CMU Approved
Approved: Zach Hill – Memo To The Man
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 29 July 2010
Zach Hill, drummer with noise rock types Hella, has announced that his second solo album, ‘Face Tat’, will be released through Sargeant House on 19 Oct. As with his debut, it will feature collaborations with all manner of other artists, this time including Devendra Bandhart plus members of No Age, Deerhoof and Prefuse 73.
The opening track, ‘Memo To The Man’, is available now as a free download, and sees Hill’s idiosyncratic drumming style complemented by Deerhoof’s also very talented stick waver, Greg Saunier. Add to that abstract guitar squeals from Tera Melos guitarist Nick Reinhart and !!!-esque vocals from Hill himself and you’ve got what fans of obscure indie are already calling “a great pop song”, even though it would make the average Girls Aloud fan clutch their head and vomit (this adds to the charm, I think).
