My god, how have I not listened to this guy until now? I've been really into flying nun for a couple years now, but never really liked The Clean too much so I didn't bother to check out Kilgour's solo stuff. It's way more summery and psychedelic than anything else from that label. Sugar Mouth and Here Come the Cars are easily the coolest records I've heard from the early 90s.

Damn right. So looking forward to seeing him Saturday.

Here Come the Cars is an alltime album f'sure

really is great. just heard hamish's new one too -- equally good.

tylerw, Thursday, 31 July 2014 17:51 (nine years ago) link

Oh really? Does Hamish sing? Is it like a variation on The Clean?

Gerald McBoing-Boing, Thursday, 31 July 2014 21:10 (nine years ago) link

yeah, this is his first "solo" recrod, but he's been doing his own stuff as Mad Scene for a while now. Worth checking out!
Here's a track from his new one: https://soundcloud.com/badabingrecords/hamish-kilgour-crazy-radiance/s-Tu4e3

four weeks pass...

yeah, this is really nice.

i've never listened to kilgour/the clean either, i dunno what it was, something about NZ music has always seemed kinda indistinct when i've checked it out in general, never sussed out a way in.

Man, the Christopher Columbus-Crow-Dropper sequence is a damn fine stretch of rock and roll, damn fine.

Not sure if it's been mentioned elsewhere, but Hamish Kilgour's put out his first solo album on Ba Da Bing.

Yeah I need to check that out. I was reading an article about him just recently

Oops, had been mentioned by tylerw a few posts above me; shouldn't post when I'm that sleep-deprived.

The previous one, "Falling Debris", is really nice. Listening now, I had forgotten this gem.
