Daniel Land & the Modern Painters
Daniel Land & the Modern Painters were formed in Manchester, UK in 2007 after witnessing an amazing DJ set by (German musician/producer) Ulrich Schnauss at the Big Chill. Met at University, and none of the band members are actually from Manchester but from different places around the England, Ireland and Scotland.
Daniel Land & the Modern Painters make music that is slow and stately, soporific and somnolent, like a sonic cathedral moving majestically through the icy fjörds of the frozen north, or something. If you used to genuflect before those groups that emerged in the slipstream of My Bloody Valentine like Slowdive and Chapterhouse, if you still keep a keen eye on developments in the area of echoey reverb-drenched experimental rock and artists such as Fennesz and Ulrich Schnauss - the latter, incidentally, recently reworked several DL&TMP tracks - then you might feel like immersing yourself in this hazy, shimmering sound.
The lineup: Daniel Land (vocals, guitar), Graeme Meikle (guitar), Oisin Scarlett (guitar), Andrew Galpin (bass), Jason Magee (drums). Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
