"Your New Boundaries" is the brooding debut from Cambridge, MA-based Clairvoyants, a seasoned five piece group assembled around singer/songwriter Brian Dunn. From its opening line,"That city fucked you up.." there is an undeniably compelling emotive power, understating the dark, complex shades of narrative that follow. The overall sound is somber and lulling, pensively emotional. It is as haunting as it is haunted. The songs hold slowed, echoing memory, distorted by reflection that makes the bitter appear lovely. In them, the communication of loss is given a pure form, while longing, injury and the threats of aloneness are voiced. "Your New Boundaries is a world unto itself..... It is an amazing and important album, and marks the arrival of a true and unique talent." - Jesse Perkins "Your New Boundaries" was produced by Colin Rhinesmith and Brian Dunn at their studio, The Longhouse. Colin engineered and played keyboard instruments. Joe McMahon played double bass. Steve Scully played drums. Barry Reise (who has played with the likes of Lionel Hampton and Joe Lovano in the course of his long career) guests on trumpet and flugelhorn. Clairvoyants have played with Arab Strap, Thalia Zedek (Come), Songs:Ohia, Damon and Naomi, Shannon Wright, Wheat, Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters), and Azure Ray, among others. They will tour nationally following the release. Clairvoyants will be featured on Amos House 2- a collection of exclusive songs by Bright Eyes, Isobel Campbel (Belle and Sebastian), Elliot Smith and others- to be released this winter.
