Chimes of Bayonets / Credit / Nice Breeze

Saturday August 24 * doors at 1pm, music at 1:30 * $15-25 * TICKETS

Chimes of Bayonets Work. That’s what you hear on the 1st LP by Ithaca, NY’s Chimes of Bayonets. Drop the needle and you’ll hear it. Strength, energy and work. It’s akin to a finely carved piece of wood. Chimes of Bayonets: a multi-headed beast with adventurous yet strident passages. Across their 2 EP’s and this their first full length, you’ll be reminded of Kerosene 454, Unwound and June of 44 and like those bands, Chimes set forth with a self-made, DIY spirit that is reflected in their punchy and unexpected songs. Sharpened riffs, surging and melodic bass lines and a painter-style approach to drumming make Chimes of Bayonets sound like a new take on 90’s post-hardcore.

Nice Breeze - "Yanked from the gnarled drool of the Fall and Swell Maps, the uncooked candor of Half Japanese and Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments, the sandpapered fragmentations of early Pavement and Silver Jews, and the ghosts of many heroic basement bands still haunting the magnets of discarded four-track recorders. The result is an ever-changing, beautifully-deteriorating sound capable of primitive slobber, muscle-moving fire, and profound Ashbery-worthy poetics, often all within the span of one chopped verse. Let’s call it Nice Breeze." -- Marc Masters

Our upcoming records "Everything Disappears" will be out later this summer/early fall on Siltbreeze Records.
