"Fifteen Quiet Years is a celebratory document four years in the making; a repository for all the important Rodan recordings that fans of Rusty have long wished they could unearth. The collection includes the 1994 BBC Peel session, together with all of Rodan's long-out-of-print 7"s and compilation tracks. In 2009, Bob Weston, Jeff Mueller and Jason Noble lovingly re-mastered the tracks at Chicago Mastering Service. All formats of the album will include a digital download of 10 bonus live recordings selected by Jason, Jeff, Tara Jane O’Neil and Kevin from their extensive personal archives. The packaging for the vinyl album and CD was designed by Jason Noble and Jeff Mueller, and has been letterpress printed by Jeff Mueller at his own Dexterity Press studio.

Despite the brief time span of their existence (1992-1994), Rodan appeared on a surprising number of records. Aside from their classic (and only) full length album Rusty (1994 on Quarterstick Records), the band released the Aviary demo cassette, and the How The Winter Was Passed single. They also contributed tracks to the Compulsiv For Two, Inclined Plane, and Merry Christmas Is For Rockers compilations as well as released a song on the soundtrack to the film Half Cocked (in which they also acted), and recorded a brilliant session at the BBC studios in London for the John Peel show (unreleased until now)."

I'm not sure if anyone around here even likes them but Rodan are such an amazing/underrated band. I have been waiting years for those Peel Sessions to be officially released and I really can't wait.

They are easily in my top 5 favorite bands and I would give both of my nuts this second to be able to go back in time and see them play. Or any other Jason Noble project for that matter.

 

I am glad Jason was able to have a hand in this project before he passed. This is going to be so good.

Very interested, but I hate pitchfork's streaming services so much. I probably won't be able to listen to this properly until it comes out. At least I feel safe in assuming it will be great.

 

It's fantastic. I usually stay away from Pitchfork but couldn't resist with this one.

 

Weird that you are having problems, Juan. I have been streaming for the past few hours and haven't had any trouble.
