Joseph Childress/ White White Quilt – Split (Water Tower) 7" Recorded inside a three story abandoned water tower, these two tracks are stunning examples natural reverb and location specific field recordings. On one side White White Quilt lay down their swan | ||
song, steeped in the same high plains lonesomeness that Brightblack Morning Light have long been able to tap into. The cavernous surroundings match the Quilt's candlelit reverberations perfectly and this is quite possibly the best way they could have taken a bow. On the flip Joseph Childress proves that he wont' be taken lightly, recording a stirring version of his song "Leaving the Barren Ground". The track is giving amazing weight both through Childress' haunting delivery and from the epic percussion created by members of White White Quilt throwing their bodies against the walls of the water tower during the recording. Definitely one of the best singles to be released this year. Gorgeous doesn't begin to explain these recordings. Ltd to 500 copies.

I really like the Childress song..haven't heard the White White Quilt side thought. Will definitely check this..I think a gem of a 7".
Finally some Childress appears! If you could post anything from the Rebirths I would appreciate it. I have been chasing it for two year. No kidding! Looking forward to his new album. YOU rock, thanks for tugging on the ears:)
