AFS v. 166 introducing new Hospitals, Lili Z., Cheveu, & more!

I'm very excited to unleash some special debuts on you this week, including a world exclusive sneakpeek from the next Hospitals album, Hairdryer Peace, which is surely the weirdest and possibly the greatest thing you've heard from them yet. Gone are much of the excessively reverbed vocals, and while part of this record sounds like it was recorded in an airplane hangar just like I've Visited the Island of Jocks & Jazz, a few of the more startling moments sound like they were recorded right inside the jet engine! Yet, there's a lot more pure pop brilliance brimming from Adam Stonehouse's mind on this third album. There's even cute and clever lyrics with unprecedented ungarbledness, but it's certainly not a sell-out. Times New Viking made a big splash when they woke the dormant Siltbreeze label. Could this Hospitals album wake up ESP-Disk? It surely does have some Fugs- and Godz-like moments! Test-presses are due back soon, so stay patient!
