What their label says...
· Comprised of two key members of Dischord’s
hyper-percussive Black Eyes (Daniel Martin-
McCormick on vocals and guitar, and Jacob Long
on bass) as well as Damon Palermo on drums, Mi
Ami from San Francisco have harnessed the energy
of their previous work and focused it, laser-style,
into a pure stream of heavy, concentrated playing.
Pulling from 60s free jazz, dub, minimalism, disco,
and African music, the band manipulates rhythm,
negative space, and the physicality of song.
· ‘Watersports’ was recorded mostly live over 2½
days in San Francisco. Thematically, it’s a study on
fear and anxiety. The record’s closer, ‘Peace Talks/
Downer’, with its layered instrumentation and
reverential tone, speaks of hope, bringing the
‘Watersports’ experience full circle: from anxiety
comes hope; from fear, love.
· Available on CD and LP. The vinyl format
comes with a code to download a digital copy
of the album.
