BLACK LIGHT BURNS' WES BORLAND: New Video Message Available

February 5, 2008

Former LIMP BIZKIT guitarist Wes Borland has posted a video message containing more information about the upcoming "covers" album that is being recorded by his BLACK LIGHT BURNS project. According to Wes, the following songs are being tracked for the effort:

PJ HARVEY - "Rid of Me"
JESUS LIZARD - "The Art of Self Defense"
INXS - "Devil Inside"
LOVE AND ROCKETS - "So Alive"
SWANS - "I am the Sun"
FIONA APPLE - "On the Bound"
LARD - "Forkboy"
BIGDUMBFACE - "Bleed Red Head on Fire"

Borland previously stated about the CD, "[BLACK LIGHT BURNS] started recording a few covers at the end of 2007, and when we finished, we realized that it's super-fun and that we like a lot of songs, so we started to record more and then it hit us. Why not take seven or eight covers, and the two B-sides from 'Cruel Melody' [BLACK LIGHT BURNS' debut album], and a couple of remixes and put it out? No! Let's not just put that out. Let's take that, and pair it with a DVD of fourvideos from 'Cruel Melody' and an hour-plus tour documentary, live footage, a 'making-of' the 'Lie' video, and a bunch of pictures from tour and crap. So we thought about it. It seems like a good idea. We're into it. Do we plan on releasing it soon you ask? Is the atomic weight of cobalt 58.9?"

"Cruel Melody" was released in June 2007 via producer Ross Robinson's new label I Am: Wolfpack.
