Word reaches me that Fire Records are putting out a huge collaborative project Chamber Music which features Mountain Men Anonymous alongside many other different artists (I count 20 artists in total). People like Flying Saucer Attack, Bardo Pond, Lee Ranaldo, … There are mini artist biogs on the Fire Records site.
The whole thing is a musical interpretation of a poem by James Joyce and the idea is a very ambitious one, years in the making. We do like Fire Records very much indeed.
Well, this is the My Kung Fu label website and I should probably highlight that when we launched My Kung Fu in 2004, we released Mountain Men Anonymous’ own full length album Krkonose. It was our first album release and it still smacks gobs today! Beautiful and violent to varying degrees. If you want to get it, try Bleep, eMusic or iTunes. (Mountain Men Anonymous are no longer playing live as a group.)
As for James Joyce, he wrote Ulysses and Finnegans Wake and I think I’m right in saying he invented the word “quark” so beloved of physicists and sci fi writers today.
