Here it is finally, the third and latest album by New York City band Five Dollar Priest. Continuing the sounds and style of their previous albums, on Eyes Injected with Love Five Dollar Priest stamp their personalities on a base of Lower East Side free-jazz, no wave and dirty, very dirty rock. But they go deeper and deeper into it this time, with songs about hard times and low life in the New York City streets, which they know perfectly well. These definitely aren't easy sounds and this is not music for the masses or the newbies -- this is top-class weird and sick melodies and lyrics which Bang! Records are truly proud to release. Pressed on 150 gram vinyl, and housed in a gatefold sleeve. Limited edition of 500 copies worldwide. Five Dollar Priest include, among others, great musicians: Ron Ward (Speedball Baby, Wobbly Organ); Grasshopper (Mercury Rev); Christina Campanella (Speedball Baby); Norman Westberg (Swans).

Coming from the steamy gutters of Manhattan, Five Dollar Priest deliver their second album as a logical follow-up to their excellent debut record released in 2008. Five Dollar Priest is formed, for this occasion, by members of Speedball Baby, Swans and Mercury Rev, and that´s what it sounds like. With no concessions. A combination of NYC free jazz with looping rhythms and ripped street preaching. Like William Burroughs backed by Miles Davis on a base of Suicide. There is no possible option to think that this record comes from anywhere else but New York, when you listen to it. Housed in a scandalous gatefold sleeve.
