Great news for excavators of obscure lo-fi art-punk/garage-pop! Anthology
Recordings, the highly regarded all-digital reissues label, has just uncovered and released the Prefabs' comprehensive 'Devolver' anthology for all to grok.
Other fine "obscure" artists who've been reissued by
Anthology include The Monks, Simply Saucer, R. Stevie Moore, The Red Crayola, Half
Japanese, D.R. Hooker, Destroy All Monsters, Young Marble Giants, Merrell Fankhauser, The
Factory, Faine Jade, and Ya Ho Wha 13.
from the Anthology website: "Recorded in Worcester,
MA from '81 to '83, 'Devolver' by the Prefab Messiahs is a fantastic glimpse into a little known Northeastern
scene of weirdo underground rock. Featuring regional personalities including production by Bobb Trimble,
'Devolver' manages to perfectly execute the difficult joining of punk, psych, and
garage."

Check out this video: The Prefab Messiahs cartoon show! - "Desperately Happy"Animator Xeth Feinberg has chosen to revisit the misadventures of our 1982 Wormtown (Worcester MA) band The Prefab Messiahs in a cool new 3+ minute cartoon. The charmingly flawed 1960s Beatles cartoon series is an obvious touchstone. This will be the first in a series, I hope!
