on the same kind of wild ride, exploring brave new musical worlds and bending concepts like looping and melody to their own virtuosic ways. McSurely and drummer Michael Petrucci map out fresh territory, using rock improvisation and textural sonics to define a terrain rich in sweeping beauty, daring in scope, and bristling with creative energy. Recording in Roslindale, Massachusetts’ Big Big Studios with an analog tape machine, vintage plate and spring reverbs, a sampler, and a handful of stomp boxes, they create what McSurely playfully calls “retro sounds of the future.

OUT NOW

The Hunter Gracchus Companions of the Porch CD-R

We've never been able to quite pin down exactly what it is that The Hunter Gracchus do, which is a wonderful thing. A shifting unit with Syed Kamran Ali, Fiona Marshall and Jon Marshall at the core, they have recently settled into a fairly stable unit of six, but it's hard to know how long that'll last. Still, while it does, it's producing all manner of magical and highly unexpected performances. The one captured here was recorded at the band's practice room cum gig space, Fagin's Hideout/The Furniture Makers and is a less blistering freakout than some of their recent output, preferring to quietly explore every nook of tonal space. It simmers rather than erupts and, the longer you become immersed in it, the less aware you become of the passage of time. It's a recording that feels like it should go on forever and, when it does come to a close, the silence is shocking. In a time when it's all too easy for a group of improvisers to just go full-tilt in some euphoric pursuit, the Hunter Gracchus provides us with a glowing alternative that draws us slowly in and drowns our senses. This is truly awesome.

Ltd to 80 copies

Peeesseye I Woke Up and Drank a Bottle of Cheap Kojak CDR

Peeesseye made the scene at Dylan Nyoukis's Colour Out of Space festival last summer and hopped over to Manchester to play a show at the Town Hall Tavern, the recording of which forms the content of this incredible slab of dense droning harmonium, scraping, buzzing, subtly soloing guitar and pulse-free, scatter-drumming. We can't recommend this enough.
