BARDO POLLND

!!

Need to listen to these new covers! Last year's covers single was wonderful.

I remember Isobel saying on FB that the guys wanted to cover On the Beach

This years covers are Ride Into The Sun and Here Comes the Warm Jets.

OH YES [/dies happy]

Listen to it first!

They have another 12" coming out on RSD. Apparently is part 2 of a trilogy that started last year. This years covers are Ride Into The Sun and Here Comes the Warm Jets. Here comes the Warm Jets can be listened to on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/firerecords/bardo-pond-here-come-the-warm

oh hell yes
this has made me so happy

wonder if their cover of "here come(s) the warm jets" will rule as much as circle's did, on manner

It rules in a different way, more ramshackle.

show last night in philly was excellent, if too brief (opening for silver mt. zion). isobel has to be the best frontperson in rock

Ugh, they need to come out West again.

I may be more happy to see them at Austin Psych Fest than Loop.

Spoiler alert: 16 minutes long

Oh this is all upthread. Sorry.

these fun blown out cover 12" is are great

somehow the 'warm jets' cover makes them sound like a 90s alt group (i mean they are but you know what i mean)

Yes! In a totally good way.

What the, they released a compilation of early EP and non-album tracks last year!

Though looking at the track list, it seems I've heard most of these tunes and only two of them are, IIRC, worthwhile: http://threelobed.bandcamp.com/album/refulgo

i dunno, i love Refulgo. best thing might be the epic Sangh Seriatim though

lol wtf we already went over this. xp

~Something~ about this band seems to promote forgetfulness.

don't know what you're talking about.
this hasn't been mentioned though, right? http://thekey.xpn.org/2015/02/04/kss-bardo-pond-underground-arts/

The final part of the covers trilogy is In Every Dream Home a Heart Ache and Music Is the Healing Force of the Universe. In Every Dream... can be listened to here: https://soundcloud.com/firerecords/bardo-pond-in-every-dream/s-FiYIe

I need that little animated gif of the smiley face that goes like :-O and then the mouth gets bigger and bigger until the face is blacked out and the mouth expands to cover the entire universe and suck in all light and matter to express how I feel about that.

Hope they put these out on CD or something because I never found the first two and doubt I'll find the third.

You can probably email them directly!

I mean to get them to collect the covers on CD. (Though I did get a complimentary copy of Cypher Docs 1 when I bought one of their volume CD-Rs, so they're pretty menschy about things.)

3xCD collection of all three RSD EPs coming out at the end of the month! Whooo.

excellent news

Awesome. Now to promptly forget about this news and be surprised by it in September.

Fire site sez that it's out already (6/22), and mine's already on the way.

got mine on order at the brick and mortar, they said 7/21

at first i was not sure about "maggot brain" - i kept wanting the solo to happen, and it didn't, which was frustrating! but it won me over through repetition.

the roxy cover is totally majestic, though

I ordered this at work and it's backordered from the distributor already - I feel like Fire are maybe not the best at shipping on time. Or our distro sucks. Anyway I'm impatient and want it NOW.

I just got a copy of Refulgo ('used'/sealed for $14!), and wow...it totally rules. I was expecting maybe some filler, but it's pretty much all killer. Side 4 is a highlight, but everything on it is scratching my Bardo itch.

Upcoming RSD thing again:

Bardo Pond - Acid Guru Pond     2LP Split Colour Vinyl

And as you might figure from the name, it's a collab with AMT, which, unless I'm mistaken, is the first time they've collabed?

Bardo Pond did collaborate with LSD March for archive records, and they have released at least one record with Tom Carter for Three Lobed.

I meant specifically an AMT/Bardo collab -- weird that they've been in the same circle for years and this might be their first.

I love that LSD Pond record.

Fond memories of Bardo Pond + Kawabata team-up set at Terrastock Louisville

this acid guru pond rules

Why did I wait so long to listen to Acid Guru Pond? This is awesome.

it's so great!

i think my actual favorite bardo pond-related thing is THIRD TROLL; Pharmacognosy is one of the shroomiest things ever recorded

I looooove Third Troll. Did they ever do that on vinyl?

Acid Guru Pond is on Spotify!
