Weekend Showcase 4.01

Barely Legal

The Stomp

The Audio recordings of the RECEIVER short film, coming out on 10" vinyl through GREENWAY RECORDS & on tape through BURGER RECORDS! A brand new EP of all live, in the red, loud as hell and super tight rock and roll from Thee Most Valuable Players.

Info below taken from the video series!

Greetings, Thee MVPs transmit to you the viewer a short film called 'RECEIVER', better known as army slang for a radio as well as the headset on an old telephone (remember them?!) The following is five songs beamed down to you via the competent and kinetic camerawork of Max Horn aka BARONXBONES

Better known for his work with Frank Carter and The Rattlesnakes, Max has captured the band knocking five of their numbers out of the park. The mission statement was simple, make it look like it's from the 70s, 'make us look like those old Beat Club and Old Grey Whistle Test videos would you please' may or may not have been the $1million question here.

Behind the desk was long time collaborator to the band Theo Verney, whose recent production on the Slimelord 45 along with storming records by TRAAMS and Rad Fru proved that he was once again the perfect match for cutting these Most Valuable of Players.

Recorded all live in a huge room at Brighton Electric, Thee MVPs fill the whole place with a pounding rhythm section, punch to the gut guitars and gusto-filled vocal attacks that the high ceilings could barely contain, everyone knows they're better live so we figured we may as well give you what you really want not just another soundcloud link!

RECEIVER features three oldies and two brand newbies which are getting their first flex out in this session! Performed well, recorded better than that and looking even better than both those other things to boot, sit back and get a smattering/battering of the band before heading to a show, which they'll be doing lots of always and forever.

Are you ready to receive the receiver?

Everything Falls Apart

Born the youngest of ten children, raised in Southwest Detroit and a resident of Nashville since 2005, Jack White is one of the most prolific and renowned artists of the past fifteen years.

When the White Stripes started in 1997 no one, least of all Jack, ever expected that a red-and-white two-piece band would take hold in the mainstream world. With the release of 2001’s White Blood Cells the band was thrust on magazine covers and captivating audiences through worldwide touring. “Fell in Love With a Girl” served as the band’s breakthrough hit and its accompanying Michel Gondry Lego clip was chosen by Pitchfork Media as the #1 music video of the 2000’s.

The release of Elephant in 2003 not only cemented the band’s reputation as a force to be reckoned with, but it also offered the hit “Seven Nation Army” which has since become appropriated as a de facto stadium chant for many sports teams the world over.

In 2004 White teamed up with Loretta Lynn to produce and perform on her Van Lear Rose album, an effort that won Grammy’s for Best Country Album and Best Country collaboration with vocals for the single “Portland, Oregon.” To date White has won nine Grammys in seven different categories.

White formed a “new band of old friends” the Raconteurs in 2006 and their debut album Broken Boy Soldiers showed a markedly different side, most notably one where songwriting, vocal and guitar duties were shared. The success of their debut-single “Steady, As She Goes” proved that White’s previous accomplishments were no fluke.

To take it even further, in 2009 White took to his original instrument, the drums, and started the Dead Weather with members of the Kills, Queens of the Stone Age and the Greenhornes. Releasing two albums in two years and unleashing a dark, captivating live show upon curious audiences, the Dead Weather futher-cemented Jack White’s musical versatility and range.

Also in 2009, White opened the doors to his very own record label, Third Man Records, where he has produced over 120 records in less than three years. Spanning artists as varied as Jerry Lee Lewis, the Smoke Fairies, Wanda Jackson, Black Milk and Stephen Colbert, the label has quickly developed a reputation as a leader in the vinyl record industry.

In January 2012 White announced the upcoming release of his debut album Blunderbuss which will be accompanied by extensive touring across the world.
