collection randomized 6/1/22 - part 6

To be released February 18th, 2014 on black + white split 10" vinyl by Exploding In Sound Records.

Steve Hears Pile In Malden and Bursts Into Tears is a failed concept album about two kids living on the outskirts of Boston who realize they are characters in a Pile song. Steve wants to form a band and play with Pile but can't quite manage it because Mouth wants to give up on everything, leave, die, unexist. It's also about F.M. Dostoevsky and, as always, maybe above all, Krill. As Sir DFW put it, 'the horrific struggle to establish a human band results in a band whose humanity is inseparable from that horrific struggle.' Catch you later.

written and performed by Krill
recorded on August 3rd, 2013 by Julian Fader and Carlos Hernandez at The Silent Barn in Brooklyn, NY
mastered by Richard Marr at Galaxy Park Studios in Watertown, MA

Blur as we know it was born in 1989 when the band signed to Food/EMI. Debut album Leisure (1991) announced the arrival of a band with pop suss warped by an art-punk eccentricity. Yet Blur had more in them: namely, a revolution in the sound of English popular music. Second album Modern Life Is Rubbish reintroduced the idea that English rock music could be cool, and by the time their third album Parklife emerged in 1994, the rest of the UK had caught up. 

The Great Escape (1995) refined the sound palette of Britpop, but Blur were already moving on. 1997's Blur was an about-face - scuffed and noisy and un-English. Follow-up 13 was an even a more radical adventure in sound as William Orbit refereed a truce between organic punkpop and new-fangled technology.

Seventh album Think Tank (2003) was Blur’s first as a three piece after the temporary departure of founding guitarist Graham Coxon, featuring an eclectic variety of rhythms and textures and glorious melodies. 

In 2009 Blur reconvened as a four-piece to play a series of UK shows including two sold out dates at Hyde Park and a historic Sunday night appearance at Glastonbury. A film about Blur, No Distance Left To Run, was released in 2010.
