SPILL NEW MUSIC: SILENT PICTURES DEBUT TRIPPY NEW VIDEO FOR “TIME HAS BROKEN”

SILENT PICTURES DEBUT TRIPPY NEW VIDEO FOR “TIME HAS BROKEN”

Green Fuse Records

Following the strength of their just-released sophomore album Let It Begin, the Bay Area’s Silent Pictures gives the reverb-laden track “Time Has Broken” the visual treatment.

The full album drifts from ethereal glam rock to noisy psychedelic shoegaze to pure Britpop, an indication of the wide-ranging experience of the musicians that make up Silent Pictures. Led by Alexander Mann, The skill level allows for the record to float between genres seamlessly, unable to stick to one certain genre, or even stay under the “psych” umbrella. Certainly Brian Jonestown Massacre comes to mind, as member Ricky Maymi had a hand in production, yet it’s easy to compare tracks like “Twisted Smiles” to Britpop trailblazers like the Jesus and Mary Chain and the Stone Roses. Not to be nailed down to one era either, Silent Pictures could be perfectly in line on a bill with more modern bands like Allah Lahs or Diiv.

The band will also make an appearance at this fall’s Desert Stars Festival in Joshua Tree along Dinosaur Jr. and others, September 23^rd-24^th. In the meantime, Let It Begin can be found on all DSPs, and the “Time Has Broken” video is now available via What Youth.
