Small Black - Best Blues [New Vinyl LP]

Description: Gracing the cover of Brooklyn band Small Blacks new record, a mysterious woman walks alone on the dunes at dusk, amid pockmarked sand. She's the subject of a found photo, one of many rescued with the warmth of a blow dryer and a fireplace, by singer Josh Hayden Kolenik after Hurricane Sandy flooded his familys Long Island home. The faded image offers clues and invites viewers to construct their own narrative, one that escapes even the pictures taker, Koleniks father. To put it simply, Best Blues is an album about loss, the specific loss of precious people in our lives, but also the loss of memories and the difficult fight to preserve them. I spent months trying to scan all these images & letters, most covered with ocean dirt, and in doing so discovered what people often find in their familys past: that they are a hell of a lot like those whod come before, says Kolenik. The chorus of standout Boys Life echoes this sentiment with the refrain pictures of youth/picturing you, over a track that itself was an old demo re-discovered by accident by the band, during a late night jam session at a cabin in Upstate NY.
