Deadlands’ self-titled debut album, Deadlands, is the result of six months of Thursdays and the occasional Friday night. This is very much a rock and roll record. One foot firmly entrenched in murder ballad blues and the other dangling off the top of a burning office building; Deadlands weaves third person tales of deceit, insanity, and betrayal. And guess what? The guy always dies at the end. Always.

This release collects fifteen tracks recorded from 1991-1993. Backwash formed from the ashes of Collision Service and Two Guys And Another Guy in 1988. The band recorded a 7″ record in 1991 as well as their only album, the 6-song Approaching Joe’s Mangos, which was released in 1993. The band broke up in 1994 when bassist George Sullivan left the band. The other three members – Jack McKenna, Jon Jones, and Pete Burr – added a new bass player soon after and formed Mother Jefferson. The members continue to be active in various Providence-based musical projects.

Pure power pop for aging effete moderns, rock oracle von Doom erupts onto the 21st century’s late first decade rock scene with sonic aplomb. Their debut disc, aptly titled The Universe is a mix of aesthetics, Latin roots, the state of the art, and psychedelic effrontery. Navigating the treacherous void surrounding us all, von Doom’s requiem for humanity floats above the fray, all the while forging a path straight through your ear-fields.
