Album Notes

what's up y'all this is alex mitchell, ex singer from circus of power. i was sitting in my room listening to the damned and watching the sun burn off the early morning fog when i decided to get off my ass and put out this c.d.it was either that or go outside and pick up the wolfshit from my frontyard and hell, i could do that tomorrow.i'd always wanted to play with charlie pickett,underground hillbilly/rock legend from florida,so i called him up after twenty years of no contact and said 'hey charlie,what the fuck,i'll be down there in six weeks and we'll record some music.the usual suspects all showed up that night and we plugged in.the vibe was there.
i needed more songs, so i wrote some with gary sunshine (ex circus) and headed for austin,texas.i found marc frappier (also ex-circus) at casino's bar and grill and we mapped out a plan.the plan was to get drunk and make some nasty, distorted rockin texas blues music. we were successful.
it's been twelve years since i released anything,the last being with circus of power.so i feel good to get this shit out,and am writing more songs.
"they train young men to drop fire on people but they won't allow them to write 'fuck' on the side of their airplanes. they say it's too obscene."-colonel kurtz, 'apocalypse now'.
i hope you dig my music- alex mitchell

Show Biz Al Grows Up and Blows Minds
author: dave
I bought this expecting some excellent blues-based hard rock hard rock. What I got was some forward-looking, ass-kicking rock n' roll. This CD is amazing. Circus of Power, especially Vices, was the goods, but this is even better. The lyrics are intense, personal, and the stories are beautiful and heartbreaking. Alex is Ray Carver and Charles Bukowski with Muscle Shoals pipes. The tunes are hugely original, but stack up well with the best of Social D, the Replacements, and mid-period Stones. I can't recommend this album enough.
