Brava Spectre – The Hands, The Water, The Hands That Occupy the Water

Don’t have this one physically in my hands yet since it’s not officially out until the end of this month, however the band was kind enough to pass along the album to me digitally to take an early listen and say a few words about it. However before I go any further I must extend a big thanks to One Base on an Overthrow for bringing these guys to my attention in the first place. So thanks!
Brava Spectre are a four piece based out of New London, Connecticut that are about to unleash a mammoth of a debut album The Hands, The Water, The Hands That Occupy the Water come the 27th. I describe it as mammoth because not only is it over an hour long while spanning across a mere eight songs, it’s also downright punishing for just about damn near all of it. It’s actually quite hard to describe just what these guys are doing. It’s definitely loud, a bit jazzy, and certainly experimental as the songs seem to string together a collage of sounds and directions. The vocals are fairly indecipherable but not in an annoying in your face screamo sort of way, rather they are buried underneath the drums and bass that are so busy taking command and absolutely destroying the woofers on your speakers. What I can tell you is that this album is really good and I am willing to bet a few of you that follow the blog will find this to be a bit enjoyable as well. Do check out the tune below…

At this time I’m not quite sure in which ways anyone wishing to pick this up will be able to do so, but I am sure simply contacting the band via their MySpace and expressing some interest will do the trick. If you’re in the New London area, then the band will have the CD with them at their release show at the Oasis on the 27th.
