Crippled Black Phoenix


Recommended Posts

From Pitchfork:

 

Geoff Barrow might've hit a block during the recording process for Portishead's upcoming (not sure exactly when) album, but he's got no reservations about Crippled Black Phoenix, a new project from Electric Wizard's Justin Greaves, Mogwai's Dominic Aitchison, Pantheist's Andy Semmens and Kostas Panagiotou, Gonga's Joe Volk, and 3D House of Beef's Nial McGaughey.

 

Yes, those are all real bands. Or so we think.

 

 

The "supergroup" has just recorded its debut album, A Love of Shared Disasters, at State of Art Studios in Bristol. Barrow, who is a part owner of the studio, produced the disc and will release it on his own Invada Records. In a press release, he said of the project, "I've been waiting for someone to make a record like this for a long time."

 

The release will hit stores sometime this year, and several tracks are already available for streaming on the band's MySpace page. A Crippled Black Phoenix tour is also in the works for 2k6.

01 The Lament of the Nithered Mercinary

Very interesting stuff... reminds me a little of Godspeed! and A Silver Mt Zion from the first track at least...
