My Best Fiend

Brooklyn's epic psychedelic rockers My Best Fiend formed in 2004, when vocalists/multi-instrumentalists Fred Coldwell, Kris Lindblade, and Gary Tedder and drummer Joe Noll began playing and recording demos together. Forging an expansive sound that evoked <a href="spotify:artist:6DKmuXxXASTF6xaJwcTfjv">Spiritualized</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:1uQWmt1OhuHGRKmZ2ZcL6p">Explosions in the Sky</a> as well as more down-to-earth artists like <a href="spotify:artist:2UZMlIwnkgAEDBsw1Rejkn">Tom Petty</a>, the group issued the Acid Happy/Mary's Fits single on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Gigantic+Music%22">Gigantic Music</a> in 2007. After spending several years playing live, woodshedding, and adding Damian Genuardi to the fold, My Best Fiend self-released the Jesus Christ EP early in 2011 via their Bandcamp page. The group recorded its debut album with producer Matt Boynton and worked with collaborators including <a href="spotify:artist:1doYxKMh5Eg26rzpEIQdjd">Shannon Funchess</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:2SaeQ2U38Tpy4GNC6YcLXh">Anni Rossi</a>. Late in 2011, <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Warp+Records%22">Warp Records</a> announced they had signed My Best Fiend, and In Ghostlike Fading arrived early in 2012. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
