...according to our Phil on 19 November 2009.

Here's a new thing on Blackest Rainbow. This one is by The Blue Tree and a self titled affair. Very lazy....Anyhoo... The Blue Tree consist of 2 folks.... one of which is Andrew Paine who runs the Sonic Oyster label and frequently does musical things with Richard Youngs and the other chap is Matthew Shaw who is the head honcho of Apollolaan Records (Plastic Crimewave Sound etc). Together they create an other worldy experience where weird drones, distorted vocals and a really echoey piano all fit together like a regular glove slipping onto a regular hand. It's pretty mellow and easy on the ear... there's nothing too challenging here at all. They've created some amazing sounding soundscapes this CD (limited to 100 copies only) . A few of the tracks really remind me of an alien version of Africa or something. Well interesting as you'd expect from camp Blackest Rainbow!

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Debut release for this collaborative project between Andrew Paine (frequent Richard Youngs collaborator, and Sonic Oyster head honcho) and Matthew Shaw (the man behind Apollolaan Records). Six tracks of experimental excursions into far off plains of weird-ed out crisp autumnal psyche, blending piano, guitar, distroted vocals, earthy drones and much more. Limited to 100 copies in digipak with professionally printed full colour stickers of photographs of the Blue Tree.
