Together We Make Sense Of Life

 

There's been a whole plum lotta dead meat under the bridge kids, but here we are, once and finally coming to you with a snatch of yet more good shit, soon to be emanating from Hamburger Tapes' upcoming Wooden Wives and Lee Harvey Oswalds split record Together We Make Sense Of Life, to be released June 16 in Fredericton at Gallery Connexion and June 18 in Saint John at Peppers Pub and the advent of 5 Seconds of Decision. Pretty good run on sentence, huh?

The tape finds both bands considerably broadening their palettes, as well as colaborating both musically and artisically. Album art was shared by both groups (pictured above), while each covered the other's music as well, with the Lee Harveys offering an endless raga of Wives proto-punk, and the Wives a frat rock rave-up of LHO drone.

While you'll have to wait for the tape to hear the covers, you can find previews of both bands' originals at their respective Bandcamp.com pages. In addition, watch that space for more music to come from Wooden Wives, reaching back through to three-fourths of the Wives' previous band The Organizers, plus other side and solo sounds.

Let's spell it all out then man, for the ol' Hamburger Together tape. For all yr Wooden Wives woes, visit woodenwives.bandcamp.com to hear a tune called I Don't Stand Talkin' In The Wind, named for The Duke's same indictment. Take yer baby by the hand kids and just live. For all yer Lee Harveys haberdashery, attend to thelhos.bandcamp.com for two tracks. Everything Is Blue is a Velvet chug, while Flower Show out smacks Black Lips.

You can also catch Halifax's Quivers at the Gallery Connexion show and Tune In Tokyo at the Peppers Pub 5 Seconds Of Decision launch, with tapes and more on sale at each.
