July 12 street date. Dead Bob is the solo incarnation of John Wright, drummer of long time and apparently legendary (but now retired) Canadian punk band NoMeansNo.
Wright has spent 50 years drumming, 45 years songwriting, 30 years touring, 3 years helping robots play punk rock, 30 years brewing, and a lifetime playing music - in more bands than you can count on one hand. "Life Like" was recorded and produced by Wright in the wilds of British Columbia, and while he primarily wrote and performed it himself, he can't take all of the credit, having engaged the help of several friends including Byron Slack (Invasives), Kristy Lee Audette (Rong), Ford Pier (The Ford Pier Vengeance Trio, D.O.A., Rheostatics), Selina Martin, and his son Aidan Wright, as well as two old collaborations with his brother Rob in the writer's chair. As might be expected, the songs roll out cohesively but defy the cookie cutter pigeon holes, so "genre" is a tricky one to convey, but one thing that is not unclear is it is not to be listened to quietly! The material on "Life Like" spans decades - and there's lots more in the vault!
