About This Item
At the Moonbase, the fourth full-length album from Slaughter Beach, Dog, is a return to form for Philadelphia bandleader Jake Ewald. Written and recorded alone at home and at The Metal Shop, Ewald's East Kensington recording studio, the album tracks an exercise in solitary production not unlike Slaughter Beach, Dog's 2016 debut Welcome or 2017's Motorcycle. JPG. On the heels of 2019's Safe and Also No Fear, Ewald's latest offering brings expanded arrangements and sharpened storytelling as he taps into salad days over slacker rock (InchDo You UnderstandInch), the dark grooves of seedy city life (InchSong for OscarsInch), and even a barroom-piano-driven Inchescapade through the great American bedroomInch (InchA Modern LayInch). At the Moonbase arrives December 24th on Lame-O Records. Album Tracks 1. Are You There 2. Do You Understand (What Has Happened to You) 3. My Girl 4. Jonathan 5. Thinking of You 6. A Modern Lay 7.
