Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet
Dim The Lights Chill The Ham CD
Twenty-plus years after their last reverb trail dissipated, the remains of Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet have reconstituted.
The Men were first reanimated in 2012 and have been semi-active since, revealing a stature and distinct influence that has only grown since their original incarnation.
Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet existed originally between 1984 and 1995, and released three albums and twelve singles, appeared on numerous compilations, toured extensively throughout North America and the UK, were one of the first Canadian bands to record a Peel Session for the BBC, backed B-52's vocalist Fred Schneider on his "Just Fred" album, and scored a couple of feature films and the television series Kids in the Hall.
Recent years have seen them named as finalists in Toronto''s daily newspaper "Best Toronto Band Ever", and be indicted into the mysterious Independent Music Hall of Fame for being "true Independent pioneers".
After years of being out-of-print, the original three Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet albums, - Savvy Show Stoppers, Dim The Lights Chill The Ham and Sport Fishin' - are finally re-issued - with a wealth of bonus tracks and detailed liner notes too.
