Pumice – Miserable Poison 2CD
£14.00
A career-spanning overview of almost epic proportions, Miserable Poison is a massive 2.5 hour collection of Pumice recordings made between 1996 and 2021. The tracks on Miserable Poison are culled from a huge slection of often very limited lathe cut, cassette, CDr and vinyl releases originally put out on labels like Stabbies etc, Root Don Lonie For Cash, Audiobot, 8mm, Yellowelectric, Doubtful Sounds and Soft Abuse.
“Everything Pumice owns is broken. Virgin audience members at his shows might think he is fucking up till half-way through when it becomes clear they are witnessing a perfect solo ballet of mini-cassettes, modified guitar, foot-pedal drum-kit & short-circuiting spring reverb croon. Deep into a genius career, Pumice still surprises with his subtle mastery of broke-down sounds, slowed-down Magic Band rhythms, crumbling chord organ hymns & tragic ballads that reach deep into the very soul of Flying Nun/Xpressway/Root Don Lonie For Cash anti-pop pop music.” – Glenn Donaldson
“Pumice is piloted by Stefan Neville. Sugar Jon Arcus was an original partner back in the day and will always be welcome back on board. Pumice originally appeared as part of the vituperative Plop recordings/Oats street gang in Hamilton in the early 90s amoungst the likes of Armpit, Grommet, Teen-x-ray, Thee Ideal Gus and Gfrenzy. Stefan has been doing Pumice for over half of his life. In recent years there’s been a lot of touring the world and wringing the shit out of himself. Pumice plays parties, bars, galleries, theatres, punk dives, squats, boats, churches and car parks.” – Audio Foundation NZ
