HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! The Exquisite Death of Saxon Shore is characterized by Saxon Shore's lush, intense, melodic brand of instrumental rock. The full-length is a vibrant mix of electronics and acoustic instruments, from the white label 12" sounds of "Marked with Knowledge" to the metallic refrains of "Isolated by the Secret of Your Fellow Men " to the pop sensibilities and hooks of "With a Red Suit You Will Become a Man," all filtered through the expert and artful ears of engineer, producer, and mixer   [ read more ]

With the departure of Seattle drummer and cofounder Joshua Tillman, Saxon Shore has become more of a collaborative group than ever. Anchored by guitarist Matt Doty, a fluid roster of contributors helped create the latest EP, Luck Will Not Save Us From a Jackpot of Nothing. The album leans heavily toward synthesizers and programming, yet still retains the dark guitar-driven intensity of previous albums. As before, lyrics are absent and unnecessary to telegraph the band's themes of hope, beauty and des   [ read more ]

REISSUE. Saxon Shore formed in the winter of 2001 by Matthew Doty (guitar, piano) and Joshua Tillman (drums) in upstate New York. Be A Bright Blue's austere simplicity and minimal, melodic accessibility was a departure from the majority of instrumental acts by utilizing pop music conventions such as repetition, hooks, and western dynamics, while offering room for solidarity, free interpretations, and thematic independence. Be A Bright Blue was born out of late night inspiration, a lust for mel   [ read more ]

After a year of three regional and one national tour, featuring a revolving door of membership, Saxon Shore recorded Four Months of Darkness at home (upstate NY) and with Georgia's Jamie Bozeman. With original members Matthew Doty (guitar, piano) and Joshua Tillman (drums) living in upstate NY and Seattle, WA respectively, the songwriting process became an exchange of 4-track demos. After the release of this album the band set out for over one hundred and sixty shows in support. This record built on    [ read more ]
