DESCRIPTION

Goner Records is proud to release City of Rotten Eyes, the debut from Jackson, Mississippi's Overnight Lows. It's about time. Marsh and Daphne Nabors, guitar and bass, have been playing out as Overnight Lows ever since their previous band, The Comas, imploded in early1995. Goner and many other labels have badgered them to record for years. Their reluctance to release anything until now reflects both their disdain for musical trends and their quest for a recording worthy of their sound. With City of Rotten Eyes, they've achieved it.Playing everything 'in the key of Hep C,' the Overnight Lows mix a sick and sickened attitude with a classic Angry Samoans / Queersaesthetic: establish a blazing guitar riff, yell some memorable antisocial blather over it, hit a chorus, and get out. Who has time for anythingelse these days? Overnight Lows aren't going to waste your time attempting to show you the path to enlightenment or the way to your lover's heart. They'd rather show you the door. Melodies? Sure, kinda,but more like rhythmic chants to accompany you on your third tripback to the liquor store. The male / female vocal trade-offs add to the bands desperate charm.Marsh and Daphne are backed by chef Paul Artigues from NewOrleans Die Rotzz, a batterer of both drums and food. Artigues blew Guy Fieri's mind with his boudin-andouille hash and homemade bagelsand lox on the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Hisdrumming, busy but focused, blows minds as well, extending his influence far beyond the already passé 'food-punk' scene.While not putting out records in the past few years, Marsh and Daphne played rhythm guitar and bass for the popular garage-pop band Lover!
