Hot Blood

After a handful of EP's. an ambient/soundscape (more akin to Mogwai) and a debut full-length, Sweet nothing is pleased to announce the release of the new full-length from LA's Bluebird.

A mess of hair, guitars, collision and exhilaration set to the odd light show, burning effigies and guest musicians. In the way that Black Sabbath or even Queens of the Stone Age deftly blend heavy guitar riffing with shimmering vocal melodies, Bluebird makes catchy pop songs, driven by heavy layers of Jane's Addiction or early Soundgarden for that matter. The guitar textures and tasteful jams are far more reminiscent of 60's psychedelia, 70's warped skronk, and the MC5's throttled power-riff breakdowns (In fact, former MC5 guitar god, Wayne Kramer makes a guest appearance on the track, 'Beautiful Believer'), there's even nods to Drive like Jehu's patchwork guitar strata. Recent recruit Paul Fig (Ex-Amen) adds further cohesion to this five-piece. Produced by Joe Baressi (Melvins, QOTSA, Wezzer, Jesus Lizard).
