To confuse parts for the whole is inevitable with Palm. On their latest effort, Nicks and Grazes, Palm embrace discordance to dazzling effect. InchWe wanted to reconcile two potentially opposing aesthetics,Inch Kasra Kurt of the band says. InchTo capture the spontaneous, free energy of our live shows while integrating elements from the traditionally gridded palette of electronic music.Inch In order to avoid what Kurt refers to as InchPalm goes electro,Inch the musicians spent years educating themselves on the ins and outs of production by learning Ableton while also experimenting with Inchthe percussive, textural, and gestural potentialInch of their instruments. To this end, the band continued the age-old tradition of instrument-preparation, augmenting guitars with drumsticks, metal rods and, at the suggestion of Charles Bullen (This Heat, Lifetones), coiling rubber-coated gardening wire around the strings. The unruliness of the prepared guitar on songs like InchMirror MirrorInch and InchEager CopyInch contrasts with the steadfast reproducibility of the album's electronic elements. While Palm cite Japanese pop music, dub, and footwork as influences on this album's sonic palette, they found themselves returning time and again to the artists who inspired them to start the group over a decade ago. InchWhen we were first starting out as a band, we bonded over an appreciation of heavy, aggressive, noisy music,Inch vocalist/guitarist Eve Alpert reflects. InchWe wrote parts that were just straight-up metal.Inch Kurt adds, InchI found myself rediscovering and re-falling in love with the visceral, jagged quality of guitars in the music of Glenn Branca, The Fall, Beefheart, and Sonic Youth, all important early Palm influences.Inch Returning to the fundamentals gave Palm a strong foundation upon which they could experiment freely, resulting in their most ambitious and revelatory

The time has come! After the last album of the skate punk legends from California came out in 2016, we have been offered an acoustic EP and a vinyl compilation by Pulley at the time of the pandemic - but apparently it always goes more diligent! So, Scott Radinsky and his rascals have just recorded a new album, The Golden Life!Scott Radinsky explains how the new album came about this way, InchThe writing process for this album was a little different because of the pandemic. When everyone was out of work at the beginning, we decided to write new material, we had a lot of time to devote to the music and were able to flesh out the songs until we felt they were ready.InchIn 2021, both an EP of four Pulley classics made into acoustic tracks and the compilation InchEncoreInch were released.InchThe difference between this and the acoustic album is that here everyone contributed and the songs were all new, whereas the acoustic album was just a different interpretation of the music that had already been released,Inch Scott says.InchWe're all proud of how these songs turned out musically and sonically and can't wait to play them live and share them with everyone.InchPulley is an American punk rock band from Simi Valley, California.
