About this product
'These Exit Times' is the name of a newsletter sent by an environmental organisation advocating the extinction of the human race as a solution to save the planet. When Victor Ramirez first came across the group on the internet a couple of years ago, it brought a smile to his face. But after some pondering on the subject, he decided that 'Exit Times' would be the name of his sensational third album as Ramirez Exposure. The record started to take shape in early 2020, after a musical hiatus that had lasted a year. It had been somewhat of a dark period, and Victor felt it was time to go back to recording songs. It would be the first time he would be doing so at home. He had managed to set up a small studio that would allow him to make some proper recordings, and without having to use a computer. He'd also started a new job, as an orderly in a hospital, which gave him time to record and cash to pay the rent. Victor was ready to take on the task of making the album with the help-albeit from a distance, this time-of Ken Stringfellow (Posies, Big Star) and Brian Young (Jesus & Mary Chain, Ivy, Fountains of Wayne), both regular accomplices of the Valencian in production and instrumentation. Working with the two of them feels very natural for him, even though they are in three different countries. Looking back, it seemed as if he'd prepared himself for what was coming. And so, the pandemic happened, and Victor found himself turning the ideas he had outlined on his phone into the songs for Exit Times. He was in a good place, personally and, despite the situation, he was happy to be able to contribute to society through his job at the hospital and, after coming home, to concentrate on his music and isolate himself from everything else. Gradually, the sketches turned into luminous songs, with bright harmonies and lyrics that exude a fine irony. Victor admits that he strives to be

Ramirez returns with THA PLAYA$ MANUAL II, the long-awaited sequel to his cult classic that helped solidify his place as one of underground rap's most distinctive voices. Steeped in Southern-fried funk, Bay Area swagger, and Memphis-style menace, this new chapter finds Ramirez sharper, smoother, and more seasoned-delivering game like a streetwise sage with a gold grill grin.Where the original Playa$ Manual was gritty and raw, THA PLAYA$ MANUAL II sounds like a player who's leveled up. The beats knock harder, the flows glide slicker, and the game is deeper. Ramirez weaves tales of betrayal, come-ups, late-night drives, and cold-hearted reality with the same charismatic cool that made him a standout in the $uicideboy$-adjacent G59 movement-but this time with a more refined, cinematic approach.From trunk-rattling bangers to syrupy smooth cuts that soundtrack late-night escapades, THA PLAYA$ MANUAL II feels like a ride through Ramirez's world with tinted windows up and the bass on max. It's a record for the hustlers, the heartbreakers, the loners, and the legends in the making.This is more than a sequel-it's a statement the playa's still active, and the manual's been updated.

Ltd 300, 425gsm heavy cardboard cover, 4 pages insert, reissue 2024, Along with the new album InchLightbringerInch High Roller Records is also proud to InchForced EntryInch on vinyl. Finally! There have been rumors about a possible vinyl of InchForced EntryInch for years, so some people begand to doubt that it would ever happen. Ram's singer Oscar Carlquist explains why the publication took so long InchBecause we could not agree with our partly owned tag 'Black Path Metal Recordings'. Forces within that tag did not want to press it on vinyl for economic reasons and not sell the rights to it either. We always wanted a vinyl since we are vinyl fanatics. This time it worked out, thanks to AFM and High Roller.Inch So where is the main difference between InchForced EntryInch and InchLightbringerInch? Oscar Inch'Lightbringer' has some different dimensions to it that 'Forced Entry' did not have. It shows more facets of the sound. We try to do something different for every album and work with new concepts for every new song we make. I love both albums and I can't say that one is better than the other. I am just happy to be part of a band with such talented songwriters and musicians.Inch Ram being such a busy live act, of all the bands they have played with, which one did they like most? Oscar reflects InchI suppose you mean which bands Ram have shared stages with. That's a hard question, but Raven really blew me away when we played with them in Holland. I also loved the most recent shows we did with U.D.O, when they played 'Midnight Mover' at the soundcheck in Gävle. It gave me the goosebumbs so bad that I started to cry. U.D.O still has it, no doubt.Inch One of Ram's longterm aims is being able to live off their music InchAbsolutley, we have no intention of making this some ultra underground cellar project. Don't get me wrong I love the underground, being part of
