Experimental rockers Bright, formerly of Massachusetts and now residing in Brooklyn, return after a six-year hiatus with the full length Bells Break Their Towers on Strange Attractors. The CD proves well worth the wait, as guitarist/vocalist Mark Dwinell, multi-instrumentalist Joe Labrecque, and a host of other collaborators fashion compelling extended drone-based compositions. Some pieces, such as "An Ear Out" and "It's What I Need" are decidedly minimalist in approach. "Secret Form in Time" is another process-oriented piece, layering swaths of piano ostinati and warm synths. Two compositions featuring vocals, "Receiver" and the shimmering "Manifest Harmony," have a more psych-rock ambience. The title track combines extended drones with rock solos and a looping chorus of Dwinell's overdubbed singing. It depicts Bright at its best, exploring repeating cycles of material without ever becoming merely repetitive, creating rock that's both adventurous and energetic. - Christian Carey (2006, The Daily Copper)
