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
I can't take rejection So I burned the church down I keep two thousand people in the shopping square I threw a brick through the vicar's window and shouted "Yeah, stuff it up yer arse Reverend!" Let me hear it But these days I believe in nothing Let me hear it lord But these days I believe in nothing Let me hear it Nothing Nothing Let me hear it Let me hear it No no no no I've got the blues I've lost myself... Ooh you and me baby ...in the blues Oh yeah The clear image of her in my mind Stands smiling, waiting for something Which I cannot yet understand I must probe deeper into the caverns Of her soul substance Seeking the answer Which will not really matter anyway No no...come on I shake my head and throw down my pen The image remains as before Come on Let me hear it lord But these days I believe in nothing Come on yeah But these days I believe in nothing Nothing Nothing Then I went off to the doctors I said Doctor you know I'm not feeling very well Doctor Every time I wake up in the morning I feel this like rhythmic beat in my chest going Boom-boom Boom-boom Shoo-bah-bah-bah-doo Lyrics ©2013 Frank Fish/Mick Clack

Well folks, I for one believe wholeheartedly in Nige and Trev. This new N&T composition is another little gem from the quirky Oxford duo and it doesn't disappoint in any way. Frank Fish's opening religious rant informs us that he "threw a brick through the vicar's window" and his gravelly Cutteslowe snarling is perfectly balanced by snippets of Bronwyn Leonard's beautiful gospelly jazz vocal. Not sure I've ever heard Nige and Trev 'go reggae' before but 'I Believe in Nothing' most certainly slips effortlessly into a reggae feel but then before we know what's happening we're suddenly immersed in smoky jazz, with a lazy blues lick creeping in and then it's the unique full blown Nige and Trev controlled chaos, an undefined outpouring from the very gut and soul, straight from the memory of the screaming womb. "I've lost myself in the blues..." growls an emotional Frank as Bronwyn softly moans "oh you and me baby..." and they've got us, hook line and sinker and as we hang in mid air, holdi
