While I was listening to Unida's unreleased album "
The Great Divide", the mailman knocked on the door. He came with a packet of records I had ordered. Great stuff like: Middian and Wooden Shjips. But what was funny, is, that while listening to this great unreleased desert stuff and opening the packet, I realised I had ordered Sabbia, the art-videoproject by Kate McCabe with music by Brant Bjork. And more to this there was the "
Disco Marching Kraft EP" by Earthlings? and "
Songs from the Ancient Age" by Spindrift. Wow, I look so much forward to all this stuff while I paint a room in my apartment. The video have to wait for later ...
Spindrift is a brand new relationship to me. Stumpled over them by accident - but what a nice one. Although not a desert rock band in the traditional way, they also worship the desert. Spindrift is the brainchild of Kirpatrick Thomas. First album is "
Songs from the Ancient Age" and the second is called "
The Legend of God's Gun" and features current and former members of Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Warlocks, and other Los Angeles psychedelic veterans. "
The Legend of God's Gun" is also a rock-n-roll-spaghetti-style-western/ glorified music video feature film made by Mike Bruce. This is still unreleased, but you can watch the trailer.
