Recorded almost entirely in quarantine, the record’s songs chart the beauty and strangeness that domestic life can conjure, at once perfectly ordinary and deceptively mystical. Long the enigmatic moniker of Portland’s Jesse Carsten, Half Shadow’s new songs expand the project’s intimate poetics into something more encompassing, without ever losing a sense of tenderness. Intimate folk songs magnify into anthemic chant-alongs, lo-fi dirges, and primal pop experiments. Genres blend with a subtly psychedelic grace, with Carsten’s voice delivering dream-laden poems at the center of the sound. Listeners are sung into an interiorized sphere: an otherworldly landscape of tension, languor, and mystery. From the place of home a whole cosmos fans out.&nbsp;Featuring contributions from such west-coast luminaries as Zach Burba (Iji, Mega Bog, Dear Nora), Jem Murciano (The Ghost Ease),&nbsp;Julian Morris (Layperson, Post Moves), and mastering from Kevin Christopher (Oh Rose, Ancient Pools), the album’s songs emerge in vivid technicolor,&nbsp;engaging listeners in a process of seeing our world, our selves, and in this case the homes we haunt, with new, uncanny vision. https://dove-cove.com/American-Friend-Sound-Under-Rock Wed, 01 Sep 2021 19:51:11 +0000 dove-cove.com https://dove-cove.com/American-Friend-Sound-Under-Rock American FriendSound Under RockDC012Available 9/9/21Album artwork by Sarah Smileyto purchase; venmo @ DoveCove or paypal sophierweil @ gmail(pay as gift and please include mailing address and what item you are ordering)$12 ppd in USA$22 ppd in Canada$32 ppd in rest of the worldListen and Download Sound Under Rock here <img width="3024" height="3024" width_o="3024" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dce3c4dc652674c22d8d42eaccaa16a9fbaa51f2641eff4fe0c806b734e7d8ba/IMG_9403.jpg" data-mid="118337952" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dce3c4dc652674c22d8d42eaccaa16a9fbaa51f2641eff4fe0c806b734e7d8ba/IMG_9403.jpg" /><img width="1818" height="1228" width_o="1818" height_o="1228" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ec1269afd55f6ad274f79a03744cd9c87f3f2566c486e79d3ee07c104ba604bf/rock1.jpeg" data-mid="118432178" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ec1269afd55f6ad274f79a03744cd9c87f3f2566c486e79d3ee07c104ba604bf/rock1.jpeg" /> Adam’s drums keep the blood flowing and Sarah’s bass holds the body upright, Jana’s guitar reacts to the confines of rhythm and their lyrics pinch. They pull open the curtains and let the sun flood the room. Taking note of the dog hair in the corners and how your stomach feels in an unrecognizable moment, a good time to look at comfortable patterns and self soothe with “Sound under Rock”, it has some solutions. There is an unspecificity to the content, no proper noun spoken, an aura of place. There are mountains, there is a sky, there is a bridge, there is a woman, there is an obstacle, the context is the in between space of before and after the event. It has its teeth on the brink of being bared, not to bite at you but to warn that life is brief; so why not tell it like it is? American Friend came together 2018 in Texas.

Unfurling a riddle, fiddling with the knob, the key is the guitar, bent out of shape, copied at a Home Depot kiosk. It never works on the first try anyways and to recreate the experience from before - is useless, always different. “A-1238” pushes and pulls between out-of-focus underwater vision to a snap of crystal clarity, pin pointing the light. Finally, becoming looped in when the key clicks and the door opens. Bill Nace is an artist and musician based in Philadelphia PA.

This is the blue mats we used at tumbling school sound. The rhythm of the tumble dryer turning over. This is the dry heat come-to sound of tunes. Used my head like a rubber stamp to score the thumping pulse in ink. Cartoon graphic bees and hummingbirds, sparrows, butterflies with pastry powder grimace disguises piled eight or nine into shiny little convertibles, el caminos, momma's hatchback doing giddy donuts under spinning skies of fizzy stars. This is my head, the smallest planet. This is the color jelly of minor concussion but no big deal head wound sound of&nbsp;songs. This is the clown creature of fluid limits. The shadows and trailing shimmers in foggy vision. These are the welts and grown features of mutant lemons. The pop of changing pressure in the skull. Fragrant yellow peel and pith and then trapped inside there's a ripening brain. These fill up like water balloons full of tears and drop onto the driveway. This is the smoosh of them. This is the tire tread kissed smile of smeared mind. Bright lemon yellow, brain matter and pumping blood. This is the can't catch me now sound&nbsp;of living signal. Thought you said, "single." This is the tank top painting show. This show has characters from other shows just crammed happily in, cuz we're all headed to the same place anyway and who's keeping count at this late point. Can't feel my legs with another adult body in my lap, but no biggie we land outside the spot sooner than later and spill from the back seat like canned laughter. "This old thing?" Didn't think the joke was all that funny, but per usual-- the&nbsp;dupes in the studio audience never can contain themselves. Anyway, this is the darling face behind a leering mask. The cranberry sauce sliced with the can lid. These are some echoes that last, splashing after a vanishing smile of planned evening.

Its a wildness that is only known to those that have endured an embittered winter and can truly rejoice when spring arrives. Its a late blooming country song, heavy sunset and heartache, a hustling lifestyle, broken down vans and tapes stacked on the dashboard. Jason Miller has gone by many names, most know him as Chouser, Mutinerango Sun, part of Ginseng Boys and here finally publicly documented as Chevrolet Pile. The first time I encountered Chevy was a few years back, a clearing in the deep woods of Maine, “The Crunchy Western Commotion of…” is a slice of that time. Cameo’s take place on this relic from Charles “Taterbug” Free, Bradley Highnam, Andrew Storrs, Duncan Moore, Evan Hill and Dylan Thadani… it’s a real celebration of this country wide dug out many of us are familiar with.

This tape is a dark and comforting anthem, what it is to be a body knocking up against the sharp man made edges we live in, singing praise to creature comforts and the searching of solid ground in a world where everything feels like it’s on fire. The recounting of Shel Silverstein’s “Ma and God”, the repetition in guitar licks, the songs propel and cut through the air, an honest search in uneasiness. There is no posturing in this special package and there are no masks. Mayako XO’s s/t is Gernsbacher’s first solo release. Recorded and produced in the spring of 2018 by Lou Rogai.

The sweeping, clawing viola and reverse cymbal - a drone on your nerve endings and deep belly dwelling, feels like danger is brewing and all of a sudden a calm wind passes through. Preoccupied in countless collaborations (most notably - Hex, Brute Heart and Myrrh), Jackie Beckey has been ever present in the Minneapolis DIY scene since the early 2000’s&nbsp; - with a genesis in punk ideals and free information, she has been a heavy hand in DIY spaces and in creating an intentional and accommodating environment for other musicians in Minneapolis. Altamira’s s/t is Beckey’s first deep exploration in working on her own and her first solo release. Recorded February of 2018 at Albatross in Minneapolis, MN.
