drds89 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 OK, here's one for the DIY LA postrock band Barrows, whose debut, "Imprecari Island" in 2011 can be heard and pay what you you want here: http://barrowstheband.bandcamp.com/ This band is not "Explosions..." copycats, and though young, I believe have excellent chops. Maybe not Slint prodigies, but still solid listen. Starts off heavy and lightens up a bit until the closer. So... the VINYL...right! They started taking PO's this week, and I can't remember if Black vinyl or Red (I will try to find out and update). Here's their store on Big Cartel and they tweeted they are streaming the album on Spotify, but I don't do Spotify: http://barrowstheband.bigcartel.com/product/red-giant-12-lp Red Giant 12" LP (Preorder) $15.00 Pre Order our new album "Red Giant" on a 12" slab of vinyl and we will send you a free 11" x 17" Imprecari Island poster (folded in half and packaged with the LP) We will also send you a digital download of "Red Giant" for free one day before the release date (May 5th). Please note we will not be receiving our vinyl till May 18th. We will mail you your record and free poster on or around May 18th. You will receive a digital copy of the record on May 5th. The digital copy will be sent to the email address used to pay for this preorder. If you would like us to send the digital copy to a different email address then the one you use to pay for the preorder, please include a note with your paypal payment informing us what email address to send the digital copy to.

drds89 Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 I emailed the band for info on the vinyl. All black vinyl standard gram press Thanks dude! Opening track here: http://www.metalsucks.net/2014/05/01/exclusive-premiere-barrows-red-giant/ "Not that some big-time name-dropping should impact your appreciation of the music, but in the event it gets just one more person to give this track a chance: the album was produced by Toshi Kasai (Melvins, Tool) and Dale Crover (Melvins) and mastered by Chris Common (Palms, Pelican). Clearly Barrows have fans in high places." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
