Release Notes:
--------
Blood Meridian's third Album, 'Liquidate Paris!' was finished before it began.
What began as recording experiments in a moldy basement beneath a crack-infested
street in Vancouver resulted in nine unexpected new cuts from the quintet fresh
off the highway from promoting their second effort, 'Kick Up the Dust'
(V2/Outside). 'Liquidate Paris!' was recorded in the spring of 2007 by band
members' Matthew Camirand (guitar/vox), and Joshua Wells (drums) on a Tascam
8-Track Cassette recorder. Yes, CASSETTE. Remember those? The band is comprised
of Camirand and Wells, along with Keyboarder Shira Blustein, Jeffry Lee on the
other guitar and bassist Kevin Grant, or "KG" on his good side. The songs drift
back and forth between Lo-Fi Psychedelic-Country- Acoustic solo-efforts by
Camirand himself ('She Wears Black, I Wear White' and 'Long Way Around'), to
full-band, "in the basement" jams ('The Burning River of Guilt', 'She Calls
Me'). Fans of early the ESP folkier releases, The Bob Seger System records and
possibly Alexander "Skip" Spence's "Oar" album may well find comfort within the
grooves of Blood Meridians', 'Liquidate Paris!' The title of which was lifted
from the pulp WWII novel of the same name. The book being written by the
mysterious author, Sven Hassel, who's series of vicious and hilarious German war
books managed to entertain and inspire Camirand enough to steal the title for
Blood Meridians' own ends. 'Liquidate Paris!' will be the third release by
Michigans' Elevation Recordings, and will be the first to feature a Vinyl
release. Elevation Recordings is American Joe Greenwald and Canadian Boyd
Devereaux, the former being owner of Third Gear Records, the latter playing
Center in the NHL Hockey league. And the plot thickens... Camirand and Wells met
Devereaux while touring in their other group, Black Mountain way back in 2004
and after sleeping on his floor sealed a friendship with the Stanley cup winning
Canadian Hero. Devereaux is a frequent sight at Blood Meridian gigs, and a true
fan of great music even showing up after having his teeth knocked out in hockey
practice that very morning!
