I Heart Lung- Between Them A Forest Grew, Trackless and Quiet (SAA1146)
The newest album from guitar/drums duo I Heart Lung is a collection of live recordings and trio improvisations with Create (!) saxophonist Peter Chan. The album finds the group performing songs from their debut recording Blood & Light, the split 12" with Castanets as well as previously unreleased compositions. Recorded from 2004 through 2007, Between Them A Forest Grew, Trackless and Quiet is the document of the duet in constant motion. I Heart Lung explores a wealth of improvisational material in addition to studio tracks, old and new, including a sketch from the band's forthcoming album Interoceans.
Featured Release
The fateful, final album from Austin, Texas four-piece makeShift:Shelter, a makeShift LP finds the group powerfully incorporating more synthetic/electronic sounds into their live band arrangements. The group stretches out with tasteful playing and, as always, purposeful compositions. Bill Brown's propulsions on drum kit and vibraphone take on new colour with drum machine textures and Reagan Van Matre's jazz-twang is given extra weight with Brian Tomlin's guitar and thick keyboards and tastefully nimble bass playing from Mark Foley.
