weyes blood ~ the outside room lp (not not fun 2011)

"...Weyes Blood is the work of a solitary lady, best known as Natalie Mering from Jackie-O Motherfucker. It’s a collection of downbeat torch songs predominantly backed by organ or guitar and drums, but with some mysterious clanks and screeches going on in the background too. She has quite a low voice and a sort of stoic Nico-esque delivery which I like, which combined with the slow pace of the record often lends it a kind of spiritual feel. The casual way in which she knocks out these memorable tracks and the vocal harmonies kind of bring Woods to mind in places, but this is really something entirely of its own, fragile and compelling." norman records

eternal tapestry - the invisible landscape (not not fun, 2009)

"The Invisible Landscape is the fruit of this from-bliss-to-blistering evolution/revolution. It's packed deep with six kraut-punk psych-shredders, huffing fumes from the twin guitar hero dogfighting of Dewey Mahood and Nick Bindeman while drum demon Jed Bindeman does barrel rolls and nosedives into the eye of the storm. There's also a rawness and warmth to the production that helps the songs bleed into the ear with more electricity than before, and the riff/vocals interplay is streamlined for optimum mainlining. A fiery high point for a fiery high band. Hit it or quit it. Randomly colored LPs (hues range from silt grey to swamp green and beyond) in pro-printed jackets with art by the band plus a photocopied insert. Edition of 500".

eternal tapestry - palace of the night skies (three lobed, 2009)

"three lobed recordings is excited to announce the release of palace of the night skies, the new album from eternal tapestry. while this trio first turned heads with their expansive psych/kraut/blues guitar explorations as embodied within a series of small run cassette and CDR releases, their 2007 mystic induction album on not not fun firmly established the band as formidable players worthy of sharing the stage and spotlight with such current heads as wooden shjips and kinski. palace of the night skies ups the ante and represents this group’s heaviest jams to date, bringing forth some heavily righteous riffs and plenty of drum punishment.
palace of the night skies consists of two long-form tracks recorded in 2008 at the tapestry space in portland, oregon by the band’s core lineup of dewey mahood on guitar, nick bindeman (JOMF) on guitar and occasional vocals and jed bindeman (heavy winged) on drums. limited edition of 730 copies".
