Re-Visit:
Friend & Foe, the third album from Portland, based indie group Menomena, released by Barsuk Records in 2007.
Album Highlights:
Menomena initially formed in 2000 as the side project to drummer Danny Seim’s solo project Lackthereof. In the two years since the release of Friend & Foe, Seim has once again been concentrating on Lackthereof and released Your Anchor in 2008, his second official album under the Lackthereof moniker.
Brent Knopf the primary guitarist for Menomena, has recently joined Seim’s in the solo world,releasing the album Intuit under the name, Ramona Falls.
The experimental goodness of Seim’s and Knopf’s solo material has increased anticipation for Menomena’s fourth album which has been confirmed for release in 2010-just in time to celebrate the band’s ten year anniversary. Although currently untitled the band previewed new album track, Queen Black Acid at this year’s All Tomorrow’s Parties Festivaln New York.
