Corruption. Paranoia. Blackmail. A circle of violence and retribution. A tangled web of deception and fear. The inescapable tentacles of the underworld. Bloody debts settled. Betrayers betrayed. Vengeance comes calling, when the law is not enough… 15 years on from their shadowy formation in deepest, darkest Cambridgeshire, England, Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats stand alone. As one of the most idiosyncratic and eccentric bands ever to emerge from the post-Sabbathian realm, Kevin Starrs’ enigmatic crew have built a reputation on music that defies categorisation. With a sound that has variously plundered from classic doom, psychedelia, garage rock and underground, occult heaviness, they have consistently evolved and mutated, with invariably gripping results. Now they have returned with an ambitious colossus of a new record: NELL’ ORA BLU. A fully-fledged, cinematic feast, partly inspired by the dark magic of Italy’s Giallo film movement, but drawn directly from Starrs’ own foul and fearless imagination, the new album is entirely unlike anything the band have done before. Peppered with exclusively recorded dialogue from giants of the Italian celluloid underground (including Franco Nero and Edwige Fenech), and brimming with perverse and unprecedented musical detours, NELL’ ORA BLU expands the world that Uncle Acid first spawned all those years ago, and presents an entirely unique listening experience that throbs and shrieks with horrific intent.Upcoming on Showout
