Kris Thompson from Prefab Messiahs Live From Wormtown
This week from 2003, as we prepared for the 25th Anniversary of Wormtown, Kris "Trip"Thompson stopped by wdoa.com to discuss the history and upcoming performance of The Prefab Messiahs. Formed at Clark University in 1982 with Xeth "Xerox" Feinberg and Mike "Doc" Michaud they joined together to play an updated version of Psychedelic music for the 1980's. Along with their Casio unit called Ringo, they played gigs at Xit and Ralph's and live on the airwaves of WCUW for a fund drives. A recording of songs both live and in studio released on cassette quickly sold out at shows. Disbanding around 1983, the members all moved onto other careers. Then they returned with a vengeance in 2012 releasing an LP of recordings entitled "Peace, Love and Alienation". Catching the ear of Burger Records, they went on to release "Keep Your Stupid Dreams Alive" on 10" vinyl and CD in 2015 and "Psychsploitation Today " CD in 2017 to rave reviews. They also have a vast catalog of videos to accompany their recordings available on YouTube. They continue to record to this day and hopefully will have a new disc out soon.
