The Big Sleep is a Brooklyn, NY based trio, comprised of Danny (guitar), Sonya (bass) and Gabe (drums). They formed somewhere around 2003.
In February 19, 2008, the band released Sleep Forever, follow‑up to their debut album Son Of The Tiger, released September 19, 2006. The Big Sleep will release a new album called «Nature Experiments», which will be out on January 31, 2012.
Considering how quiet they’ve been over the past couple years, you’d think the Big Sleep decided to suddenly take their name seriously after the tireless tour cycle behind 2008’s Sleep Forever LP. The truth is much simpler…
“We took a little break, worked on stuff separately and just lived our lives,” explains bassist/vocalist Sonya Balchandani.
“It obviously took longer than we thought it would,” adds guitarist/vocalist Danny Barria, “but I wasn’t feeling rushed or pressured. I just wanted to write good songs.”
Which brings us to the hefty hooks and sugar‑spun noise pop of Nature Experiments, the filler‑free full‑length Danny and Sonya have hinted at since 2000. That'd be the year the duo started cutting demos in the former's Brooklyn kitchen; demos that eventually shifted from a loose shoegaze sound (the You Today, Me Tomorrow EP) to the iridescent instrumentals and groove‑locked guitar anthems of the Big Sleep's debut album, 2006's Son of the Tiger.
As promising as that LP was, it's nowhere near as focused and forceful as the tractor beam tracks the pair started recording at the beginning of 2011. Helped in part by Sonya's increased use of GarageBand as a songwriting tool and a more collaborative creative process, Nature Experiments is as robust as a Big Sleep record gets, bursting at the seams with restless rhythms and choppy power chords ("Ace"), venomous vocals and blown‑out beats ("Meet Your Maker"), and effects pedals/synth pads that rub and ring out against some of the band's most…читать далее ↓
