This trio of Milan-born heartthrob brothers Amadeo and Simone Pace and sexiest female guitarist-ever Kazu Makino from Tokyo come to Berlin to our favourite venue to plug their new album “Penny Sparkle” out soon on 4AD.
Last time I didn’t see them cos I sold my ticket like an idiot but that was in another place, another time, another continent even. This time though, this time.
The sophistication of their records is what attracts the most about Blond Redhead. Dreamy female vocals atop a mess of spacey guitars and drums, somehow they manage to never make the same record twice.
Last album “23″ is a modern classic which will be rediscovered and hailed as a lost classic in a few years, mark my words but please don’t remind me if i’m wrong. That, like the new album, was produced by Alan Moulder, legendary shoegazer producer who has produced everybody from Jesus and Mary Chain to My Bloody Valentine, Ride, Nine Inch Nails, Smashing Pumpins, the list goes on and on. In the presence of greatness, it’s a nice place for a band, or a producer for that matter, to be. Enjoy.
