Whalehammer Duo LP - 'Static Reverence'


So a new Whalehammer album has been unleashed upon the masses, 'Static Reverence' is the title. This time though it is a bit different as this is a 'Whalehammer Duo' album, ala Crosby and Stills recording an album devoid of the magic of Young and Nash. This recording still has plenty of magic in it's digital soul though. Richard and David recorded it on the evening of 28th September 2007 live to SM57. It will be up on www.doddrell.com/mp3 soonish to download. In the meantime two of the songs, 'Narcoplex' and 'Electronic Prism Face' are up on www.myspace.com/whalehammer to listen to or download. The sound on this album is a bit more blissed-out and electronic than previous Whalehammer stuff, it's pretty cool IMO.
