Sonic Youth Drummer Forms New Band


Steve Shelley partners with members of Ministry and Nachtmystium
 

Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley has formed a new band. The High Confessions features Shelley, industrial legend Chris Connelly (Ministry, Revolting Cocks, Pigface), Chicago metal mainstay Sanford Parker (Minsk, Nachtmystium, Buried at Sea), and engineer Jeremy Lemos of the band White/Light (he has worked with Bill Callahan, Jim O'Rourke, and Stereolab).

Metal label Relapse Records has signed the band, and they'll release their debut album, titled Turning Lead Into Gold With the High Confessions, this summer. Relapse describes the High Confessions' sound as "a real heavy, psychedelic rock."



On March 20, Shelley will perform with Lemos' band White/Light at Chicago's Museum of Contemporary Art as part of an interactive music installation White/Light has installed at the MCA. Shelley and White/Light have also collaborated with members of the Chicago band Disappears (recently signed to Kranky) on a single to be released on Sixgunlover.

Finally, a Sonic side-project that doesn't sound as if it'll sound like every other Sonic side-project.


Just kidding. Almost.

Shelly and the boys should've gone with the Queen look. It's more affecting.
