feeble little horse is naturally delighted to present their third full-length LP,bitknot. The albumwas written, arranged, produced, and recorded by Sebastian Kinsler, Lydia Slocum, and JakeKelley across their respective homes in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.A spirited investigation into the unnatural space created between human nature and a culture ofconvenience, a synthesis of dirt and digital,bitknotby feeble little horse creates a languagewherein one can re-imbue a sanctity of interdependence away from consumptive “self-sufficiency” and materialism. “The album art is based on the coincidental core memory matrix,which was used in old computers to store memory / access information using 0s and 1s. Eachcore, or ‘bit,’ is accessed through the grid of wires, like a knot that stores secret details andmemories.”bitknotasks that we find newmodes of being through this grid, entrusting oneanother with the collaborative construction of these knots. This negotiation with an ever-developing hybrid reality is expertly exemplified in the album’s production–the buoyancy ofKinsler’s arrangementsprovide a perfectly balanced surface tension for the weight of Slocum’smeandering introspection as they playfully harmonize against saccharine hooks, walls of noise,a supercharged car battery’s worth of synths and samples dropped in the ocean of their guitar-driven songwriting framework, and some of Kelley’s most laser-focused drums to date to createa sonic chimera that is as likely to be found nascently developing in the early aughts as someunknown, chromatic future.Rhymes written with sidewalk chalk that refuse to be erased in the Anthropocene’s acid rain ofdestructive relationships, Herbert Marcuse’sOne-Dimensional Manmanifest through the spiritof a young woman born in the shadow of the Steel City’s industrial ghosts, a study of the clumsyalchemy of IRL and WWW–it is within these rhizomatic contradictions thatbitknotproliferates

Baby Wave is an alternative rock band with roots in Ohio and Nashville. Since the conception of the band in Athens, Ohio, they have primarily directed their energy into collaboratively writing and arranging live in the room and playing as many shows as possible, culminating in a refined body of work that is as thoughtful as it is intense. They are on the cusp of releasing their long-awaited debut album later this year. They have released several experimental recordings along the way, the most recent of these being a collab EP with Nashville cornerstone and Shoegaze legends Total Wife.
