BONF 028LP
|
The English blues revival was surely functional in developing a new series of performer and sub-genres. The hard rock revolution began from the power-chord of Cream and the likes, leading the way for a new "British invasion." Short lived four-piece Bedlam released one single studio album in 1973 led by the intense power of drummer extraordinaire Cozy Powell (Black Sabbath, Whitesnake, Rainbow, Jeff Beck). Their self-titled debut was enlightened by other amazing performers: vocalist Frank Aiello (formerly of pop duo The Truth) and brothers Dave (the guitarist who had recently replaced Robin Trower in Procol Harum) and Denny Ball (bass). The album was produced by Felix Pappalardi of Mountain fame. This is soulful proto-heavy metal at its best!

BAREHANDS 003EP
|
Bedlam is a collaboration between Bare Hands associates Daniel and Julian dedicated to the fringes of the techno universe. "Bumerang" hits right in the head with its relentless kick drum and intense, manic synth-lines. "Eshelonka" is an exploration of '90s simplicity and jam feel; a tool for the late hours. "Obvalka" presents itself as a gentle slow-mover, tentatively cooking up the audience yet playfully introducing rougher soundscapes. "Betushnye" features sophisticated, electroid drum patterns submerged in depressing drones and uncanny samples. Limited run of 300 on 140-gram black vinyl; includes hand-numbered postcard artwork on raw 180g paper.
