Out of the forest and onto the dusty plains, Nightfall Generator, the newest collection of songs from the lads of Bard’s Flying Vessel, has a vast, natural sound – like a tequila sunset dipping behind a giant mesa. Recorded by the band in Brooklyn, NY and mixed & mastered by David Glasebrook in Oakland, CA, it’s the group’s second release on Royal Oakie, following up their debut album from 2021.
Inspired by trips to the Moab Desert and Sergio Leone Westerns, the Brooklyn-based quintet mix twangy guitar riffs with driving percussion, blending the whole trip together with their always dreamlike harmonies. If the first BFV album called to mind images of wood elves and sorcery, then Nightfall Generator is a wind chime twinkling behind a Conestoga wagon. Throw another log on the fire, my friends, the night is not over yet…
“…pure psych-pop thrall — Syd-dipped vocals, backwards guitar, and a sun-baked strum.” - Raven Sings the Blues
