"Dragonfly" is really cute, "Affa" is gnarly, but I'm not so sure about the rest of the tracks.

If it's the same version on Big Laughing Jym, which I never listen to, it hasn't made an impression on me.

Dusting off BLJ, hey, this isn't as forgettable as I remembered it being! "Dispersion" is rad, classic Bardo noise sludge.

'apple eye' is pretty sick—that constant stream of fuzzed out guitar

That description could apply to any song in their catalogue, but I still want to hear it.

stream kind of like if a can of silly string could be used to weaponize guitar fuzz. like a hose, but smaller.

shit leee, this is really good, since it's a comp they don't really try for any 'album' diversity, it's just straight up hypnotic jams from one to the other

They have another 12" coming out on RSD. Apparently is part 2 of a trilogy that started last year. This years covers are Ride Into The Sun and Here Comes the Warm Jets. Here comes the Warm Jets can be listened to on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/firerecords/bardo-pond-here-come-the-warm

sorry i got a little excited therelistening to this right now, it's pretty goodbut it's kinda hard to fuck up "here come the warm jets"
― Mayor Manuel (La Lechera), Friday, 4 April 2014 19:19 (ten years ago) link
also it's 16+ min longisobel sounds like kim deal
― Mayor Manuel (La Lechera), Friday, 4 April 2014 19:20 (ten years ago) link
They should do "Rocket Man" and "Fortunate Son" next.
― Ned Zeppelin (Leee), Friday, 4 April 2014 19:24 (ten years ago) link
the part at the end where they slow down is pretty great, like they're all totes exhausted i guess this cover is alright
― Mayor Manuel (La Lechera), Friday, 4 April 2014 19:31 (ten years ago) link
Need to listen to these new covers! Last year's covers single was wonderful.

wonder if their cover of "here come(s) the warm jets" will rule as much as circle's did, on manner
― reggie (qualmsley), Sunday, 6 April 2014 15:17 (ten years ago) link
It rules in a different way, more ramshackle.

show last night in philly was excellent, if too brief (opening for silver mt. zion). isobel has to be the best frontperson in rock

Ugh, they need to come out West again.

these fun blown out cover 12" is are great
― illegalblues, Monday, 7 July 2014 20:24 (nine years ago) link
somehow the 'warm jets' cover makes them sound like a 90s alt group (i mean they are but you know what i mean)
― j., Tuesday, 7 October 2014 14:34 (nine years ago) link
Yes! In a totally good way.

What the, they released a compilation of early EP and non-album tracks last year!
― Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Monday, 23 February 2015 22:59 (nine years ago) link
Though looking at the track list, it seems I've heard most of these tunes and only two of them are, IIRC, worthwhile: http://threelobed.bandcamp.com/album/refulgo
― Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Monday, 23 February 2015 23:02 (nine years ago) link
i dunno, i love Refulgo. best thing might be the epic Sangh Seriatim though

I need that little animated gif of the smiley face that goes like :-O and then the mouth gets bigger and bigger until the face is blacked out and the mouth expands to cover the entire universe and suck in all light and matter to express how I feel about that.

Hope they put these out on CD or something because I never found the first two and doubt I'll find the third.
You can probably email them directly!

I mean to get them to collect the covers on CD. (Though I did get a complimentary copy of Cypher Docs 1 when I bought one of their volume CD-Rs, so they're pretty menschy about things.)
