Chad Vangaalen - Shrink Dust

SHRINK DUST is the fifth album by Calgary, Alberta's Chad VanGaalen. The album is, in Chad's view, a country record. It is also partially a score to Chad's soon-to-be released, animated, sci-fi feature, TRANSLATED LOG OF INHABITANTS ('It's like Bob and Doug McKenzie in space,' says Chad). The album is infused with pedal-steel guitar; themes of death, transformation, fear, benign evil, and the eccentricity of love; and the influences of the Flying Burrito Brothers, and the sci-fi mysticism of the 1980s graphic novel THE INCAL by Alejandro Jodorowsky and Moebius.
