Album Description
Blood On The Wall is the sound of a couch being tossed from the second story to thunderous applause. The feeling that one gets when you have finished off the last of the tequila and it’s on to the beer. That tinge of sadness late into the evening right before the dawn is about to break and the regrets and hopes of your life merge with first chirps of the birds starting their day. This three piece consisting of Courtney and Brad Shanks, yes they are really brother and sister, with Miggy Littleton hitting the skins are attuned to the mysteries of music. And how it can catalyze ones mood from from a stupor to where you can’t stop your feet and your hair is flaying in rhythm to the beat. Rock with heart that takes no prisoners. BOTW will sweep you away on a sonic cyclone and you won’t be missing Kansas after you are swept along with them. Blood On The Wall’s second record is, as the name might suggest, Awesomer. Recorded under the watchful eye of producer Nicholas Vernhes Fiery Furnaces, Black Dice, Silver Jews) the three have settled more into their own skin as they run from their heaviest song to date "Stoner Jam", out of the pop anthem "Mary Susan" and into the quick shredding of "Hey Hey" to end in your arms with "Going To Heaven." all the while they stick to the hooks and the playful dynamic that has made them the rock enchanters of the NYC music scene. Based out of NYC Blood On The Wall has been hard at work for about four years now. The sibling song writing brain trust of Brad & Courtney are rounded out by Miggy who was in Ida, White Magic, The Shit and who has played with numerous other artists on tour and in the studio. A chance meeting on a corner in Williamsburg that evolved with their shared love for old vinyl and then bore fruit as a single, which found no shortage of lovers. In 2004 they released their self titled debut to much acclaim and went on the road with Enon, Black Dice & Fiery Furnaces in the states, played some legendary shows in Brooklyn, toured Norway, and left a pile of cans, bottles, kick-ass memories all along the way. Once Awesomer hits expect that trail to grow prodigiously.
