Simmer and Shine

Ben Harper & Relentless7, White Lies for Dark Times (Deluxe Edition), “https://itun.es/us/5HHSQ”

The photo was taken yesterday at the Wild Horses monument in Vantage, WA. I was not expecting the badlands in Washington state, much less the great bridge crossing the Columbia river. Starting from the western edge of Idaho this morning, and a bit blue about the shift so I'll share with you my most played track from this trip:

"It takes a hundred miles of love To heal a mile of pain I never say goodbye to the scene And I never blow out a flame

And I got white lies for dark times And I don't need your crutch I'm kicking out stained glass windows And I'm tender to the touch

Shimmer and shine, we leave it all behind Shimmer and shine when you tell me that you're mine Shimmer and shine, shimmer and shine

Bring me the music for the revolution It, it puts my mind at ease To know we're the problem, we're the solution The cure and the disease

But life is trying to force me Force me to trust I've done all I can I do what I must"

If you like my scratchy, cough ridden voice, open your ear holes. The volume might be a bit higher than normal, so maybe turn down the volume a bit. #benharper #relentless7 #uptoyounow #terriblecovers #halffacedcovers #shennanigans

To go along with my

Massive kick of Neil Young (including Crazy Horse, and Buffalo Springfield) Ben Harper (including Relentless 7) have now been brought into the fold. I'm not sure what it is with Ben Harper and company, but I always find myself going back to him and their stuff, and finding "new" music I either haven't heard or didn't pay much attention to before in the past. I love it! It's one of the best things to come with being a music fan.

Ben Harper and Relentless7 - White Lies for Dark Times

Quem escuta pela primeira vez White Lies for Dark Times (2009, virgin records) se surpreende logo nos primeiros segundos do disco, após uma intro clássica la vem a paulada: Guitarras distorcidas e um Ben Harper com um vocal mais agressivo. Abandonando sua zona de conforto e junto a velhos amigos do inicio da carreira é que Harper monta a Relentless7, sua influencia por bandas de hard rock é claramente notável nos Riffs de guitarra.

Com musicas bem construídas e de peso, o cd não tenta ser tão conceitual e nem um Blockbuster, é musica para ser sentida. White Lies for Dark Times é um álbum que não permite apatia, ele tá ali, cru, é tapa na cara. Consistindo boa parte de progressive blues, o disco também conta com as conhecidas (e bem elaboradas) baladas de Ben harper.

A arte do CD é Surrealista e fantástica, as colagens ficam por conta do artista Winston Smith (Fez a capa dos dois últimos álbuns dos Dead Kennedys)

Com belas musicas como a energética Lay there & hate me(Ótimo Clipe), a pesada Shimmer & Shine e a balada Faithfully Remain o disco é uma agradabilíssima surpresa e explora um lado de Ben harper que é mais do que bem-vindo a aparecer em seus futuros trabalhos. No Brasil o álbum saiu em duas versões uma com um CD simples, e outra com um DVD bônus com o clipe de "Shimmer and Shine", um documentario chamado "Keep it Together".

Clique AQUI e baixe o album “White Lies for Dark Times” de 2009.

I'm serenaded by a chorus of a thousand burning cigarettes You've been taking chances, mama While I've been placing bets So tell it to the ashes, they know we served It may be good for the soul but it's hard on the nerves The very thing that drives you, can drive you insane Got a head full of thought crimes and a number with no name Got an eleventh hour Jesus and a mouth full of blame A casket lined with silver dollars and a number with no name
