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

lol wtf we already went over this. xp

The final part of the covers trilogy is In Every Dream Home a Heart Ache and Music Is the Healing Force of the Universe. In Every Dream... can be listened to here: https://soundcloud.com/firerecords/bardo-pond-in-every-dream/s-FiYIe

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!
― Romo... ROMO! Bring Back Sergio Romo! (Leee), Thursday, 12 March 2015 18:24 (nine years ago) link
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.)

Fire site sez that it's out already (6/22), and mine's already on the way.

got mine on order at the brick and mortar, they said 7/21

at first i was not sure about "maggot brain" - i kept wanting the solo to happen, and it didn't, which was frustrating! but it won me over through repetition.
the roxy cover is totally majestic, though
― the late great, Wednesday, 29 July 2015 04:06 (eight years ago) link
I ordered this at work and it's backordered from the distributor already - I feel like Fire are maybe not the best at shipping on time. Or our distro sucks. Anyway I'm impatient and want it NOW.
― that's why god destroyed the radio (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Wednesday, 29 July 2015 05:02 (eight years ago) link
I just got a copy of Refulgo ('used'/sealed for $14!), and wow...it totally rules. I was expecting maybe some filler, but it's pretty much all killer. Side 4 is a highlight, but everything on it is scratching my Bardo itch.

Upcoming RSD thing again:
Bardo Pond - Acid Guru Pond 2LP Split Colour Vinyl
― Sorry To Be The Bearer Of Bad Poos (Leee), Tuesday, 22 March 2016 17:56 (eight years ago) link
And as you might figure from the name, it's a collab with AMT, which, unless I'm mistaken, is the first time they've collabed?
― Sorry To Be The Bearer Of Bad Poos (Leee), Tuesday, 22 March 2016 17:58 (eight years ago) link
Bardo Pond did collaborate with LSD March for archive records, and they have released at least one record with Tom Carter for Three Lobed.

I meant specifically an AMT/Bardo collab -- weird that they've been in the same circle for years and this might be their first.

i think my actual favorite bardo pond-related thing is THIRD TROLL; Pharmacognosy is one of the shroomiest things ever recorded

I looooove Third Troll. Did they ever do that on vinyl?

bardo pond are playing at a very small venue this weekend two nights in a row -- i am going to miss the first night because richard pinhas is also playing a very small venue but should i make an effort to catch bardo pond?
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Tuesday, 4 October 2016 19:34 (seven years ago) link
I've never seen them live. But based on their records - yes!
― Duke, Tuesday, 4 October 2016 19:40 (seven years ago) link
well yeah i mean i obviously like their records i just wondered what their live show is like
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Tuesday, 4 October 2016 19:43 (seven years ago) link
liiiiike are they gonna play pharaoh sanders covers or are they going to play one note for 45 min or all of the above or ?
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Tuesday, 4 October 2016 19:48 (seven years ago) link
AFAIK they play stuff from their albums, the weirder skronky stuff is saved for like Third Troll or other side project names.
