Dubbed by LosingToday.com as “thinking man’s indie-rock,” Washington, DC-based Bellflur has sustained itself since its inception in 2001 through multiple members, two releases (including 2006’s self-released EP “Read.Walk.Take.Talk.,” a nomination for a Washington Area Music Association Award for Best Modern Rock Recording in 2006), and ever-present reincarnations of musical taste. While scores of DC-based bands touted to be “the next big thing” have rapidly sprung up on the horizon — and just as quickly dissipated — Bellflur has been one of the few constants from the DC-front yet to dry-up, and has proven that longevity and risk-taking, with an employed DIY-ethic, can indeed result in “musical freedom.”

A band which has drawn a litany of comparisons and classification throughout these reincarnations – from Can and Radiohead, to Lake Trout and Tortoise, God Speed and Sigur Ros – no single review or opinion seems to give any indication of a definable or traceable line of Bellflur’s genre-specificity. However, Bellflur manages to rest seamlessly in lush space and musical grandeur just as easily as odd-time signatures and bare-boned harmonies and reticence.

Bellflur is currently working on its third release and second full-length album, “asleep.asleep.” (Bastille Recordings).
