\nIt’s been three years since Philadelphia\u2019s psych surgeons\u00a0Bardo Pond<\/a>\u00a0gave us something new \u2013 not that we need\u00a0anything\u00a0new necessarily, because their back catalogue is pretty exemplary. I’ve always thought the five-piece has been one of the most underrated bands of its ilk in the past decade. Fire Records can only bolster that claim, by lovingly reissuing 2006\u2019s\u00a0Ticket Crystals<\/em>\u00a0in a LP-only edition. Double vinyl and adorned with Joy Feasley\u2019s new artwork, the album typifies the calculated yet fluid doom template that unrelentingly drives their sound, yet also showcased the pastel undercarriage that lightens the load enough for it to become immensely immersive rather than bludgeoning.<\/p>\n

I realise this is a Sunday, but seeing as this is a stellar reissue I thought I\u2019d give a special edition of \u201cFriday Cover Up\u201d to include the cover of the Beatles\u2019 \u2018Cry Baby Cry.\u2019 Originally recorded for and broadcast by the BBC as part of their commemorations of the 25th anniversary of John Lennon\u2019s death, it exemplifies the whole point I crafted the Cover Up segment in the first place. Taking great music and imbuing it with their own personality to craft a unique vision, this is Lennon in an iron lung filled with cryogenic fluid and absinthe.<\/p>\n

Bardo Pond \u2013 Cry Baby Cry (Beatles cover)<\/a><\/p>\n

And here is another\u00a0Ticket Crystals<\/em>\u00a0classic\u2026<\/p>\n

Bardo Pond \u2013 Destroying Angel<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Pre-order\u00a0Ticket Crystals<\/em>\u00a0here<\/a>. The band aim to release a new record in the latter stages of 2013, whilst also planning to release an exclusive 12\u201d covers record for Record Store Day, so we haven\u2019t heard the last of this stellar band.<\/p>\n
