Bambara - Shadow On Everything [LP] Vinyl Record

Vinyl LP pressing. Shadow On Everything, the third LP by Bambara and their first for Wharf Cat Records, represents a huge leap forward for the NYC-via-Georgia trio. Frontman Reid Bateh, drummer Blaze Bateh, and bassist William Brookshire have always been adept students of the histories of noise rock and post-punk, mining the work of bands like Swans and The Birthday Party. Now, they've transcended their early influences to produce a Western Gothic concept album that sounds as big as the desert sky that looms over it's characters' lives. While Reid's lyrics have always been a critical part of Bambara's songs, his voice is pushed to the front of the mix on Shadow On Everything.
