| | Pilot Light Color Everything CD Pilot Light Discography of CDs
Formed around 1996, Pilot Light was a 'true' band in the best sense of the word. Consisting of former members of The Crashdummies and Alien Detector, Pilot Light is the result of complete musical collaboration. In 1999, their only album "Color Everything" was released with critical acclaim and charted prominently in East and West coast college radio. Christian Andrew Grooms' production accented the band's organic feel while also invoking the nostalgia and melodicism of The Beach Boys and the Velvet Underground. Shortly after, the group disbanded with 3 of the members forming Basement Apartment--and the rest...is history. However, "Color Everything" remains an exceptional account of the band's unique musical 'chemistry' that happens only once or twice in a lifetime...

After several months of vigorous work in the studio, the Philadelphia-based pop-rock band grandfabric have just released their first full-length album, Orphan Age, on their own Lark Lane label. The album, which was mixed, engineered, and produced entirely by the band at Indre Studios, is an eclectic mix of songs ranging from pop rock to alt-country rock to indie-like ballads. Imbued with undertones of discordant noise tracks, and modeled in the tradition of groundbreaking bands like Wilco and Pavement, Orphan Age is an ambitious first effort that will draw listeners in with its clever hybrid of melody and arranged deconstruction. A true labor of love, Orphan Age is as much about the making of the album as it is about the songs."In terms of who we worked with, we did everything ourselves," says bassist Brian Wilkinson, "Pete Girgenti, our drummer, works as an engineer at Indre and this was literally his first full recording project. I guess that aspect was both liberating and scary. While it gave us the opportunity to experiment and took a lot of the pressure off, we really didn't know how the final product was going to turn out."While recording, grandfabric was heavily influenced by Sam Jones' documentary, I Am Trying To Break Your Heart, which followed Wilco through the process of making their most recent album, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. "I think we felt a certain kinship with Wilco because we were doing the same thing that they did with Yankee-recording, mixing, and producing ourselves," says songwriter Andrew Toy. Drawing parallels between their own experience and that of Wilco, Toy points out that "there are moments in Jones' documentary that illuminate the complexity of the self-made album. In the film, Wilco admits that, though amazingly liberating and ...

My Musical HistoryThe son of a nurse and a truck driver, I was born in Clarksburg, WV, 1972. I began playing music seriously since the fifth grade when I was introduced to the cello. I added the trombone to my list of instruments the following year, which lasted through high school. I came to not like Monday mornings, mostly because I had to walk a mile to school carrying a cello, trombone and a book bag. They allowed me to leave them at school during the week. Fridays were bearable...I mean c'mon, it was Friday.During High School, I eventually got a hold of a bass guitar. As a member of the early MTV generation, I thought the bass players were the coolest guys in the band. They didn't need to be out front. I think that's why I chose cello to begin with. I figured, until I had attained a bass, I could just turn it on it's side. When I graduated in 1990, I started college at West Virginia University. I started out in engineering, but that changed. Who do I blame? The Snake Worshippers...I helped to form, The Snake Worshippers, with Bryan Stealey (editor, Racer X Magazine) and Gregg Lowley (drummer, The Recipe) at the end of my freshman year in college. The band lasted about 3 months and a 3 song demo. "A Date With Mary Jane," "Six Feet Under," and "Not Operates." We had to go our separate musical ways, because we all knew, we would never live up to what The Snake Worshippers needed to be. We were not worthy to convey the message. Whatever that message was. My sophomore year I bought an electric guitar and thought I should join a band. I called Loren Duffey. He said that they weren't looking for a guitar player, but they really needed a bass. I told them that was my main instrument and I joined his 6 piece cover band, "DV8." Alan Kozlay, was the keyboard player of that band. After a couple of good, odd, crazy years with DV8, the older members graduated. Loren, Alan, and I decided to look for another player to do some original stuff. We found Greg Riordan and started Hush. After a year with Hush, I decided to form "Balloonhead" with Gregg Lowley and Mike Walls (I the Low, Lester James and the White Flames. ) Balloonhead gained a meager following and was the opening track on one of the Morgantown Compilation Records ...

Whether or not it is his intention, Justin Broadrick's Jesu project continues to move into ever more song-oriented material, while never lessening the volume or the sheer melodic thud of his attack. Opiate Sun is released on Mark Kozelek's Cabo Verde imprint. Initially, it was conceived as the first of a projected two-part EP idea: Broadrick originally wanted each EP to feature a collaboration between his live (Dave Cochrane and Phil Petrocelli) and studio (Ted Parsons and Diarmuid Dalton) bands. In the end, Broadrick rejected the idea and plays everything here himself and combines all four songs on one release. Does that narrow the possibilities for the final product? Yes, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. These songs cover just under 26 minutes in length. The opener, "Losing Streak," comes dangerously close to a cough syrup-intoxicated Swervedriver -- with Broadrick's way up-front vocal sounding not unlike that of Adam Franklin, but it's even heavier, sludgier, and -- conversely -- more melodic. "Morning Sun," the closer, sounds like anything but. It is instead a dirgelike piece of droning, guitar-fueled funereal post-rock with a tortoise crawl of a vocal melody that extends no further than four notes in total. "Opiate Sun," the set's longest piece and title track, covers no new ground at all, but with its gorgeous multivalent guitar layers, slow processional drumming, and middle-timbre bassline -- the only thing not distorted on the cut -- it doesn't need to because its shattered emotion comes bleeding through in spades. "Deflated" is the most distorted, throbbing, metallic piece here, though it too contains a lovely lyric line that contrasts wonderfully with the low, low, low-end bassline and open-tuned guitar riffs. While it's true that Broadrick continues to mine the emotional and sonic terrain of every Jesu release, it's a sound so obsessive in its execution that it is nearly addictive for the listener. ~ Thom Jurek
