Fowty Dollaz Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 http://store.glacialpace.com/products/modest-mouse-life-of-arctic-sounds-7-inch-vinyl It is what it says it is. There was a period in the '90s when you could argue that 7"s were more important to underground upstarts than full-length albums. Seven inches were cheap, and young bands stood a better chance of unloading a small run of EPs than pricier LPs. Consequently, they became the preferred format for putting your best foot forward, and as a result many indie stalwarts' finest moments were initially packaged as 7"s. Case in point: Modest Mouse first stormed onto the scene with a series of now classic EPs and singles. Among those early masterpieces was "A Life of Arctic Sounds" b/w "Medication", which perfectly captured the celebratory chaos, melodic introspection, and pensive piss-and-vinegar of these indie icons. Pressed on White vinyl. Did research. It is a reissue from Suicide Squeeze. One cent cheaper there: http://suicidesqueeze.scdstore.net/ THE_James_Champ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just saw it today and thought it odd it was unannounced. The fact that it's regularly in print explains it. Themoreyouknow.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
