Adam Lehrer/Safety Propganda Never understood New Zealand. How can a country dumb enough to elect an Antifa lady for president with almost zero evidence of any other culture also have such a wealth of beautiful and strange music? Anyways, GandF’s elegant worn out guitar pop remains stunning and singular.

about

If you were a certain type of music fan in the mid-nineties, you may have heard tell of this incredible, incredibly hard to find, double album by The Garbage & The Flowers. Each jacket was hand-painted, and all 300 copies sold out in a flash. Thankfully, the great Bo'Weavil label reissued Eyes Rind As If Beggars in 2013. If you haven't heard it, please do listen...ok, you heard it now? You're welcome!

It turns out the group was Helen Johnstone, Yuri Frusin, and Paul Yates, an inspired trio who emphasized lyrical collaboration and sound manipulation as part and parcel to their melodies. They didn't last long as a group, but luckily, they got a lot of their songs recorded.

The Deep Niche is music they made before Eyes Rind and it is every bit as revelatory. Johnstone sings over raucous and raw instrumentation. It's real rock, the real real thing.

Torben Tilly joined just in time to contribute some keyboard to the track ’29 Years,' although he mostly was their drummer. Just in time, too, because The Deep Niche presents a band fresh to playing with some massive tools, them being, natch, The Tools Of Rock. These songs are every bit as powerful as what you hear on Eyes Rind As If Beggars. Believe it.
