Meanwell College is Ben Revi and Benn Hansen.
'Downshifting/Like Mushrooms' (7" + CD) is its debut record. It features 7" vinyl and CD in the one package. If you like (and if you have an Australian postal address), you can buy it here:
It costs $10, plus $2.50 postage. If you're in Adelaide, you can buy it at Big Star records. And if you're overseas, you can e-mail us. You can find the address at the end of the spiel.
Meanwell College has played with such bands as Even (VIC), Gersey (VIC), Laura (VIC), No Through Road (SA) and The Yearlings (SA). It has been filmed by Awesam TV for the Manhattan Cable Network, which broadcasts on 30 cable TV systems in the United States from Washington, DC to Sante Fe, New Mexico. It was one of the first ten bands in the country to be featured on the Triple J Unearthed jukebox. It has been labelled by Rip It Up magazine as "set to achieve great things with its debut release." Strangely enough, that said release is a meagre seriously-limited-edition two-track 7" single, 'Downshifting/Like Mushrooms', which (again as per RIU) "maybe... will be worth gazillions when [they're] megstars." And all since first gracing a stage in June 2006.
Meanwell College is, some of the time, a synthesis of erudite post-rock musicality and bittersweet pop charm. It was named after the somewhat unstable English boarding school in Louis-Ferdinand Céline's 'Mort à Crédit'. It is starting to become known for its entertaining and powerful live shows, so we hear. It likes to dance.
