Two Lone Swordsmen - "From the Double Gone Chapel"

This is Andy Weatherall's "band".  You might recognize his name from producing credits on Primal Scream's "Screamadelica" (and half of "Evil Heat"), and a shit load of remixes.  When we toured with The Scream a couple years ago, homeboy would DJ in between the bands.  He'd drink a bottle of cognac and spin "Abba Zabba" by Captain Beefheart and "Love Buzz" by Shocking Blue pretty much every night, not to mention tons of other rad shit I'd never heard of, it was awesome.  "From the Double Gone Chapel" tastefully blends electronica with rock n' roll that's influenced by the likes of The Cramps, Public Image Limited, Joy Division & The Gun Club.  They even cover The Gun Club's "Sex Beat".  It just don't get much cooler than that.  Here's my two favorite jams.  I guess they just put out an EP that's good too... but I don't got that shit yet.  Two Lone Swordsmen website: http://www.twoloneswordsmen.com/

Yeah we were... but we left them about four months ago. Which is why you can't find our new shit in stores yet. We're still figuring out who we're gonna go with, but it'll be sort in a week or two from the looks of things.

Glad you dig this.

I have a new favorite band.

Although the last Lp and Ep by Two Lone Swordmen are quite good ("sick when we kiss" rocks), they are nothing compared to the futurist electro they did on their two previous albums. They were incredibly exciting as they came out.

Not to mention "haunted dancehall" by Sabres of Paradise: as classic and sick as it gets.
