Mitch Elrod and the Hick Engine Ears
Gone Fictioncouched in the wordling series
"Wild, angular, sinewy, new and old would all be suitable adjectives to describe the music on the CD contained herein, but they would still do a disservice the intense visceral reaction one has when first hearing Mitch Elrod and the Hick Engine Ears' debut release, Gone Fiction. Led by Elrod, a displaced Georgian with an intense love and respect of all things musical, this Albany, NY power trio delivers balls and brains, corrupted blues, existentialist meditations, improvised in the moment. All brought together by the soaring fluidity and utter abandon of Elrod's vocal approach. When playing live, the Telecaster-slinging singer takes inspiration from and lends inspiration toward lock-step drummer Peter Sheehan, and the terrifyingly excellent Jon Cohen on the bass guitar. From silence to cacophony, just like turning on a switch. Redneck Science Rock. Have Mercy."
"Be you hayseed or urbanite, be you frivolous or all bidness, Be you hippie, yippie, or yuppie, from Atlanta all the freakin way to Marrakesh, there is music on this album that will speak to you, and maybe in some strange way, for you. Elrod and the band can be found playing regularly at any number of clubs in the Albany, NY area, and the place to go for information on these stupendous artists is The Elrod CyberMothership, at www.spelrod.com . In the meantime, put on Gone Fiction and prepare to bug out."
