Kurt Heasley is 34 years old and over 6ft 7 1/2 tall. He’s a single dad who counts Kevin Shields as his biggest fan. He sold over 85,000 copies of one song and appeared on Top Of The Pops when it still mattered. He’s “a hyperactive control freak with a vision of great beauty” (NME). He is an American genius and you’ve probably never heard of him. It’s about time that you did...

Knocked On The Fortune Teller's Door...

In 1996 a Lilys song 'A Nanny In Manhattan' appeared on the Levis Christmas advert. The band subsequently sold 85,000 copies of the single and appeared on Top Of The Pops, the first band to play completely live on the show for 20 years! However, things all went wrong when their recording contract was inherited by a major label’s imprint. Despite their popularity and delivery of one their finest records (The 3 Way), the band were pushed aside and near on forgotten. But you can’t stop the pop.

Mark E who?

EVERYTHING WRONG IS IMAGINARY is Lilys' 7th album and as ever the only constant is Kurt. The current count of Lilys members past and present is 72 though this is merely an estimate. Noone really knows. Members of The Icarus Line, Velocity Girl, Mazarin and Beachwood Sparks (and many many more) have all played with Lilys.

With Candy...

Not so long ago Kurt’s wife went out and didn’t come back. She might one day. For now Kurt is a single father of 3 children. He was himself expelled from high school after 42 absences. Turns out he was at home sequencing software and fiddling with editing software. There are worse things 15 year olds can do. It’s been tough bringing up the kids alone so he was glad of the helping hands of producer Mike Musammo when it came to making the new record.

EVERYTHING WRONG IS IMAGINARY sees Lilys come into their own. It doesn't sound like The Kinks or My Bloody Valentine or The Beach Boys. It just sounds like Lilys. I’ll pass on the hyperbolic bullshit. Just listen.

This is absolutely nothing like loveless. It's its own thing completely, and comparisons are kind of baffling. It's more Isn't Anything covered by the Swirlies IF the comparison must be made, because this is it's own masterpiece.The sounds of the opening track are pure bliss. bishtmomph

One of the greatest records ever recorded. I had to give it a few listens before I recognized its sheer brilliance, and it became ultra-important in my life — caring for me when I was down, rocking my face off, and able to tell that girl I had a crush on just what I thought of her. DO NOT sleep in this record. I can’t stress it enough. I hear something new with every listen … and I’ve listened thousands of times lauck
