Candi Staton - I'm Just A Prisoner - VINYL LP

Entirely written, produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by the duo of Mica Tenenbaum and Matt Lewin, Mercurial World proposes an abstract theory of time and explores the staggering Inchwhat ifsInch that make up the human experience. Approaching reality as a construct allows Magdalena Bay to enact their own, one that is committed to nothing but expanding the possible. Even the album's sequencing hints at the eternal the first track is titled InchThe End,Inch the last is InchThe Beginning,Inch forming a perfect loop when you listen to it straight through. InchMatt, Matt, wake up!Inch Tenenbaum whispers on the introductory track. InchI was thinking about how there's no true end to anything/ Everything comes from and goes to the same place Nowhere.Inch InchMercurial World has a lot of outsized themes on it, like destiny, death, and doing the impossible,Inch Tenenbaum explains.

Around the Fur the follow-up to Deftones' passionate, aggressive Adrenaline, sees the California quartet expanding on the sheer rage of their earlier work, adding new, more sinister shades to their already extreme sound. The opening InchMy Own Summer (Shove It),Inch serves as an introduction to the album's sonic theme sinewy guitars and eerie whispers alternate with fast, violent crunch. Sepultura's Max Cavallero contributes guitar and vocals to InchHeadup,Inch while InchMXInch finds singer Chino trading off vocal lines with Annalynn Cunningham, (wife of Deftones' drummer Abe) in an acerbic take on the rock star mentality. Vocal acrobat Moreno attacks a variety of styles his breathy, psychotic recitations sound downright industrial, while the album's calmer, more brooding moments show his gift for haunting melody. Behind him, guitarist Stephen Carpenter's heavy wall of sound is astoundingly muscular, yet inspiringly agile. When Deftones' hellish fury hits full tilt, as it always does on this album, Moreno's voice erupts into screams which are best described as otherworldly, transforming this intense musical firestorm into a hurtling juggernaut of aggression. This LP version comes pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Album Tracks 1. My Own Summer (Shove It) 2. Lhabia 3. Mascara 4. Around the Fur 5. Rickets 6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) 7. Lotion 8.
