Ranting, grooving, shrieking, psycho-jazz/rock/blues/classical/comedy/funk mayhem
On December 25th 2005 NIGE and TREV were announced as winners in no less than three categories in the 2006 International Online Music Awards (IOMAS)...BEST ARTIST, BEST COMPOSER and BEST SONG for their track entitled 'My Horse will never exist in Reality'. NIGE and TREV's drummer Dale Marshall also received the 2006 IOMA for BEST DRUMMER.
NIGE and TREV are a ranting, grooving, shrieking, psychedelic, experiMENTAL, soup hurling,pendulum obsessed jazz/rock/blues/classical/comedy/funk duo
who have a passionate devil-may-
care, 'no-holds-barred' approach to music resulting in a rapturous hotch potch of euphoric whistling funk-folk pandemonium peppered with fevered bursts of whammy bar werewolf gibberish reminiscent of Captain Beefheart and the great Lord Buckley with distant echoes of Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention, Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis. Mick 'Trev' Clack's battered Stratocasters wail and howl relentlessly at the three moons of Planet Klennaar carving out a ricketty balsa wood platform for Frank 'Nige' Fish's reckless, unstoppable, scatterbrained Hammer-Horror love sermons. He talks in tongues, he yelps, he growls, he plays guitar upside down, he yodels, he bellows, he serenades, he lectures and occaisonally he even resorts to SINGING!
NIGE and TREV also have a wacky website on MY SPACE.
MICK 'Trev-or-is-it-Nige?'CLACK has his own website on MY SPACE...
FRANK 'Nige-or-is-it-Trev?' FISH has his own website on MY SPACE...
Nige & Trev also rear their ugly heads in a band obsessed with all things aquatic - FRANK FISH AND THE FINS....click on this Soundclick logo to visit their garish underwater world of psychedelic, high energy, flipper-hatted panto-rock:

I am told that this particular Nige and Trev composition is one of two N&T songs that are based around a Perry Smith answer-phone message - the other song being the stupendous 15 minute opus 'Message For Jimmy'. Well folks, 'Off Me F***in' 'ead Ehhh???'is considerably shorter than 15 mintes but still packs a mightily surreal Nige and Trev punch. Perry's repeated admission that he is perhaps a little off -the -wall, Frank Fish's gutteral rantings (who IS Bligh's Aunt?), Mick Clack's stuttering wah-wah guitar bursts, Paul Gibbon's backward vocals and a wonderfully funky little beat all adds up to a corker of a song. Not everyone's cup of tea I am sure. The f-word will upset a few listeners but I like it and I'm giving it 5 stars for it's freshness, it's unbounded creativity and it's reckless fun. This world needs Nige and Trev. Bless them!
Very interesting...Great Production....Drumnjon
