Iguana Death Cult - Echo Palace - VINYL LP

After the pandemic hit, and the people of the world grew wary and suspicious of one another, Iguana Death Cult, one of Europe's most exciting rock exports, became more than just a band to it's members-it became therapy. InchI think for the first ten times we went to jam,Inch says guitarist/vocalist Tobias Opschoor, speaking about the making of the new album Echo Palace, Inchwe just drank wine and talked about it for hours-and then were like, 'OK, I have to go because I have to work tomorrow.'Inch Taking place at frontman Jeroen Reek's apartment in Rotterdam, these gatherings slowly shifted from talking about this surreal chapter of their lives-the days of quiet streets and cramped buildings-to making music about it. Armed with the talents of Justin Boer on bass and Arjen van Opstal on drums, and tapping the keys work Jimmy de Kok for the first time on album, the band took their trademark melodic garage-rock style and expanded it to make it vibier and looser, with each member contributing ideas to develop the sound palette in full. When it came time to record the album, the band headed to PAF Studio in Rotterdam, and subsequently it was mixed by Joo-Joo Ashworth (Sasami, Dummy) at Studio 22 in Los Angeles and mastered by Dave Cooley (Tame Impala, Yves Tumor). The album is a big swing, stretching Iguana Death Cult beyond it's garage rock origins and taking them to a new realm. The end result of Echo Palace is an appropriately worldly album from a group breaking past the confines of it's home country.
