Reorganization, evolution, DEVOLUTION?

Brainclaw has been in hibernation, after suffering some severe blows to its superstructure. Do we die? Crumple? FOLD UNDER PRESSURE??

We say NO! What does not kill us makes us… stranger?

We will be emerging soon, new album finally in hand, to delight, enthrall and generally scare the hell out of Brainclaw fans everywhere.

The time is nearly upon us.

You, the faithful, have waited so patiently. Wait just a bit longer, and your patience will be rewarded in spades.

Davidclaw out.

Gary and David spent Sunday creating a darker cover of a Pink Floyd song that was already pretty dark, “Comfortably Numb.”

You can check it out HERE.

Enjoy.

“Comfortably Numb” was featured on the platinum-selling Pink Floyd album, The Wall, released in 1979.

David will be performing this song and several others live with Gary at his next show, so stay tunes for show dates.

Be sure to check Gary’s MySpace page for all kinds of new songs and concert dates.

Brainclaw has just released its brand new re-imagining (cover, for the uninitiated) of Björk’s classic song, “Army of Me.”

You can download either a small file-size .mp3 version, or a full-resolution big file .aiff version or .wav version for the audiophiles out there.

(Please let there still be some audiophiles out there, who understand how bad mp3s sound compared to the original recordings!)

This release is available for free download on the Brainclaw MUSIC page.

Enjoy!

Here is the first really new Brainclaw offering since the Dead Monsters CD was released. Goth cabaret diva Nicki Jaine has provided a stellar vocal performance in a electro industrial reimagining of Gordon Lightfoot’s classic Seventies ballad, “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.”

Also appearing on the song is the wildly-talented Kyle Cassidy, with a blistering guitar execution that blends perfectly with Brainclaw’s signature electronics.

Nicki Jaine doesn’t only sing on this new track, she also played a rare instrument, the 28 inch Charlie Blacklock Special custom-made musical saw, which is featured in the choruses of the song.

You can hear an .mp3 of this new song right HERE, and you can download the full-quality 44/16 .aiff version HERE. Feel free to download and share to your heart’s content!

Many thanks to Nicki and Kyle for this fantastic collaborative effort.

The new Brainclaw song Deadlife was selected to appear on the new Dracula’s Ball CD sampler. They are kept company on this excellent compilation by many great artists, such as the Cruxshadows and Bow Ever Down.

This CD has been mass-produced and has been distributed free to every attendee of the latest Dracula’s Ball event hosted by none other than Philadelphia’s own Patrick Rodgers. The Ball is, without a doubt THE premiere gothic/industrial event in the country, if not the world. National Geographic was rumored to have been filming segments at this latest Drac’s Ball for a show examining the vampire subculture. 1000 or so CDs were also distributed at the most recent Convergence Gothic Music Festival in early May.

Thousands of new people will be exposed to the Brainclaw virus from Deadlife’s appearance this giveaway CD. Brainclaw wish to extend a special Thank-You to Patrick Rodgers for this fantastic opportunity to reach thousands of potential new fans.

The Virus continues to spread… The new Brainclaw CD seems to have oozed it’s way to Russia, where it is being sold to our comrades through the PURGA Network website.

Those of you who are fluent in Russian can head over to the PURGA Brainclaw page and check it out. As we say here in the Brainclaw Enclave, Всего хорошего!

The new Brainclaw CD is now available and being distributed by Metropolis Records. You can purchase the new Brainclaw CD right HERE from Metropolis Records Online.
