"Foundlings" – a 7-track collection that digs deep into the band's archives, spanning over two decades of sessions, tributes and unreleased gems.Known for their hypnotic blend of heavy riffage, dreamy atmospherics, and mesmerising grooves,Dead Meadowhave been delivering their organic, masterful and utterly transportive sonic recipe for nearly thirty years now.TheFoundlingsrarities collection promises to illuminate the band's evolution, featuring previously unheard material that showcases their unique ability to channel classic influences —from Sabbath-inspired heaviness to shimmering Cure-like textures — through their own hazy lens, while also serving as a tribute to bassist and founding member Steve Kille, who passed away two years ago after a long battle against cancer.Featuring the core lineup of guitarist and vocalist Jason Simon and late bassist Steve Kille, with drum duties split between Mark Laughlin and Stephen McCarty,Foundlingscompiles material recorded between 2002 and 2024. Highlights include a rendition of Powell St. John's "Kingdom of Heaven" (from theSonicCathedralsessions), a take on The Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows" (fromThe Nothing They Needsessions), and a version of Led Zeppelin's "No Quarter" originally cut for a Cleopatra Records tribute, alongside originals drawn from theVoyager to Voyageralbum recording sessions, a EarthQuaker Devices session, and aCommittee to Keep Music Evilsession recorded with Anton Newcombe and Rob Campanella (The Brian Jonestown Massacre).Foundlingsis poised to be essential listening for both long-time devotees and new converts. It arrives as the band continues to cement a legacy defined by fearless exploration.
