A decade after disbanding his acclaimed garage act
Broke Revue, British expat
Dan Melchior offers a newly rebuilt and decidedly leaner version of the band on 2015's
Lords of the Manor. Evolving from the raucous, bluesy sounds of its earlier output, the new
Broke Revue is a more streamlined affair, pitting dark experimental textures against jagged minimalist post-punk riffs and rhythms.
Melchior has kept busy, releasing a prodigious amount of solo work from his home in North Carolina, but fans will welcome the return of one of his most popular projects. ~ Timothy Monger
