Matthew P. Hopkins
and
Chris Schueler
were
Vincent Over the Sink
and
22 Coloured Bull-Terriers
was their 23-track opus.
"Think about music, but then dig a hole."
Hidden beneath an astoundingly diverse range of experimental and DIY output by Hopkins (
The Bowles
,
Naked on the Vague
; Penultimate Press, Vittelli, Kye) and Schueler (The Bowles; Kye) is the disorienting, psychedelic mess of Vincent Over the Sink's
22 Coloured Bull-Terriers
. Written between 2005 and 2007 in Australia's Blue Mountains, Sydney, and Melbourne, its limited 2008 cassette release was lauded by those who heard it and lusted after by those who hadn't. This 2015 reissue, remastered by
Mikey Young
, comes in the form of a double-vinyl gatefold designed by Hopkins. Ten years on from its conception,
22 Coloured Bull-Terriers
is still a rollicking, psychotic, and kaleidoscopic dream that demands reinterpretation on every listen. Made of 23 dazzling lo-fi vignettes and songs that range from tender spoken and vocal excursions ("Number Theory") to acoustic and instrumental sketches ("Santa Maria"), lullaby duets ("Blackbird" and "Rainblame"), and devastating, fleshed-out, no-new-wave songwriting ("Mice in the Ocean" and "Horses Screaming"). Schueler and Hopkins formed Vincent Over the Sink in 2001 and offered little in the way of heralded releases. The project lurked in the shadows of the Australian east coast scene. Even the 2008 cassette release of
22 Coloured Bull-Terriers
saw no Vincent Over the Sink shows and only one (excellent) street press interview given by Schueler. Their most penetrating music came on a 7" on
Graham Lambkin
's Kye label in 2011, sounding like a terrifying washed-out DIY chamber music record. Sadly, it was released posthumously in memory of Schueler who had passed away a year earlier. What little material had arisen from this long partnership would be all the world was left with. These 23 tracks capture one part of the southern zeitgeist in the same way Flying Nun's early archive did. Vincent Over the Sink were two mates who could have been trying to record a
Mick Hobbs
record in their garage. The album mirrors
The Shadow Ring
's
Put the Music in Its Coffin
. It's a work full of the forlorn, dark humor in
Pink Reason
's alienating lyrics.
22 Coloured Bull-Terriers
is all of this but none of it and Another Dark Age is extremely proud to present it with all the fanfare it deserves.
