Description:

Having first made his mark as a songwriter and guitarist for Los Angelesâ?? Allah-Las, Pedrum Siadatian has etched out a place of his own with his solo work as PAINT. What started as modest 4-track experiments quickly took on a life of their own as Pedrum began distilling his musical and lyrical inspirations into something both timeless and new. His miniature menagerie of light-psych and proto-punk gems had outgrown their cassette cage and were now ready to be heard. PAINTâ??s eponymous debut (Mexican Summer, 2018) appeared out of the ether, fully formed. It was praised for its originality and drew favorable comparisons to the likes of Kevin Ayers, Lou Reed and Julian Cope. The mess was the message and the decidedly mid-fi production found Siadatian both honoring and eschewing tradition. The album was accompanied by videos for the singles â??Daily Gazetteâ? and â??Moldy Man,â? both directed by Sam Kristofski (Connan Mockasin, Pond), with select performances in North America, UK, and Europe. This year sees PAINT returning with the release of the ambitious Spiritual Vegas. While Ray Davies-smirks and Kevin Ayers-wit abound, Siadatianâ??s singular touch is unmistakable. Joined once again by producer / engineer Frank Maston at the helm, Spiritual Vegas features a rogueâ??s gallery of players with performances by Jackson Macintosh (TOPS, Sheer Agony) on bass and guitar, Nick Murray (White Fence, Oh Sees) on drums, and brothers-in- Las Spencer Dunham and Matt Correia on bass and percussion respectively. The production is a clear departure from PAINTâ??s debut- with an increased clarity and tonal variety, drawing inspiration from 80â??s/90â??s art-rock like The Meat Puppets and The Magnetic Fields. The title Spiritual Vegas was inspired by a visit to Bali, Indonesia, where Siadatian was struck by the juxtaposition of tourists seeking either Instagram enlightenment or Vegas-like debauchery. Is there really a difference? Awakening comes in many forms and as Siadatian intones on opener â??Strange World,â? â??the moment you find laughterâ??s the key/ the sooner youâ??ll be freeâ? -- a fortune cookie philosophy for both the record and the world at large. -
