PHILM Announce Interactive Video Chat
April 21, 2012, 12 years ago
PHILM - the Los Angeles power trio featuring SLAYER's Dave Lombardo, WAR's Pancho Tomaselli and Gerry Nestler of CIVIL DEFIANCE - will be conducting a live interactive video fan chat on Tuesday, May 1st at 1pm PT via Yowie. To tune in and ask the band "anything" click here.
Philm have signed to Ipecac Recordings and will release their debut album, Harmonic, on May 15th.
"We decided to record Harmonic in the intimate setting of a home, with various vintage recording equipment. " says Lombardo on the band's debut album. "The music was written collectively in an improvisational manner, unlike the majority of recordings I've done before. This was very important given this is my first recording where I'm carrying the title of Producer and performer. The album achieves a dense, unholy convergence of tones and discords. We also touch on haunting, desolate, ambient sounds. Our music tends to be written in a manner where we never know the outcome until we listen back to what we recorded. A Harmonic journey."
A highly anticipated release, Philm officially took form in late 2010 with a handful of tour dates and an early four-song demo that quickly began to make the rounds of in-the-know music critics.
Harmonic tracklisting:
'Vitriolize'
'Mitch'
'Hun'
'Area'
'Way Down'
'Harmonic'
'Exuberance'
'Sex Amp'
'Amoniac'
'Held In Light'
'Dome'

Philm's next show is April 28th at The Ruby Room in San Diego, CA, with more tour dates to be announced soon.
