SCHOOL OF SEVEN BELLS

Posted on November 17th, 2008 by ekko

From Ben “Secret Machines” Curtis and Alejandra and Claudia “On-Ari Library” Deheza comes Brooklyn’s School of Seven Bells, a band that sounds a little bit like the bands from whose ashes it rises . . . But not much.  It’s far gentler, and far more shoegazey than Secret Machines, but it also has a quality I didn’t hear so much in the sisters’ On-Air Library project.  Maybe that’s the male influence.  Or maybe it’s the folky, collaborative feel of the project.  Whichever, it’s good stuff and you can catch the band on tour.

  • Berkeley Place is also 6 blocks of Brooklyn real estate, emerging from Sackett St. and ending at Banana Hill, a small park that grows a foot each year from dog shit and the corpses of dead rats. Though its residents have gotten wealthier over the decades, Berkeley Place still houses folks of all backgrounds with interests in, well, everything.
  • WHAT THE HELL GOES ON HERE? Ekko reviews independent music, comic books, and whatever else interests him.
  • WHAT THE HELL IS INDIE MUSIC? An independent record label (or indie record label) is a record label operating without the funding of or outside the organizations of the major record labels. - Wikipedia.org That means they ain't in the RIAA, dude.

    HOW CAN I GET IN ON THIS?

    • Email me
      for the specifics but, basically:
    • I listen to all submissions of entire albums, not songs or compilations.
    • With rare exceptions I will not review material protected by the RIAA. So Sony, BMG, etc., don't start sending me crap. I'm not interested.
    • I don't listen to streams.
    • I won't read online comic-books. I may read .pdfs. I will read all hardcopy submissions.
    • I will review only submissions that I can recommend. I'm not here to do negative reviews.
    • Contact me to tell me to remove something. I'll take it down within 24 hours.
