Song: King of the Lobsters
Amoebas...and now lobsters. Hmmm... Nige and Trev claim that Professor Shylock is from outer space, that he made the human race and apparently he's got a face like a lobster. The thing is, I believe them. Nige and Trev's message for us all is clear as a murky puddle. They've given up everything for you, their house, their wife, their friends, everything...well, everything except their guitars, drums, microphones and recording equipment otherwise how on earth would this jaunty little ditty have been recorded? And now on to the song itself....Frank Fish's tirelessly creative verbal diarrhoea continues to dart and flow against the relentless backdrop of Clackie's chattering, stuttering guitars and Whale Marshall's eggy percussion. Dog barks, coughs and raspberries punctuate the jagged, snappy, cartoon rhythms. "He didn't have a drink since last November" sings FF, "...but he's still drunk all day long". That just about sums up how this song makes me feel. I am drunk on Nige and Trev...som

Song: I Believe in Nothing
Well folks, I for one believe wholeheartedly in Nige and Trev. This new N&T composition is another little gem from the quirky Oxford duo and it doesn't disappoint in any way. Frank Fish's opening religious rant informs us that he "threw a brick through the vicar's window" and his gravelly Cutteslowe snarling is perfectly balanced by snippets of Bronwyn Leonard's beautiful gospelly jazz vocal. Not sure I've ever heard Nige and Trev 'go reggae' before but 'I Believe in Nothing' most certainly slips effortlessly into a reggae feel but then before we know what's happening we're suddenly immersed in smoky jazz, with a lazy blues lick creeping in and then it's the unique full blown Nige and Trev controlled chaos, an undefined outpouring from the very gut and soul, straight from the memory of the screaming womb. "I've lost myself in the blues..." growls an emotional Frank as Bronwyn softly moans "oh you and me baby..." and they've got us, hook line and sinker and as we hang in mid air, holdi

Song: Life is Missing
My life is 100% more enriched after listening to Nige and Trev's latest
Audio masterpiece 'Life is Missing'. Yes, You've done it again lads.
Yet another stunningly unique, in-yer-face, pulsating roller coaster of a
rock song....and by 'rock' I don't mean the usual yawning, tired, predictable, regurgitated, cliched, meaningless junk that normally appears in that genre of music ....this is a fresh, spontaneous, heart-stoppingly raw and juicy slice of dirty guitar tomfoolery with pounding stop/start drums and a growling, snarling vocal that echoes the spirit of Captain Beefheart. Nige and Trev are unlike any other band I have ever heard. Always a uniquely refreshing and often challenging listening experience...make no mistake, these guys continually manage to capture moments of pure magic in their compositions. Nige and Trev are out there on their own. Total creative genius in my opinion! Bless you Mr Clack and Mr Fish and your beloved musical associates. Your sense of the absurd mak

Song: Dear Diary what a day
This has a really freakish Zappa/Beefheart vibe to it. I found it rather enjoyable.

Wow! If this is what a gallon of Guinness can do - I suggest you boys continue to drink, and drink MORE! This is an authentic blues recording that propels my rocking chair right off the verandah and into orbit around Planet Klennaar!++++++++++++++++++++ 5 stars Nige and Trev - let's have an N & T blues album!

I am told that this particular Nige and Trev composition is one of two N&T songs that are based around a Perry Smith answer-phone message - the other song being the stupendous 15 minute opus 'Message For Jimmy'. Well folks, 'Off Me F***in' 'ead Ehhh???'is considerably shorter than 15 mintes but still packs a mightily surreal Nige and Trev punch. Perry's repeated admission that he is perhaps a little off -the -wall, Frank Fish's gutteral rantings (who IS Bligh's Aunt?), Mick Clack's stuttering wah-wah guitar bursts, Paul Gibbon's backward vocals and a wonderfully funky little beat all adds up to a corker of a song. Not everyone's cup of tea I am sure. The f-word will upset a few listeners but I like it and I'm giving it 5 stars for it's freshness, it's unbounded creativity and it's reckless fun. This world needs Nige and Trev. Bless them!

Song: Dear Diary what a day
'Dear Diary' is utterly stupendous! A living breathing masterpiece of surreal 3D improvisation fusing jazz, blues, psychedelia, comedy, horror and general gibberish into one big heavenly, rambling, feverish, no-rules musical journey. A totally unique and amazing listening experience. Nige and Trev are out there on their own...highly recommended. 5 stars!!!!

I'm listening to "Complete History of Planet Earth" right now. Very cool. Reminds me of some old Zappa. I also liked "My horse......." Keep up the good work. You guys have a lot of creativity going on here. T
Yaow-yaowdah! Misery has never been so much fun. This little blues song is a delight to Ron's earlobes. Nige and Trev are the twins of tomfoolery, the sacred brace of oafs that we all need to brighten up our sorry Soundclick lives. Red shirts, leather from the stick, initials in the cement, misery, misery, misery....oh yeahhhhh. Tougher action would have been taken indeed....gloriously lazy slide licks, deliciously blue, female backing vocals and typically guttural FF rankings, rink lungs, auto-correct madness...of course I mean rantings...hurrah...huzzah...praise the lard for N&T and the endless supply of Jackdaw Cheese. Min dock!
