About this product
Sunlight Tonight is the debut solo record from Whigs frontman, Parker Gispert. The eight-song effort finds Gispert, known for leading the Whigs through raw and jangly southern-garage rave-ups, taking a decidedly different musical approach' biting electric guitar riffs are cast out in favor of gentle acoustic picking and strumming, and his band mates' raucous rhythms are traded in for minimal accompaniment that includes light bass and drums, orchestral strings and even trumpet. Gispert's lyrics, meanwhile, are his most introspective and personal to date (albeit with a bit of humor thrown in here and there) and they're delivered in a vocal style that finds him pushing out on his range. The end result showcases a different side of the artist, to be sure. But it's one that Gispert felt compelled to explore. Sunlight Tonight was cut at Blackbird Studios and Hacienda Studios, with producer Emery Dobyns (Patti Smith, Antony and the Johnsons) at the helm. Dobyns also added various instrumentation to the tracks, alongside contributions from Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney, former Sparklehorse vocalist Sol Seppy and Adele bassist Samuel Dixon, among other musicians.

Limited gold colored vinyl LP pressing. Autographed. Golden Years is the 2022 from Whigs frontman, Parker Gispert. Golden Years is the follow up to 2018's critically acclaimed, Sunlight Tonight. Much like Sunlight Tonight, Golden Years finds Gispert embracing introspective, personal lyrics that also delve into the current social divide while at the same time writing lyrics meant to encourage the listener to get up, have fun and enjoy rock and roll. Musically, the nine-song effort finds Gispert embracing his roots with the familiar sound of the raw and jangly southern-garage rave-ups that his band, The Whigs came to be known for. Golden Years was recorded at Haptown Studios in Nashville, TN with producer Roger Moutenot (Lambchop, Yo La Tengo, Tennis) at the helm.
Limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on purple coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Shelter is best known for it's founder and frontman, Ray Cappo, who is considered as one of the most prominent representatives of the 'krishnacore' scene, which mixes the elements of hardcore with a strong spiritual message. Formed in the early 90's, Shelter was Cappo's second band - previously he was the frontman of Youth of Today. Originally released in 1997, their second album Beyond Planet Earth finds Shelter moving more in a InchPop-coreInch direction, with songs averaging 2-3 minutes. Some pretty catchy stuff can be found on this album. Listen to tracks InchAlone on My BirthdayInch, InchRefusalInch and InchTime is Ticking AwayInch. If you appreciate hardcore's energy, but feel that the music and lyrics are too one-dimensional for your taste, chances are you'll find those missing elements in Shelter's music.
