▓████▓▌ [ A B O U T . T H i S . R E L E A S E ] ▓▌
▓████▓▌ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ STATIC FILMS was born in 1997 as the musical outlet ▓▌
▓████▓▌ of Mark Trecka. It has consistently included ▓▌
▓████▓▌ collaboration with multi-instrumentalist / arranger ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Douglas Tesnow, in addition to various other ▓▌
▓████▓▌ performers, but always the songs of Trecka. The ▓▌
▓████▓▌ life of Static Films has so far been an exploration ▓▌
▓████▓▌ of experimental tone assembly, noise-rock, folk, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ rock æn roll and poetry. Static Films has walked ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and stumbled and rolled along these paths for seven ▓▌
▓████▓▌ plus years, to find itself in a place where it is ▓▌
▓████▓▌ embraced from all sides by soul and blues, folk and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ rock, and most notably, an impassioned desire to ▓▌
▓████▓▌ communicate the sense of the strived-for; to call ▓▌
▓████▓▌ out across the Great Divide. This is done with a ▓▌
▓████▓▌ thoughtful, albeit shifting aesthetic and an ▓▌
▓████▓▌ undeniably commanding presence, which Trecka ▓▌
▓████▓▌ believes not to be his own, but that of the Spirit. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Static FilmsÆ second full-length æLove of LightÆ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ illustrates a marked progression in both style and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ method for the everevolving songwriting of Mark ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Trecka and arrangements of Douglas Tesnow along ▓▌
▓████▓▌ with the revolving cast of players. While the first ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Static Films full-length, æForce Over DistanceÆ was ▓▌
▓████▓▌ recorded over three years at six sites in two ▓▌
▓████▓▌ different cities, æLove of LightÆ in great ▓▌
▓████▓▌ contrast, was recorded in just six days in one ▓▌
▓████▓▌ location. Locked in the windowless Projects Studios ▓▌
▓████▓▌ of Bloomington, IN, producer Jim Zespy and Static ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Films (as a group sometimes numbering ten players), ▓▌
▓████▓▌ executed over a yearÆs worth of heavily ▓▌
▓████▓▌ contemplated arrangements alongside a sense of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ spontineity in but a few all-night recording ▓▌
▓████▓▌ sessions, producing a coherent work of urgency not ▓▌
▓████▓▌ unlike NicoÆs æDesertshoreÆ or Tim BuckleyÆs ▓▌
▓████▓▌ æLorcaÆ. æLove of LightÆ is a record at once gothic ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and bluesy, varying from the piano and pump organ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ grandeur of the opener, ôLoss of Lightö, to the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ minimal acapella of the meditative ôCallingö. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Revolving around themes of impermanence and the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ struggle to embrace life in the face of death, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ æLove of LightÆ achieves a conceptual cornerstone ▓▌
▓████▓▌ in the soulful ballad ôThe Hanging of the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Inevitableö, which sounds something like æSongs of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Love and HateÆ-era Leonard Cohen covering Cat ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Power. Espousing an emphatic and active ▓▌
▓████▓▌ condemnation of death as a paralyzing notion, much ▓▌
▓████▓▌ of the album sounds like a last-ditch effort of one ▓▌
▓████▓▌ bearing the weight of a spiritual hangover. But ▓▌
▓████▓▌ like the aforementioned works along with perhaps ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Van MorrisonÆs æVeedon FleeceÆ, æLove of LightÆÆs ▓▌
▓████▓▌ sense of urgency rises as an uplift, an empowering ▓▌
▓████▓▌ call-to-arms rather than a sort of beaten-down ▓▌
▓████▓▌ surrender. Any sort of ôheavyö mood that æLove of ▓▌
▓████▓▌ LightÆ hinges on manifests not as depressing, but ▓▌
▓████▓▌ simply as urgent and quite serious. TreckaÆs voice ▓▌
▓████▓▌ calls out in the mounting piano and swelling organ ▓▌
▓████▓▌ and chorus of voices, an ultimatum of love and ▓▌
▓████▓▌ abandon: ôDay has come to decide where I stand / ▓▌
▓████▓▌ but I will lay in a crease in the palm of LoveÆs ▓▌
▓████▓▌ hand.ö The release of this record, as well as the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ subsequent months of touring to support it, will ▓▌
▓████▓▌ hope to establish Static Films as contemporaries to ▓▌
▓████▓▌ such artists as Bright Eyes and The Microphones. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ But while Static Films become a contender for the ▓▌
▓████▓▌ hearts of fans of these artists, they clearly stand ▓▌
▓████▓▌ as unique in their own right. Static Films has ▓▌
▓████▓▌ performed in the US and UK supporting bands such as ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Songs: Ohia, Appendix Out / Alasdair Roberts, Scout ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Niblett, Azita and others. ôIn an era where ▓▌
▓████▓▌ chemicals are prescribed to maintain bland facial ▓▌
▓████▓▌ expressions and level off emotions to a flat-line, ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Static FilmsÆ intensity is distinctly out-of-place. ▓▌
▓████▓▌ But thatÆs just the point... like Leonard Cohen ▓▌
▓████▓▌ singing hymns in a church backed by Mogwai and The ▓▌
▓████▓▌ Rachels.ö - UR Chicago ▓▌
