Barr - Summary (CD, CD)

*BARR is the project of wandering pop-dynamo Brendan Fowler, in which he
half-sings over half-tunes, creating a set of confessional songs that challenge
the listener's preconceptions of underground music
*Holding articulate dialogues that fall between lyrics and spoken word,
Brendan's words are backed by a deceptively simple but emotionally disarming
melodies, formed from a sparse arrangement of bass, drums and piano. This lo-
fi aesthetic is the perfect platform for an album of candid and exploratory
songs about love, absence, realisation and experience.
*Brendan has toured extensively with previous band mates Animal Collective,
and is also in a group with JD Sampson of Le Tigre, called New England Roses.
*His debut full- length Beyond Reinforced Jewel Case was released by Kill Rock
Stars in the U.S. andUpset the Rhythm in Europe earlier this year.
*The LP and the CD have different art, the LP comes on coloured vinyl and is
limited to 500 copies.
