Wreckless Eric was one of the original Stiff artists, releasing the legendary Whole Wide World back in 1977. Since then he has made countless albums in different guises, moving between bubblegum pop, grunge, psychedelic and techno but always remaining true to the DIY spirit of his early Stiff days. His last, Bungalow Hi, released in 2004 was described by Andrew Weatherall as sounding 'like Bo Diddley trying to outdo Aphex Twin'.

Trevor Hall Hitting the Road |
This old soul infuses his songs with a deep sense of spirituality, as evidenced in the lead single "Unity," written and performed with his friend Matisyahu. The two artists were on tour together when news of the Mumbai terrorist attacks hit the media. Trevor had made two trips to India, one a pilgrimage with two monks from a Southern California temple (whom he continues to live with), the second on his own in celebration of his 21st birthday. But the sectarian violence hit close to home for Matisyahu, who knew some of those who'd been murdered in a synagogue that had been targeted by the terrorists.
"We read about it, talked about it, meditated about it, and we started writing lyrics back and forth," Trevor recalls. "On the external level, it's obviously about the unity of all beliefs. We call it by many names, but there's only one truth. But on a much deeper, internal level, it's about the mystical place in your own heart where all these things merge into one thing. So the song works both ways."
