Hello, friends. This here is a big deal. Here is the free leading single from Ben Parker’s Superman Revenge Squad Band, taken from their upcoming album “There Is Nothing More Frightening Than The Passing Of Time” – limited to 140 copies and as inexpensive as we could possibly make it. It’s a genuine thrill to re-welcome Ben and Adam Parker to the Audio Antihero fold, having started this label pretty much exclusively as a vehicle to get the ‘lost’ Nosferatu D2 album (AAH001) released and celebrated, it feels RIGHT to mark AAH010 with the recorded return of these two and a bunch of their friends.
If you’ve followed the work of Superman Revenge Squad then you’ll know the joys of his minimal instrumentation and his inimitable wit and vocal presence…but this Big Band expansion is likely very new to you indeed. Packed full of guitar, drums, saxophone, accordion, piano and cello, these recording sessions (recorded in Croydon, of course) provide a wonderfully vast and varied canvas for Parker’s beautiful, observational, nostalgic, abstract and often stream-of-conscious lyrical narratives. You’ll enjoy it.
I am very pleased and proud to be able to call a Superman Revenge Squad release one my own and come the release date, I think you’ll be able to see why too.
