Charlie Megira Tomorrows Gone Vinyl

The bastard love child of Elvis and Lux Interior, Israeli guitarist Charlie Megira brewed a heady amalgam of ’50s trash rock, surf-y tremolo, and reverb-drenched goth during his all-too-brief 44 trips around the sun.

He recorded seven albums worth of material in 15 years, primarily issued on CD-R, most of which is now unreadable or in a landfill.

Tomorrow’s Gone is the first collection of Megira’s work; a 24-track double album accompanied by a lavish booklet that documents his tragic existence. Armed with only an Eko guitar, a black tuxedo, and his signature wrap-around shades, Charlie was a mold-breaking artist who disintegrated while we were all staring at our phones.
