jhulud Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 The mere thought of these two bands on a split release melts my brain. Yeah, I'm pumped.(Teaser pic was posted on the Death Of Lovers thread a week or so ago. Why not its own thread?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 10/9 - Up now @ RFC Release InformationThe long-anticipated split by WHIRR and NOTHING is in no way a let down to anyone that’s been waiting for it. The two new songs from each band are perfected with the expertise of veteran producer Will Yip. Whirr’s signature atmospheric haze enthralls more than ever in what seems like a nine-minute dream. Their masterful control of soundscapes is matched only by an intensity that their shoegazing predecessors could only wish to achieve. Nothing’s contribution is a full-on aural assault: the two songs are aggressive, yet harmonious.The ongoing blown-out barrage lulls with only brief periods of quiet melody that hit like armistices. Yet, the songs are harshly beautiful in a way that perfectly captures the Philadelphia band’s definition of reality.The split 12" comes with an etched b-side as well as a full-length Whirr/Nothing 'In The Studio' documentary DVD.Vinyl Pressing Information500 180g Black1000 Pink1000 Baby Blue1000 Cream/Green Marble1500 Green/Baby Blue/Yellow Starburst Deluxe Package Includes:• Whirr / Nothing - Split 12" Ep (180 gram black vinyl / 500)• Whirr / Nothing - 'In The Studio' DVD• Whirr / Nothing - Nirvana T-shirt• Whirr - Swirl 46" x 46" flag• Nothing - Logo 46" x 46" flag http://www.runforcoverstore.com/index.php/artists/whirr/whirr-nothing-nirvana-long-sleeve-shirt-2205.html Regular single 12" http://www.runforcoverstore.com/index.php/artists/whirr/whirr-nothing-split-12-ep.html batnoises and kamalatapes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantheriver Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 RFC just instagramed a picture of the flyer and it was clearly propped up in the background of today's TWT. Let the hype train officially begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travman Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 i wonder if the whirr tracks will be all male vocals I'd assume so since The Native Sound have been pushing the Miserable EP as " the former vocalist of whirr". That stuff is good too. Of course they could have another female vocalist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 They've had like 338 different vocalists. Also, this interests me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It was only a matter of time before they did a split together. They have toured with each other quite a bit. I am very much looking forward to this release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 The mere thought of these two bands on a split release melts my brain. Yeah, I'm pumped. (Teaser pic was posted on the Death Of Lovers thread a week or so ago. Why not its own thread?) Thank you for getting a thread going here! I didn't feel comfortable doing it - there's already a lot of fuel and energy in anticipation of this. Marketing strategists at work. They have figured us out.

jacobweigh Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Stoked! Also...I'm not certain you're allowed to do this, but does anyone have a copy of the OG "Distressor" press from SOSN that they'd sell or possibly trade? HMU! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 I have this feeling that this split will be each band covering Nirvana. Perhaps maybe hmmmm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
