Molly & The Zombies

Ehh…it just wasn't as good as the others, to be honest. Not that it was bad per se, but I don't recall it really even having a chorus. It rambled.

I feel like Sketchy could have used some more work. It's the type of song that's very difficult to pull off in one take. That being said it's probably my favorite one, just not my favorite recording

Really? I don't have any real issue with this recording of it, but I think that's largely due to how low the bar was set after that demo, haha. Hearing this recording though reminded me of why I loved the song so much when I first heard it back in December. What about it bothers you? <(this is a genuine question not a bitchy remark.)

the ending is kinda of a mess and i thought the vocal delivery was a little squirrely. one of my favorite parts is when the drums drop out for the last chorus, and i feel like the instrumentation leading up to that part kind of takes away from it

another small nitpick is the drum sound on the songs. i just don't really like how they come across, but sketchy's drums are a little more echoey and 3 dimensional, which i actually like a little more

Posted on diamond choir interview for brian mcgees new album. Small part about molly


"There are no plans made for a record or a tour. But, we’ve definitely kicked around ideas for recording and playing more shows. It’s a fun band so, of course, we’d like to do more things. But everyone has other/bigger projects that require a larger time commitment. We’ll see what happens."

Turns out Cat played on 4 of the 11 songs on Jack White's Lazaretto. Check out the Jack White New Solo Album thread for more.

Poor guy can't make his own music.   

Maybe not necessary to make it the headline but he did compare it to Dylan and I think anyone familiar with his music would recognize that line delivery as being extremely Dylanesque. But I see what you're saying haha. Can't catch a break, that Mr. Fallon.

at least the fool gets articles written about his music. a pyrrhic victory

Do articles relating to Brian exist where another artist ISN'T mentioned in the title and/or first two sentences?

But yeah, to be fair, he did Bring up the Dylan thing and I think many of us immediately pointed out how the delivery of that line sounded very Dylanesque. Although, if you think about it, how often do you suppose he does an interview and answers maybe 20+ questions, 19 of which don't involve mentioning another artist (or do but they're a less known act) and then the 1-2 quotes the interviewer uses, are the ones mentioning the big name artist that will pull in readers? I'm betting this happens a lot. It's smart (but annoying) journalism.

I didn't had time to listen to the songs until this morning, but I really like them. My fav is Long Drive

Something tells me he had a huge smile on his face when he said that line. Especially because it was probably preceded by the question: "Some of your lyrics remind your listeners of Bob Dylan..."

True, I mean it is one hell of a compliment! But I still wonder if articles exist where comparing him to someone else isn't the main focus. But yeah, in this case it was probably a good thing.

Full set!!!

Thanks for sharing

great, thanks for the video!

Great vid. Would be so much better without the annoying guy singing next to you. Oh wait, that was me   

I don't understand why they didn't release this on 7", I would love to have these songs on vinyl.

My rough version of Smoke from earlier today

https://soundcloud.com/stevan-gallacher/smoke-molly-the-zombies

So i have to say those songs have grown a lot on me.

At first listen they were waay too catchy for my listening pleasure, but especially Long Drives is in my top 10 songs of the year right now

Is there a way to download these? I've been searching without luck.

there ya go
