Also hopefully on the horizon for Tim Malley-related music is the Cornslaw Industries debut of another of Tim’s bands, The Whiskey Dicks who were previously featured in the Cornslaw video Shed: The Movie.

Aided by the BabelFish, here is some nice things a man/boy/woman/girl typed in Russian on his/her LiveJournal blog. Please keep in mid that these a robotic translations.

Songs About Girls:

It is difficult to describe unambiguously the music of Jaffe completed under the very skillful synthesizer: here much both from the baroque- priest and from the [semidesyatnicheskoy] stage, and on the quality this typical bedroom-[folk]. However, Jaffe excuses that the fact that song for this pseudo-conceptual album, dedicated, as can be seen from names, to girls, he wrote even into the 90th on very imperfect the technology of those days. These songs are interesting, it is however strange, not only as the artifact of epoch, but, of course, they became obsolete. However, they are likable, and Jaffe hardly relied on larger. 4/5

Songs About Boys:

On second [relize] of Jaffe it became the victim of its own concept – it is however, so constantly: attempting to support idea, he wrote down ” song against [malchikakh]” , but already even cover reflects, that the quality of material here nothing of the kind, and amorous to it relation is insufficient. Certainly, record was made approximately in the same period, but this does not justify quality and monotony of material. Especially one ought to note that [leybl] Of cornslaw Of industrie, perfectly well understanding the weakness of album, for long was not solved it to let out. 3/5

available now!

To tide us all over for a couple days, we have a single song from Mr. Philly Fiction himself, Chris Munden called “It Ain’t Wrong.” The song can be found on his Cornslaw page, but be sure to check out the recently released Philly Fiction 2.

In the coming couple weeks, Cornslaw will present the following new releases:

• CS0909 – 1000000 a.d. – Dedication to John Howard Knee (Aug ‘09)
  • With basic tracks recorded by eThrice, Niloc, and CP in December ‘08 and interpreted and imagined by eThrice in the months following.
• CS0910 – National RocKombo – Johnson, Navin R. (Aug ‘09)
  • A, dare we say, classic 90s indie rock EP from a fantastic little Portand combo.

• CS0911 – The Cyanide Tamales – Around the Cat in 80 Days (Aug ‘09)
  • One of the greatest things to come out of Bucks County in the early 1990s.
• CS0912 – Wards of the Mayor – Haunts Around May Star (hopefully Aug ‘09, although we are still mixing this one)
  • A new neo-prog recording by a bunch of grad students who should be doing other things right now.
• CS0913 – Mill Run Band – Bowmins’s Connect (Aug ‘09)
• CS0914 – Mill Run Band – Celebration Tale of the River Road (Aug ‘09)
  • The last two of the trilogy-plus-one releases by Michael’s Mill Run Band
• CS0915 – The Makeshifters – Solid Gold Plated Love (Aug ‘09)
  • Mid-90s Morgantown funky party band’s only official release.

Then, coming in September, more music including (we promise) the Weird Al tribute album (more like a long EP) and a few other surprises.

Also, the first release from Uncle Nicky Records, a split seven inch with Mason Porter and Chris Kasper, is finished. We have not worked out our eStore yet (we have always been in the business of no business), but when we do it’ll be available at unclenickyrecords.com. Until then, go to see Mason Porter or Chris Kasper live and pick one up from them.

We will continue with our release schedule after we get settled, including the Wards of the Mayor EP, a new 1000000 a.d. album, the debut of Dance You Monster to my Soft Song, and the digital rerelease of an old high school favorite of ours (if all goes well).

See ya in later July/early August 2009!

New releases:

CS0907 – Pilot Meets Stars – Mill Run Band
Pilot Meets Stars is Mill Run Band’s second release, originally released in 1997 on Rockadelic Records. It is a brilliant example of early bedroom four tracking psychedelic pop and the second collection by Mill Run Band to be added to Cornslaw. It is also Cornslaw Industries’ 51st release!  

CS0906 – Dr. Peace – Jaffé
Dr. Peace cannot talk with you right now, he is in a business meeting. To have known Jaffé in the 1990s was to know his collection of self-created phrases mixed seamlessly with a bizarre array of film references. “Dr. Peace” is, along with The Turtleneck Anomoly, a materialization of several of these phrases.

CS0905 – The Turtleneck Anomoly – Jaffé
The second of two instances in which Jaffé’s misspelling was embraced and given new meaning (The Dewback Anomoly being the other). The Turtleneck Anomoly is a collection of film dialog, minimalist re-scoring music, and several of Dewback and Jaffé’s original compositions re-imagined as greater whole. Songs include Dewback’s “The Final One” and Jaffé’s “Dr. Peace.”

CS0904 – Skelebundles – Skelebundles
For our fourth release of this relaunch, we turn our attentions to a short experimental piece from two members of the Cornslaw Industries family moonlighting as Skelebundles. Skelebundles is the name of the song, the album, and the artist(s). 

CS0903 – Prog – The Grossly Misjudged Collective Works of Barry’s Listening
Barry may be “no more,” but before he left us, he left us with this final collection of unfinished material. It was hoped that others would help us finish the songs, but that never happened. Lyrics (and even vocal recordings of those lyrics) exist, but this is the album as Barry left it before his bizarre, tragic, and heroic death in the Summer of 2008.

CS0902 – Scuffed Tims – Mind Lucent
Mind Lucent is the first hip hop artist to join the Cornslaw Industries family and we couldn’t be happier to welcome him. Scuffed Tims is a highly developed and sophisticated collection of songs and Mind Lucent is an extremely talented MC and producer. We need to step up our game… Lucent has raised the bar. 

CS0901 – On My Lap – Vertinsky Dogs
The Vertinsky Dogs are our first Russian artists and our first truly international artists (Tyler Kinney is not actually Canadian and our British artists have yet to produce their promised albums). We don’t understand most of the lyrics on On My Lap, but the music and melodies are great. A raw and honest album, On My Lap is really an interesting listen and we hope to one day get to meet these guys in person.

In preparation for the official relaunch date, April 24, we have three big-ish announcements. April 24 is the official relaunch date only in the sense that the first new release will go live on that day. See number two for more.

1. We launched a record label. It is called Uncle Nicky Records. The focus of the label, in almost direct opposition to the mission of Cornslaw dot net, will be one the production of limited edition vinyl and other physical media. A concentration on production, packaging, design, and intent seems to magnify its balance with Cornslaw’s quick, liberal, and widespread approach to media production and distribution. More information at Uncle Nicky Records dot com. The label’s first release will be a split 7-inch with Mason Porter and Chris Kasper (limited to 300).

2. We have nearly a dozen releases that will be coming out daily beginning at the end of the month. We are trying to release an album a day for two weeks. We will still consider your music (or submission to the Weird Al comp). Send it to us. (The release schedule will also include much-anticipated Weird Al Ruined My Life tribute and …Barry’s Listening’s Prog album).

3. I could have sworn I had three when I began this post. Maybe not…

More in the near (actual near) future.
