Hippo Campus - Flood - VINYL LP

Hippo Campus' singer Jake Luppen had been listening to the band's work as they rolled around the country, trying to tease out how much work remained. All of it, he soon decided. Obfuscated by the need to sound sophisticated and the overwhelming ambition to make the best Hippo Campus LP ever, a deeper and more profound record that reflected how their lives were changing.

They wiped the slate clean, starting over without beliefs about what Hippo Campus or this record needed to be. Still, sophistication lurks in subtle key and tempo changes, in the almost innate shifts that a band of longtime best friends can tap after so much time spent helping to shape one another's musical language.

This rebirth is accompanied by a crucial career shift for Hippo Campus, too, as they exit the traditional tag system to issue LP4 via Psychic Hotline, a truly independent imprint run by peers and pals.
