David Thomas and his wild guitar &amp; trumpet splinter group, the two pale boys, generate strange new shapes, rolling stories and sonic panoramas out of spontaneous deconstructions. The see-sawing of a melodeon gives way to cascading electronica and expressionistic soundscapes&ndash; sometimes pulsating and abrasive, sometimes mysterious and exploratory. Through it all runs the mordant wit of one of the most distinctive and charismatic singers in modern music. </p><p>David Thomas is the founder of the legendary <a title='Go to the Pere Ubu page' href='/pere_ubu'><span class='highlight1'>Pere Ubu</span></a>, an avant-rock group that's exerted a huge influence on the way countless bands have approached music since 1975. Formed in 1994, the two pale boys redefine the partnership of voice and instrument in pursuit of a vehicle robust, spontaneous, and parochial enough to speak with the true voice of the human experience. It is urban folk music purged of urbanity, and rooted in the geography of sound. Andy Diagram (Diagram Brothers, James, The Honkies, The Spaceheads) plays trumpet through radio receivers, echo machines &amp; delays, layering sound-on-sound cascades of electronica. Keith Molin&eacute; (They Came From The Stars I Saw Them, Infidel) manipulates multiple voices, dynamic calamities, delicate whispers, and angular rhythms via a midi-guitar setup.</p> </div> </div><div class="flexinode-textarea-19"><div class="form-item"> </div> </div></div> </div> </div></div> David Thomas & Two Pale Boys Fri, 07 Apr 2006 18:55:52 +0100
