Super! presents feeble little horse on November 17, 2026 at La Bellevilloise
The band feeble little horse is thrilled to present their third album, bitknot. Written, arranged, produced, and recorded by Sebastian Kinsler, Lydia Slocum, and Jake Kelley from their respective homes in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, this album is a passionate exploration of the artificial space created between human nature and a culture of comfort. A synthesis of the physical and the digital, feeble little horse's bitknot invents a language for reconnecting with interdependence, far removed from consumerist "self-sufficiency" and materialism. "The album cover is inspired by the magnetic core memory matrix used in early computers to store and access information via 0s and 1s. Each core, or 'bit', is accessible via a grid of wires, like a knot holding secrets and memories." bitknot invites us to explore new ways of being through this network, entrusting us with the collaborative construction of these knots.
This negotiation with a constantly shifting hybrid reality is masterfully captured in the album's production: the buoyancy of Kinsler's arrangements provides a perfectly balanced surface tension to the depth of Slocum's meandering introspection. Their playful harmonies weave through syrupy melodies, walls of sound, a profusion of synthesizers and samples worthy of a revved-up car battery, all immersed in the ocean of their guitar-driven structure and precision drumming courtesy of Kelley. The result is a sonic chimera just as likely to have emerged from the dawn of the early 2000s as from an unknown chromatic future.
