Formats
  • SBR011 - LP
Details

Ltd 250 transparent blue vinyl with red, green and yellow splatters. The 12 track album which will be released on July 14th is named 'Alta Loma' after a hotel in John Fante's book 'Ask The Dust'. The album takes on a much heavier 70's psych sound compared to previous works. Garage rock influences are still widely felt throughout the songs but the band have moved to a much more progressive sound playing with extended drum solos mixed with theremin and vocals put through wen copycats and a huge in studio plate reverb. The whole album was recorded live in 2 days and mixed in one day at Toy Box Studios by Ali Chant. Everything was recorded and mixed using the analogue equipment and mastered using reel to reel. The single 'She Moans' will see a video release in mid to late July (being made by Kirill Smolyakov) and the band hope to begin playing heavily again in August through to Christmas to support the release.
