No Certain Night Or Morning
It is five in the morning and still dark outside.  Your eyes  flutter and open heavily.  You see a disembodied blue glow pulsating on the  ceiling. You have no idea where you are, but you know you are alone.  The  only sound you hear is the hiss of a nearby radiator, but in the movie  version of your life this moment would be punctuated by the music of Home  Video.The first Home Video song came to them in the dead of winter, the  blizzard of 2003.  As the piling snow erased the landscape outside his  window, David huddled over the warm vibrations of an analog synthesizer  creating the simple loop that first inspired their minimalist sound.  The  fear and anxiety of New York's atmosphere at the time had eaten its way  onto the pages of Collin's tattered notebooks and became their confessional  style of lyrics.  Underlined by a thumping, bass-rich beat, the pairing of  the two worked well and the song evolved into "Melon," the first Home Video  song created and the closing track on the album.  Inspired by their new  philosophy, other songs quickly followed and the band sent out demos.Originally discovered by Warp Records, the label released Home Video's  first two EPs in 2004, both packaged in sleeves illustrated by Collin's  dark, Gorey-esque drawings.  That You Might, a 10" single, immediately  picked up considerable attention in Britain from BBC Radio 1 and the NME,  while the five song Citizen EP earned the band a feature in Rolling Stone.As electronic-rock producers and performers, they record everything  themselves, then adapt it live into a full on rock show with live drums and  hypnotic visual projections. After sharing a bill in London at the start of  Home Video's 2004 European tour, Blonde Redhead were so impressed that they  invited the band to support them for three weeks of shows in North America.   They have also opened for such diverse acts as Pinback, Colder, Radio 4,  and His Name is Alive.Surrounded by the trend-infested-quick-high of the New York music scene,  Home Video are slow-burning pop that will invade your dreams and memories.  The full-length debut album, No Certain Night or Morning, is released  October 3rd, 2006 on Defend Music.
