Grateful Web Likes Black Nile’s “Fresh” Sound

Grateful Web has coverage of “Skyrim,” a track from Black Nile’s new LP Indigo Garden that’s currently at radio via Mass MoCA Records. “Somewhere between Inglewood, improvisation, and the echo of a dragon’s roar,” the site writes, “Black Nile have found a fresh portal into their sound. The Los Angeles brothers Aaron and Lawrence Shaw return with ‘Skyrim,’ a striking new single inspired by the legendary video game universe, and it is anything but novelty. This is jazz with atmosphere, bite, and a cinematic sense of scale—music that feels as if it is wandering through ancient ruins with a horn section instead of a sword.”
