Joel Corry - Another Friday Night - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Double vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Legendary power thrashers Sacred Oath have delivered their best album to date with 10 hook-laden, thunderous, melodic masterpieces. With an obvious nod to their '80s roots, Rob Thorne and his crew easily straddle past and future with a modern sound and classic style. Melodic vocals, shred guitar, and crushing drums are the signatures of this package that also features 11 original art pieces and lyrics.

With influences ranging from a lifelong love of pop melodies & '80s New Wave through J. Dilla to the Mahavishnu Orchestra, LA based producer & multi-instrumentalist Lost Midas treads an aesthetic turf somewhere between Neon Indian & Bibio; irresistible and enduring ditties peeped through a shifting shroud of striking textures and idiosyncratic beats. Lost Midas is the alter ego of Boston born Jason Trikakis, who first established himself as a hip hop drummer in his teens and into his '20s. As the anchor of popular hip hop & funk seven piece the Press Project, in New Hampshire, Trikakis had his first taste of full scale touring, including support for the Roots and backing for Slick Rick. A stint in indie rock band the Honors in the mid 2000s, along with various session work including for Nigerian vocalist Lyeoka, also widened his horizons. Mastering a range of instruments along the way (including his current favorite, the keys), he gradually developed an obsession with composition and the endless possibilities within the realm of electronic production.
