Purple Mountains
Purple Mountains was an American indie rock project formed by musician and poet David Berman. The project debuted in May 2019, over a decade after the dissolution of Berman's previous group Silver Jews. An eponymous album was released in July 2019. The album was recorded primarily in Chicago and produced by Jarvis Taveniere and Jeremy Earl of the band Woods. The project's name is a mondegreen of the lyric "Purple mountain majesties" from "America the Beautiful". ''Nashville Scene'''s Sean L. Maloney described it as "striking, heavy and maybe a little foreboding, yet it implies a majesty that is completely missing from the often-self-deprecating Silver Jews". The project was presumably dissolved upon Berman's death on August 7, 2019. Background Berman returned to music in 2018, co-producing Yonatan Gat's second studio album ''Universalists''. On December 12, 2018, former Pavement and Silver Jews member Bob Nastanovich revealed on his podcast ''Three Songs'' that David Berma ...

Yonatan Gat
Yonatan Gat is an Israeli producer, guitarist, and composer based in New York City. His cross-genre work has been called "a vital new music form" by a "legendary live performer" by ''Magnet'' magazine, "melding punk, improvisation, world music, and avant garde". His performances were so controversial in his home country of Israel that his first band, Monotonix, got banned from playing shows in almost all venues of the country, leading Gat to leave Israel for a decade of touring, during which he gave 1,500 concerts in thirty countries. ''Rolling Stone'' editor David Fricke celebrated the multiculturalism of Gat's sound, calling him "a citizen of the world", adding that "Gat wields his guitar like a universal translator". After variously relocating to Paris, Porto, and New Orleans, Gat found a home in New York, where his work has been profiled by ''The New York Times'', ''Rolling Stone'', ''The Wire'', ''UNCUT'', ''Pitchfork'', NPR, ''Vice'', ''The New Yorker'', and ''People''. ...

Suicide
Suicide is the act of intentionally causing one's own death. Mental disorders (including depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, personality disorders, anxiety disorders), physical disorders (such as chronic fatigue syndrome), and substance abuse (including alcoholism and the use of and withdrawal from benzodiazepines) are risk factors. Some suicides are impulsive acts due to stress (such as from financial or academic difficulties), relationship problems (such as breakups or divorces), or harassment and bullying. Those who have previously attempted suicide are at a higher risk for future attempts. Effective suicide prevention efforts include limiting access to methods of suicide such as firearms, drugs, and poisons; treating mental disorders and substance abuse; careful media reporting about suicide; and improving economic conditions. Although crisis hotlines are common resources, their effectiveness has not been well studied. The most commonly adopted metho ...

Pavement (band)
Pavement is an American indie rock band that formed in Stockton, California, in 1989. For most of their career, the group consisted of Stephen Malkmus (vocals and guitar), Scott Kannberg (guitar and vocals), Mark Ibold (bass), Steve West (drums) and Bob Nastanovich (percussion and vocals). Initially conceived as a recording project, the band at first avoided press or live performances, while attracting considerable underground attention with their early releases. Gradually evolving into a more polished band, Pavement recorded five full-length albums and ten EPs over the course of their decade-long career, though they disbanded with some acrimony in 1999 as the members moved on to other projects. In 2010, they undertook a well-received reunion tour, with another international tour currently ongoing in 2022 and 2023. Though only briefly attracting mainstream attention with the single "Cut Your Hair" in 1994, Pavement was a successful indie rock band. Rather than signing with a ma ...

Universalists (album)
''Universalists'' is the second full-length studio album by Yonatan Gat released in 2018 on Joyful Noise Recordings. Gal Lazer plays drums, and Sergio Sayeg is on bass. The album was produced by David Berman of the Silver Jews and by Gat himself. Other personnel involved with the album's production included Kevin McMahon, Calvin Johnson ( Beat Happening), Thor Harris (Swans) and many others. Several of the tracks sample Alan Lomax's European field recording from the 1950s. The album is noted for its advanced editing techniques and global musical perspective, with Spin describing it as: "''an ambitious, sprawling record, a catalog of fever dreams, where styles and sounds dovetail in transparent sheafs of blotter paper...''." The album takes its cues from the editing techniques of Teo Macero (Miles Davis' producer). Kanye West's style of editing and sampling on ''Yeezus'' and the '' Life of Pablo'' were also particularly influential to Gat's approach on ''Universalists.'' Th ...
