SUMMARY:White Denim w. Arc Iris
DESCRIPTION:Ive always wanted to make work thats a reflection of my life ex
 perience\, says singer-guitarist James Petralli\, leader of venturous L.A.
 -based rockers White Denim. The just-below-the-surface significance to 13 
 as an album title is that I was born on the thirteenth of August. 13 in nu
 merology can signify independence\, creativity\, and a solid foundation\, 
 but inversely is often considered to be unlucky and can signify chaos and 
 misfortune. Like everyone\, I can certainly see both sides in my life.13 a
 lso happens to be the thirteenth album of White Denims career. An incandes
 cent\, groove-heavy alchemy of rock\, funk\, dub\, soul and down-dirty blu
 es and plenty more besides its imbued with the same questing spirit thats 
 been the bands trademark since first starting in Austin\, Texas\, some 20 
 years ago.Petrallis wide-ranging musical appetites have become more voraci
 ous over time. The sounds and textures of 13 are informed by everyone from
  Scritti Politti to The Gap Band\, Terry Reid to King Tubby\, Caetano Velo
 so to John Cale\, Stevie Wonder to 80s-era Steve Winwood. Such diversity i
 s reflected in multi-faceted gems like (God Created) Lock And Key\, Only A
  Fool and Thats Rap.The seed of the project is rooted in the irresistible 
 Chew Nails. Its a straightforward glam-rock tune\, says Petralli. My take 
 on the New York Groove\, which is itself a take on the Bo Diddley beat. It
  has a big ol guitar riff and a singalong chorus. Its familiar territory f
 or me\, yet the vocal is perhaps more forward than most things Ive done fo
 r the band. Its the song that made me feel like I was definitely making a 
 White Denim album.The duality of 13 is immediately apparent. The pungent f
 unk-blues of opener (God Created) Lock And Key begins with a piece of wagg
 ish self-mythology On the thirteenth day God created White Denim but soon 
 goes somewhere darker. This is a Beefheart / Sun Ra sort of thing\, Petral
 li explains. I hope that its a somewhat terrifying\, startling\, and visce
 ral piece for everyone that hears it. Everything I say in that song is the
  truth. Its about power\, generational cycles of abuse\, shame\, violence\
 , and survival. The things that we all understand and know and see and pus
 h down to get through the day.
