Jealous Butcher
GERALDINE FIBBERS - Lost Somewhere Between The Earth And My Home 2LP
$53.95
Deluxe double LP.
First time on vinyl. Limited clear vinyl.
Four bonus tracks, three of which feature Nels Cline.
Highly recommended by Strangeworld.
The band for this record was Bill Tutton (contra-bass), Kevin Fitzgerald (drums), Daniel Keenan (guitar), Jesse Greene (violin) and Carla Bozulich (vox, guitar). Four bonus tracks include Nels Cline (in an alt-cover of Can’s “You Doo Right,” for example) and Jessica Moss (Silver Mount Zion) playing on a brand new Fibbers track. “Thank You For Giving Me Life.” Minutemen and / or Pettibon fans, the lyrics of this track will ring bells!
There are so many “genders.” Many of her lyrics, in Bozulich’s mind, are written and sung by a man or a genderless creature, just saying what has to be said. Girl bands are a great statement against misogyny in rock and roll, but it turned out that playing with the Fibbers, consisting of random gendered humans who strongly opposed discrimination, was also a beautiful solution—to simply play with the best musicians she knows, drawn together by pure musical magnetism and wanting to be soaked in underground madness and beauty.
Lost Somewhere Between The Earth And My Home was recorded by Steve Fisk (Nirvana, Unwound, Beat Happening) and released in 1995. It is, in turns, tempestuous and tender. Classic country wraps up with noise, a crack-band and a singular voice mix like a twisted, American journey.
