Grab a copy of the 18th September issue of UK magazine NME for an article on Dream Damage Records that makes mention of artists Assassins 88, TV Colours and Danger Beach!
“Australia sure has its fair share of Dullsvilles, but capital city Canberra takes the biscuit. However, a bunch of young bands linked with the local Dream Damage label have been contorting their inner-city suburban snoozing into ultra-distorted ’50′s-influenced pop gems that straddle both a very Australian interest in grunged-out rawk and a gleefully yanky-doodle punk hedonism. Assassins 88 helm this torn-flannel-and-Letterman-jacketed brigade with their Ramonesy teen thrills: under-two-minute-jams, full-on harmony and wild-eyed riffage. TV Colours and their baseball card brand of garage screw with bubblegum pop even more, while Danger Beach rep more shimmering kinds of feedback in their meditative experementalism; one foot in the highschool cafeteria, the other on the beach.”

Jonny Telafone »
Dream Damage Records is proud to announce the release of Jonny Telafone’s new album Wherever the Wind Blows. Now available to order online, Wherever the Wind Blows sees Telafone turn to folk with a collection of ballads and acoustic pop songs about un-requited love, mental illness and werewolves. The artwork was done by the always amazing Andrew Darragh who is currently in the early stages of putting together the Dream Damage Zine. A launch show is being planned for late April and we’re only able to put out 50 copies of the tape so get in quick.
***Other updates with the label: Both the TV Colours 7″ and Assassins 88 7″ have had big delays with the mastering and pressing. The tracks are ready to go and I’ve almost finalised all of the cover work (which look dope) so fingers crossed these will be out soon! Also it’s early days but we’re looking to help put out tapes for ///▲▲▲\\\ and Summer Vacation in the very near future! Stay tuned.***
