A favourite band of mine, that has been through various line up changes, the renaming of the band, and an overhaul of their sound has decided to call it a day and have on friendly terms, disbanded.
I do find it hard to write about music because it`s all about emotions and metaphors, and when you really like something it`s hard to express that in words. How I`d describe their sound, is as a collection of mini soundtracks, perfect when for when you`re on your own. There`s a feeling of intimacy that comes out in the writing of the music and that warmth is expressed fluently by the collective of musicians that have made up this band over time.
When I first started working at the studio, they were the first band that I really `got`. I`m a sucker for instrumentals, and they created some beautiful songs whilst I was working away on the other side of the wall. I got to photograph them twice, the first time with a cameraphone - really high contrast shots, which turned out pretty well - and the second time with an actual camera, this time with the current line up, which is what your seeing now. An absolute joy to work with - thanks for letting me into your sessions.
Watch out for a forthcoming remix of ` Choeung Ek Memorial (Killing Fields) ` .. currenly working on it .. right now.
Here is a full discography of the bands work over the two phases of its lifetime. You can download at any price, including `free` .. that`s up to you. listen and decide.
