It's been a while, but both dull knife and Balaclavas have returned.
Please note that the new dull knife URL is http://www.dullknifelabel.com

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Balaclavas are from Houston, Texas where everything is eternally
blistered, chemically altered, and forlorn. They are a band in the
realest sense- they come on like a gang, play with one mind, hunt in
one pack, party and fight together in a flat wild nowhere. Unlike the
common livestock being unloaded into music this is a band of
predators. Perpetual outsiders; there will always be a wrong side of
the tracks and they'll always be from it.
Roman Holiday was a paean to Caligulan excess; Snake People is a
declaration of jihad. "Legs Control" comes in with a disorienting
desert wind that claws at your ears. From the start, you are alone
with them in an alien landscape.
There is something in the proliferation of forms that offends the
thinking and feeling eye. Snake People gives voice to that eye.
Forward seeing, clear in its intonation when it sends back the baby
food being brought out on an unending succession of plates. Ennio
Morricone and scratchy noise guitars on storm-dub rhythms like if the
heaviest incarnation of 1970s Pink Floyd were a future punk band
invested by Jodorowsky to score Dune. You can hear storms approaching
and sandworms underfoot. Its an evil dance they're bringing.
Snake People shall be unveiled on the Eighteenth Day of October in the
Year of Our Lord two thousand and eleven. It will be made available
by publisher Dull Knife on the phonographic record, compact disc, and
digital mediums to ensure maximum compatibility with your playback
device. You may review literature pertaining to your potential
involvement and procure your pre-order at http://www.dullknifelabel.com
. Audio samples of "Legs Control" and "Hard Pose" are being
disseminated at http://balaclavas.bandcamp.com .
