About this product

Knifeplay's sophomore full-length, and first ever studio album Animal Drowning is a sprawling landscape of shoegaze and lofty slowcore. The album finds the band in a blend of folk instruments, walls of distortion, orchestral strings and delicate vocals, all carefully organized by Philadelphia engineer/producer Jeff Zeigler, known for his work with Nothing, Kurt Vile, and more.Though their sonic palette is vast, Knifeplay craft a cohesive aesthetic to carry frontman Tj Strohmer's thematically heavy songwriting, which touches on loss of all kinds against the backdrop of a nihilistic world. These songs cry out with urgency no matter their ever-varied tempo and dynamic, each painting a unique vignette of tragedy. Yet the band's dense, meticulously composed instrumentation exudes beauty, creating a lightness to balance the subject matter.With Animal Drowning, Knifeplay goes deeper into the sonic experimentation and brutally honest lyricism so beloved on their early bedroom recordings, creating an enrapturing experience that deftly builds on previous work.1.

Johnny Burnette - Tear It Up: The Rockabilly Years 1956-59   - VINYL LP

Johnny Burnette had two distinct phases in his career. Many will remember his Liberty years, the teen idol performing polished pop such as Dreamin', You're Sixteen and Little Boy Sad. Before this transformation though, he was Rockabilly through and through. With his visceral vocals and the driving rhythms of his brother Dorsey and his Rock 'n' Roll Trio, Johnny Burnette laid down some of the finest rockabilly tracks of all time. This collection concentrates on that era. It is not about conquering charts or sales successes, but highlights the pure power, energy and spirit of the music that helped form rock 'n' roll. We feature the best of Burnette's recorded singles up to his commercial breakthrough in 1960 including the immortal Tear It Up, the distorted chugging's of The Train Kept A-Rollin' and Honey Hush, through to the distinctly mad Gumbo.
