Waiting....On Ships Of Gold: An Introduction To The Black Heart Procession

formed in 1997 and coming out of beautiful sunny San Diego is The Black Heart Procession.....the core members are Pal jenkins and Tobias Nathaniel...both of which are core members of the band Three Mile Pilot....but over the years they picked up members form other Indie rock giants such as Modest Mouse, Hot Snakes, The Album Leaf and Rocket From The Crypt.....

if you had not guessed by the name of the band.....their music and their lyrics concentrate on the concepts of broken hearts, isolation and just complete despondency....but whats great about them is somehow there is a certain amount of lightness with in the music and even at times a a glimps of happiness within the lyrics.....their songs range from slow minimal soundscapes of the heart destroyed to damn near upbeat ballads of isolation....intermix this all with Pal jenkins very unique voice and vocal tendencies.....and you have some of the most wonderful melancholy music you will ever hear.....

my mix is fairly sporadic....really it's just placed in a way that i feel flows nicely....but does cover their entire discography....except for one single...whioch i only omitted due to the long legnth of the tracks....i listed the track names with the albums they are from in parentheses
