Ranting, grooving, shrieking, psycho-jazz/rock/blues/classical/comedy/funk mayhem
On December 25th 2005 NIGE and TREV were announced as winners in no less than three categories in the 2006 International Online Music Awards (IOMAS)...BEST ARTIST, BEST COMPOSER and BEST SONG for their track entitled 'My Horse will never exist in Reality'. NIGE and TREV's drummer Dale Marshall also received the 2006 IOMA for BEST DRUMMER. NIGE and TREV are a ranting, grooving, shrieking, psychedelic, experiMENTAL, soup hurling,pendulum obsessed jazz/rock/blues/classical/comedy/funk duo who have a passionate devil-may- care, 'no-holds-barred' approach to music resulting in a rapturous hotch potch of euphoric whistling funk-folk pandemonium peppered with fevered bursts of whammy bar werewolf gibberish reminiscent of Captain Beefheart and the great Lord Buckley with distant echoes of Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention, Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis. Mick 'Trev' Clack's battered Stratocasters wail and howl relentlessly at the three moons of Planet Klennaar carving out a ricketty balsa wood platform for Frank 'Nige' Fish's reckless, unstoppable, scatterbrained Hammer-Horror love sermons. He talks in tongues, he yelps, he growls, he plays guitar upside down, he yodels, he bellows, he serenades, he lectures and occaisonally he even resorts to SINGING! NIGE and TREV also have a wacky website on MY SPACE. MICK 'Trev-or-is-it-Nige?'CLACK has his own website on MY SPACE... FRANK 'Nige-or-is-it-Trev?' FISH has his own website on MY SPACE... Nige & Trev also rear their ugly heads in a band obsessed with all things aquatic - FRANK FISH AND THE FINS....click on this Soundclick logo to visit their garish underwater world of psychedelic, high energy, flipper-hatted panto-rock:

Lyrics
Monday, dear Diary what a day What a day Alright...those cows tell 'em to keep 'em moving keep 'em moving Johnny is a Buddhist Johnny is a Hindu Johnny jumped through the bathroom window yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Be-bop kaloobie But she's totally unaware She's totally unaware that he left a note on the sideboard But she's totally unaware She's totally unaware Who's there boo-beah? What a day Eeh-aww Eeh-aww rock What a day Rock C'mon everybody All together everybody Keep 'em moving Nallum tell 'em to keep 'em moving Moving tell 'em to keep 'em moving Moving What a day Why don't we paint the river blue? Yeah...arh arh Those cows tell 'em to keep 'em moving Keep 'em moving Nallum tell 'em to keep 'em moving Her rods are on her shoulder She's marching to the resovoir She's got a green umbrella Susie and Mary Er..hello there I've got some news for you Yes some really good news We're all gonna die We're all gonna die We're all gonna die We're all gonna die Why...I..all gonna die We're all gonna Dyer We're gonna die We're gonna die We're gonna die We're gonna die We're all gonna live forever For ever For ever We're all going to live Welcome to Clarey's Jazz night... Prunella by the way is Jasper's dumpy, Chain-smoking, ex-army half-sister who shares... ...Who job shares with Kay as Tom's horn-rimmed, Nail-filing secretary on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and spends the rest of the week sat at her 0% interest finance Dell computer writing a steamy, semi-autobiographical novel... ...eeh-aww... entitled 'The Police barged in and I struggled with mice'. 'The Police barged in and I struggled with mice' Monday...dear Diary what a day! Lyrics copyright 2007 Mick Clack/Frank Fish

This has a really freakish Zappa/Beefheart vibe to it. I found it rather enjoyable.

'Dear Diary' is utterly stupendous! A living breathing masterpiece of surreal 3D improvisation fusing jazz, blues, psychedelia, comedy, horror and general gibberish into one big heavenly, rambling, feverish, no-rules musical journey. A totally unique and amazing listening experience. Nige and Trev are out there on their own...highly recommended. 5 stars!!!!
