Dead Meadow: Old Growth

Dead Meadow
Just when you thought your face couldn't be melted off anymore, Dead Meadow come out of the wood work to finish you off properly.

The L.A. by way of NYC by way of D.C. trio have been playing their unusual blend of flawless guitar riffage, dreamy psych, heavy undulating rhythms, dirty blues-rock, environmental jams with eerie high-pitched vocals... (DEEP BREATH) since before the time when all anyone talked about was electroclash.

Their fifth album Old Growth comes to you on February 5 2008 from Matador Records.

Sample the track "What Needs Must Be"

Also, the band are featured in a movie about current psych bands, named after their song "Such Hawks, Such Hounds" Check out the trailer here:

Dead Meadow will be playing a special show at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City on January 16, 2008 to celebrate the release of their new album Old Growth (out 2/5/08). So excited to get it out, the band is willing to give anyone who attends the opportunity to pick it up a whole three weeks early. For $25 anyone looking to get their hands on Old Growth can purchase a ticket to Dead Meadow's January 16 show and their new CD. One great price, two great Dead Meadow experiences. Sorry, those searching for vinyl you'll have to wait for the proper street date — this offer applies to CDs only. Now you can purchase this package deal through Matador's online store, the Bowery Ballroom or in person at Other Music (15 East 4th Street between Broadway and Lafayette, NYC). However, you'll not receive the album at the time of purchase but instead, the night of the gig (1/16/08). You'll just need to swing by the merch table at the Bowery, present your receipt to our sales person and they'll hand over your Dead Meadow goods. Very important, no receipt, no CD, no exceptions.

I got all of the their records, i can't say i think 2 many people on here will like it, seeing it isnt poppy enough but they jam hardcore.

by far my most favorite band of all time. Tho, Old Growth wasn't nearly as satisfying as the self-titled album. and I kinda miss J.Simon's out-of-tune wailings, it's clear that he's trying to polish it off.
