BLONDE REDHEAD are back with a brand new album – already being hailed as their career landmark.
In 2007, Blonde Redhead return with a spellbinding album – ‘23’. The new album is as rich and densely layered as their debut for 4AD, ’Misery Is A Butterfly’.
Recorded and produced by Blonde Redhead in New York City late last-year, they band enlisted the help of CHRIS COADY (YEAH YEAH YEAHS, TV ON THE RADIO), ALAN MOULDER (MY BLOODY VALENTINE, KILLERS, NINE INCH NAILS) and RICH COSTEY (FRANZ FERDINAND, MUSE, BLOC PARTY) to share mixing duties.
Blonde Redhead comprise KAZU MAKINO and twin brothers SIMONE and AMADEO PACE. They're that rarest of things: a band whose voice has grown stronger, clearer and more distinctive with every record that they have made.
Their reward for this has been an audience whose numbers have quietly grown over the course of their career, almost entirely by word of mouth. The band's unique sound - combining spare otherworldliness and bittersweet tension - can be traced back to their earliest releases in the mid-'90s (issued by SONIC YOUTH drummer STEVE SHELLEY's SMELLS LIKE RECORDS label and by indie tastemaker TOUCH+GO).
Formed in the mid 90’s, the bands biggest album to date was their first 4AD release back in 2004 – ‘Misery Is A Butterfly’ featured some of the most tender music in the Blonde Redhead catalogue and becam e the most successful album of their career, greatly expanding their audiences in the rest of the world. èALBUM OF THE WEEK ACTION ABOUNDS - CURRENT AOW
