About this product
*ON LIMITED NEON GREEN VINYL!!! The first album from unconventional Polish power trio Species, To Find Deliverance, leveled one with it's rare blend of technical thrash prowess and unorthodox but highly inspired songwriting, enough to make 20 Buck Spin's best of 2022 album list. Out of that list a collaboration was born and now Species make their 20 Buck Spin debut with second album Changelings. A step up in every regard, Changelings is astonishing in it's accomplished precision and how much it manages to achieve within the scope of individual tracks and as a cohesive whole. The album features an overload of angular guitar warfare, traditional Euro-thrash aggression with a modern resonance, rhythmic percussive seizures, and intricate basslines that make their intention deeply felt, not just following the guitar but dialoguing with it in a way that offers a second melodic brain to the album. In combination these elements thread seamlessly to give Changelings it's colorful and uncanny vision, as if John Carpenter had co-produced Rust In Peace behind the iron curtain. It's bristling with sci-fi paranoia, alien terror and a hint of Cold War menace. The early convergence of thrash metal with death metal is also unmistakably present in the shape-shifting sound of Species.While there's more than enough primitive and traditional thrash bands to go around, Species embraces the genre's lesser-travelled road of forward-thinking virtuosity and inventive experimentation, showing there's still plenty of fertile ground to seed new musical territory. Nowhere is it more apparent than on 10-minute album closer InchBiological MasterpieceInch, where Species displays all it's weapons; hyperspeed assaults, dystopian lulls and instrumental mastery, in a climatic saga beyond space and time. Changelings is that rare album nowadays that still has the ability to surprise in the most triumphant

Inspired by a recent trip to Memphis we wanted to create an organic album with a minimal amount of overdubs and production. DJs and fans have been asking us for a live album and we hope to cut one in the future - but for now we have a studio album that was primarily cut live with first or second takes. Our goal was to capture the energy, excitement, and raw emotive powers of freshly written original tunes and some select covers. So much fantastic music has come out of the legendary studios of Memphis and we hope with this album that we have embodied the spirit of some of the great blues, soul, and roots music that has helped shape America. 'Milwaukee-based R&B machine Tweed Funk is a powerhouse in the tradition of Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels, laced with the stage presence of Luther Allison. The band could be compared to neo-throwback soul merchants like Charles Walker and the Dynamites or even Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, although Tweed's Stax-influenced sound is maxed out with a horn section that's loud and in charge.' - Living Blues Magazine.
Double vinyl LP pressing. When the prevailing guitar jingle of 'Mr. Jones' cascaded over radio in the early 90s, it was a sure sign that the Counting Crows were a musical force to be reckoned with. Their 1993 debut album, August and Everything After, burst at the seams with both dominant pop harmonies and rich, hearty ballads, all thanks to lead singer Adam Duritz. The lone guitar work of 'Mr. Jones' coupled with the sweet, in-front pull of Duritz's voice kicked off the album in full force. The album cover depicts handwritten lyrics to a song called InchAugust and Everything AfterInch, but the band decided against featuring the song on the album of the same name; it was not until over a decade later that it was played as part of one of their live concerts.
