There is a hot new relationship that has started up, and it’s a hell of a lot more interesting than any relationship out of Hollywood – that of Heart of the Rat and Dead Salesmen. Heart of the Rat is a brand new independent record label based out of Ballarat that is committed to the art of making a true record. There is no bowing to trends here. There is no influence merely to serve the popular vote. They’re all about musical purity. Who better, then, to start up a relationship with then the Dead Salesmen, a band with their heart in Ballarat? The team is set to record 1998’s much-loved and cherished ‘Amen’ on limited edition, deluxe 180g 12˝ vinyl. The Karova, Ballarat – February 6. Mark with the Sea supports.
