Mornin', Ming!
They've got virtually everything they've ever recorded up on WFMU's archive site: http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Big_Blood/ (legal & etc.)
If your belt's gettin' a little tight, I'd recommend buying one or two then grabbing some of the others off there if you've still got an itch for more (you will).
My ever-shifting ranking:
Space Gallery
BB & The Bleedin Hearts
Sew Your Wild Days Tour Vol. I (Vitamin C cover!)
Dark Country Magic
Cerberus Shoal - This Land We All Believe In
Alvarius B/Cerberus Shoal
The Grove
Sew Your Wild Days 2
Strange Maine 2007
Operators and Things
Already Gone 1+2
Strange Maine '06
I'll stop there...
Just heard their new one the other day, BB & The Wicked Hex (sounds like a Harry Potter rip-off). It's got some grinding hard rock riffs that I'm not sure go with their style, but they can do no wrong. Sure I'll warm to it soon.
I dunno if you've heard of Cerberus Shoal? They were a kinda post-rocky krautrocky outfit that eventually mutated into something like the Big Blood we know and love. BB are a bit like Circle in that they prob write several tracks a day and have to put together a dozen side-projects to play them all. Hey, what's that muse there for if not to milk the fucker dry?
None of those records are actually live, by the way. More anti-commercial shenanigans!
They released probably my favourite epic song of all time. It's in that Alvarius B (Sun City Girls/Sublime Frequencies founder) split and it's called Ding. It'll probably take half a year to upload (it's about 30 minutes long) but it's so gottdamned beautiful it'll be worth the effort.
For now, a morning mini-EP of sublime Big Blood tracks (you know, I don't think I'd ever heard the words Big and Blood in that combination before I discovered this band).
