Part experimental indie and part '70s soft rock, Califone's first record in three years finds creative force Tim Rutili reaching new levels of harmony, fragility, and confidence. Whether detailing aging goths retaining their identity through year-long spooky decorations (InchHalloweenInch), an imagined conversation with an inbred monarch (InchHabsburg JawInch), or the conflicts between identity and technology (InchOx-EyeInch), Villagers' nine tracks spread out and luxuriates in the messy darkness of modern life. Like sitting in awe on the porch swing at the end of the world, Califone's latest marvels at the edge of the universe spreading into the darkness of infinity. With 25 years of Califone in his catalog (not to mention a variety of other projects, including alt rock heroes Red Red Meat), the Chicago-born, Los Angeles-based knows well how to find that moment of awe and bliss even as things are falling apart. Part poet, part abstract painter, and always surrounded by a variety of hyper-talented collaborators (here including longtime cohorts Ben Massarella, Michael Krassner, Rachel Blumberg, and Brian Deck, as well as the likes of Nora O'Connor and Finom's Macie Stewart), Rutili has always excelled at luring listeners through elusive lyrics, flashes of shadows and images coming together in disarming unity. Album Tracks 1. The Habsburg Jaw 2. Eyelash 3. McMansions 4. Villagers 5. Comedy 6. Ox-Eye 7. Halloween 8. Skunkish 9. Sweetly

It's just over 30 years ago that former Suede guitarist Bernard Butler and ex-Thieves frontman David McAlmont unleashed the extraordinary single 'Yes' at the beginning of a summer awash with Britpop and Ibiza rave. With it's instant-classic sound, augmented by soaring '60s strings, it sounded epic and most definitely unlike anything else at the time. Rightly, today it's considered a stone-cold classic. When it followed in the December of the same year, the album 'The Sound Of...' was an immensely satisfying and beguiling mix of classic songwriting, immaculate production, and blending of rock and soul. The album was also singled out by critics as one of the year's very best. 'The Guardian' newspaper awarded it a maximum 5 stars while 'The Times's critic commented Inchthe monumental climax to the seven-minute-long 'You Do' provides a fitting end both to the album and to a relationship that shook so hard that perhaps it had to shatter.Inch For this limited-edition reissue, the original album has been mastered over 2LPs for enhanced audio quality. Mastering from the original studio tapes was overseen by Bernard himself and undertaken by his longtime studio partner George Shilling. Album Tracks 1. Yes (Full Version) 2.
