News from Kingsbury

From Kingsbury.net:

In November, we are going to release a new version of our website, kingsburymusic.net. On this new version, we are going to release our new EP "Lie To Me" for free. You will also be able to download everything we have ever recorded for free. We will have live recordings, random tracks that never got released, studio footage, all the album artwork, all the lyrics, and maybe even a few cover songs if we don't get sued for playing them.

Kingsburymusic.net is going to be the portal to everything we do from here on. Every time we record a new song, we will post it. All the pictures we take, the videos we make, the ideas we have, everything will be on the site. And we will post it as quickly as we can make it. Think of it as an online music blog, but the only content will be content we create.

The site is going to have a donations link, so that if you feel so inclined, you can help us with making our wonderful content. All of the donation money will be reinvested into our recording studio, gas for our van, and other infrastructure we may need to make more abundant and higher quality audio and video.

All of our records and related merchandise will still be on sale for all of you on Post-Records.com. Hardcopy releases will still be released on Post-Records, and if we get enough money from donations, we are going to press vinyl copies of "Lie To Me" and "The Great Compromise".

We strongly feel that the way people consume music and media is radically changing, and as technology changes, the relevance of the album will continue to come into question. Rather than try to fight a changing media climate, we would rather spend our time setting up a system that we can be as creative and constant as possible.

We are going to change the way we do things as a band, because our culture and technology is changing. We are excited about the change, and we hope you are too.

Kingsbury

On their debut full-length record “The Great Compromise”, Kingsbury have found the perfect balance between sonic adventurism and immediate song writing. Much like intelligent rock forefathers Radiohead and Wilco, Kingsbury have created much more than a great compilation of songs. They have created an incredible record that yearns to be listened to from start to finish, and has a timeless quality that makes for a mesmerizing album. Kingsbury lost two of its original members before they began to record “The Great Compromise”. But where other bands may have stumbled over the rapid line-up changes and restructuring, Kingsbury’s focus had never been better. The band stopped playing out, and the remaining three members, Bruce Reed, Mark Freeman, and T.J. Burke, dove head first into recording at their home studio. Bruce said, “We started recording with the mentality that none of our ideas were off-limits, but no one’s musical contribution was going on the record if it didn’t add something special to the song.” The results are a collection of dark, discordant, hypnotic rock songs, stripped of all of their unnecessary elements. The album was mastered by T.J. Lipple (Q and not U, Aloha) at Silver Sonya in Washington D.C. and released on Post Records. Kingsbury’s goal was to write one of the most artistically meaningful records to ever come out of Florida. After nearly a year of recording, they may have succeeded.
