About this product

In this case, the promo mumbo jumbo checks out - StereogumSomewhere close to Manchester's ever changing city centre, as the sun fades and peeks through the newest glass facade, you'll find Shaking Hand. One part in shadow, the other basking in prisms of light as they sketch out their own sonic landscapes in the dusty redbrick mill they call home. One that is just about clinging on from the encroaching developments that surround them. Their debut album pulls from early post-rock, and 90s US alternative rock, creating their own brand of Northwest-emo.The band's musical DNA runs through experimental guitar outfits like Women, Slint, Sonic Youth, Pavement, and Ulrika Spacek, balanced with the melodic sensibility of Big Thief and the dynamic intimacy of Yo La Tengo. Their compositions push against structure sudden jolts of tempo, polyrhythms that almost fall apart, and riffs that unravel into something fragile or ecstatic.

InchThis is my personally-curated attempt to redress the balance, and to perhaps introduce any '80s-sceptics out there to the idea that conceptual thinking and ambition didn't suddenly evaporate after '77... ambitious, weird and thrilling music was all around you in the '80s -if you looked in the right places.Inch - Steven Wilson.

Shaking Godspeed - Awe   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2011 debut album from the Dutch rockers. Shaking Godspeed consists out of singer/guitarist Wout Kemkens (ex-The Bloody Honkies), drummer Maarten Rischen and, on keys and bass, Paul Diersen. Awe consists of 10 songs, sounding as if it has been played by a swampy, peat-fired band. A fine hallucinogenic party, rich with groovy Blues-Rock, recorded on pure instinct. Organs, swinging drums and especially the compelling hypnotic guitar lines; Awe is an experience that made the Netherlands tremble.

!!! - Shake The Shudder   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

!!! (Chk Chk Chk), the venerable New York City dance-punk band, return on Warp Records with Shake The Shudder. Recorded at the band's home studio in Brooklyn, produced by longtime collaborator Patrick Ford at Taaffe Palace, and mixed by dance luminaries Phil Moffa, Joakim and Matt Wiggins, Shake The Shudder is a product of !!!'s DIY punk roots presenting a harder edge lyrically and sonically, while incorporating trans-Atlantic electronic music influences. The album also features a cast of rotating singers including Lea Lea, Meah Pace, Nicole Fayu, Cameron Mesirow and Molly Schnick. Thematically, Shake To Shudder reflects a band that has been together for twenty years. In the band's early days, they had the typical punk attitude, pointing fingers at everything that's going wrong in the world to cover up for their own inner turmoil. Now the band, older and wiser, are more comfortable with being more vulnerable, looking inwards instead of reacting outwards. To them you do this through friends, music, dancing, lovers... for Shake The Shudder, the sound of protest can be a march or it can be a sick groove paired with some short shorts.
