26 December 2000

SF Bay Area art/punk multi-instrumental quintet Thinking Fellers Union Local 282 release their first LP in five years this coming March, with a title that makes the band’s name sound short: Bob Dinners And Larry Noodles Present Tubby Turdner’s Celebrity Avalanche. Like their 1996 LP I Hope It Lands, the new one comes out on The Communion Label.
    (If you’re curious about the title, check out the conversation from this past April between band members Mark Davies and Hugh Swarts on the front page of the Communion Web site.)
    The enigmatic TFUL282 formed back in 1987 and have published their work on a variety of labels including Thwart (their own), Matador, Japan Overseas, Normal, Runt, and Communion. The new album includes 14 tracks: Another Clip, Sno Cone, You Will Be Eliminated, Holy Ghost, Everything’s Impossible, Birth Of A Rock Song, You In A Movie, Boob Feeler, In The Stars I Can Sizzle Like A Battery, El Cerrito, ’91 Dodge Van, Remindor, The Barker, and He Keeps Himself Fed.
    The seldom seen quintet has not yet announced a tour to support the new album, but we’ll post dates as soon as we get them. In the meantime, check out the hour long live performance video recorded this past January at Chicago’s Lounge Ax club, courtesy of the Supersphere Web site. | TFUL282 | | The Communion Label | | Lounge Ax, Jan 2000 (Real Video) | | bio | | discography | | top of page |
