The DissociativesThe Dissociatives is an Australian band consisting of Daniel Johns of Silverchair and Australian dance producer Paul Mac. Their debut single "Somewhere Down The Barrel" entered the Australian Top 40 charts on debut on March 15, 2004 and was one of the five most played tracks on Australian radio in March. Silverchair has sold more albums in Australia in the 1990s than any other Australian artist, and the debut album The Dissociatives is expected to sell well when it is released in April 2004. "I Can't Believe It's Not Rock" Daniel Johns and Paul Mac met in 1997 when Paul Mac remixed "Freak" off Silverchair's Freak Show album. The two became friends and Paul Mac worked on the subsequent Silverchair albums Neon Ballroom and Diorama. The two worked on the experimental "I Can't Believe It's Not Rock" EP released in 2000. The making of The Dissociatives album In mid 2003, Daniel Johns and Paul Mac got together to produce the album recording the basic tracks in London and finishing it off in Sydney and Newcastle. The pair produced all the instrumental tracks and vocals themselves with Johns writing the lyrics and recording them in Newcastle. The pair described the music and lyrics in the April 2004 Australian edition of Rolling Stone. "The music is, for me, a combination of excitement, happiness, rambunctiousness and vicaciousness, done to whimsy," Johns said. "I'd add with a hint of melancholy, but it's more outweighed by joy," added Mac. Discography External links Dissociatives, The *
