Braindead Collective Christmas Track in aid of Shelter
The Whites Of Our Eyes is the 7 minute long, improvised result of the first collaboration between Oxford / London kraut-jazz-drone experimentalists Braindead Collective (featuring members of Guillemots, The Epstein, Keyboard Choir and others), and the Scotland-via-Lancashire purveyor of lo-fi creaks and drones, Rob St. John.
The single will be released on a pay-what-you-can basis, with all proceeds going to the homeless charity Shelter.
Recorded on the coldest day of a freezing British winter in Oxford's oldest church - St. Michael's on Cornmarket St - by microphones strategically strewn from pews and rafters, it captures the sound of a band reshaping and remaking the song in response to each other's improvisations.
Released 13 December 2010.
Players:
Chris Beard - electric organ
Jon Berry - guitar
Phil Oakley - bass
Sebastian Reynolds - synth
Greig Stewart - ambience + percussion
Rob St John - guitar + lead vocal
Andrew Warne - guitar
