Hi Craniac,
No, it's not a secret but rather just never discussed. There's a great sign heading on the cape that says "Mashpee Sandwich" (an exit for two cape towns) and I always thought that sounded like a terrible lunch item. It may have even been the original first name.
Thanks for checking out Brambles. Pass it along to others! THanks!

Wait! He didn't write to me; I copied that part, obviously. Crummy system removed spaces...just clarifying.

Fellow BRENT OBERLIN wrote to tell me he's the first one to know where the name "Mashpee" came from. Good job Brent! (pretty sure I know, too.)It's a secret? Even from Him? "Brambles" is killer, btw.

Ahh Dead River Drag...I wore that CD d
own to dust..."Distance" used to rattle my windows...
In response to: Bill Millmine on 09-29-09 for Rollinghead
I use to work with Dave Grant at the KIA and watch Rollinghead/Deadriverdrag play at Club-Soda all the time. Rollinghead is one of my most listend to cd's still today. I wish I could have been there to see them again.
I played Bass for the Bremmens and have a lot of fond memories of the music scene back in the day.
We would be kickin in walls at Lovell street house to Thought Industry, then be trippin at the God Bullies place and end up toaking our way back Oak street to jam with Maureen and Adam and the Bremmens clan all night long.
I'm going to have to get back to Kazoo sometime. --- end of previous message ---

john, i've woken up with years gone and no memories of what transpired. if you remember the 90's you weren't there i suppose. and especially the late great 80's. anyway, no harm done. i just cringe when i see my name mentioned in anything really. as if i didn't already have an entire lifetime of embarrassing moments to live down. didn't realize you were a band manager tho. interesting.

An Aduly Adipisci imagines Little Doorways Buried in the Ground
In pursuit in an army of children
An Adulty Adipisci is a eight song collection of tales of adult experience
such as having children, feeling love, and enjoying a good drunk drive home.
This is the seventh TASM Lab album, and like its predecessors, it is completely
different than the rest.
The spotlight on Jeff Till's new compositions are the harmonized vocals of
Kalamazoo legend Chris Bryers (Twitch, Sleet, Owlsa, Selling
Heaven, TASM's "Thing and Nothing", and now "Hazel and the Black
Rabbit") and now Bostonite and beautiful pipette Michelle Graf (Blue Dahlia, "Thing
and Nothing", "The Essential Cubicle Nosepicker", Tether).
The vocals sing gorgeous, memorable melodies in sometimes energetic sometime
sullen tones. Harmonies and melodies are layered and rich, but sometimes
lonely and stark.
The singing is supported by a live band of acoustic guitars, gooey del
palmer-y bass, acoustic drums, live percussion, piano, and an assortment
of strings,
bells, choruses and even birds and atmospheric noises. The sounds with
harmonies are often layered into thick walls of sonic dream, like the
first track off
of the Cure's "disintegration", a prettier part of MBV's Loveless,
sometimes even feeling like an orchestra.
The songs could be compared to The Flaming Lips "The Soft Bulletin",
Tori Amos albums, The New Pornographers, Sun Kil Moon, Burt Bacharach, Elvis
Costello, Fiona Apple, Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, The Cure, My Bloody Valentine,
The Church, Prince, David Gray, Peter Yourn, Coldplay, Adam Ant. Um. Elliot
Smith, Billy Bragg, The Damned's "Phantasmagoria". Maybe a bit of
sixties jangle in there, um, Webber and Lloyd, Henry Mancini...
Late stage Beatles or beach boys, as far as instrumentation, might
not be far off.
It's not totally unlike TASM Lab's "Essential Cubicle Nosepicker",
but there's a whole band this time.
You could also say it could fit into a Wes Anderson or Sophia Coppola
or other art-intellectual-quirky filmmaker soundtrack. This might
be the best
description,
because while the music is completely non-experimental and totally
pop-accessible, it avoids any established genre per se, much like
all of the strumming
and singing you hear in the inventive songs during movies like Rushmore
or Lost
in Translation.
Brent Oberlin says: "I listened to the whole album. Is this the order?
Is it a concept record? I remember you playing me "Love will Cloud" at
our visit. At times you pull-off a very good wall-o-sound/ Roy Orbison/ Bruce
Springsteen-type thing with the production. All the strings, piano, and strum'in
acoustics are cool. I really like "Army of Children", "Cool
Water", and "Love will Cloud"; plus the hickbilly/ super-outro
drumfills in "Lost in a Parking Lot" are fun. Did you sing on anything
besides "Souced Romantics"? MB and CB together again. I hope I haven't
said anything that makes you taste vomit."
You could say it's related in sound/trend to Chris Bryer's recent "Birds" and "Hazel
and The Black Rabbit" and the lighter moments of Thought Industry's "Short
Wave on a Cold Day".
