From Revolt of the Apes:
“Man, I Had A Dreadful Flightâ€
We have no specific knowledge of Mr. Peter Holmstrom’s abilities as a pilot, given his background is in aural-hysterics, rather than aeronautics. True, as a guitarist, he has been a co-pilot on the long, strange flight of The Dandy Warhols for years, though lately we’ve seen him entering an entirely new cruising altitude, with Pete International Airport.
With a recently released album by Custom Made Music, it’s a good time to land at Pete International Airport – a name which represents the dream, the band, the album and (one can assume) the headspace of Mr. Holmstrom. Eleven different flight patterns – with air traffic control assistance from members of The Warlocks, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and Jsun Adams of The Upsidedown – fill the sky with supersonic rock and roll, the kind that makes your stomach drop every now and again, but knowing without question that you’ll enjoy a smooth landing.
