| | | autumn (usa) #ar 009 ep kurt weisman / chris weisman “over the shadow's door” seven inch single record - kurt weisman - over the shadow's door
- chris weisman - over the shadow's door
| october 2009 release ; split single from the two weisman brothers kurt (older, higher voice) & chris (younger, lower) housed in art by the weisman sister emma ...
whereas kurt sets the tone with a lovely, straight-ahead finger-picked guitar accompaniment to his overdubbed voices (damn, he get so high !!!) ; chris’ panegyric on home recording and christopher forgues is harder to read, cloaked in looped drum-stick hits and a “tricky” legato leitmotif straight outta the back-tablature pages of guitar world ...
full-color sleeve holds a bubblegum-pink vinyl easter egg ; nice one !!! |
| | ar009 : kurt weisman & chris weisman - over the shadow's door 7"
over the shadow's door is a unified artistic project by the ever creative weisman siblings. a title was chosen and then kurt, chris and emma set about making music / art to correspond with the title. this is the result...
kurt open things up on side a with lovely spiralling acoustic guitar patterns with kurt's trademark high angelic tenor falsetto vocals (along with the ghost of kurt weisman singing even higher vocal harmonies!)
"no i can not be a man anymore"
on side b, chris slashes and cuts through echoed word raps over spindly guitar licks and drum stick clicks (he'll explain it to you in the song). the chorus reaches a droney low voice counterpoint stasis. a nice little coda at the end with brazilian guitar tones and a chunky bassline.
"who says that i can't find the floor?"emma's artwork is a wonderful children's book style cross hatch illustration. boy crawling on floor trying to open the purple shadow door. boy on the first floor climbing a ladder to peer at the ceiling galaxies / stars. strange paintings on the wall above the orange couch. are there are more questions than answers?
