Count Vaseline - Tales From The Megaplex (CD)

Saustex Records is pleased to announce the release Tales from the Megaplex by Count Vaseline (aka Stefan Murphy). Murphy is known for the work of his previous act - the semi-eponymously named, Dublin-based band The Mighty Stef. After touching the ground long enough to briefly call Berlin home, Murphy is now based in the Southern US metropolis of Atlanta, Georgia. What you hear in Count Vaseline's songs is the deadpan rage of The Fall, the caustic hustle of the Velvet Underground, the simmering sex of T-Rex and the druggy 4am dance vibe of Love & Rockets - all of this filtered through his snarky and irreverent lyrical lens. This blast of proto-post-punk includes the hits 'Hail Hail John Cale' and 'What Is Your Name, Where Are Your From, What Are You On?' The LP component is pressed on 140 gram black vinyl.
