PILOT SCOTT TRACY

We Cut Loose!

a new album on Alternative Tentacles

OUR EDITORIAL recommendation:
"We Cut Loose" is indeed unrestrained. The songs are very high minded, energetically delivered, and composed with an urgency that may bemesmerizing. Healthy hyper. They do a cover of a Smith's song "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out"

I loved it!

An exuberant Wesley Willis sings, "Pilot Scott Tracy." before the band
takes off in "UFO."

Listen over and over again.


from Alternative Tentacles
comes this informative press release



Pilot Scott Tracy is a brainchild of Scott and Tracy Cox-Stanton, formerly of the Causey Way. It is a flight of fantasy based on the good old days of air travel when stewardesses coddled you with free beverages and fluffed pillows. Their music, described by one critic as "aggressively homo," is sometimes raw, sometimes pretty, sometimes serious, sometimes silly, a delicious collision of early punk and new wave. It's more diverse than their excellent first AT release, Any City- check out this brand new high-flying release!

PILOT SCOTT TRACY
Any City

Brand New from Causey Way folks! Pilot Scott Tracy takes a two-pronged approach: Scott pairs his fuzzed-out guitar with manic vocals while Tracy's tender voice floats over polished synth pop leads—kinda like getting Man... Or Astroman and Ladytron, or The Polysics and Stereo Total in one band. Brand New from the pioneers of the punk-new wave hybrid you love to pop out to!

The Minus One on slide show now playing "The Minus One" is the name of the group Dana Alberts, Liam Hart and Mike Henry started in the eighties. The band released four singles through the "Skate Rock" series through Thrasher Magazine, and appeared on “One Giant Leap”, a compilation record released in England on Venture Records in 1983. The next year, they recorded “Where A Man Was Made,” with Spencer Dryden on drums (Jefferson Airplane drummer) and Naomi Ruth Isenberg (Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks) on violin. Minus One toured the U.S. in 1985 with the VKTMS, the punk band formed by drummer Louis Gwerder and featuring Nyna Crawford. Later that year Alberts was approached by Danny Sugerman, the author and former manager of the “Doors, and Iggy Pop's manager, after Sugerman had heard a tape of the band. This led them to an offer of a record deal from Geffen Records. The band, broke up before the deal could be consummated. They reformed in late 2006, and are be currently rehearsing to play extensively in 2007.
