Vregedonomy

Vregedonomy: A terminal state of entropy and craziness manifest in the temporal world … and brazenly chowed down with a runcible spoon. This, The Re-Mains fifth full-length album, is a cyclical work, as it brings back to the band Leigh Ivin, a founding member, in dual roles as player and producer. Its title derives from a concept coined by an artist pal of mine – Vregedonomy describes a state of entropy and craziness, a fair description of both the contemporary world and The Re-mains’ haphazard and action-packed career. Since the catastrophic accident in 2006 that nearly killed the band we’ve been touring less frequently and mainly overseas. Vregedonomy signals a new chapter in the band’s history. It’s ten songs explore the country rock and roll milieu and our place in it, they chart the band’s emotional and professional arcs along a continuum of lives which veer in and out of the road, in and out of music, in and out of being a Re-main. credits released August 8, 2012 All songs by Mick Daley except Devilhand − Shaun Butcher and Mick Daley − and Didn’t Mean It − Daley/Ivin.
