Shadow In The Cracks Shadow In The Cracks LP Vinyl

Vinyl LP pressing. 2015 release by this musical side-project from brothers Jim and Mike Blaha, who constitute 66.6% of The Blind Shake. Shadows in the Cracks "refers to the darker part of the dark," explains Jim. "We decided to create a new band after the first song was written. It felt much different to us that it sort of got us scheming and we created an entire back-story / idea for the band; then started writing the songs within that limitation. Having only a kick drum and Indian bells changed the way we played our guitars. It could have been a new direction for the Blind Shake for sure, but it was really fun to enjoy the new limitations without having the temptation to go back to what was more familiar. The first song was written when the drums were not fully set up at our practice space. Mike sat behind the kick drum and started playing. I responded to what he was doing and it came out way different than it usually does. It really moved us in a new way."
