This review starts out with a snippet section quoted from the original press release, revealed in Italic.
San Francisco's The Yellow Dress will release their third
and heavily-anticipated album, "Faint Music // Ordinary Light," in less
than a month. Recorded and mixed, entirely analog, at John
Vanderslice's Tiny Telephone Studios, produced by Ian Pellicci
(Deerhoof, The Dodos) and mastered by Paul Oldham (Bonnie "Prince"
Billy, Sonny and the Sunsets), the album features an 8-person line-up of
San Francisco Bay Area musicians, plus guest vocals from several more,
mostly from the underground DIY scene in San Francisco and Oakland. The
Yellow Dress has been called a "supergroup" several times throughout its
6+ year lifespan, which is appropriate since every member has at least
one other local project in which they perform. The band draws much
inspiration from the local literary community and often finds themselves
performing at events for folks such as McSweeney's and The Rumpus; the
name of the album comes from the Robert Hass poem "Faint Music." Preorder digital and vinyl editions of the album from Bandcamp before the official release on January 4, 2014.
