Press Release
Nitzer Ebb founder/electronic music pioneer Douglas J McCarthy began writing his first ever solo album in 2010 during a European DJ tour. McCarthy and world renowned producer/former M People singer Mark Bell – lauded for his work with such acts as Doc Martin and Felix da Housecat – recorded the album in LA over two years that found McCarthy performing 150 shows with Nitzer Ebb, caring for his father in England, and travelling across India by train.
McCarthy wrote Kill Your Friends as he traveled the world, returning to Cyrusrex’s LA studio where Cyrusrex’s custom made analog gear and Bell’s innovative production techniques bolstered McCarthy’s revolutionary debut. Recalling Cabaret Voltaire, Heroes era Bowie and Kraftwerk, this record devilishly blends industrial and experimental sounds with heavy dance floor beats and pop melodies.
For this release, McCarthy turned to Pylon Records whose mission to expose hidden gems from the darker side of the musical underground catalyzed their 2011 release of Peter Hook & The Light’s reawakening of Unknown Pleasures and single-handedly saved Santa Barbara’s Iron Curtain from absolute obscurity.
Kill Your Friends will be released by Pylon Records on November 23, 2012 in vinyl and CD. All vinyl editions include CDs featuring bonus songs and remixes. A limited collection of signed LPs will be available exclusively through Pylon’s website: www.pylonrecords.com.
Revolutionary in its conception, execution and distribution, Kill Your Friends truly exploits the opportunity a debut album provides for an artist to create new rules of engagement.
Kill Your Friends is a viscerally energetic journey through the darker side of electronic dance music.
