Two Gallants – The Bloom and The Blight (CD)
Product Details
Adam Stephens and Tyson Vogel have been a two-man wrecking crew since their San Francisco teenage years, building a devoted following through relentless touring and the kind of raw, physical performances that made believers out of anyone who caught them on a good night. The Bloom and the Blight, released in 2012, arrived after years of road-hardened growth and proved the duo had no interest in standing still.
The Bloom and the Blight is the work of a band that has matured and redefined itself, and the album is imbued with a palpable sense of personal catharsis. It moves away from Two Gallants' more folk and blues-based past, representing the duo's ferocious live show and their past steeped in punk and grunge. The songs have a dark side and a dynamic sonic heft, yet a sense of salvation and resolve courses throughout: an urgent, emotional poignancy stemming in part from Stephens' recovery from a serious van accident in 2010.
