It was recorded at the Bunker in Brooklyn and then Mixed at John Vanderslice's studio Tiny Telephone Booth. It is a full on departure of everything you previously had heard from the band. it takes the sound that they started to do last years Holy Spirits ep and takes it a step even further. Gone are the neo-folk sounds before and replaced with walls of guitar fuzz. Jam on! Pre-order the 123 for Healin The Pain [...]
State Bird – Healin the Pain. Download "Talking Real Shit" (mp3). This Northeastern Ohio band started out playing neo-folk in the vein of Neutral Milk Hotel. Now the four-piece band churns out unadulterated rock and roll. They haven't simply picked up electric guitars. They've refined their recording process and made an album that recoils and jolts. Healin the Pain was recorded with few overdubs and mixed at Tiny Telephone. The same dedication to crafting engaging songs still exists, but the sound is much larger with a more aggressive, gnarling sound. Click [...]

After a month which included a weekend boozer in Boston and a working weekend at the Pitchfork Music Festival, I've found myself to be perpetually behind - Behind on my email, behind on new jams, and behind on my bills. I'm sure the credit card company will understand when I tell them the money marked for July's bill "accidentally" went to a bar in Boston. It was an honest mistake, and, um, one that I made with the electric company's money, too. Today, we're going to make everything right. Not with the bank [...]

Silje Nes Silje Nes is a woman of many many talents and she knows how to use them in orchestra to create wonderful music. On her new release Optiks the mulitinstrumentalist (we're talking guitars, drums, viola, bass, xylophone, electronics, keyboards, concertina, flute, trumpet, percussion ...) crafts hooks and builds carefully nuanced ebbs and flows of rhythm into wondrous music over which she melts her delicate voice.

This 5-track, 20+ minute EP was recorded at Tiny Telephone in San Francisco under the guidance of Ian Pellicci (Deerhoof, Rogue Wave). Compared with Mostly Ghostly (State Bird's 2008 release), the band now has a big sound where Coby and Jared wield fuzz and feedback masterfully.

State Bird presents their third release, Holy Spirits, and the spirits they do flow. Last we left off, State Bird had seen the light- belting ukuleles and tribal choirs chanting redemption, Hollerin' Mountains, and a Ghost King by the shore. And while State Bird hasn't completely emerged from the hills and hollows of Ohio, the woods are burning to the ground on this one. Born in the ashes of a
