I requested Blessed Are The Bonds last year and made a donation to their funds, it arrived a couple of days ago.
Was it worth the wait?
Abso-f  ing-lutely - it is a fantastic album, and the artwork and presentation is superb - even the shipping box is artworked - brilliant. The music is breathtaking, there are so many textures and emotions present in this it would have easily been in my top-5 for last year had it arrived in time. I cannot gush praise on this album enough - unmissable.
The free mail-out copies are now all gone - if you missed it you've missed it, but you can download it for free from their website - go get it now!!
/edit: and make a donation - the guys deserve it! |
I couldnt agree more with everything you've said here Dean. It took five months to get here but it was an awsome CD, if I had got it last year I would have made it my album of the year at the time. Anyone know where I can get their first album from?

Thought you would enjoy this friendly coversation with a college buddy upstate (new york). There is some significance here.
lowalkoroc: and then we left before black dahlia went on
ProgressiveBagel: oh yeah
lowalkoroc: cus they are teh suck
ProgressiveBagel: there good musicians
lowalkoroc: yea
ProgressiveBagel: its just i see too much king diamond
lowalkoroc: hahas
ProgressiveBagel: i just got some cd the other day
ProgressiveBagel: its awesome
ProgressiveBagel: free too
ProgressiveBagel: which is really awesome
lowalkoroc: what cd
ProgressiveBagel: the pax cecilia - blessed are the bonds
lowalkoroc: LOL
lowalkoroc: YES
ProgressiveBagel: contacted them
lowalkoroc: I HAVE THAT CD
ProgressiveBagel: email adress
lowalkoroc: THE GUY WORKS AT STARBUCKS NEAR ME
ProgressiveBagel: *home addresss
lowalkoroc: GAVE ME A CD
ProgressiveBagel: babam
ProgressiveBagel: lol
ProgressiveBagel: are you serious?
lowalkoroc: its pretty sweet
lowalkoroc: im not f**king kidding
lowalkoroc: lol
ProgressiveBagel: tell him i ordered it
ProgressiveBagel: f**kING SICK
lowalkoroc: lol
lowalkoroc: the packaging is cool too
lowalkoroc: the brownness
ProgressiveBagel: yeah
ProgressiveBagel: thats funny
ProgressiveBagel: i knew they lived upstate
ProgressiveBagel: thats creepy
lowalkoroc: how the sh*t did i know you were gonna say pax cecilia
ProgressiveBagel: cause
lowalkoroc: as soon as you said "i got a CD for free"
ProgressiveBagel: i think they are the only band that gives away free cd's
ProgressiveBagel: lol
lowalkoroc: i was like what if it was pax cecial lol
ProgressiveBagel: what does he play?
lowalkoroc: idk
lowalkoroc: ive never seen him again
ProgressiveBagel: uh oh
ProgressiveBagel: famous
lowalkoroc: he just randomly was like "you look like someone who would appreciate music
ProgressiveBagel: holy sh*t
ProgressiveBagel: LMFAO
ProgressiveBagel: thats gold
lowalkoroc: yea it was funny
lowalkoroc: i thought it was gonna be some starbucks pussy folk bullsh*t
lowalkoroc: so i didnt even open it for like a week'
ProgressiveBagel: haha
So...what was the significance to this meaningless conversation? The unknown band member is no longer working at starbucks. Does this mean a tour is coming? Or a termination for giving away merchandise not related to starbucks?

Their first album Nouveau is quite good,but it's just not on the same level as Blessed are the Bonds.

The CD was pretty good on first listen...even though I was focused on Call of Duty 4  . 'The Tree' was awesome.

Wow.... that may be too much for one day.... 
Both great albums.

Yes, so far on the first listen I've some to the conclusion that music will never be perfect because music will never be this album 
But then again, I'm sure theres a flaw or too in there. VERY hidden
