Formed in late 1997 in San Diego, the Black Heart Procession have been described as beautifully bleak and brooding indie rock with a dark side. Lyrically touching on the melancholy side of human nature, the five-piece band is appropriately named given its themes of isolation, depression, and heartache. The core members of Pall Jenkins and Tobias Nathaniel (Three Mile Pilot) also collaborate on-stage and in the studio with various musicians whose instruments include guitar, piano, percussion, and even saw.
When you hear something as beautiful, as haunting, as endowed with genuine emotion as the music of Devics, you can’t help but wonder how two mere mortals could have created it.Devics is vocalist Sara Lov and multi-instrumentalist and sometime singer Dustin O'Halloran, a musical duo from Los Angeles who found a home in Italy after signing to the UK label, Bella Union. Favorably compared to Mazzy Star, Portishead, PJ Harvey and Throwing Muses, Devics was acclaimed across the board by the British rock mags NME, Uncut and the Times of London. |
