About this product

Vinyl LP pressing. Made up of brothers Ian and Daragh Lynch, Cormac MacDiarmada and Radie Peat, Dublin four-piece Lankum have gained worldwide acclaim for their first two albums and captivating, often euphoric live performances. New effort, The Livelong Day successfully blends alternative folk and psychedelia. Lankum honor the sacredness of traditional Irish tunes, but allow them to metamorphose, to grow and breathe like the heavy, ancient breath of the Uilleann pipes which seethe beneath the tracks of their third studio album. InchDrone is a big part of traditional music because the Uilleann pipes are indigenous to Ireland, so we're ramping up that history and taking it as far as we can,Inch notes the group. This is the idea found at the core of the universe created in The Livelong Day; expanding and emboldening that which is already playing out in history. Alongside the traditional songs on the record, there are two originals, the haunting InchYoung PeopleInch and the tragic beauty of InchHunting The Wren.Inch

Lankum - False Lankum   - VINYL LP

From the start, Dublin's Lankum planned for False Lankum, their fourth record and third for Rough Trade, to feel like a complete piece - a progression and a journey for the listener. They explain, Inchwe wanted to create more contrast on the record so the light parts would be almost spiritual and the dark parts would be incredibly dark, even horror inducing.Inch The album's 12 tracks, composed of 10 traditional songs and two originals, show the four-piece using a new palate to color their sound in an increasingly experimental way, alongside longtime producer John 'Spud' Murphy.A1.

Lankum - Live At Vicar Street   - VINYL LP

Moon Far Away - Acou   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Some of the richest music is also the hardest to categorise. With their fifth full-length InchAcouInch, Moon Far Away embark on a musical exploration of the magical nature of sound. The band from the sub-arctic city of Arkhangelsk in Russia's north is studying the mythological cycle of the universe by assigning certain sounds and musical styles that range from the archaic and folklore to liturgical, classical, and even experimental music to each stage of it's existence. Moon Far Away were inspired by the finding that the world begins and ends in many ancient legends with a sound - from the utterance of a word to actual music or even the big bang of science. On InchAcouInch, which means 'listen!' in Greek, the word (lógos) and music (mousike) are as fundamental to the fabric of the universe as the classical elements of earth, fire, water, and air. Moon Far Away have occasionally been referred to as Inchthe heart of Russian gothic folkInch or InchThe Russian Dead Can DanceInch, which are notions that still ring true regarding InchAcouInch. Their music appears to be both light and even dreamy on the surface, yet at the same time it comes with a dignity, gravitas and passionate seriousness that set these songs apart from simple pop; despite sounding captivating and melodic. With InchAcouInch, Moon Far Away present their richest and most complete album so far that will find old and new friends from a wide range of stylistic preferences that certainly include fans of DEAD CAN DANCE, ALCEST, WARDRUNA, and many others - although the unique band from Russia's North does sound different from all of those mentioned above. There is only one way to find out InchAcouInch! Listen!
