MK Ultra is a San Francisco quartet led by singer and guitarist
John Vanderslice that plays ultra-catchy Brit-pop bouncing with Who-grade
energy.
MK Ultra (Artichoke, 1994) and
Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Artichoke, 1995)
are generic collections of tuneful tunes that do not stick for longer than
three minutes.
Complex arrangements of piano, cello and violin highlight
The Dream Is Over (Artichoke, 1999), a reunion of sort after the
original line-up dissolved.
Red Cross and I Miss The War are representative of their
adult pop.
In Britain they would have been stars.
MK Ultra's John Vanderslice released many solo albums of lo-fi pop:
Mass Suicide Occult Figurines (2000),
Time Travel Is Lonely (Barsuk) (2001),
Life and Death Of An American Fourtracker (2002),
Cellar Door (Barsuk, 2004),
Pixel Revolt (Barsuk, 2005),
Suddenly It All Went Dark (2006),
Emerald City (Barsuk, 2007),
Romanian Names (Dead Oceans, 2009).
He also played on
Death Cab For Cutie's The Photo Album (2002),
Mates Of State's Team Boo(2003),
Okkervil River's Down The River Of Golden Dreams (2003),
etc.
