New album by the successful duo Steve Kilbey (The Church) and Martin Kennedy Interest and profile of Steve Kilbey has been raised considerably over the past year due to the church re-forming touring and issuing 2 new albums Steve’s solo albums are all getting a complete make over  and the fan clubs are ablaze with rumours and gossips regarding forthcoming releases.

Reviews & Advertising  in vive le rock  record collector classic rock R2 The Big Takeover. Embark on a mesmerising journey with the third and culminating chapter of the highly acclaimed trilogy by Steve Kilbey and Martin Kennedy. Building on the success of Jupiter 13 (2021) and The Strange Life of Persephone Nimbus (2022), their latest epic, 'Premonition K,' unveils a sumptuous and organic

sonic landscape, delving into the dark and enigmatic realms that exist between the boundaries of life and death. This album, a testament to their musical synergy, encapsulates a darkly beautiful soundscape, drawing inspiration from diverse sources, ranging from the haunting tones of Roger Waters' Final Cut to the shadowy depths explored by early 1970s Black Sabbath. Steve Kilbey, best known as frontman of legendary Aussie post-prog rockers The Church, infuses each track with an emotional resonance and sense of mystery.

Martin Kennedy co-pilots this sonic odyssey with Steve Kilbey, weaving an intricate musical bed for Kilbey's lyrical dreamings. Drawing from his twenty years of soundscaping with All India Radio, Kennedy adds layers of sonic complexity, at once warmly familiar and mysteriously strange, creating an immersive experience for the listener. Together, Kilbey and Kennedy invite you to break out the ouija board, turn off the lights, and immerse yourself in the mysteries of 'Premonition K'.

Recorded Live at the 2008 Meltdown Festival at the Royal Albert hall, London.

Never before had the Meltdown banner seemed more suitable than on the night of June 24, 2008, when Primal Scream shared a bill with the MC5 at the much-revered event held annually at the Royal Festival Hall.   The festival has seen many strange, unique and wonderful events, but few as incendiary, or even historic, as the fusion of Primal Scream & the MC5.

Maybe surprisingly, this was at the behest of Massive Attack, Bristol's uncompromising slow-mo dub-charged colossus who curated this event. Michael admits to being bowled over to discover the Primal Scream's support for his old band, but was shocked when Massive Attack requested their appearance in their Meltdown line-up. 'It is so cool that the Massive Attack guys even know who we are. I'm a fan of theirs too, so I guess that for me it makes perfect sense. They are true originals, and really creative. I am honoured that they would have us!'

For many, it was a dream match, not least for Primal Scream, who have made no secret of their devotion to the Detroit demons since day one.  'I never thought I'd even see them play live,' reflects Bobby. 'I used to take magic mushrooms or acid and listen to the MC5, imagining that I was in the Grande Ballroom. Then, here we are [40 years later] up on a stage playing with them. I found a ticket from that gig the other day while I was clearing out some cupboards, and started thinking about it. It was amazing...' To the Scream's delight, the feeling turned out to be mutual, bassist Michael Davis stating, 'The Primals tear it up. I was really proud that they wanted us.'

Primal Scream pile into the likes of 'Accelerator'  & 'Miss Lucifer', before a stretch of new songs including bell-strewn title track, 'Suicide Bomb, mesmerizingly atmospheric 'Uptown' and gorgeously melancholic 'Beautiful Summer', augmented by Melanie Draisey's poignant violin.  A pummelling  'Kowalski' gets the crown on their feet, before the cathartic motoric of  'Shoot Speed Kill Light' & surging sirens of 'Swastika Eyes'. Davis, Wayne Kramer and drummer Dennis 'Machine Gun' Thompson were joined by second guitarist Adam Pearson and singer William DuVall from Alice In Chains.   Cutting a dapper figure with his stars 'n' stripes guitar, Kramer's first opening salvo kicks off 'Ramblin' Rose'. 

He is the consummate showman, strutting and interacting with the front rows. Thompson looks like he's about to pulp his kit, but exhibits that effortless fingertip-powerhouse style.  These songs sound tracked America's punk-predating political counter culture: 'Kick Out The Jams', 'Come Together', 'Motor City Is Burning' plus Back In The USA highlights including 'Call Me Animal' and 'American Ruse'. Scream fave 'Sister Anne', from third album High Time, follows next, Kramer's harmonica replacing the original's brass. Duvall makes a charismatic natural to front them. Like the Scream, the Five have got to the point where their spirit lives larger than the human beings who still carry it.  

Then a collective shudder of delight ripples through the crowd as two singers, four guitarists, two bassists, two drummers and a piano-player look at each other and, after Bobby has referenced Jim Morrison's 'Is everybody in?' The ceremony is about to begin', kick into the blazing garage crank of early Five song 'I Can Only Give You Everything'.

Primal Scream's locomotive 'Skull X' and a 'Movin' On Up' swell into one glorious, spine-tingling testimonial, with the whole hall singing and going crazy.  'I've been waiting 25 years for this,' declares Andrew Innes. This was more than just token encore jamming, when like minds clamber up and plug in, the connection is made! -Kris Needs.
