The new REID PALEY TRIO album APPROXIMATE HELLHOUND is here. Bluesy, jazzy, Rock Noir with a swing all it's own. Belted out with a pitch-black sense of humor and an alarming eloquence by Brooklyn’s apocalyptically original barroom troubadour and his killer trio. Think: Screamin' Jay, Sam Beckett, and a seemingly limitless capacity for laughing in the face of life's unrelenting ugliness. APPROXIMATE HELLHOUND is like the voices in your head at 4 am. If they had a sense of humor. And you could shake your ass to them. Featuring the animal magnetism and frightening charisma of Mr. Eric Eble on the Czechoslovakian upright bass, and Mr. James Murray working that trap kit. And Paley continues to beat the living hell out of his ‘55 Gretsch. REID PALEY is also the co-writer with FRANK BLACK of (among others) "Don't Get Me Wrong" (Christmass), "I'm Not Dead (I'm In Pittsburgh)", "Golden Shore", "Dog Sleep", "Down To You" (Fast Man Raider Man), "Another Velvet Nightmare" (Honeycomb). REID PALEY TRIO has torn up stages all over the damn place, and was featured at this past year’s Vienna Feswochen/Into The City Festival in Vienna Austria, with special guest Eric Drew Feldman on the keys. *************************************** "One of America's best -- and most underrated -- songwriters." -- PopMatters "A voice to turn good girls bad...Maybe crazy but damn exciting." --The Village Voice “The bastard child of Sinatra and Lemmy. Epic, minimalist rock tunes with that end
