Forging a hallucinatory blend of synths and deep, slurred vocals that sound like Ian Curtis on cough syrup, New York's Silk Flowers features vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Aviram Cohen and keyboardist Peter Schuette from Soiled Mattress & the Springs, and Ethan Swan of Car Clutch, Emergency, and Corpse Kisser.
The band formed in 2008 and spent that fall touring with bands including Sightings, Tickley Feather, and No Age, who signed Silk Flowers to their label PPM. The "In This Place and Time" single arrived in early 2009, and the band's self-titled debut album -- which was produced by Saturday Looks Good to Me/City Center's Fred Thomas -- followed that summer. With the help of MNDR's Amanda Warner as producer, Silk Flowers went in a sleeker, slicker direction for their second album, 2011's Ltd. Form. ~ Heather Phares
