I have a new remix up for release this week. "Too Early" by Sorrow Stories releases Friday, April 3rd. It's listed as the Bow Ever Down mix because the categories are made up and points don't matter. You can hear it on this week's set from Colin Spencer! www.mixcloud.com/ColinSpencer...
Posts by The Bleak Assembly
Wrapped up a couple of new Bleak Assembly tracks this week. It feels so good to be making music again.
Your assignment is to find some @stabbedbyprongs.bsky.social in the usual places. Real industrial and dance music mixed on real hardware screwed to bits of plywood. Your earbuds are going to love it. Also @thebleakassembly.bsky.social and @boweverdown.bsky.social - Kimberly's voice is what you need
Cover art for the single - four sketched images of Kimberly.
The new Bow Ever Down single, "Complete", is available now on Bandcamp!

Keep your ears open for this upcoming Saturday!
I recently had a chat with Colin Spencer @colinspencermusic.bsky.social via Sorrow Stories on Stabbing Westward @stabbingwestward.bsky.social and everyone else will get the chance to hear it very soon! 😉
Did Draisaitl think he was defending the pass or something? I can't believe Skinner was so far out of the net. I guess it'll be Pickard in game 4. Oof.
Happy Bandcamp Friday! What are you picking up today?

It's May 2nd, and #BandcampFriday. Take a sec to check out some artists you've never heard and snag a couple fresh tunes.

We're coming up on the first anniversary of debut EP, ExoAnthro! Its tales of a crumbling beige timeline almost seem aspirational lately. 😅
Happy 'Bandcamp Friday' everyone! 🙂

Happy to see the new Bow Ever Down EP getting the DJ spins. It's such a good EP. Kimberly poured her heart and soul into this one.
"On My Eyes", the powerful new EP from Bow Ever Down, is available now on Bandcamp. Four great new songs chronicling Kimberly's time in Kurdistan.

The new Bow Ever Down EP has been mixed and mastered. Kimberly will announce the release date, but suffice it to say, it will be soon!
If I had a dollar for every time I've had to tell someone to turn off noise suppression ...
We finished tracking for the new Bow Ever Down EP last night. Just needs a little bit of post-pro polish and it'll be ready. After that ... there's frankly so much new stuff to work on that it's a little daunting.
If true, it'll be time to pull all Bleak Assembly content off of Spotify.
Song of the day! My dear friend Dave has just released a beautiful cover of the Golden Palominos' song, "Little Suicides".

The replacement bass tuners are supposed to arrive today and they can't come soon enough. This week has taught me how much I rely on that damn bass to solve chord progression and transition issues in songs. I'm sitting here with a song in my head and CAN'T. FIGURE. OUT. THAT. LAST. FUCKING. NOTE.

So much for working on that bassline tonight. That's a first. The tuning peg sheared off.

Yeah, this. The reason it works for us is because we're in different countries and we can tag-team our existential dread. We're currently working on a stack of new Bow Ever Down tracks that K. wrote over the last few months. If I had to write new Bleak music right now, I'm not sure how that'd work.
Yes! I've really enjoyed their last two albums but Priest = Aura is still just flawless. Love Witch Hunt, the Disillusionist, Mistress ... so many great tracks.
I'll say magpie or prairie dog.

Our sister project, Bow Ever Down, has a great new release out. It's a bit different and not the sort of thing you'll hear at the clubs. A voice, a piano, and very little else. Kimberly has an incredible voice. boweverdown.bandcamp.com/album/unveiled
And having a positive ratio of followers to following won't either.
