BLABBERMOUTH.NET - CAÏNA's 'Mourner' Album To Arrive In June

Mourner' is an oppressive and challenging listening experience. Still having certain characteristics of its predecessor, 'Mourner' sees Brignell continue to tread disjointed black metal ground, but now plays more with his sound palette by incorporating more sounds of 4AD post-rock, shoegaze, neo-folk, acoustic sing-along, and drone into this diverse mix.

Presenz is not for the faint-at-heart or those married tightly to traditional definitions. Creating its own sonic universe by marrying real time improvisational interaction, abstruse form, and sonic expansion through live sampling and post-production manipulation, it’s a boldly adventurous record that is sure to rank as one of the best of 2007.

File-13: The Poison Arrows 'Straight Into The Drift'

With the break up of Atombombpocketknife, singer/guitarist Justin Sinkovich began releasing remixes and solo avant electronic tracks as The Poison Arrows on compilations in the US and Europe, and then on 2004’s Trailer Park EP. Restless from solo work, Sinkovich began collaborating. Bassist Patrick Morris soon joined the band. It was his first band since his departure from Don Caballero in 1999 after the release of the seminal What Burns Never Returns. Adam Reach joined behind the drum kit and Chicago’s The Poison Arrows lineup was solidified.

Tied & Tickled Trio

Listen to a new track: Tied & Tickled Trio

New album: blog.myspace.com/tiedandtickledtrio:

tied and tickled trio
aelita
cd/lp
streetdate:
01.06.2007 (gas & row), 19.06.2007 (usa)

There's no brass section, nowhere. There are no jazzthetics, in that special sense how the Tied & Tickled Trio has made them audible, at least in German guitarbased underground. As well as in Electronica of the late
1990ies and the first years of the 21st century. I don't want to talk about indietronic here. Even though the term "indie" still matches the Tied & Tickled Trio.
Concerning attitude and disposition, concerning the delimitation of sounds, the renunciation of expectations – also with regard to themselves.
"Aelita" starts beyond all expectations. Initially, only one concert was planned, at the Hausmusik festival in Munich, in October 2006. A set was played there, that
was extemporized for the most part, setting out into a past future. A melancholy journey, visiting former visions, futurism, science and science fiction.
"Chlebnikov", the title of one of the tracks, is named after the poet of the Russian Avantgarde who died of starvation within the crisis of the 1920ies. "A rocket
debris clouds drift" is the name of another one. The dark side of the moon.
The concert's remains were traces of euphoria – within the audience as well as within the band. That's why this album exists today, created only in three time
three days. Recording, arranging, mixing. As rough and open as possible and still very concentrated, minimal, melancholy and excessive. A slow and well-travelled
dub, "tamaghis", echo-chamber-music, the orbit as sounding space.
There are further three interpretations of the title track; they are all melancholy miniatures: xylophone, glockenspiel, melotrone dismal sounds. One
might think of a space capsule, that gradually loses its contact to the earth. Or, vice versa, of people that stick to the ground all the more. The silence after the
storms. An obituary of an utopia. "You said tomorrowyesterday".
On "Aelita" the Tied & Tickled Trio are CasparBrandner, Andreas Gerth, Markus and Micha Acher andCarl Oesterhelt.
A band that listens very carefully to what their sounds do. A band that permits them to besurprised by themselves. This might be the very last
space-metaphor of this album: the Tied & Tickled Trio.
