About this product
If you could go back in time ten years, what would you want to tell yourself? This was a question Khruangbin posed to themselves when approaching the ten-year anniversary of their debut album, the once cult classic, now genre-defining work The Universe Smiles Upon You. InchIf we could go back and tell ourselves how much was going to happen to us after that record, what would we want to celebrate?Inch asked Laura Lee, bassist, vocalist, and founding member of the band. Instead, they thought InchLet's do it again.Inch The Universe Smiles Upon You ii was recorded on January 4-6, 2025, in the same family barn of guitarist Mark Speer, across the same dates where TUSUY was first conceived ten years earlier. Though the conditions were the same-dirt floor, brutally cold, minimal sound isolation, all takes live-the songs aren't. They're re-approached, some changed more than others, harnessing the lightning-in-a-bottle energy of TUSUY while discovering what would be unique this time around, in this stage of the band's life. The result moves like ripples on the water across ten hypnotizing tracks, the barn creating a sense of spaciousness, serenity and creative freedom, nearby wildlife (listen out for the birds on InchAugust Twelve iiInch), rattles and creaks of the barn and all. It's a tapestry of small movements in nuanced arrangements, slowly revealing the new life, stories and character of someoneyou've met again for the first time in ten years.

Limited white colored vinyl LP pressing. Los Angeles Black Sabbitch - the all-female powerhouse hailed as the most popular Black Sabbath tribute band in the world - has officially signed with heavyweight tag Ripple Music. The band is set to their highly anticipated live album InchUnrest in the WestInch later this year to a global audience. About the upcoming , drummer Angie Scarpa comments InchEvery night on tour, we make time to visit with fans, and the number one question we're asked is 'When will you make a live album we can buy'? So when Ripple Music came calling the only dilemma we faced was what to include. 13 years in, we have a huge catalog of material we play (enough for 8 records). We wanted to make a fun, hard-hitting record that felt like our live shows and not lean on the same old setlist you might hear from countless others. We hope you enjoy the selectionsInch.

Two of the acts boldly leading Texas music into the future have now delivered a second chapter of their groundbreaking collaboration, further extending the region's sonic possibilities. Singer/songwriter Leon Bridges, from Ft. Worth, and trailblazing Houston trio Khruangbin have joined forces for the Texas Moon EP, a follow-up to 2020's acclaimed Texas Sun project. While the five new songs are clearly a continuation of the first EP, they also have an identity all their own-Bridges calls it Inchmore introspective,Inch while Khruangbin bassist Laura Lee says it Inchfeels more night time.Inch When Texas Sun was released, AllMusic called the results InchintoxicatingInch and Paste noted that Inchtheir talents and character go together so well.Inch Now comes the next stage-a set of songs that touch on themes like love, faith, and death while exploring new dimensions of inventive, hypnotic grooves. Significantly, both parties' musical directions were clearly affected by their time working together. Khruangbin's most recent album, Mordechai, moved their own vocals much further forward, a change they readily admit was a direct result of working with Bridges. Meanwhile, since these recordings began, in addition to his genre-defying album Gold-Digger's Sound, Bridges has put out several other challenging, shared tracks, including work with John Mayer, Lucky Daye, and Jazmine Sullivan. Texas Moon represents a genuine and rare achievement, with two of the most respected and innovative acts of their generation truly collaborating to create something new. InchAs far as an essentially instrumental band, these guys are kind of the top for me,Inch says Bridges. InchI'm honored to have been the first singer that they've incorporated in their music.Inch InchIt feels really special to me,Inch says Lee. InchIt's not Khruangbin, it's not Leon, it's this world we created together.
