Chris Connelly – Stowaway – Compact Disc

Chris Connelly’s Stowaway is a compelling addition to his diverse body of work. Released in 2019, the album showcases Connelly’s ability to seamlessly blend various musical elements, drawing from his extensive experience in industrial, alternative, and experimental music.

Stowaway is marked by Connelly’s introspective lyricism and emotive vocals, offering a collection of songs that explore themes of personal reflection, love, and the passage of time. The album demonstrates Connelly’s versatility as an artist, as he navigates through different sonic landscapes, incorporating electronic elements, acoustic textures, and poignant melodies.

Tracks such as “Daredevil” and “Stowaway” exemplify Connelly’s songwriting prowess, combining introspective lyrics with engaging musical arrangements. The album as a whole reflects Connelly’s willingness to experiment with sound and genre while maintaining a cohesive and engaging listening experience.

As an artist with a rich and varied career, including his involvement with bands like Ministry and The Revolting Cocks, “Stowaway” stands out as a testament to Chris Connelly’s continued artistic evolution. It provides listeners with a contemporary glimpse into his creative journey and reaffirms his status as a respected figure in the alternative music scene.

While his contributions to Ministry, the Revolting Cocks, and Pigface have earned him a reputation as a ferocious industrial rocker, singer/songwriter Chris Connelly’s solo career has explored softer music that’s more in line with Nick Cave, David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, and the later work of Scott Walker. Born and raised in Edinbourough, Scotland, Connelly listened to the glam sounds of David Bowie, Roxy Music, and T. Rex up to the point punk exploded on the scene.

When he was only 14 he joined Rigor Mortis, a punky outfit that would morph into the experimental industrial band Fini Tribe. As Fini Tribe evolved, their use of spoken word samples and raw-sounding synthesizers brought them in line with the output of the Chicago-based Wax Trax! records, original home to Front 242, Meat Beat Manifesto, and Ministry.

Hoping they would be interested in releasing a single, Connelly brought Fini Tribe’s music to Wax Trax!’s London office. It was there he ran into Al Jourgensen, Paul Barker, and Bill Rieflin, all Ministry members or friends who were now working on the over-the-top side project the Revolting Cocks. By the end of the day he’d recorded a demo with the three, and it wasn’t long before he was leaving Fini Tribe to join the Revolting Cocks and make contributions to Ministry along with other Wax Trax! projects like the Cabaret Voltaire/Jourgensen project Acid Horse.
