bio Formed in 2001, the Damnwells represent the songwriting efforts of singer/guitarist Alex Dezen, whose mix of alt-country and alternative pop/rock is supported by a variety of talented musicians and producers. The group took root in Brooklyn, where Dezen was joined by ex-Whiskeytown drummer Steven Terry, bassist Ted Hudson, and guitarist Dave Chernis. A series of EPs helped cement the band's sound and the Damnwells were soon asked to tour in support of Cheap Trick. After the tour The Damnwells headed to their Manhattan Mini Storage space, which doubled as a rehearsal space and makeshift studio, to record their first full-length album. Pairing Dezen's slow, codeine-laced ballads with up-tempo rock, they completed Bastards of the Beat before signing a deal with Epic Records.. + Informações

From the forthcoming album NO ONE LISTENS TO THE BAND ANYMORE available March 2011 from PledgeMusic Recrodings / Poor Man's Records (Redeye Distribution) www.thedamnwells.com www.pledgemusic.com/projects/thedamnwells Have you heard the news today? Oh, boy. The broken heart's still unemployed. It's looking for a kickstart tonight. But the world keeps spinning 'round and it won't go down. Not without a fight. I will drive you home, though we're both drunk and stoned. Just follow the stars and speeding red cars into the great unknown O beautiful for spacious skies. What a shitty soundtrack of our lives. Have we run out of the good years? No, we are not afraid. We're just underpaid and waiting for the world to disappear. (Chorus) Oh, unseen Lord, tell me what you want from me and I'll see what I can do about it. Oh, unseen Lord, aren't your hands awfully full with Jesus Christ, Hare Krishna, Maimonides? Oh, I wish you well. I love you, but it's complicated. (Chorus). + Informações

Enjoy gilly.wakefieldgirls.net Come to me, I'll be your wishing well With cigarettes to save you I'm a little lonely, can't you tell? Waiting on your rescue For all my dreams, all my schemes There was never anyone to stand next to So baby, have I got you? Running round in last place Trying to keep a steady pace What I got to give, I give up Fools and thieves can keep on wishing good luck I'm calling you to say That I'm gonna be anywhere you want Tonight and forever I'm coming home to take Take us both apart and put us back like one And bleed together I'm calling you to say That I'm gonna stay wrapped round your heart Through time and weather I never live I never die Without you Come around sweet keeper, kiss and tell So everyone can hear you Give me heaven with a bit of hell To be the heavy heart true For all your tears, all my fears We were all alone, hiding in the same room But baby, now I see you Running round in last place Trying to keep a steady pace What I got to give, I give up Fools and thieves can keep on wishing good luck I'm calling you to say That I'm gonna be anywhere you .... + Informações

The Damnwells did an in-store performance at the Virgin record store in Tempe, AZ for promotion of their documentary playing at the Phoenix film festival that weekend. I was one of about 12 people watching this. You can see people just walking past like it's no big deal. I guess they think it's not worth listening to unless it's on Top 40 radio. What a shame. The documentary, entitled 'Golden Days', ended up winning in its category...thanks to a vote by yours truly, I'm sure. Ha.. + Informações

Heart beats on the fault line of, Love and doubt and wasted time, And I'm not here to show you up, Break you down or change your mind, There's nothing we haven't burned, But still this fire makes no light and no heat, I have been around the world and riding on the edge of something, Til the dawn was weak, Come in darling, stay a while, Stay away from God and thieves, There is consolation in the human failure of our dreams, Come around on the far side of hate and hurt and misery, With my arms empty, They wait for you like soldiers in a war, Like the cross waited for Constantine, Come and let her hear, The werewolves if she wants to, Howling at the moon, Waiting for the sweet embraceable you, Come and let her steer, Against the tide with sad, slow tunes, She might have a way out of here, You've been standing here a while, Down among the city lights, Shuffle through the bright streets of St. Petersburg, Summer white nights, And I just want to hold you up, Face pressed to the velvet sky, So you can hear heaven answer, Every question you've ever had save the ones you wanted me to ask, Chorus She might have enough to fear, She is running away, With the dust and bones of the last crusade, Reaching across these oceans and fields, With a silent sway, She is coming home on the last train, From this fallen kingdom,. + Informações
