There is, of course, the meaning of ôperformanceö that : :' applies to anyone for whom the live arena is the proving ': ,: ground. ThereÆs also something more personal but universally :, : acknowledged û the gap that exists between what we project and : :' who we really are. ôThere is something absurd and isolating in ': ,: continuing this pursuit for personal connection on such a wide :, : scale. When writing an album I essentially leave my actual life, : :' retreat deeper into myself and as it nears completion, I ': ,: evaluate my work based on my own extremely skewed notion of what :, : is widely relatable and still legitimately cool,ö says Petralli. : :' ôMy idea of cool is most significantly shaped by SteveÆs body ': ,: language when we are talking through ideas in session.ö It has :, : been said that ôA clown enriched knows neither relation nor : :' friend.ö ': ,: :, : Performance was mainly recorded over eight weeks at the bandÆs : :' new downtown Austin studio, Radio Milk. Once an old general ': ,: store constructed in 1902, it is now respectfully restored and :, : sandwiched in between bars and modern condominiums. Two new : :' players were key in what Petralli describes as ôa ': ,: super-collaborative record:ö keyboardist Michael Hunter, a :, : ôyoung, humble genius with endless potentialö and Conrad : :' Choucroun, a ôridiculously solidö drummer with a long stint ': ,: with NRBQ on his resume. ôIf you take nothing else from this at :, : least take some time to listen to NRBQ, rock & roll scholars who : :' shared members with the Sun Ra Arkestraö advises Petralli. It ': ,: makes sense that White Denim would develop a kinship with a :, : player from their circle. In many ways, they are a continuation : :' of that sort of group. One that will never stop pushing and ': ,: taking every opportunity to shine a light on and exemplify what :, : is truly good about Rock & Roll music. : :' ': ,: Categorically speaking, White Denim is still impossible to :, : narrowly pin down. ThereÆs the glam-rock strut of ôMagazinö and : :' ôIt Might Get Dark,ö the dueling guitars on the low-slung blues ': ,: prog of ôMoves Onö, and the sideways jazz of ôSky Beaming.ö :, : There are plenty of pleasingly unexpected musical moments on the : :' title track and the easy-rolling closer ôGood News,ö along with ': ,: some seriously distorted guitar. In the title track, Petralli :, : sings, ôFlashing light in a tunnel, YouÆre indicating a change.ö : :' In many ways, White Denim is the flashing light in a dark and ': ,: crowded tunnel of showbiz glop. Quietly and fiercely finding :, : themselves -- and us -- through their work. : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 1 8 \/
