about

Hillbilly bedlamite, MAD MAX ELLIOTT, returns with a brand new single! "King Lear Was Here" finds Max spinning a cautionary allegory about the excesses of Shakespearian monarchy over a driving post punk dance floor rhythm. On the flip Max takes Bob Dylan's classic "Tombstone Blues" and injects it with a strong dose of hurly-burly hullabaloo. Aided here by Joey Tucci and Dead Luke of the Non Travellin' Band, it's your first taste of Max's upcoming new album GREASY MAGICK, coming later this year on Nudie Records

Mad Max Elliott Madison, Wisconsin

Mad Max Elliott is the latest project from Madison-based singer/songwriter Max Elliott. Beginning his career as a folksinger, Max later played in bands around the area (Zola Jesus, Absinthe Minds, the Lonesome Savages) before focusing on his one man rock'n'roll band, Mad Max Elliott. Max creates a sound that's equal parts 'crazed' hillbilly and primitive early garage rock. ... more
