Sad to report that both Mystery Dick and Pestrepeller have ceased musical activities, although that’s not to say you’ve heard the last of us, as there’s a substantial backlog of recorded material worthy of being made public. The Pestrepeller / My Cat Is An Alien picture disc appears to be stuck in limbo, but you can hear excerpts from two as-yet-unreleased albums – Pestrepeller’s Alphabet of Daggers and Mystery Dick’s Single Angel – on Resonance 104.4 FM this coming Thursday.
The tracks will feature in the weekly comics programme, Strip, this week’s theme being “Stand Up Comics: Music and Performance by Small Press Artists and Writers”. Tune in at 5pm on the radio (if you’re in London) or on the Internet (if you’re not).
