"We filmed the ‘Mother of Earth’ film clip in London whilst Dave Gahan was in town for Depeche Mode's ‘Momento Mori’ World Tour.

Left to right: Ian White, Dave Gahan, Suzie Stapleton, James Johnston, Gavin Jay - A dream line up.

Of course we couldn’t have done it without the rest of the crew - massive shout out to Dan Cox at Urchin Studios for mixing this track, Adrian Hierholzer for recording Dave’s vocals & guitar in NY, Matt Hopkins for his incredible cinematography for the film clip, and Jason Bick for helping out with the shoot.

"Mother of Earth" will appear on The Jeffrey Lee Pierce Sessions Project's 4th album "The Task Has Overwhelmed Us" out September 29th on Glitterhouse Records.

237: Various Artists // Howl...A Farewell Compilation of Unreleased Songs

Howl...A Farewell Compilation of Unreleased Songs Various Artists 1994, Glitterhouse

Released in 1994 by German indie label Glitterhouse as a double 10”, Howl…A Farewell Compilation of Unreleased Songs collects 18 songs by a real odds and sods assortment of Americana, indie folk, and alt. country acts. I’m not super-familiar with Glitterhouse beyond the fact that they were Sub-Pop’s European distributor during that label’s 1987 to 1995 grunge apex. The patchy history recounted on the Glitterhouse website indicates they were making a turn towards singer-songwriter fare at the time the Sub-Pop relationship petered out, and I can imagine this comp serving as a sort of soft launch of the label’s new direction. I’m not sure how many of these artists were signed to the label directly, though presumably Glitterhouse distro’d a number of them. Iin any case, it makes for a great sampler of some of the better artists of the time who operated at the meeting place of roots and alternative music, many of them still active today, and mostly still lesser-known outside of connoisseur circles.

The best-known act on the comp today is easily the Mountain Goats, which I doubt anyone would’ve predicted in 1994—their contribution, “Against Agamemnon,” is typical of John Darnielle’s early direct-to-boombox sound, a bare sketch that refers obliquely to Greek mythology but could as easily describe waking up with a nosebleed on an existential camping trip. Steve Wynn (ex-Dream Syndicate) pops up in the midst of his wandering ‘90s period, and we’ve also got a desert jazz instrumental version of “Route 66” from the venerable Giant Sand, which anticipates the sound members John Covertino and Joey Burns would refine after departing to form Calexico. The next tier of notability down would be… I guess Vic Chesnutt, the devastating Georgian songwriter who offers a moving cover of Yoko Ono’s “Goodbye Sadness”; long-running heartland groovers the Silos (featuring Vulgar Boatmen founder Walter Salas-Humara) with the demo “Nothing But You”; alt. country forerunners Freakwater with their woozy “Lullaby”; and venerated songwriter Victoria Williams, who unfortunately contributes an irritating rendition of “Feed the Birds” from Mary Poppins.

Howl doesn’t transcend its times, but if you like this era of weird Americana, it makes for good company. You’ll likely pick up a band or five who’ve slipped your filter that you’ll want to check out (my pick being Chicago’s Souled American, whose woeful “Suitor’s Bridge” would see eventual re-release on their final record Notes Campfire).

Cinematic is definitely a term you could use to describe Ed Fraser’s noise-rock outfit HEADS., though perhaps the style of cinema would be more unnerving and tense, leaning toward horror and the you-don’t-wanna-know sides of life. When we reviewed their latest record ‘Push’ (out via Glitterhouse Records), we suggested that at times it can stir up “a cocktail of…
