Milton Melvin Croissant III – The Song Remains the Same / High Plains Gothic, 7″

Milton Melvin Croissant III is a labelmate of Joseph Childress’ over at Ash From Sweat. He makes some heavy psychedelic folk tunes. Music for the painted Colorado deserts… subtle tribal grooves and echoing electric guitars beneath a distant powerful voice. We are lucky enough to be asked to sell his Vinyl debut at the Endless Nest Store

On the Record:
After a handful of self-released CDR and tapes, Ash From Sweat is pleased to release the vinyl debut of Denver’s mastermind songwriter, Milton Melvin Croissant III. His band may have split for Portland, but Buddy soldiered on with an array of loops, beats and other oddities to keep the full band sound. The results are this fantastic seven-inch single that combines the best of Milton’s songwriting with his experimental side, while drawing energy and imagery from wanderlust for Colorado’s high plains. As with all Ash From Sweat releases, the importance of art is not overlooked. Cover and insert drawings by MMCIII, and screen-printed by any number of AFS volunteers. 300 copies exist on black vinyl.

MMCIII is on the level… check out this parody of Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U” that tickled the ribs of A.V. Club at The Onion.
