September 28th 2005 Toolshed Album Cover Here's the cover of the forthcoming Toolshed album - to be released on double-vinyl, with a CD version of the album also included inside, via Twisted Nerve records:
The return of one of the most exciting acts that Twisted Nerve Records has ever had the pleasure of releasing records by. In a similar vein to 2003's Toolshed EP, by turns sinister, pulsating, throbbing, foreboding and uplifting, Toolshed's self-titled debut LPis like nothing you've ever heard before - with knobs on. Call it Komiche-freakout-spacerock, call it avant-freejazz-opera, call it what you want, but one thing that it most certainly is not is music to have on in the background.
Release date: 28th November 2005 Catalogue Number: TN066 Format: 2xLP (with Free CD of the album) |

August 21st 2005 Toolshed to appear at Portugal's Imago Filmfest on Friday 7th October 2005
Toolshed will be appearing at the Imago Filmfest in Fundão, Portugal on Friday 7th October 2005. "TOOLSHED (W/ MALCOLM MOONEY) + VERY SPECIAL GUEST This is Graham Massey’s kraut rock project. Massey was 808 State, Biting Tongue or Homelife’s key member, and is a well-respected producer of, for instance, Björk’s “Post”. At Toolshed, Massey gathers some friends with the same taste for semi-controlled organic experimentalism: Paddy Steer (Homelife), Dick Harrison (Spaceheads), Graham Clark (jazz connected violinist), James Ford (Simian) e Seaming To on vocals . At IMAGO, Toolshed will be on stage with Malcolm Mooney, Can’s original singer, to play five pieces specially made to five extracts from cult classics, including Vera Chytilova’s “Daisies” and Shuji Terayama’s “Emperor Tomato Ketchup”. Make no mistake about it, folks: these are real legends from Manchester’s music scene and will be at Fundão with a very special guest, yet to be revealed. " |

March 3rd 2005 New Homelife live dates Homelife (featuring Graham Massey) are playing a couple of dates within the UK in April/May. "Homelife, now signed to Ninja Tune, have recently completed remixes for Beck (at his personal behest), make a welcome return to the Brewery after their original visit left the audience jaws on the floor. Led by Paddy Steer (Yargo, Lionrock) the Homelife releases have all been recorded in Paddy’s bedroom studio with contributions emailed in from around the globe to create a truly original international sound. With influences ranging from Dub, Electronica, Ambient and World beats and featuring Seaming To on vocals, Graham Massey (808 state) on saxophones and other electronically modified wind instruments, Tony Burnside (Yargo) on guitar and Faron Brooks of Vancouver on male vocals, Homelife makes a noise like no other. The band line-up varies but generally the live show involves some 8 multi-instrumentalists on a twisted journey to the very heart of bedroom club culture and beyond." Catch them at :
