Heather 04:16
I like Heather Heather likes me What ist the matter Love ain’t for free I like leather Heather wears heels I wear a feather One of our deals To sing songs for heather Won't help to forget her White boys in leather Should wear a feather We’re talking weather No topics left How could I ever get her She must be deaf No need to talk `though Grand body theft No need for elbows Here take my gift To sing songs for heather Won't help to forget her White boys in leather Should wear a feather Now that she’s gone I kinda miss her She’s been a good companion I won’t bewail my bitter fate here And I will smile away those tears

Redeem 04:25
I need to think less Much less to gain back control over whatever All these thoughts Drifting from my subconcious mind It is all the same No matter who I blame The spin doctor rules the game Some proxy wars attain the fame Gonna end up in ruthless pain How could I come up with that Where did I miss the turning Where is it gonna stop Yesterday my soul was burning I cannot sustain Need to be restrained Where did I miss the boat Help me to grow out of that coat I really need to drop that load I need to sink less Much less to gain back control over whatever All these drinks Dripping down my sour throat Who is there to blame For that doubtful fame The gin doctor rules the game Polytoxicomanic aim Gonna end up in ruthless pain Release me Redeem me

Well it felt like trouble A lot of insecurity Heaps of bubbles Filled with darjeeling tea Where did that come from It ocurred instantly Maybe I've just eaten nuff of that shit I don't need you to care S'läbe isch susch scho gnueg schwär But I need you to share 'Cause that's what it's all about these days, I like! Can you smell the fresh air I's only now that I'm aware Guess I have just eaten nuff of that shit Some get aggressive I doubt the effect I was really upset Then I turned rather sad Where will it lead me Probably to insanity 'Cause I have just eaten nuff of that shit Everything happens for a reason they say Shut the fuck up So what is this all about then?! Shut the fuck up I could as well just shut the fuck up Shut the fuck up And let it all come as it should Shut the fuck up But then again it's me, most importantly Shut the fuck up Look I have just eaten nuff of that shit Shut the fuck up I met this refugee In a vietnamese restaurant in Berlin Oberschöneweide He said he enjoyed his voyage He was full of hope So who am I to complain Who am I to complain! Even 'though I've eaten nuff of that shit # # # Wosch Mi Wosch mi, wosch mi Nei du wosch mi nid Kumm emol obenabe dasch doch gar nid gschiid Lueg emol wie du dich uffürsch Und alli Type uf de Tanzflächi a de Nase umeführsch I mein ok si sin ja gern debi Und sie kenned die Schpiili Aber ich bliib echli an der Bar bi mim Whiskey Kumm emol obenabe Kumm emol obenabe Kumm emol obenabe an rhy Nid littere, nid littere

Nuts Again 03:45
I am not satisfied What is your message there (who is the mutineer?!) I don't understand What are you trying to say (did I really get that right?!) Please give me a break here, I can't follow Do you really mean what you're saying Stop giving me bullshit Come on, not again You are all nuts again I will not accept None of that anymore (go tell it to the corner whore!) I do rather regret To have listened to you before (how come I thought there was more?) Hold on to that attitude, you'll get lonely I'm totally done here, don't you bother me Don't need no more bullshit Come on, not again You are all nuts again

Humble Me 05:09
I'm the most humble man that has ever been I'm so humble, much more than you Anyone can see Give me Champagne I'm sick of all that prosecco Why don’t you shove it up your ass My penthouse maisonette flat It has a skyline view But still I feel a little bit underrated From my Chesterfield armchair I can see you getting armed there Fuck me...and I feel alone Emily, come with me! Seriously! All the way down to Italy I don't have much But I have money Let me take you there Now it's time to fulfill wishes It's not what you guess Anything you like Don't be afraid You only gonna get laid I have to admit It’s radical, cynical, horrible And then so emotional Can't I just be passionate, inappropriate, I'm sick of it Stop telling me I am desperate And either way you are putting it It is you, it is me, or everyone else When it comes down to dust, your convictions You're better off not to bother too much Because it is so Delicate, you hypocrite, you're full of shit Whatever you got just deliver it! Emily, set me free, humble me Tie up my body on that apple tree

Good Moaning 04:57
Pussycat is moaning Like she's trying to say Gimme love Or at least some food I am lonely as fuck If you wanna come To the countryside To my house Where there's lots of mice We could have some good fun Chasing mice that would be nice now You say gurrrrrr and I say bow down There is no use moaning I'm impervious To your sounds No matter how obscure And how luring they are You rob me of my sleep I want to wring your neck Pay it back Sack you on the spot I have a bone to pick with you You say gurrrrrr and I say no now I won't feed you come what may miau I don't need that so please go now You say gurrrrrr and I say no now You're growing fat and fatter I can comprehend But in the end I mean look at you Don't you look at me like that When you're done mice slicing Let's go back downtown Simmer down Have a drink or two With the girls from Ipanema You took a leak on my blanket Just because you miss courtesy That is no way to behave No way to behave! Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh Meow

Am Arsch 02:52
This is it I completely lost track Seems like I have got a monkey on my back I got hit And I tried to neglect All I need to say lasts one more cigarette And again I have fucked it up so badly And I am regretting sadly Here I am Totally misled I miss you and I'm feeling fucking bad You have left And laced up your swag I'm surprised it did all fit in that plastic bag And again I have fucked it up so badly I am regretting sadly And I don't make it easy to be trusted I see your trust is busted I was on fire Full of desire In a state they should have wrapped me up in barbed wire I betrayed you As stupid as bad Please forgive me you're the best I ever met And again I have fucked it up so badly I am regretting sadly Once again I have fucked it up so badly But I'm not the only one

about

KONKORD proudly presents the Swiss-American formation Dave From Hollywood. Swiss natives Sebastian Bolli (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jonathan Gubler (guitar), Marco Nenniger (bass) and californian David Kerman (drums) are wading up to their ears in the dirty mud of the delta, deeply inhaling the haze of the blues to share their visions with us on their debut-release Wax A Hot One [Konkord 096].

The opening song Heather is a blues-rock smacker if there ever was one. Suborned by a caterwauling harp a slow but hard hitting groove is pounding our ears, acting as a steady bedrock for vocalist Sebastian Bolli aka Sebučki, who owns all known tools of his trade: he’s howling, crooning, croaking and preaching ... Jon Spencers ears’d sparkle with joy.

No doubt Mr. Spencer would like the sound of this recording, too. It’s raw straightness is owed to the live recording veteran and appraised austrian analog producer Thomas Pronai. It took Dave From Hollywood just one day to record their debut – fast paced and still hyped after nishing their rst austrian tour. The suction of the blues, the power of rock and the spirit of punk – it’s all here.

Shut The Fuck Up, another outstanding song, feels like riding a comfy magic carpet. At first. But don’t be misled: after an reassuring start the song cuts a sudden corner into a dark forest cobbled with magic mushrooms, leading to a – you’ve guessed it – freak out in a rout of cucarachas, surfin’ birds and whatever else you see when you see what you want to see.

A fair hint of unpredictability (or is it mania?) ranks first on Dave From Hollywoods to-be-list. A jazz trained upright bass player plucking hardrock tunes, a drummer uniting prog with punk, a guitarist who knows more tunes than a con artist knows excuses, and a singer who – like an ever-changing mephistopheles – is averse to playing his part, any part. You just can’t tie ’em down! And you’d be ill-advised if you tried. Sit back and rejoice instead. There are 8 damn good reasons on this album to do exactly that.

May your ears sparkle with joy, too.
