Biography

Sacramento-based quintet Doombird creates a hybrid of live instrumentation and electronic sounds, as evident on Past Lives (2016). With their newest EP, Twin Prime (2018), Doombird continues to explore the tension between the analog and the digital. Twin Prime engages with another set of competing currents: propulsive beats and layers of atmosphere. It is the sort of album that is clean, thoughtful, and carefully cultivated. There’s a lot going on in these five tracks but nothing seems amiss or out of place. Each sonic element is precisely offered. There is a variety of connotations for listeners to enjoy. There are hints of Tim Hecker, Grizzly Bear, Caribou, Oneohtrix Point Never, Rival Consoles, and Dauwd. Twin Prime was recorded at Fun Castle, Zach Brown’s (Tycho) home studio. (Brown also plays guitar on the first track.) The EP was engineered and mixed by Bob Cheek (Band of Horses, Tera Melos, Chelsea Wolfe, Deftones, Two Sheds), and mastered by Eric Broyhill (!!!, Chon).
