Vinyl LP pressing. Seventh album by Big Blood on which they are abetted by the Bleedin' Hearts - Tom Kovacevic and Micah Blue Smaldone (who were Caleb & Colleen's bandmates in Fire On Fire) and Kelly Nesbitt (a Portland-based musician/performance artist). Recorded at home in South Portland Maine at various times through various means, this session was originally released on CDR in 2008. For about half the album Big Blood retains it's duo/ghost quartet profile, with the core participants generating copious gusts of the avant/rural fog that was their early trademark. Tunes range from the Graceless Lady (with tense vocals recalling Nick Cave's Weeping Song) to the cracked Americana twangin' of Night Lighter. It also includes idiosyncratic tracks, such as Tease It Like a Cop, pared down to Colleen's treated vocal ands piano, and a rare (and beautiful) cover tune - Syd Barrett's Terrapin.
