The time has finally come after eleven years of waiting, a new Doctor Explosion album! The suggestive and incisive title of 'Moral Superiority' is a superlative job.Would one call Superioridad Moral a mature record? That's a complicated term to associate with Doctor Explosion. Still, this album is sure that it shows Jorge and his band playing at a high caliber level. They keep their punk and garage attitude but unfold a thousand more nuances in this album solid riffs, psychedelic atmospheres, anthological lyrics, and superb arrangements. You can't just tag Superioridad Moral as simply 'a garage album'; it was written and arranged without that intent. It is an encyclopedia of the best rock music in which huge songs follow one another. A brilliant record about maturity written by pathologically immature folks? Yeah, that sounds about right.Superioridad Moral was recorded and mixed in the legendary Circo Perrotti studios of Gijon and by the usual procedure analogically, on tape, using all kinds of old-fashioned machines, but sounding real, direct, and, therefore, in your face. Mastered by Frank Arkwright (production credits on New Order, The Smiths, Joy Division, Oasis, Arcade Fire, among others) at the legendary Abbey Road Studios. Not too bad
Dan Melchior has been creating his own unique take on lo-fi pop/garage rock and American roots music for close over two decades. He has recorded over 35 records as a solo performer, as a collaborator with Billy Childish and Graham Lambkin and more notably with his band Dan Melchior's Broke Revue. He has also released several records with his post Broke Revue band, Dan Melchior un Das Menace. Dan's latest LP comes courtesy of his newest group Dan Melchior Band. Outside In is 8 tracks of distortion-drenched, fuzzed up rhythm and blues and rock and roll. While Dan's distinctive vocals and guitar playing are the cornerstone of the group's sound, the entire album is awash in a sea of unspooling riffs and hooks moving from heavy locked in bass grooves to distorted synth freakouts. In the words of Steve Lowenthal InchDan Melchior is an anomaly in the modern music world, even for the underground. As one of the world's last truly great songwriters... His music cannot be neatly partitioned into a narrow genre although one can detect elements of blues, vintage R&B, British psych pop and more recently brazen experimentalism.Inch
