bird names – metabolism: a salute to the energy of the sun
lp • limited to 1000 copies
high quality virgin colored vinyl • pro printed jackets
the latest release by the fringe pop outfit bird names is another bright star in their galaxy of offerings. the album, metabolism: a salute to the energy of the sun, was created meticulously over the course of many moons and spiritual awakenings in sunny chicago, il. the band is a duo, of sorts, comprised of phelan lavelle & david lineal, though a cast of good souls have helped them along their travels. recently making athens, ga their home, they explore a pop sound that touches as much on the naïve as it does the borders of avant-experimentation. their new album, mastered by griffin rodriguez (icy demons, beirut, band of horses), is a lo-fi, boundary-pushing, pop experiment in the vein of the beach boys’ smile. it is a fully-realized reflection on the sun and the fount of organic energy, or human energies, as the speech of the sun. |
