Brightblack Morning Light are here - some MP3s & stuff
DOWNLOAD: FADER 57 podcast w/ TVOTR & BBML (MP3)
DOWNLOAD: Brightblack Morning Light - Hologram Buffalo (MP3)
DOWNLOAD: Brightblack Morning Light - Oppressions Each (MP3)

As previously noted, Brightblack Morning Light play Le Poisson Rouge tonight/Monday and then again in NYC on Tuesday at Southpaw. Their new album, Motion To Rejoin, is out now on Matador (2 songs for download above) and you might have seen them on one side of the cover of the new FADER (if not, the picture is right up there too with the same issue's podcast). Cokemachineglow says,
The criticisms leveled against Brightblack Morning Light are so obvious that they seem almost underhanded: yes, Nabob Shineywater and Rachael Hughes create ridiculous myths about themselves; yes, they're obsessed with crystals and rainbows and every new age/hippie cliche out there; yes, they only play one speed and it's really really slow. Every review seems to start with the backstory, mention offhand the band's extraordinary ability to incorporate soul and blues into a gorgeous syrupy drone, then attach a 3/5 or something as if they're obliged as perceptive critics to dock marks due to all the bullshit...All dates and a video below...

well this was a rather productive day, i actually got quite a bit accomplished. the memo about using the fax machine for personal gain was extremely informative and i replaced not one but TWO water coolers for female employees as to prevent them from injury. perused the internet minimally, worked maximumally. all things considered, not-a-bad-monday.

I saw them last night and it was really amazing, I think they are going to be one of those bands that psych collectors are going to go crazy over in a couple years. I was really surprised how much better live they have gotten, I saw them about two years ago and last night was way better. The new drummer and vibes player is a great addition and the new material is just as good as anything they have ever done.
