About this product

We recorded Open Door Policy in two different sessions in the back half of 2019. Once again we teamed with producer Josh Kaufman and engineer Dan Goodwin, this time at the Clubhouse studio in upstate NY. Our intention was to create an album that worked as a grand piece, rather than a collection of songs. 2019 was an active year for The Hold Steady - our writing was consistent, and new songs were coming in pretty regularly. The recording process was creative, open and fun. We were pretty much done with the record by the time we played a few of the new songs in London the first week of March 2020, as the unease of the pandemic was setting in. Not long after we got back from London, NYC shut down and we began to see our 2020 shows postponed. Over the next months, it became obvious that timing this album's to specific weekend celebrations wouldn't be a possibility in the near future. But we were still excited to share it. InchThe songs on Open Door Policy are about power, wealth, and mental health. They're about technology, occupation, consumerism, freedom, fandom and escape. And although the album was written and recorded in 2019, the themes of this record seem to be underscored and highlighted by this year of virus and quarantine.Inch - Craig Finn Album Tracks 1. The Feelers 2. Spices 3. Lanyards 4. Family Farm 5. Unpleasant Breakfast 6. Heavy Covenant 7. The Prior Procedure 8. Riptown 9. Me & Magdalena 10. Hanover Camera

The Weather Station - How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars   - VINYL LP

'How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars' is an introspective record of songs which were written alongside those that appeared on Ignorance. It is intended not to be a follow up, but to be a companion piece, a piece of reflection and quiet, meant to hold stillness in the aftermath. It was recorded live, as a performance; an improvisation, with a group of Toronto jazz musicians. I imagined it as a record of ballads; simple, pure, almost naive, but speaking to many of the same realities as 'Ignorance' does. I see the two albums as two halves of the same coin; the moon and sun, a photograph and a photonegative. - Tamara Lindeman. Album Tracks 1. Marsh 2. Endless Time 3. Taught 4. Ignorance 5.

The Wallflowers - Exit Wounds   - VINYL LP

Vinyl LP pressing. 2021 . Rock 'n' roll is often hard to define, or even to find, in these fractured musical times. But to paraphrase an old saying, you know it when you hear it. And you always hear it with The Wallflowers. For the past 30 years, the Jakob Dylan-led act has stood as one of rock's most dynamic and purposeful bands - a unit dedicated to and continually honing a sound that meshes timeless songwriting and storytelling with a hard-hitting and decidedly modern musical attack. But while it's been nine long years since we've heard from the group with whom he first made his mark, The Wallflowers are silent no more. And Dylan always knew they'd return. InchThe Wallflowers is much of my life's work,Inch he says simply. That life's work continues with Exit Wounds. Album Tracks 1. Maybe Your Heart's Not in It No More 2. Roots and Wings 3. I Hear the Ocean (When I Wanna Hear Trains) 4. The Dive Bar in My Heart 5. Darlin' Hold on 6. Move the River 7. I'll Let You Down (But Will Not Give You Up) 8. Wrong End of the Spear 9. Who's That Man Walking 'Round My Garden 10. The Daylight Between Us
