About this product

Remember The Humans is their first new studio album in almost a decade and reunites the Toronto collective with producer David Newfeld, who was already responsible for their breakthrough InchYou Forgot It in PeopleInch (2002) and the self-titled album from 2005. The arrangements on the 12 tracks are dense and enveloping - a mesh of horns, guitars, voices and electronics - but the melody always remains confident and does not allow itself to be swallowed up by the sheer sound. When the music drifts towards abstraction, a grounding bass line comes in to anchor the listener, always reminding us that human hands are at the controls and that, artful as it may be, this is still rock'n'roll. As always, Broken Social Scene operates less as a band than a community, and the songs evolve by ceding control to whoever can best drive them forward at the time. Drew may be the designated driver, but the contributors on Remember the Humans, including Hannah Georgas, Lisa Lobsinger and Feist, come to the fore again and again over the course of the album, shaping the songs with a sense of collective authorship that has always defined the group's ethos. In a culture characterized by abstraction and distance, Broken Social Scene have created an album that insists on the analog fact of human presence. It gently but insistently asks us to remember each other, to remember the human. Broken Social Scene have announced the of their new album InchRemember the HumansInch via City Slang / Arts & Crafts. With contributions from Feist, Lisa Lobsinger, Hannah Georgas and others.

Broken Social Scene - Hug Of Thunder   - VINYL LP

Double vinyl LP pressing. 2017 . Hug Of Thunder marks the fifth studio album from Canadian alt-rock supergroup Broken Social Scene, their first in seven years. Hug Of Thunder was produced by Joe Chiccarelli (White Stripes, Spoon, The Strokes) with Nyles Spencer, and mixed by Shawn Everett (Alabama Shakes, Weezer). Founded in '99 by Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning, the album features 17 players and 15 original members including Emily Haines and Jimmy Shaw of Metric, Amy Millan and Evan Cranley of Stars, Charles Spearin and Ohad Benchetrit of Do Make Say Think, and Grammy-nominated Leslie Feist. Hug Of Thunder is everything BSS fans love from the Canadian collective and then some, an album overflowing with glorious open chords, multi-voice harmonies, spacious psychedelia-tinted breakdowns, and more. It is a panoramic, expansive album that manages to be both epic and intimate; and like all things BSS, in troubled times, it offers a serotonin rush of positivity. Since their inception in the early Aughts, BSS have always pushed sonic boundaries while remaining reverent of a perfect chorus; almost twenty years down the line, Hug Of Thunder sharpens that balance and then some. The record's twelve songs refract the band's varying emotions, methods, and techniques in ways that not only reference their other albums, but surpass them. Hug Of Thunder is righteous but warm, angry but loving, melodic but uncompromising. And if you've ever fallen in love with Broken Social Scene - as many of us have - it is a perfect return that was truly worth the wait.
