Description
Despite the name, Wicked Immigrant is neither an evil band of migrant workers nor a right-wing anti-alien group. It is, in fact, just two guys with a fucked-up sense of humor and the urge to create melodic, home-recorded music over great distances.
"White Nuns on Red Wine" is Wicked Immigrant's latest offering. Its concise songs, crisp fidelity, improved performances and sharpened lyrics make strides over their debut.
John (in Denver, Colorado) and Chris (Dayton, Ohio) mailed Zip discs to each other in order to create "White Nuns," layering their contributions over the waning months of 2004 and enlisting people like Mike Behrenahusen (Maraca 5-0, Blusom), Dan Miller (Upstate, Dishwater Psychics) and Bob Patrick (Wildcat Road) to contribute. Never having practiced or played together, the members created a weirdly intimate mood of collaboration. If Bob Pollard had Lou Barlow's voice and Sam Beam's fingers, he might have made this album on a month-long beer bender. Or not.
Formed in 2003, Dayton, Ohio natives John Wenzel and Chris Jones enlisted the help of friends to craft "Reunion of Cynics," an indie-folk album that had no illusions about its stylistic schizophrenia. Plucked acoustic guitars, cut-rate synthesizers, agile basslines and aging cellos and pianos arranged themselves in a resolutely mid-fi way. Fuzzy vocals complimented lyrics that spoke alternately of hope, despair and the drunken dismissal of both.
