Velvet Crush
Velvet Crush is a power pop band from Rhode Island that achieved prominence in indie-rock circles in the early- and mid-1990s. The band broke up in 1996 but re-formed in 1998 and have continued to record, releasing their most recent album in 2004. Vocalist/bassist Paul Chastain and drummer Ric Menck are the band's core members, having previously worked together as Choo Choo Train, Bag-O-Shells, and The Springfields, and they share singing and songwriting duties. Guitarist Jeffrey Borchardt (of Honeybunch) played on the band's first three albums, ''In the Presence of Greatness'', ''Teenage Symphonies to God'', and ''Heavy Changes''. ''In the Presence of Greatness'' was produced by Matthew Sweet, while the second and third albums were produced by Mitch Easter.
==History==
Chastain had recorded in the mid-1980s as a solo artist and as a member of Nines and The Stupid Cupids, while Menck had been a member of The Reverbs〔〔Robbins, Ira "(Velvet Crush ), ''Trouser Press''〕 and The Paint Set.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work = Dirk's Discography Website )〕 The long association between Chastain and Menck began in 1987 with the indie pop band Choo Choo Train, who released two singles and an EP and were signed to the British indie label The Subway Organization.〔 The duo also recorded for Sarah Records as The Springfields, and for Bus Stop as Bag-O-Shells.〔 Both had been based in Chicago, but they relocated to Rhode Island around this time. Opting for a more rock-oriented
power pop sound, the duo formed Velvet Crush in 1989, with Jeffery Borchardt of Honeybunch.〔Strong, Martin C. (2003) "Velvet Crush", in ''The Great Indie Discography'', Canongate, ISBN 1-84195-335-0〕 After three singles on Bus Stop Records, the band released a cover version of Teenage Fanclub's "Everything Flows", leading them to be signed by Creation Records in the UK, who issued the band's debut album, ''In the Presence of Greatness'', in 1991.〔 The band stayed with Creation for a second album, ''Teenage Symphonies to God'', released in 1994 (on Sony Records in the US).〔 The group members spent the next few years acting as Stephen Duffy's backing band, recording two albums with the singer.〔 Velvet Crush returned in 1998 with the ''Heavy Changes'' album, now on the Action Musik label. Another album, ''Free Expression'', followed in 1999, by which time the band was reduced to a duo of Chastain and Menck. ''Soft Sounds'' followed in 2002, and ''Stereo Blues'' in 2004.
