CONWAY HALL

DISPOSBLE ROCK+ROLL
Pull of Love/Erosion is the official follow-up to Conway Hall’s critically-acclaimed debut Redundant Music. That record brought the London-based group a dedicated following across the globe (especially in South America where they recently finished a tour). Considering that early copies of Redundant Music were given away to friends just a few years ago, this is not only quite a leap, but a well-deserved one.
Death Pop Records, says: “Conway Hall are the great new English rock and roll group. Dirty, beautiful and unafraid. They draw inspiration from English folk, punk rock and smooth American soul – and suffer not a jot in comparison. Death Pop is proud to be able to bring you this important release.”

REVIEWS

“More perfectly-honed spiky-pop-platter-fodder from the much loved DEATH POP imprint whose previously outings courtesy of wax turn-ons from the likes of THE TEETH, THE SWANKERS, ATOMIC SUPLEX, THE VINYL STITCHES et al have all been lapped up in the this here ‘Singled Out’ shed of sound. Add to that enviable list if you will trio CONWAY HALL whose rather spanking head-urning turntable twin-set may just have a fair few of you panting and straining at the leash for more in the near future. Taking a sizeable leaf from THE TEETH, CONWAY HALL’s ‘Pull Of Love’ has to be up there as one of the slinkiest things we’ve heard in a fair old while. A pulsing purring slice of uber-cooled and off-centred lights-dimmed and smoked floor mooching funkiness that manages to cut a delicious dash between being subtly-skewed and wanton for a spot of discordance, horny and just a tad bit decadent in a right side of the sleazy marker. By far the best thing we’ve heard around these parts since THE WEREWOLVESs and GOLD CASH GOLD, these crafty chaps blend the boundaries between THE MODERN LOVERS, JAD FAIR and mid 70’s STONES with just a dash of PAVEMENT for seasoning – well chilled. Flip the disc for the ear candy effervescence of the rather slinky ‘Erosion’ – a kind of time warped west coast bad trip that really ought to come with its own 60’s beat grooved teen flick and trendy boutique and which frankly is the kind of fried power pop sound you’d imagine rumbling through the monitors had THE FALL or more appropriately THE MONKS, the occasion to shimmy up alongside THE RASPBERRIES. Limited to just 500 copies and by rights selling by the shed load – if not questions replete with menacing long face will be asked.”
LOSINGTODAY

“Garage rock will never die as long as tweakers like Conway Hall keep putting out singles like this. On one side, the singer sounds all tripped out and distressed about an angel stealing his car. The other side is pure Mersybeat with a castrated Captain Beefheart bit in the middle.”
