Black Hearted Brother: Stars Are Our Home auf 2 LPs

Die neue Band von Neil Halstead (Gitarrist & Sänger von Slowdive & Mojave D3), Mark Van Hoen (Seefeel & Locust) und Nick Holton (Holtons Opulent Oog). Mal psychedelischer Space-Rock, mal dröhender Shoegaze, mal Folk, mal Garagenrock - genau wie die drei Urbands.

Product Information

The debut album by the new band formed by Neil Halstead (Slowdive, Mojave 3), Mark Van Hoen (Seefeel, Locust) and Nick Holton (Coley Park, Holton’s Opulent Oog). ‘Stars Are Our Home’ has been recorded, re-recorded, remixed and generally tinkered with in sheds all the way from Newquay to New York over the past few years. Like many great albums (All Night Radio’s criminally underappreciated ‘Spirit Stereo Frequency’ springs to mind) it plays a bit like a mixtape because, stylistically, it reflects all three of its creators. Thus, it ranges from the lengthy space-rock jam of the title track to the downbeat disco of ‘My Baby Just Sailed Away’, on the way taking in white noise, acoustic folk and burbling electronics. At times it’s reminiscent of Wilco’s ‘Yankee Hotel Foxtrot’, at others Blur’s ‘13’ and sometimes even a grown up MGMT.
