RELEASE DATE

This is only the second proper full-length LP by this Portland Maine-based duo, although there are vast arrays of CD-Rs and split releases littering their wake. After spending time with both the cosmically-shifting
Cerberus Shoals
and the folkily psychedelic
Fire On Fire
,
Caleb Mukerin
and
Colleen Kinsella
decided to opt for something more personal and hermetic. Thus, we have
Big Blood
. The band's multi-phasic discography has thus far reminded people of everything from the
Pärson Sound
to
Opal
to
Portishead
at different moments, yet none of these thumbnails comes close to capturing the elegant mystery of their essence. Sometimes electric guitar lines weevil hauntingly in the aether while acoustics strum quietly up front. At other points, muted chimes of freedom push against vocals and cloppety rhythms that recall
White Noise
's "Making Love Without Sound." Still others vibe early
Comus
or
The Third Ear Band
. In all, the scent of smoke hangs as heavy over this record as any we've heard. And friend, we've heard a few. Edition of 500; includes download code.
