we have news about new releases in the new year!
krank151 Guider is the second studio album from chicago quartet Disappears and will see release on LP / CD / digital on the 17th of january.
Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune had this to say about their first album Lux in his best of 2010 post this week:
"A freight train of swarming guitars riding relentless beats, and vocals that manage to stay deadpan even as all hell is breaking loose.
The production is border-line anarchic, murky and foreboding. If you're a stickler for cleanliness, stay away."
following that will be the krank154 Tim Hecker-Ravedeath, 1972 album which will be available on 2LP / CD / digital on february 14th.
recorded this fall in a church in Iceland with comrade Ben Frost at the controls, not to be missed.
the final bit of info for the moment is the krank155 Belong-Common Era LP / CD / digital which will be unleashed on march 21st.
it has been five years since this new orleans duo has delivered an album, and this will be a revelation for fans and newcomers alike.
there are a few more spring and summed releases in the works, more info to come.
