Wolf People - October Fires

October Fires by Wolf People

4...according to our on Wed 10 Oct, 2007.

Wolf People have a 7" called 'October Fires' which starts off sounding like Captain Beefheart before it lunges into some more weird psych acid pop territory. One for you Finders Keepers fans.... I can even imagine folks who like The Bees liking this. It's very authentic sounding 60's psych rock/ pop gear.... fantastic.

Behold Wolf People! The Blues-tinged acid-fried psych outfit, centred around obsessive  purveyor of counter culture Jack Sharp, present this homemade, handcrafted stomper.The result of a penchant for vintage recording techniques and an experiment to see how loud you can record onto a 1960s Grundig home tape recorder before it becomes unlistenable.Over the past year the psychedelic Wolf People commune has welcomed a host of collaborators, including Tom Hubmann (The Midnight Orchestra) and Marissa Straccia (The Lady Wolf), as well as Jack’s own Mum and Dad on tin whistle and blues harp respectively. Months of painstaking experimentation and a burgeoning live schedule have seen Jack shrink the ranks to just a core of four members, with Gabriel Lloret, Tom Watt, and Joe Hollick making up the numbers.This strictly limited vinyl only release is the debut release from Battered Ornaments Records, an independent label headed by Doug Shipton (Finders Keepers / Delay 68) with a DIY aesthetic producing lovingly made, limited 7” vinyl runs of off-kilter independent music housed in jaw dropping sleeves created by top artists and graphic designers, including Luke Insect (www.insect.co.uk), Tim Watkins (The Bees / Gorillaz), Andy Votel (Badly Drawn Boy / Twisted Nerve) and Pete Fowler (Super Furry Animals / Magic Numbers) amongst others.
