BLUE DAHLIA MYSPACE

Best I can describe them is a cross between the Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance and the soundtrack to a silent film, which is what they do with stunning excellence. They have built a decent sized following by composing original soundtracks to old public domain silent films of the 20's. Their favorite subject is Buster Keaton, which they do amazing soundtracks to his classic films "The General" and "The Naviagator". We just saw Blue Dahlia do another Keaton classic "Seven Chances"; it's great, spirited theatrical music, plus all the bells, penny whistles and sound FX used for silent films, all blended with sweet, haunting vocals, echo drenched guitars and inventive polycultural drumming. This Wednesday, we go to see them perform their soundtrack with a showing of the old Clara bow Film "IT". All proceeds go to support NPR in Kalamazoo.

Seriously folks, if you've been digging Burial's "Untrue", you will flip for Blue Dahlia's latest album, "This Floating World". It has some of the same haunting feel as Burial, but achieved with purely organic instrumentation; very unique and cool. They have a clip of the title track on their MySpace site, and it is nothing short of amazing (It's 11 minutes long, but worth every second!). They would fit really well on one of Warren's radio playlists.]]> The Weekly Listening Thread (Feb 11) http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=956&Focus=21708#Comment_21708 2008-02-11T19:56:11-08:00 2013-06-18T22:49:57-07:00 hankinstien http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=1878 I've been going crazy for a band called "The Exit."

Really different from the Metal Opera, a bit less Power Metal-y and more symphonic. No central story like the Opera, but it's still a fuckin brilliant metal concept album.

Playing a lot of Rob Zombie, Rammstein, and an unlabeled mixer of Scandinavian metal in the car, and Last.fming stuff under an "Uncle Tupelo" station, which pulls up a lot of silly stuff.

Found a couple of high-energy Celtic-influenced bands called Fathom and the Scythians that i am looking for more of.

Tried desperately to find CD or digital recordings of one of my favorite bands of the 90s, a Tucson-based band called The Sidewinders, found out they changed their name to the Sand Rubies, but still having trouble finding actual music by them.

"In 1929, the ancient map "Piri Reis" was discovered in Constantinople. The map is extraordinary because it depicts bays and islands on the Antarctic coast which have been concealed under ice for at least 6,000 years. What civilization was capable of such exploration that long ago? On "Cartographer", we imagine that these explorers were from the tiny island of Numa in the Southern Indian Ocean. As advanced seafarers, they navigated every corner of the Earth. We have created a language unique to them and tell stories through song that describe their creation, discoveries and ultimate demise."

@ Kernowdrunk, thanks for the rec. for Kemialliset Ystavat. That plus Warren's inclusion of Fricara Picchu on Whitechapel Radio led me to drop 57 Euros on the Fonal Records site last night.

Worked all last night and much of today on a new sampler for radio and for SXSW, coming up next month in Austin. Here's a link to the jukebox of it:
