Unveil Enchanting “Be Gone Dull Cage” Video w/ NYLON Guys Full West Coast Tour w/ Bad Suns This August: 8/1: Bakersfield, CA @ B Ryders Debut Falling Bough Wisdom Teeth LP Out Now “Sharing their funk and psychedelic rock influences through visuals that reinforce its sound, the hypnotic track is set to a magical journey that sees the band’s members riding on bongo drums while coming in contact with electrified lily pads.” – NYLON Guys
Orange County alt-rockers Kiev released their debut full-length album, Falling Bough Wisdom Teeth, in October of last year. The band has recently announced a full West Coast tour this August with fellow Californians Bad Suns. To celebrate, Kiev has unveiled their otherworldly video for Falling Bough Wisdom Teeth LP cut “Be Gone Dull Cage,” a track that echoes with funk & psychedelic rock influences. A fitting introduction to the band’s unique genre, the video follows the quintet riding bongo drums & floating amongst electrified lily pads. The “Be Gone Dull Cage” video premiered today with NYLON Guys, and is also available to post & share HERE!
Falling Bough Wisdom Teeth was produced & engineered by Chris Shaw (Wilco, Phish, Super Furry Animals), and pays homage to collective band influences & minimalist pioneer Steve Reich. The members of Kiev have strong connections to the world of visual art, and have orchestrated & added a multi-faceted 3D element to their live performances. Additionally, the LP art was originally a band favorite by renowned contemporary artist Walton Ford, who gave the band his blessing to use it as the cover for Falling Bough Wisdom Teeth upon hearing the record & how it spoke to his painting. Stay tuned for more news from Kiev coming soon! |
