These Immortal Souls - Get Lost (Don't Lie!)

These Immortal Souls were: Rowland S. Howard (Boys Next Door, Birthday Party, Crime and the City Solution), his brother Harry (C&TCS), Epic Soundtracks (C&TCS, Swell Maps, Jacobites) and Rowland's wife Genevieve McGuckin. They played a blues drenched, elegant and atmospheric brand of post punk strongly informed by Southern Gothic writings and general aura of loss and bleakness. This is their first album, a lost classic.

    Yes he did, he played some nasty guitar on the great Honeymoon in Red LP and also did the Shotgun Wedding LP with Lydia. I'll post them both soon.
