LONG HOURS - Wayward Serenades LP

Highly recommended.

"The cover features a topless Julian Medor on his back on what looks like a garage floor covered in oil, eating his necklace, mic in hand and eyes shut. Shades of Darby Crash, and Iggy Pop.

Which are pretty good introductory comparisons, though Long Hours don't sound much like Iggy (well, alright, maybe “A Ghost To You”), but perhaps a bit like The Germs. But that's where comparisons pretty much end.

"Long Hours is a solo performance project by artist and musician Julian Medor (I Am Duckeye!). Coined as being LoFi, NoWave, Synth Punk Croon-Core, GothDooWop with a relentless live show inspired by frontmen such as David Yow (The Jesus Lizard), JG Thirlwell (Foetus) and Alan Vega (Suicide), Long hours has performed up and down the East Coast of Australia countless times and has toured Japan twice. He has also released 27 albums in the space of three years. This LP, on blue with splattered black vinyl, is a compilation of songs selected from various self-produced albums all remixed and re-mastered at Creepy Hollow by Loki Lockwood and produced by Julian Medor." - I-94 Bar
