about

Lo-fi alt.rock, scuzz folk alt.americana banging. Made at home.

"The Nightowl Sings (Marc Gillen) second TOR release arrived in November 2010. The opening quiet/loud dynamic of ‘Black Tambourine’ sets the scene in a world where Guided By Voices are always number one and Kurt Cobain married Tobi Vail and retired to chop wood and release spray painted DIY cassettes in Nebraska.

Stephen Benson and David Thompson provide additional chops to many of the albums songs, giving the record a ‘band in a room’ feel as opposed to the tense singular claustrophobia of the ‘Ghosts’ E.P.

‘Eyes illuminated’ is a lo-fi scuzzfest that shouts out to lost hero Dan Tracey, as it dances in deep woods with strangers.

‘Sunset At Smurf's Castle’ tugs at memories of childhood hideaways, friendly ghosts and looking out to sea as its nine minutes bursts with high octane choruses and intense smouldering codas.

‘Mary George’ murmurs tales of incest and lust, its haunted vocal wrapped up in banjo and sparse percussion.

‘My Head in Lists’ is a fuzz pop classic, as James Brown fights it out with The Fall and gets his arse kicked.

The album’s closer ‘Slow Movers/To You’ is a hazy instrumental of lolloping drums and samples which unfurls into a lovelorn poem to that girl you love." - Marc Gillen.
