Dave Derby's musical career began auspiciously as the leader
of 90's alt-rock heroes The Dambuilders, a band once decreed
by Spin Magazine to be "the best unsigned band in America."
Not unsigned for long, The Dambuilders inked a major label
deal (East/West Atlantic), but several albums later they
disbanded. Soon after, Dave Derby recorded his first solo
outing under the moniker Brilliantine (yes, named after his
favorite hair product).
Since that time, he's been busy stockpiling even more of his
trademark brilliant catchy tunes while touring and
collaborating with artists such as Lloyd Cole and Jill
Sobule.
Even Further Behind is the Badman debut release from Dave
Derby (September 2003). As the first album released under
his name, it encompasses Dave's various musical personas
into one glorious pop explosion. Produced by Thom Monahan
(Pernice Brothers, Beachwood Sparks), Derby and Michael
Kotch, Even Further Behind features performances by Lloyd
Cole, Vitamin C, Phoebe Summersquash (Small Factory,
Godrays), Jud Ehrbar (Reservoir, Varnaline) and Kendall
Meade (Mascott).
As an album, Even Further Behind weaves a cohesive thread of
pop sentimentality and dynamic instrumentation underlying
each song. From song to song, the tone and textures shift
from bittersweet Southern Californian melancholia to wry New
York urgency, and back again to pop-flavored romanticism.
Dreamy rock, introspective pop, or whatever you call it,
it's music to suit the full range of your moodswings.

The man who should've been a major kingpin in the pop world
of the 1990s...is back with yet another stunning collection
of shimmering pop. Dave Derby first came to the attention of
most folks by way of his first band The Dambuilders. Even
though the band was fantastic, they ended up being somewhat
of an obscure favorite among critics...and had little
commercial success. After the band dissolved, Derby released
two CDs under the name Brilliantine...which consisted of
home-recorded compositions. Switch to 2003...Derby is
back...with a super slick and totally satisfying batch of
extraordinary tunes. Why did he drop the Brilliantine name?
In Derby's own words, "I wanted to remove that level of
artifice that was really a solo project masquerading behind
a band name. Of course now I'm masquerading as an earnest
sensitive singer-songwriter, but what can you do?" Actually,
Derby is by no means masquerading. He truly is an earnest
and sensitive singer-songwriter of the highest
callibre...and the man has a voice to die for. Because he
has produced so much great work, it is difficult to say
whether or not this is Derby's best album...but it certainly
rivals anything he's done up to this point. Exceptionally
well-written tunes include "Middle Class Hero," "California
Nervous Breakdown" (an amazing cut), "Sad Northern Town,"
and "Cigarette Cowboy." Highly recommended. -LMNOP
Enjoy!
