The Painful Leg Injuries New Album Now Available At CD Baby


If The Devil's In The Details Then How How Many Details Can You Fit Upon A Match? The new sophomore full length CD-R (and DVD - R) by the Painful Leg Injuries is now available at CDbaby.com, click here to order!

The Painful Leg Injuries have integrated some bold experiments into their established melodic technique to yield an album that is both more experimental and more appealing than their previous releases.

On Backwards, Broken and Incorrectly, Bill and Suzanne created ambient electronic music with a fractured, alien beauty, large haunting atmospherics and distinct, emergent melodies. On If The Devil’s In The Details, Then How Many Details Can You Fit Upon A Match? Bill decided to consolidate the approach to make music that was no longer content to stay in the background, a more aggressive assertive sound that grabs hold of the listener’s attention. The Painful Leg Injuries’ refine their soundscapes into a busy, punk-fuelled version of world music from Venus.

Suzanne’s cello appears prominently in the album’s opening track Every Minute of Everyday Someone Is Having An Apocalypse, a taut piece of classically inspired noise that builds to a cathartic release. Bill digs back to his hardcore roots with I Did Not Agree With the Prophets offering up a vision what Lightning Bolt would sound like if they added a laptop. They’ve also integrated several new elements such as Bill’s homemade Sensorlab feedback machines, field recordings, and instrumentation that includes trumpet, kalimba, melodica, autoharp, xylophone, accordian, and homemade rubber band stringed instruments. On A Complete Lack Of Charisma and/Or Talent they layer a simple phrase played on a variety of instruments to yield a dense fog of strangely beautiful sounds.

Also the CD-R comes with our first DVD-R release with six videos directed by Jonah Goldstein, Matthew Lancit, John Ibarra and Bill Byrne.
