Dream Turns Sour

A DREAM TURNS SOUR might be #35 in the long Tiger Lillies' release catalog, but there is something absolutely unique about it. It is the first Tiger Lillies' album to talk about an actual fact: World War One. The Tiger Lillies' songwriter, founder and front man, Martyn Jacques usually draws his inspiration from the gutters of his own imagination. But never before has he been inspired by anything as real and political as a war. And never before has he used the exact words of others in his songs, without being tempted to write his own lyrics instead. A DREAM TURNS SOUR is a bricolage of English and German World War One poems, transformed into an angry yet lyrical set of songs. The album was recorded in London's Rooster Studios and Space Eko East in 2014. Martyn Jacques is on vocals, accordion, piano and guitar, Adrian Stout on double-bass, musical saw, theremin and jaw harp, Mike Pickering on drums and percussion and guest musician Paul-Ronnie Angel on bouzouki, banjo and slide guitar.
