The Golden Apples - Shadowland - Yellow - VINYL LP

Russell Edling of Cherry would like to announce a moniker change to Golden Apples, and in do-ing so invite you to his new album InchShadowlandInch. Taking cues from mid 2000s golden era indie rock and adding the inevitable realism that comes with being in your 30s, InchShadowlandInch is a rec-ord infused with the warmth and charm of the home where it was recorded, as well as the sense of anxiety and isolation that comes from staying there. It is a whimsical and at times resigned look at what it means to be a reflection, a shadow, something created by the shine of something else. InchShadowlandInch embraces it's imperfections to create an intimate and defined shape, all the more precious for it's decision to not to shine. It doesn't ask you to go blurry-eyed staring at the sun. Instead it invites you to find understanding in the shapes left by the sun's absence.

In the corner of your vision, there's a daydream on a mis- sion says Russell Edling in the beginning of InchPark (Rye)Inch. Humming vibrations crescendo around the words floating in the air and a listener may visualize a flower growing in fast motion, or a dog running backwards, lava flowing, children jumping rope in the evening sun. Suddenly these visions plumet and new frenetic images appear as drums, percus- sion, and full accompaniment burst into space. The band has arrived, a theme recurrent in Golden Apples' new record, Bananasugarfire.A listener might hear echoes of the Velvet Underground, Ste- reolab, Stone Roses, Yo La Tengo, but there is more going on than just a studied homage to indie rock's progenitors. The themes of doubt and bewilderment found on previous albums are still present, but they are thrown into a kalaedo- scope with beams of positivity, hope, and optimism.
