Bottomless Pit

"Horse Trading"'s melody is pretty reminiscent of Dido's "Thank You" (the one that got sampled for that Eminem song) which throws me some in a good way

Ha I've been thinking the same thing, glad I'm not totally insane.

I saw them again on Saturday and it was better than the in-store I went to a couple of weeks ago. Part of it was that they were playing old stuff too instead of just the new album, but the energy was better in general as well.

Oh damn that's what that is!

Shade Perennial is slowly getting better and better each time I listen to it. I had been missing the space of the older songs, the long instrumental parts, but today the new one is hitting the spot.

On a side note, has anyone heard the new Joel RL Phelps yet? Not sure if it's out yet. I was never a huge fan of his solo stuff but maybe I'll give the new one a shot.

On indefinite hiatus per FB last night

Hi everyone—I would like you to know that Bottomless Pit is on indefinite hiatus. I wasn’t going to make a big thing of announcing it, but I do get inquiries as to our availability, and I finally decided it was best to make it official. We are all still good friends and pleased with what we have done. I’m making music now under the name Mint Mile, with Andy’s involvement. Likely Andy will get his own thing together at some point. I'll post any updates on that front here. Can’t tell you how much we appreciate your interest. See you around. Very best, Tim

Wish they would have made it to New York for a show first! Oh well.

Well that sucks. Glad I got to see them a few times.

Lucky

aw :(
