Hey man, how do you stay on top of all things Thought Forms (and Thought Forms-adjacent) so goddamn well? Not to mention all things LOW and LOW-adjacent.

You're kinda my hero.

Be honest... are you an awesome band publicist? If so, can you hook me up?

Charlie Romijn interviewed about living the art life, a bit about how the latest Thought Forms album was made, surrendering to trust, and the forthcoming new record by Silver Stairs of Ketchikan:
https://fromnowon.wales/new-blog/201...-by-jenn-kirby



New video for Thought Forms' "The Lake", created from footage recorded over the years by Charlie:
https://soundblab.com/news/19230-tho...-it-first-here



Lastly, for spending some money wisely, code "thelake" would give you a 25% discount on all orders placed during this weekend on Thought Forms' Bandcamp:

I don’t see anything about a new album. When’s the new album out!? The new Thought Forms alb that is.

They were already sold out last night when I got to read the e-mail notification from Bandcamp.

Strange thing about the Silver Stairs of Ketchikan bandcamp. There have been posts on Instagram and twitter suggesting a new record is in the works, so it may be just temporary.

Charlie Romijn's instagram is one of the best things in the entirety of the internet:

Quote:
10 years on from it's original release, Thought Forms long out of print self-titled debut album is being re-released by Invada Records on glorious neon pink vinyl in brand new packaging, designed by the bands own Charlie Romijn.

You can buy it here :

www.invada.co.uk/collections/all-products/products/thought-forms-10th-anniversary-re-issue-hand-signed-numbered-neon-pink-vinyl

“This is soaring, epic stuff, the sound of effects pedals being tortured and sacrificed to the gods of thunder, phasers set to stun, and delays and fuzz too.” - Kerrang Magazine, KKKK

​"Reverberating guitars evoke satellite frequencies searching for life and finding it in fuzzy, distant screams. Space-age shoegazers need look no further for their next trip." Rock Sound, 7/10

"Thought Forms have created a record that is pure testament to kids with guitars. Think Sonic Youth, think My Bloody Valentine.... think Mogwai. Big fuck-off riffs with nice beefy distortion, hazy power slides through alt rock miscellanea." - Rock-A-Rolla




credits

released April 26, 2019

Recorded and mixed at State Of Art, Bristol, by Stuart Matthews

Mastered at Optimum, Bristol, by Shawn Joseph

Sleeve and insert by Charlie Romijn

Cover drawing by Cloudboy

Vocals on "David, 18" by Matt Williams




and that's not all.

There's more new artwork merch on their bandcamp site too:

Thought Forms just announced EDEIDA by Silver Stairs Of Ketcikan, check it out here.

Here’s what they say about it:
“Hey everyone - Charlie from Thought Forms here.

You may have seen online already that I have a solo project called Silver Stairs Of Ketchikan and my first album 'EDEIDA' is available to pre-order from today, on digital, CD and LP! There are T-shirts too if you need some summery black clothes.

The album also features contributions from my fellow Thought Forms bandmates as well as Jake and Pete from Get The Blessing, the Finnish composter Suvi-Eeva Äikäs and my dad Paul on tambourine. It was mastered by Tim Allen (Bat For Lashes etc) and recorded at J & J Studio here in Bristol.

If you feel like checking it out, the first two videos are up here :
silverstairsofketchikan.weebly.com/videos.html

I hope you like it!

and if not, there'll be some tasty Thought Forms vinyl later in the year!

x Charlie”

The artwork included with the bonus edition for the Clean album nicely matches with this Low poster I have hanging on my wall, from 2006 when they played their entire Things We Lost In The Fire album, as part of the Don't Look Back series.

sounds like the new album consists of unplugged versions of existing songs with different titles. Kind of a bummer that there's no new songs, but from what I've heard so far it does sound very good!


Here's a YT teaser. And here's a full clip of one song: Wide Eyed (the unplugged version of 'Missouri')
