On June 29th Tess Parks & Anton Newcombe release the results of their exciting collaborative effort entitled I Declare Nothing. It is an enticing and tempting creation that combines Newcombe’s legendary psychedelica with Tess Park’s smoldering vocals. This is Park’s second release and Newcombe’s 15th full length release. A relative newcomer Parks more than holds her own alongside the veteran musician Newcombe, together they have produced an engaging release.
The project that became I Declare Nothing had its beginning when Newcombe and Parks started to swap ideas late last year on Twitter. The two had become acquainted through Alan McGee. Things progressed with the two deciding to collaborate on a full length release. The record was co written and co produced by both. In discussing working with Newcombe, Parks has said that “He is a friend and a mentor… he is really into helping people".
On I Declare Nothing Newcombe’s skills as the master of American Psychdelica mix with Tess Parks hypnotic smolder resulting in a heady concoction. I Declare Nothing starts off with Wehmut German for wistfulness, the word’s meaning being reflected in the tune, a great folky psychedelic opener. BJM fans will find much to like on this track. Parks voice is a spectacular fit to Newcombe’s sonic vibe.
Cocaine Cat is a song Parks stated that she had been incubating for a long time. It is a song full of smooth swagger and swirling slow mo psychedelic rock. There is audio magic going on here as Tess’s hazy hallucinogenic vocals blend with Newcombe’s stellar musicality. A definite “don’t miss track” on the recording. Peace Defrost utilizes a crystal clean guitar rift over fuzz reverb, with Tess’s gritty vocal performing aloft making for a woozy track.
