About this product
There is something about the bitter cold in Chicago that unites the city in January- the two weeks in 2024 that Horsegirl spent recording Phonetics On and On were some of the coldest days in Chicago that year. With the heating off in The Loft to avoid sound interference, the band was bundled in multiple sweaters and sitting on their hands between takes. Working closely with musician/producer Cate Le Bon (Deerhunter, Kurt Vile, Wilco) Horsegirl found focus and intimacy in the studio that can only arise when it's simply too cold to step outside. Abandoning the heavysaturation and character studies of Versions of Modern Performance, Le Bon leads them into new, bright, clear, sonic territories that highlight the inventive nature of these new songs.After playing together for four years, Horsegirl explores the limits of the trio configuration within Phonetics On and On- what if instead of filling out songs with distortion, they utilized the expanse that the three of them didn't occupy? This question seems to be the motivating force behind the record, and the songs are a testament to experimenting with space and texture while maintaining a pop song at the core. New tools help bring this world to life; violins, synths, and gamelan tiles are all woven into the record with complete effect.

Vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. 2022 . Horsegirl are best friends. You don't have to talk to the trio for more than five minutes to feel the warmth and strength of their bond, which crackles through every second of their debut full-length, Versions of Modern Performance, out June 3rd. Penelope Lowenstein (guitar, vocals), Nora Cheng (guitar, vocals), and Gigi Reece (drums) do everything collectively, from songwriting to trading vocal duties and swapping instruments to sound and visual art design. 'We made [this album] knowing so fully what we were trying to do,' the band says. 'We would never pursue something if one person wasn't feeling good about it. But also, if someone thought something was good, chances are we all thought it was good.

BR's third album that was hailed as InchBest Album Of The YearInch by punk bibles Flipside and Maximum Rock 'n Roll. Bad Religion's 1987 , is one of their finest. The band (which saw the original line-up reunite for the album's ) was improving and becoming more and more focused with each successive , and SUFFER showed the band as one of the world's top thought-provoking punk outfits. Although many similar-sounding bands have taken Bad Religion's patented sound further chartwise, few have been able to truly top such Bad Religion classics as InchYou Are (the Government),Inch the title track, InchDo What You Want,Inch and InchWhat Can You Do?Inch
