Matador Records News

Brightblack. Matador Records is pleased to herald the signing of one of America's most unique new bands, Northern California (via Alabama)'s Brightblack, the duo of Nabob (aka Nathan Shineywater) and Rachel Hughes (Rabob).

First emerging in 2002 with a Palace Records split 7" with Bonnie Prince Billy under the name Rainywood, Brightblack's 2004 LP 'Ala.Cali.Tucky' was recorded with Paul Oldham in Kentucky.

the following biographical spiel is culled from their website
(http://www.thebrightblackmorninglight.com/):

"Nathan D. "Nabob" Shineywater was raised rurally in Alabama by two
older men who became known in the community for enhancement of the
spiritual side of life. The eldest chose to be a rural preacher, who sang
gospels. The other man chose to distribute a refined white powdered South
American plant to anyone interested, in hopes to enhance the "party
spirit" side of life.

"Between these two men, Nabob spent his weekdays singing along to
Steely Dan. The weekends however were spent with the aging community of
peanut farmers in church, singing highly spiritual gospel. "Their voices
were very diverse. All of them old, except mine. Some were missing
teeth, adding percussion to the 'SSS' in S words. All the men and women
sang with both sadness and joy, depending on their day, and they sang as
prayer. Singing in that way is the only way to sing! It wasn't Sacred
Harp singing, it was straight ahead gospel that lent itself to the most
common of people."

"His best friend and music partner Rachael "Raybob" Hughes was also
raised rurally, in Montevallo, Alabama. The downtown area has a wonderful
wooded park of cedar trees, some of them carved as huge faces. Within
the town's park Rachael's father built an ornate waterfall. The piano in
their home was frequented by Southern Gospel as well. This is the crux
of her playing style, which is solely released on vintage Rhodes
pianos.

"Rural Northern California is where the two pitch tents in the warm
months, and live communally in a small old cabin in the colder months.

"Brightblack Morninglight in recent live settings have included newest
member Elias Reitz' complementory woven thunder of bells, tabla and
other chiff-chaff-clap-boom percussions. Other members include Noah Wilson
who has long been patterning his own drumkit beats with the shadows of
invisible dew drops he found while photographing fields in Humboldt
County, California.

"After 18 months of writing songs and playing & touring with bands
like Bonnie Prince Billy, White Magic, Women & Children, Papa M, Joanna
Newsome, Vetiver, Entrance, Gojogo, Daniel Higgs' Magic Alphabet,
Lungfish, and recently making their UK debut at the Slint-curated All
Tomorrow's Parties, Brightblack will commence recording their Matador debut
later this Spring."

cover story on Brightblack from the SF Weekly:

Finally, we'd like to offer a shout-out (ie. \"#### you") to the cowards
and thought-cops at the Ad Dept at Paste Magazine who have deemed our
proposed advertisement for 'Face The Truth' to be beyond the bounds of
"good taste." God forbid that anything might challenge the
sensibilities of Paste's Yep Roc-loving, Starbucks-guzzling, Wes
Anderson-worshipping readership. Seriously, if there's anything we or SM have done that
is a poor fit with Paste's Ad Dept's narrow worldview, that is the
highest compliment we've been paid since the last time Spin refused to run
one of our ads.

20 broadcast.

"C'mere," the 3rd UK single from 'Antics', entered the British charts
at No. 19 last week. 'Antics' has since been certified Gold in the UK
(100,000 sold) and is both Interpol's and Matador's first Gold record
in that territory.

Interpol wil be making a one-off appearance on May 8 in Sunderland as
part a live broadcast for the BBC's Radio One, then they'll return to
the UK in June for stadium dates supporting U2 and Coldplay (check the
tour dates section).

Laura Cantrell

The first MP3 from the new Laura Cantrell album 'Humming By The
Flowered Vine', "14th Street" is now available for your consideration. We'd
rather have your money, but in this case, we'll settle for your
consideration:

http://www.matadorrecords.com/laura_cantrell/index.html

East 14th St.) on June 21 at 7pm. Said event will be followed by shows in

WXPN on May 25. Later this summer, you'll see Laura as one of the many
guest commentators on CMT's "100 Greatest Duets".

Dead Meadow

could there possibly be a hotter concert attraction in North America
this June than Sleater-Kinney and Dead Meadow? The Def Leppard/Bryan
Adams tour of minor league baseball stadiums comes to mind, but the other
bill is probably a better value for money (offensive joke about
drummers missing limbs edited by cowardly thought-cops).

The New Pornographers - new album, tour dates, possible Michael Pare
reference

'Twin Cinema,' the New Pornographers' third album, finds all seven-plus
members pushing themselves in dizzying ways. The album features leader
A.C. Newman's most heartfelt songs yet, such as "The Bleeding Heart
Show" and the Neko showCase "These Are The Fables". "The Jessica Numbers"
and "Three or Four" approach "Jesus Christ Superstar" levels of theater
and nerve, "Use It" and the title track are amongst the band's best.
Dan Bejar (Destroyer) three remarkable contributions include "Jackie,
Dressed In Cobras," a wild-eyed glam sequel to Mass Romantic's
"Jackie". Guests include singer Nora O'Connor and Carl's long-lost teenage
niece (really) Kathryn Calder on vocals and piano (soon to be a touring
member of the group).

While 'Twin Cinema' is no less catchy (and the arrangements no less
intricate) than your fave moments from Mass Romantic and Electric
Version, there's a sense of economy and cutting wit which stand in slight
contrast to the party-out-of-bounds vibe of those records. The New
Pornographers have blown us away, again. Dig it deep. 'Twin Cinema' will be
in stores August 23.

tracklisting:

the following East Coast dates have been confirmed with more to follow:

24-Lancaster, PA at Chameleon Club
25-Brooklyn, NY at Celebrate Brooklyn
26-Northampton, MA at Pearl Street Nightclub

In addition, the NP's Todd Fancey has a four song solo EP, 'Fancey' out
on March Records next month.

The Double

NYC's The Double have completed recording on their Matador debut,
'Loose In the Air,' a worthy successor to 2004's 'Palm Fronds' (Catsup
Plate).

The massed Ace Tone/Vox/Casio keys of Jacob Morris and floating vocals
of David Greenhill have led some staff members to liken The Double to
music as diverse as '60s British folk mixed with theatrical synth bands.
But the spooky/paranoid vibes and insistent, inventive rhythms of
percussionist (he's more than a drummer) of Jeff McLeod consistently build
up a wall of sound more nervous and more intense than that comparison
might suggest. A consistent war between compressed noise/percussion and
washy, abstracted vocals lives up to the band's name... except that
irresistible pop melodies are laid on top. An indescribable and lovely
mess.

(the management would like to add that this album is equal parts
spooky, jittery and clang-tastic. The most wildly original NY album since
'Talking Heads 1977'? 'Marquee Moon'? Von LMO's 'Future Language'? OK,
I'll stop now.)

track listing:

Up All Night
Idiocy
Icy
On Our Way
Ripe Fruit
Hot Air
What Sound It Makes the Thunder
In The Fog
Dance
Busty Beasty

Yo La Tengo

Though we are quite concerned about the effects the video game boom are
having on the music industry (wouldn't you rather buy a new album by
Juice Newton?) not to mention the nasty correlation between first-person
shooter/corridor games and blowing up High Schools, we have (with some
second thoughts) launched a primitive Yo La Tengo video game.

http://www.matadorrecords.com/yo_la_tengo/game/index.html

As more and more of you continue to be enthralled by the 'Prisoners Of
Love' double & triple CD compilations (the collection about which
Coolfer raved "....couldn't make it all the way through."), Yo La Tengo
prepare to take their show on the road (please note the new batch of
European dates):

May 15: River Fusion/Sand Island, Bethlehem PA
May 18: Rose Theater, Lincoln Center, New York:The Sounds of Science
(live accompaniment with the films of Jean Painlevé)
May 27: Shibuya Club Quattro, Tokyo Japan
May 28: Laforet Museum, Tokyo Japan:The Sounds of Science (live
accompaniment with the films of Jean Painlevé)
May 29: Club Quattro, Osaka Japan
July 4: The Lawn, Battery Park, NYC (with Stephen Malkmus and Laura
Cantrell)
July 9: Mass MOCA, North Adams MA:The Sounds of Science (live
accompaniment with the films of Jean Painlevé)
Aug 5: Benicassim Festival, Spain
Aug 7: Umbria Urbino Festival, Italy
Aug 9: Berlin Columbia Club
Aug 10: Hamburg Fabrik
Aug 11: St Malo La Route Du Rock, France
Aug 14: Leicester Summer Sundae
Aug 15: Edinburgh Liquid Rooms
Aug 16: London Koko
Aug 17: Holland Paradiso
Aug 19: Cannes Festival Pantiero

Spoon

After a whirlwind 3 weeks supporting Interpol across Europe, Spoon are
back in the USA, finishing work on the video for "I Turn My Camera On",
and preparing for their appearance at this weekend's Coachella
festival. A full scale North American tour (with the Clientele supporting)
runs through late June, and we're hopeful that Spoon will be returning to
Europe at the end of the Summer. In the meantime, 'Gimme Fiction' is
out May 9 in the UK, Europe and Australia (a bit later in Japan), and
May 10 in North America through our friends at Merge. It is no
understatement when we proclaim said album to be one of the more challenging,
packed-with-ideas, life affirming rock'n'roll recordings you can allow
into your skull. Every couple of years this fantastic band emerges with
yet another masterpiece that tops their previous efforts, and this time
is no exception.

Cat Power

following a bunch of recently completed Eastern US shows with Sonic
Youth and her own Scandinavian jaunt, not to mention a show at Queen
Elizabeth Hall in London and a few in Scotland and Ireland, our friends in
Australia can catch Chan Marshall occasionally supporting Nick Cave &
The Bad Seeds on the following dates:

May 10 - Brisbane - Brisbane Convention Center - with Nick Cave and The
Bad Seeds
May 12 - Bulli - Heritage Hotel
May 14 - Sydney - Newtown
May 15 - Sydney - Luna Park Big Top - with Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
May 16 - Sydney - Luna Park Big Top - with Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
May 17 - Melbourne - Northcote Social Club
May 19 - Hepburn Springs - Palais
May 20 - Melbourne - Festival Hall - with Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds

Early Man

Perhaps you've had your head torn off watching Early Man on tour with
Mastodon and the Burning Brides. Or maybe you've come across their
recent Monitor EP, \"#### You If You're Talking To Me". In any event, both
of the above are a mere hint of what you can expect from Early Man's
forthcoming Matador full-length, due this Autumn.

M. Ward

Your correspondent had the privilege of catching M. Ward accompanied by
the deft hands of Norfolk & Western recently, and I am not ashamed to
say that the performance brought tears to my eyes. Or perhaps that was
the tear gas. Y'know, I might have gotten the gig mixed up with a
protest against the local police's overuse of stun guns & choke holds.
But I am pretty sure one of these events was spectacular while the other
was merely "really good". You can catch M. Ward at the following
bigass outdoor events.

Jun 11, 2005 - Manchester, TN - Bonnaroo Festival
Jul 21, 2005 - New York, NY - Castle Clinton (w/ band)
Aug 7, 2005 - Newport, RI (Newport Folk Festival) w/ Emmylou Harris

MATMOS SEZ:

We just played a benefit for our friend Dax Pierson in San Francisco,
alongwith Dj Doseone, Jel & Alias, and Sagan. We're getting ready to
truck on down to Coachella to do our thing in the desert heat as a
threepiece with Jay Lesser; the lineup was to have included Mark Lightcap but
Drew has the flu so we can't go down to rehearse with Mark, alas.
Happily, before getting the flu Drew finished the Hamlet chapter of his
dissertation. Martin remains steadfastly the manager of the New Genres
Department at the San Francisco Art Institute. Back at home, we are hard at
work on the new Matmos album. Our experiments recording herds of snails
interrupting the path of white flashlights, blue LEDs and red laser
beams en route to a light-controlled theremin was a big success. The
snails seemed to be playing the theremin with their eyestalks. It was magic.
We are working on some remixes too, for Nortec folks and for Jim
Foetus, and Drew is toiling on Soft Pink Truth remixes for Eats Tapes, Safety
Scissors, and Grizzly Bear.

Pretty Girls Make Graves -

Just back from some UK dates supporting Bloc Party, Derek writes:

"We are going in to record on July 1st, the record is not going to be
called "The Shivering Duck" after all... We also just set up a 2 week
midwest tour for Aug. Other than that, there will be a lot of swimming
and Barbeque this summer."

Matador Alumni Corner

One of the creative forces behind NYC's Arsonists, Q-Unique, has a new
solo album, 'Vengence Is Mine', available now on Uncle Howie Records.
Q will be the special guest on WFMU's "Coffee Break For Heroes &
Villians" on Wednesday May 4 from 2am-6am. (http://www.wfmu.org)

Listening Piles and Miscellany:

Roger Miller, Mission Of Burma

On the road in the midwest w/Alloy Orchestra:

Bell's Amber is quite a good beer.
WiFi is charming.
The white flowers which fall in Illinois are charming as all get out.
Plotting new material for that rcck group I'm in. Is there a reason to
do so?
The Summer for Condensation.

I still find that Missy Eilliot kicks ass charmingly.
Love the Criterion DVD Collection of Stan Brakhage films - the shortest
one, at 9 seconds long, gives more information than 10 Hollywood
grotesqueries.
Food in the midwest is not as good as it should be. (for a moment i
thought i was in london....)

While selling '60's Detroit area posters on-line, someone wrote me
explaining the '60's band, The Pigfuckers. He said his cousin was in the
group, and they were a free-improv. outift "that played the Cass
Corridor". They were on a poster I sold featuring the MC5, The Psychedelic
Stooges and the Up. When they played in Ann Arbor, they were called the
"PFs" to avoid police harrassment.

The past is made of glass. Look at it too hard and it breaks.
