About this product
Chicago's acclaimed ensemble Natural Information Society (NIS) returns with Perseverance Flow, a bold new LP that distills over 15 years of sonic exploration into a single, continuous 37-minute composition. Featuring the core quartet-Joshua Abrams (guimbri), Lisa Alvarado (harmonium), Mikel Patrick Avery (drums), and Jason Stein (bass clarinet)-the album marks a shift from recent guest-heavy releases to a studio-as-collaborator approach. Abrams and engineer Greg Norman push post-production into the foreground, warping timbres and textures into a mesmerizing dub-infused soundscape. Drawing from minimalism, modal jazz, and traditional musics, Perseverance Flow is both a destruction and creation myth-an immersive, rhythmically intricate journey that rewards deep listening. Described as Inchenergetically nutritiousInch by The Wire, this is NIS at it's most formally experimental and emotionally resonant.

Deluxe vinyl LP pressing. Oh, Inverted World, the earth-shattering, indie-rock-redefining 2001 debut album by The Shins, is presented here in it's finest form, dressed up all nice for it's 20th birthday. The classic tunes get new life by way of a full remastering job under band leader James Mercer's watchful eye, the art is given a little extra zest via a die-cut jacket and a classy inner sleeve, and the package is rounded off with a big ol' booklet with vintage photos, handwritten lyrics, and more. The music, of course, is obviously essential. Aside from a friendly reminder that this is the album with the smash hit InchNew Slang,Inch as heard in the hit movie Garden State, we just need to note that the remastering job truly makes this the album James Mercer always wanted it to be. Never quite satisfied with the sonics of the original, Mercer took the 20th anniversary of the album as his opportunity to finally set the (literal!) record straight. And the results sound stellar great for new fans, and well worth the attention of those already on board!
