Rough Trade Exclusive. With Fanzine featuring drawings, a short story, pics, journal entry, tabs etc. Limited to 100 copies. Catalog Number: CON961LPX Color: White Format: LP UPC: 5057805526384 Blue Bendy release their highly anticipated debut album So Medieval via state51. So Medieval captures all the musical foibles, idiosyncrasies and departures from the norm which Blue Bendy have displayed across their previous releases. Expressing their sound over the course of a full record for the first time, So Medieval is an explosive mix of genre, atmosphere and emotions. The end result is something rare for a new band: a debut album which is as experimental as it is confident and assured, as tender as it is visceral, as quiet as it is loud, as bloody as it is teary. Blue Bendy have struck a balance between being obviously skilled musicians, writing complex, layered, overlapping and ambitious compositions, while also utilising space, breadth, and restraint. Their music is bursting with dynamism, exploring push-pull dynamics that results in something ceaselessly unpredictable. For fans of Pavement, Can, Pere Ubu and Black Country, New Road.
