Skylacking

Yes, it's sad but true: SKYLACKING, the XTC fans' tribute cassette has officially SOLD OUT COMPLETELY. And I don't mean it's doing Nike commercials and guest-hosting 120 Minutes either. The whole XTC tribute tape series was a monumental success on all fronts, thanks to everyone who contributed material, helped with the cover design or just bought the damn things. From this moment forth SKYLACKING is no longer available. Not from me anyway.

SKYLACKING is the third XTC fan tribute tape from Bizarre Depiction.

Insane versions of every song on the album (and a few B-sides as well) performed by XTC fans:

Summer's Cauldron: John Neil of Bacchus Jihad.
Grass: Franco Turra's version, sung in Italian (making it "Erba").
The Meeting Place: Chris Dodge of legendary SF bands Spazz and Bjorn Again.
That's Really Super, Supergirl: The Pop-Up Book (Brian Marchese's old band)
Ballet For A Rainy Day: Dave Stafford
1000 Umbrellas: Nortons Orchestraville (Keith Hanlon's band)
Season Cycle: Top 40 (Jason Garcia)
Terrorism: Useless
Let's Make A Den + Find The Fox: Star*Pillow
The Troubles: Dave Gershman
Earn Enough For Us: sung in German by Martin Fuchs
Big Day: John Neil's Burning Futon
Another Satellite: John Relph
Mermaid Smiled: Samarkand
The Man Who Sailed Around His Soul: Daniel Prendiville
Dear God: Chris Spillios
Dying: Daniel Prendiville
Sacrificial Bonfire: Samarkand

Bizarre Depiction also produced a zine called AUTOreverse which covered the home recording scene ("Cassette Culture"). As threatened, AUTOreverse is now on the web, in a skeletal version, featuring interviews and reviews of self-released, home-made audio recordings. NEW MUSIC STRAIGHT FROM THE SOURCE, featuring many SKYLACKING and CHALKHILLS contributors...
