• V&V Episode 133 Mark Shippy (US Maple) discusses Long Hair in Three Stages

  Mark Shippy is here to discuss US Maple's stunning debut album, Long Hair in Three Stages. Partially because it seemed to difficult to sum up what could have been one influential album that helped shape or inform the work that US Maple was making. But in just discussing that topic a little it becomes very evident that typical classic rock had a big hand in that, but what may have been even more crucial was a lot of soundtrack music by the likes of Michael Small and Basil Kirchin. Second being, Long Hair has been reissued for the third time by Skingraft Records, and the first time on a colored vinyl variant. You can visit their store to pick that up here: https://usmaple.bandcamp.com/album/long-hair-in-three-stages-2Much thanks to Mark Fischer for helping make the connect!We also have a new website (still under construction) www.psychic-static.com "buy me a coffee" or stiff drink!

• V&V Episode 132 Venus Twins & The Mars Volta's Deloused in the Comatorium

  What a great band Venus Twins are! If you're not familiar, they're certainly noisy but as I learn in this episode, they've had some musical training, and that shows through in a jazzy, proggy way. Kinda like this album we discuss, The Mars Volta's Deloused in the Comatorium. To be honest, this time I only touch on the album in a surface manner to be able to focus more attention to the impact this album had on these guys and more about The Twins' personal musical journey to get to where they are now, and where they're going. Pretty exciting. The last release the Twins put out was called "/\/\/\/\/"(pronounced Stitching) and it's available through ThreeOneG Records. Get it here: https://venustwins.bandcamp.com/album/pronounced-stitching-epAnd don't forget to follow them to find out when the new release and upcoming shows will be. https://linktr.ee/VenusTwinsFind out more about us and support this show by visiting www.psychicstatic.netTheme song written and performed by Jeff Robbins of 123 Astronaut and Orbit.Thank you!

• V&V Episode 112 Eddie Shaw of The Monks

  It is an honor to bring to you Eddie Shaw! The bass player of The Monks! The Monks have been a long time influence and inspiration to me, personally, as well as being a influence over countless bands since 1966 through today thanks to the rediscovery of the band through Ugly Things Magazine in the 90's. Their album, Black Monk Time, has since been reissue many times through many labels and they have even had some previously unreleased songs released for the first time through Jack White's Third Man Records.It's a wild and incredible story which I am honored to have been able to sit with Eddie and try to get a full description of what was happening at the time, what was informing their direction, the continued legacy and what he's been up to lately. I encourage you all to pick up a copy of his book Black Monk Time through the provided links. Also, listen to the album! It's only available to stream through YouTube at the moment.(Light in The Attic Records I'm looking at you!)If you'd like to know more about us and how to support the show, please visit our website www.psychicstatic.netTheme song written and performed by Jeff Robbins of 123 Astronaut/Orbit.https://www.the-monks.com/https://carsonstreetpublishing.com/books/https://youtu.be/-l2D0QfJSt8?si=dfi_TR1ceq6AarWd

• V&V Episode 097 Vashti Bunyan & Lambchop's OH(Ohio)

  I am honored to bring to you today, my conversation with Vashti Bunyan. Who is Vashti, you may ask. Well, she has a book out now, with a paperback release coming this fall, called Wayward: Just Another Life to Live. So, if you'd like to know all the details, I implore you to buy it here:https://a.co/d/9XW5tuII'm not trying to support Amazon, I just can't find the publisher's direct website. In a nutshell, Vashti became disheartened by the record industry, decided to quit music and follow Donovan(Yes, that Donovan!) out to a newly acquired land of his in Scotland with her partner at the time by a horse drawn wagon from London. The journey took a year and a half. And all of that lead to the writing of what would become her now seminal and sought after debut album, Just Another Diamond Day.On today's show, she summarizes that journey even better, while discussing with me an album that wasn't necessarily an influence on her music writing, but certainly an album she loves. There are some connections that are made, but this is a little bit of a different conversation. If you're not familiar with her music, you really ought to listen to some of it. Here is a link to a couple of music streaming sites. https://open.spotify.com/artist/4chuPfKtATDZvbRLExsTp2?si=gw8EHzihRN-WFySkIyHP3Qhttps://music.apple.com/us/artist/vashti-bunyan/23956529This was a great conversation, and if you like it too please share with a friend, and please rate or review.

• V&V Episode 092 Martin Bisi(BC Studio, engineer, producer) & The Dresden Dolls

  Here's something fantastic! Typically on this show we discuss an influential album with an artist that was influenced by it. But today we have Martin Bisi, to discuss an album that was an influence on him, but through helping to create it. Martin met Amanda Palmer in 2001 prior to The Dresden Dolls having even really fully formed. He followed their development over a year ultimately leading up to their, almost, year long stay at BC Studios to record their seminal debut. In this discussion Martin recounts some of his memories of that recording session, as well as some other stories throughout his years behind the board at BC!SEE the documentary, Sound and The Chaos: The Story of BC Studio, staring Martin Bisi here: https://www.bcstudiobk.com/documentaryREAD about the Voice of Gowanus coalition here: https://www.voiceofgowanus.org/LISTEN to the sounds of new bands that recorded at BC Studios here: https://clonebk.bandcamp.com/album/s-t-splitAND here: https://theresistancecompany.bandcamp.com/album/in-memory-ofand HERE: https://whitesuns.bandcamp.com/SUPPORT us by making any type of purchase from our website here: www.psychicstatic.netTheme song written and performed by Jeff Robbins of 123 Astronaut and Orbit.
