  • “Formidable songwriter, entry-level strummer. Bit of a dick.” Ian McNabb tells a Noel Gallagher story Noel Gallagher won’t want you to hear

    In July 1994, Ian McNabb, leader of Liverpudlian alt.rockers the Icicle Works, released his second solo album, Head Like a Rock. Recorded in Los Angeles with serial Neil Young collaborators Crazy Horse, the album was well-received and was nominated for that year’s Mercury Prize.

    To mark the album’s release, McNabb and Crazy Horse played at that year’s Glastonbury Festival, with a pair of warm-up shows scheduled at Manchester Academy and at King’s College London Student Union.

    At the latter show, Noel Gallagher joined the band onstage, riding a wave of critical acclaim as Oasis geared up for the release of the debut album, Definitely Maybe, the following month.

    “We played Pushin’ Too Hard by the Seeds, which has two chords (Am and G),” says McNabb, posting on Facebook. “He struggled to fit into this basic pattern, and when I told him to take a solo, he royalled [messed up] his Callards [‘trousers’ in Cockney rhyming slang].

    “The show was recorded. When he learned I was releasing it, he demanded he be allowed to redo his performance. When I said it was a live album, and that’s what was going out, he ordered his name be taken off the credits as I was ‘cashing in.’ Formidable songwriter, entry-level strummer (still). Bit of a dick.”

    McNabb’s story appears to have been inspired by footage from an old interview with Gallagher, which has recently gone viral. In the interview, filmed in Tokyo on Oasis’s Standing on the Shoulder of Giants tour in 2000, Gallagher describes Eric Clapton as “fucking awful.”

    “Eric Clapton is not ‘fucking awful’, advises McNabb. “He’s nowhere near the rapture afforded him, but his work with John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, Cream, The Beatles, Plastic Ono Band, Blind Faith and Roger Waters was sterling. After Blind Faith, he changed beyond recognition, seduced by the minimalism of The Band, J.J. Cale and Jamaican music.”

    The version of Pushin’ Too Hard recorded with the uncredited Gallagher was eventually released on Ian McNabb’s Merseybeast album in 1996. McNabb’s latest solo album, 65, was released in April.

  • Ukrainian Post-Punk Trio Small Depo Explores Love, Loss, and Fear With “Pryhody” (Adventures)

    Ukraine’s Small Depo return from their long break with Pryhody, and the album comes in like a van with bad brakes, a cracked windshield, and somebody in the back still arguing with God. The Kyiv post-punk band, founded in 2014, has always known its way around 80s tension, but here the old machinery gets dented, kicked, and made to run on nerve. Think Midnight Oil’s open-road charge getting dragged through Ministry’s metal shop, with the fumes of loss, love, fear, and bad decisions coming up through the floorboards.

    The title means “Adventures,” which sounds cheerful until the record starts throwing elbows. These are adventures in the adult sense: years that take your face in both hands and make you look directly at what changed. Pryhody carries the marks of distance, exhaustion, friendship, fear, and the slow, unglamorous business of accepting what cannot be fixed by volume alone. Small Depo do not prettify any of it. They bang it into shape.

    Rozkazhy (Tell Me), the lead single, works through choice, responsibility, and the ending that waits for everybody with a cigarette behind its ear. The song moves with a hard, clipped urgency, as if the band has no patience left for decorative despair. The vocals sound cornered but lucid, the rhythm section keeps pushing, and the guitars scrape at the edges with enough bite to keep the room awake.

    Previously released singles Elektromerezhi (“Power Grid”) and Limb slot into the album like old bruises you forgot to explain. Limb, especially, has a tense physical charge, all motion and damage, and its video, made with the music label of the Third Army Corps and director Sofiko, extends the album’s sense of uncertainty, transformation, and inner search without turning the whole affair into art-school fog.

    The record’s real engine sits inside frontman Maksym Ishchenko’s account of how it came together. “A year of crisis and profound changes in life,” he muses. Thousands of kilometers traveled. Six months of consistent work in the studio and on myself. Standing shoulder to shoulder with people who believed in me and continue to inspire me. All of this has poured into our new material.”

    The band came back because the songs had weight, and because staying quiet would have meant letting the pressure win. A collaborative track with Скажи щось погане adds another voice to the wreckage and keeps the album’s momentum from becoming too sealed inside its own skull.

    Small Depo’s music already has a strange second life through Chernobyl Radio in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl and the documentary Episodes: Shadow of Chornobyl. Pryhody should push them further out. It is loud with memory, rough with change, and alive in the way a busted amp is alive when somebody still has the nerve to plug it in.
