stooges, velvet underground, captain beefheart, beasts of bourbon, the scientists, the birthday party, gun club, jesus & mary chain, monks, flaming stars, the drones, chrome cranks, pussy galore, oblivians, the fall, the cramps, tom waits, dirty three, nick cave & the bad seeds, gallon drunk etc. also, surely, for the classics as johnny cash, hank williams, lee hazlewood, harry belafonte, the sinatra family & dino, dylan, cohen and most of them all, nina simone. howlin’ wolf, john lee hooker etc. not to forget about can, faust, einstürzende neubauten, swans, john cale & tony conrad, primordeal garage punk as well as roots music from all over this planet, and anyway, i am curious and easily bored. for years struck by the beauty and strict politics of monotone-basic & plain stupous delta blues & rockabilly, i begin to wonder where the next frontiers will be. these days experimentating a lot on drones and whatever will be a valuable tool to generate atmosphere. noise and attitude, passion and intuition will hopefully keep me excited enough to try my luck on new stuff every day. maniac, amen.

Neye Benziyor?
restless. sleepless. stuffed with arrogance, doldrum fury, vanity and rightful depression. perversion of beauty. i passed the gun to her hand, but she refused to shoot me. retromantic rock'n'roll with noise and a heartbeat, one hand on her chest while the other holds the bottle. blood on the guitar. the crack in the ceiling, the stains on the matress. the praying hands. you get the picture.
TEX NAPALM is the antithesis of his own belief, the man that time forgot. Apart from doing his 'thang' for twenty years right about now, this man has been the singer and guitar player of THE IRON COBRA ORCHESTRA (since 2002) and the legendary MOTORCYCLO SADISTO (since 1995), also hits the strings for germany's psychobilly & death country legend THE RAYMEN, his fellow MARK STEINER, experiments with TEAMFOREST and even appears as bass player in doom rockers AZUL BLACK MESSIAH. He used to play in the country-delirious THE TWO GUN MOJO, also has been with VAMPYRE STATE BUILDING and ZOMBIE HOTEL, and a massive number of rightfully forgotten projects. Recent works include the fertile collaborations with his lost french brother DIMI DERO (with whom he plays in the ASHTRAY HEARTS, alongside guitarman THE DUSTY ONE and manic Lo' SPIDER, as well as in their transatlantic incarnation, featuring the BELLMER DOLLS' ANTHONY S. MALAT on bass), LISA BAREL, RAMBLIN' RENE and his latest, dark-folked occupation as one half of THE BLACK WIDOW STRANGLERS. *****************************

CURRENT NEWS:that fierce beast "DIONYSUS RISING" will be released via STAGGER RECORDS on VINYL ONLY in april (STAGG005), so duck & cover, you bats out there. As you want this record very very bad, i suggest you place your orders at www.myspace/staggerrecords pretty soon. If couching doesn't kill me in cold germany, I will also hit the road in april with my ragged company of DIMI DERO (if he survives his trips to OZ and taiwan - but i know how to handle a drum machine, no worries), THE DUSTY ONE and fellow rock'n'roll animal LO' SPIDER, so if you're living in france, chances are you'll have to witness what we come up this time, disguised as TEX NAPALM & THE ASHTRAY HEARTS. the texophone was only the beginning...
FURTHER DEMOLITION: autumn might see us (TEX NAPALM, DIMI DERO & ANTHONY S.MALAT) return to the U.S. - as soon as details are clear, we need your help, because last time has been just too good for us as that we could dare to expect to pull that number twice...
