COLD DREAMSOur new album Cold Dreams is out on KLaNGundKRaCH ! It is a CDR of home-improvised recordings and has two parts: first one is an eight-minute calm, jazzy collage, then - after two minutes of silence - the journey begins. The second part of the album is more than 30 minutes long and listening to it, you will definitely understand why Michal Brunclík chose this album name. The ice crackles, the wind brings weir echoes and sound hallucinations, the light is painfully sharp. The album is available either from us (drop us an e-mail) or from KLaNGundKRaCH. The party takes place tonight at Stimul where we are opening for Merzbow. |

| OOOPS! Long time no update besides the Live section here. Wow. So, folks: happy new year to you all and let's have some good news: First of all, a limted new BBNU album Cold Dreams will appear on KLaNGundKRaCH as a limited CDR. The album will consist of material improvised at our rehearsal space and hopefully will be out on 24th March when we share the bill with Merzbow at Stimul festival. The edition of this recording will not be more that 100 pieces. A Babí léto festival compilation (we played there last summer) will be released as a triple CDR set and - possibly - also as a limited double-LP on Polí pět. And finally, our song St. Wave will be released on a forthcoming Lumberton Trading Company compilation along with Peter Sleazy Christopherson, Steven Severin, Human Greed, Theme, Andrew Liles, Formication, Volga, Lawrence English, Sion Orgon and Zenial. The same label will later release a brand new BBNU album So As. Fingers crossed. And don't forget to check our live section and our space. |

| SOME ARTICLES added in PRESS section of this website. BBNU have started improvising (the last show in Parukářka) was nearly all-improvised and recording their achievments in this field. So far, we sound rougher and harder and have a lot of fun. Come share the fun at our live shows. The forthcoming album (on CD) has still not been finished, these days it is nothing but thought and argued about intensively... perhaps a single will appear earlier... yes, we will let you know. And how are you? |

| Hello everybody. Welcome to the bird-nest. Launching of this propaganda weapon saw us preparing our first album NIGHT NIGHT and re-working our sound & approach to turning objects. After a year of playing our first "real" program we felt it was time to get the construction shaken to see which parts of it prove its stability and to be able to tell the basis from ornaments and atmospheric clouds - both of which can always be nice little subjects to change. This year, after releasing NIGHT NIGHT 12-inch vinyl, we are going to work on new songs and recordings, perhaps also make some theatre music and flirt with the glamorous magic of moving pictures. And from October you can see us on stage again, for example on Prague Industrial Festival. We will keep you updated about all the things mentioned above and many many more birds' plays that are to come one day. Please, feel free to contact us, your feedback is important. |
