When you just can't take it anymore

WHEN YOU JUST CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE

No one becomes a musician to not be noticed. No one tries to write a song that sounds like wall paper. We know literally thousands of bands, songwriters and musicians who don't get "the Notice" even though they make rackets that are worth listening to. They jump right off of the wall to both tickle and strangle your eardrums and make you clap on the 1 and the 4.

This is why we're here - to bring you the music that gets lost in the genericana.

Spottiswoode & His Enemies: Wild Goosechase Expedition

This is pretty much the best band from New York City fronted by an Englishman that you're going to see and hear. The bastard child of Randy Newman, Elvis Costello and Tom Waits - he may not scale the heights of those giants but his work is better than what those guys are doing today in the 21st century.

While their previous disc "Salvation" is an inspiring collection, "Wild Goosechase Expedition" abandons any conceit of a concept and lets writer/singer Jonathan Spottiswoode put forth his moving/witty/tuneful songs aided and abetted by his adept His Enemies...as he has been for over a decade.
