Release Notes:
Some people get a reputation and spend the rest of their days trying to distance
themselves from it, but Nick Oliveriæs always been a little more punk rock. The
former bassist for Kyuss, former bassist/vocalist for Queens of the Stone Age
and intermittent member of Dwarves, BlÆast, Vista Chino and his own Mondo
Generator, Oliveri today releases Leave Me Alone, the debut full-length from the
new heavy rocking solo-project Nick OliveriÆs Uncontrollable. Out on Schnitzel
Records, itÆs an album that should find root with anyone whoÆs bemoaned the
adultification of Queens of the Stone Age, brimming with hard-driven riffing and
a sense of danger thatÆs been a trademark of Oliveriæs songwriting even down to
his acoustic records.
ItÆs a ôsoloö album in the sense that Oliveri handles bass, drums, rhythm
guitar, vocals and is credited as producer alongside with engineers Trevor
Whatever and Harper Hug at Thunder Underground, but itÆs also a ôsoloö album in
the sense that there are a ton of people playing solos on it. Dig this track
listing:
1. Human Cannonball Explodes (feat. Dean Ween)
2. Keep Me in the Loop (feat. Stephen Haas)
3. Luv Is Fiction (feat. LightninÆ Woodcock & Marc Diamond)
4. Come and YouÆre Gone (feat. Marc Diamond & Blag Dhalia)
5. The Robot Man (feat. Phil Campbell)
6. Get Lost (With Me) (feat. Rex Everything)
7. Leave Me Alone
8. The Void (feat. Bruno Fevery)
9. Death Leads the Way (feat. Mike Pygmie)
Of course thatÆs Dean Ween from Ween, Stephen Haas from Moistboyz, Phil Campbell
from Mot÷rhead, Blag Dhalia and Marc Diamond from Dwarves, Bruno Fevery from
Vista Chino, and so on. Oliveri even sneaks in for a go himself as his alter-ego
Rex Everything. All this has the effect of making Leave Me Alone û an album
that, despite its title, thrusts itself in your face at nearly every turn ù even
more unhinged, Oliveri tackling his infamous run-in with a SWAT team on ôThe
Robot Manö and building a record-spanning momentum that caps with, what else?,
ôDeath Leads the Wayöæs riotous apex, Mike Pygmie of Mondo Generator stepping in
to help out.
Oliveri has never left much room for middle-ground reactions, but love him or
hate him, Leave Me Alone is about as Oliveri as Oliveri gets. Take a listen if
youÆre so inclined and find out for yourself
