Bohren and Der Club of Gore

i wish there was an entire genre of Sunset Mission-inspired doom swank

i saw em live. so good.

i have not listened to 'geisterfaust' before and so far it is my favourite thing; it seems to isolate the one thing that they do in a way that is purer than the others i have heard

not unrelatedly, the necks are not on spotify

would love to see them live.

Haha yep Tim is pretty much the exact type of thing I like. I did hear them about two years ago but only properly got into them via spotify...

Not sure if you noticed but i recco'd them on your recent late night noir music thread. I had been expecting you to say "oh yeah I already love these guys..."

would love to see them live.

i tried to bring them to glasgow but it fell through. one day!

brilliant - i'm sure it will happen!

Apparently they don't like to tour
Which is a shame
Their Toronto show also fell through

saw em live. they played in the dark. ruled.

midnight radio also kind of great. wonder what kind of intra-band communication led to the various versions of their appproach seen on the difft. records

Definitely my favorite musical moment at Roadburn 2010. And that's a festival FULL of amazing acts.

Sooooo good. Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corp. is also pretty good in a similar vein.

After reading the heroin Jazz thread I've been listening to everything that's on Spotify. And looking at the pictures on discogs, their vinyl releases look great too, although they all seem to be very limited editions and probably unavailable anywhere.

so good live. they introduced themselves a few songs into the set, "this is ze bass player, this is ze drummer, i am ze saxophonist" and then shut up and played for another hour.

glad to hear it. probably seeing them live later this month

Dear friends of uneventfull music,

BOHREN & DER CLUB OF GORE is glad and proud to announce a new release (March 2011):

BEILEID - uneventfull music is coming home: three pieces, 37 minutes, including coverversion of WARLOCKS “Catch my heart”.

Keep it sick!

Can't wait for this! I hope it will continue in their jazzy side.

Also I just noticed that I missed a 2010 release called 'MITLEID LADY,' is it good?

Is that the Latitudes thing? It's great, but an insane rip off (10 minutes for like $15).

three pieces, 37 minutes, including coverversion of WARLOCKS “Catch my heart”.

!!!

I'm going to show my ignorance here, but what is WARLOCKS “Catch my heart”?

Listening now.

have any of you heard a band called Heroin And Your Veins? Sort of a lame name but really nice music, a little bit like Bohren, kinda more surfy but has that same dark loungey vibe. Very Twin Peaks. I came across them randomly on Spotify where you can hear their first album: http://open.spotify.com/user/iamronan/playlist/6lUvjeuYGn0KnEoR4galTA

bump...anyone?

just checked out one of their videos. nice!

I've not heard the new one yet, highly anticipating it.

weirdly all the songs sound a bit like "heroin" by superpitcher.

they also posted this band: http://open.spotify.com/track/3oSHpXFVbvC4yc59NZAWkO

"dale cooper quartet"....just in case the massive twin peaks love in this music wasn't there for all to see!

It won't stop raining. This is good music. Loving Dolores tonight.

streaming on pitchfork advance

Just discovered them via the Ulver thread. Wow! Thick, dark, mahogany jacket wearing . Some of this sounds really familiar to me in a way. Why on earth is it making me think of eighties UK TV, Only Fools and Horses or something? I'm listening to Sunset Mission. Is the other stuff different?

I think Sunset Mission is the best of theirs, sometimes I think it's the best record, ever. Dolores is great too, kind of similar late nite smokey vibe to sunset mission, also has great sax playing. I don't think any of the others have the jazzy sax, but they have their moments, more dark and brooding. I think Black Earth is the darkest one, I don't remember. I don't play them as much as Sunset Mission, and I still haven't heard their first record. I'm excited they have a new one and what a great cover!!!

i couldn't imagine this music working without the sax, but i'll give em a try.

I was wrong it's Geisterfaust, not Black Earth that I found the darkest. I can't even make it through the whole album. Really heavy somber music. I'm listening to Beileid right now and it's really nice and lazy.

geisterfaust is my favorite. i don't like the debut much, it has the best song titles though.

cheers Jacob.

impressed by people who can tell their albums apart (no diss to their albums)

i have just only discovered them with the new album which i enjoy - if that is the right word - very much. their extremely slow music in between jazz and ambient also reminds of someone else but i don't know whom. the slow motion draws me in like crazy, it is like a maelstroem turning around which swallows me. it is late night music for sure, i can imagine it matching perfectly with a joint. in a way this music seems to destroy or better to annihilate time. gorgeous stuff, i am very much looking forward in discovering the earlier albums.

i kind of hate the vocals on the new one

vocals? uh oh

vocals? i am sure i'd hate them too if i heard them, gr8080.

ok i guess it was just a mike patton guest appearance on the 2011 album i was thinking about:
