Artist:	HUNDRED IN THE HANDS, THE
Title:	This Desert
Label:	WARP RECORDS (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$8.00
Catalog #:	WAP 293CD

"This Desert strikes a path that touches on elegant French pop, blissed out dub, house and post-punk. The 6-track EP sets the stage for deeper explorations on a full-length this fall (2010). The Brooklyn-based duo consisting of Jason Friedman and Eleanore Everdell creates emotionally charged and intensely driving music, which harks back to the most classic of dance songs from NYC's storied underground. The band describes the EP as, 'The more ethereal, gauzy side of our tastes; the Summertime-Gothic and dreamy tracks we made thinking they'd go well with open hydrants and looks that kill.' But The Hundred in the Hands' self-description belies more than just a dance band. Everdell and Friedman bend and blend styles, sounds and eras into something that doesn't feel confused, fake or forced. It just feels fun."

Title:	Keep It Low
Label:	WARP RECORDS (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.50
Catalog #:	WAP 335EP

"The Hundred In The Hands have emerged from their dimly-lit New York studio with a self-produced meditation on separation and reunion, love nearly lost and the long night back to it; a chronicle of late-hour pining awash in digital glow and urban buzzing. The first single from Red Night, Keep It Low is a grinding jam that foregrounds the sounds of timeless Industrial and Krautrock tracks, whilst maintaining an undeniably affecting vocal performance from singer Eleanore Everdell. Exclusive to this 12" is previously unreleased b-side 'Mountains,' a dubbed-out track with lurid vocal inflections."

"On the heels of their critically acclaimed EP, This Desert, Brooklyn's The Hundred in the Hands will release their debut full-length on Warp Records. Time Out New York says 'The Hundred in the Hands music springs from that sliver of the early '80s in which pop was personal, arty and potentially angry,' while Brooklyn Vegan calls their EP 'a bit post-punky, a bit shoegaze-y but sounds like now. And you can dance to it.' The new recording follows the band's first national tour and a wave of critical praise from the U.K. and Europe. The Hundred in the Hands is an album of deceptively complex pop songs which hark back to the dance music of NYC's storied underground. Where their EP feels like a summertime pop dream, THITH's album conjures the spirit of downtown's mutant disco scene as made legendary by clubs like the Paradise Garage."
