RELEASE DATE

2021 repress forthcoming. Bang! Records present a reissue of
Lydia Lunch
and
Rowland S. Howard
's
Shotgun Wedding
, originally released in 1991. Lydia Lunch: New York City's provocateur, poet, singer, author, performer, and actress. From fronting the influential no-wave group
Teenage Jesus and The Jerks
to her current musical incarnation as
Big Sexy Noise
, with
Gallon Drunk
's noise makers
James Johnston
,
Terry Edwards
, and
Ian White
; countless collaborations and projects in between Lydia has never played by anyone's rules but her own. This 1991 collaboration with the Australian iconic cult figure
Rowland S. Howard
is perhaps one of her most revered. Featuring production by
JG Thirwell
(
Foetus
,
Manorexia
) and drums by
Jim Sclavunos
(
Bad Seeds
,
Grinderman
) it's a veritable who is who of the post punk/no wave scene of the time. Rowland S. Howard is no doubt best known for his work with the
Birthday Party
, his discordant guitar is an essential factor in their sound. Howard sadly passed away from liver cancer in 2009. A hugely influential alternative musician, in 2011 he was subject to a 110-minute documentary entitled
Autoluminescent
, by cult filmmakers
Richard Lowenstein
and
Lynne Maree Milburn
, which received an independent cinema release. Featuring luminaries such as
Nick Cave
,
Bobby Gillespie
,
Wim Wenders
, and of course... Lydia Lunch, the film highlights Howard s genius, talent, and rightfully elevates him to the cult status he so deserves. With both parties at the height of their respective talents, this is an alternative rock gem, yet however maintains an atmosphere of eerie beauty throughout. Out of print for years, this re-press is a must have.
