   About The Verlaines

Corporate Moronic 14.7.09

"All Verlaines is great, so's the Downes solo album on Matador. All great, all great. To further clarify my position on this I would just like to say here that everything Graeme Downes writes is great, and to resolve any ambiguity in that statement, I would like to restate it using slightly different phrasing: all Graeme Downes is great." ― John Darnielle.

Well... should be pressed in a week or two and thus available on some level. But as for "available" available, in a "get it in stores and send it out for reviews" way, haven't quite sorted how I'm gonna play that little game yet. And you??

Please check out our new comedic “vampire bankers” music video. The guy who directed this also directed Madonna’s first music vid. We think it’s pretty funny.
It’s available as a free mp3 download on http://www.ukejackson.com

Thanks for being our friend!

Kia Ora, Loved the interview on National Radio yesterday, insightful and bloody interesting. Love your style and music, can't wait to buy the new album!
Great Work as always! Arohanui Doug Poole.

Poem for the Road,

Pouliuli 13

To Tuaoloa, Edwina and Katherine

Sweeping the floor
I found a photo of you
1934, a black fox straddles
your broad shoulders

It was beneath the old dresser
beside the old singer, that crooner
sewed Sunday best; daughter’s white Sunday dress

Flying foxes terrify
your daughter, who hates them
more than snakes that bite young legs

a transistor hangs in the fale
red, languid, a gift from a
son for the return home
no AA’s
- it is 1974 after all

Dry-docked his first call,
his mother’s baby sister, his favorite Aunty,
who sings and tells him stories
he has never heard before.

Sweeping out the fale,
dust a flock of manu’sina,
hitting the sun, heading for perches
in the low hanging hands
of children playing.

D.
