Cul de Sac has been involved in film music for some time now, and the latest addition the the many films we have worked with or contributed music too is a film called "B.I.K.E." that is currently making the festival circuit. The band's music is featured in the opening credits and first scene of the film. Here is some information about it:

B.I.K.E. An Ego Doc by Anthony Howard and Jacob Septimus
Two filmmakers infiltrate an underground bicycle club.

Check out B.I.K.E.'s official website at: www.bike-films.com
to see how you can support cyclists' legal defense.

Driven by anti-materialism and a belief that the impending apocalypse will render cars useless and leave bicycles in power, Black Label Bike Club (BLBC) battles mainstream consumer culture and rival gangs for its vision of a better tomorrow. Pulling threads from Critical Mass and the wider bike counterculture, B.I.K.E. explores such themes as radical politics, personal artistic vision, global responsibility, relationships, group formation, and perhaps most prominently, pain and love.

"Arrestingly filmed, daringly cut and vividly revealed"
**** (4 stars) - Roger Moore Sentinel Movie Critic

"Destined to be a cult classic"
- David Hirschman, Soma Magazine

Co-directors, Jacob Septimus and Anthony Howard follow the Brooklyn chapter of BLBC for over two years to meetings, parties, jousts, gatherings of the tribes in Amsterdam and Minneapolis, and the protests of the 2004 Republican National Convention to create their masterpiece. Edited from over 385 hours of footage for over 2 years Fountainhead Films presents B.I.K.E., a riveting look into the ways in which identity is important for a collective of fiercely independent people.

B.I.K.E. has aligned itself with environmentally responsible organizations that promote green, recycle bikes, and provide legal defense for cyclists. Our mission is to support the rights of bicyclists and promote the practice of cycling to inculcate a culture that will make lasting impacts on the environment and a way of living. We want the B.I.K.E message to resonate and to help people see the importance in building a self-sustaining world.

1991 - "The Year Punk Broke". The smell of teen spirit was emanating out of the Pacific Northwest, from coast-to-coast the youth were proudly flyin' the flannel, and the term "alternative" had firmly taken root in the rock critic lexicon. In Boston, however, guitarist Glenn Jones had a radically different agenda brewing, totally at odds to the current climate. Cul de Sac was born in 1990 as the result of Jones' loosely-formed concept pitting melodic, surf/Middle Eastern guitar style with the electronics splatter of Robin Amos (founding member of Boston dada-punk legends The Girls) and the percussive grooves of Chris Guttmacher (ex-drummer for Bullet LaVolta). Drawing further inspiration from '60s psychedelia, American and Middle Eastern folk music, Krautrock, and the more industrial elements of the avant-garde, Cul de Sac developed and honed this formula as an instrumental quartet, and as it stands today, the band has long-since cemented their status as one of the leading lights of the avant rock underground. But it was the out-of-left-field splash they made in 1991 with their debut ECIM that started the whole undercurrent and subsequent rubbernecking their way, a debut recording that effectively ushered in a remarkably fresh perspective on instrumental rock music. Clearly there was nothing like it at the time. Today, ECIM almost seems prophetic; its fully realized sound is certainly more in step with recent underground activity than it ever was previously.

Originally issued by Northeastern in the US and Rough Trade in Europe, ECIM happens to be the one album in Cul de Sac's discography criminally unavailable for many years, having gone out of print sometime in the 90's. A crucial chapter in the development and actualization of the American avant rock underground, ECIM is proudly resuscitated 15 years hence. Boasting an impeccable digital remastering job, the reissue is beefed up with three previously unreleased tunes recorded from the period and rounded out with archival photos and liner notes by Byron Coley, Chris Guttmacher and Glenn Jones. Features the Cul de Sac live staples "Death Kit Train" and "Nico's Dream", plus their original take on the John Fahey classic "The Portland Cement Factory at Monolith, California" and guest appearances by the inimitable Dredd Foole. For the well-versed Cul de Sac fan and for new admirers alike, ECIM is a time-tested album well ahead of the curve. A modern classic, and a cornerstone of recent musical history.

We are very excited to welcome Gavin to the (recovering disfunctional) Cul de Sac family, not only because he is an amazing musician, but a hell of a swell guy as well! Fans who catch our fall performances will have a special treat in store for them when they witness his brilliance. In our first rehearsal with him, alone, he was brilliant. We can only imagine the possibilities when we begin to write new music with him! Anyway, you can read more about gavin at his website: http://www.gavinmccarthy.com
