DE STIJL
Format:
LP
Price:
$17.00
Catalog #:
DESTIJL 090LP
"Wet Hair have been living on the road and in the studio for the last few years and have made something special out of little more than synths, drums, flesh, blood, organs and ideas. They've traveled the world supporting the astral concepts of their music, which has henceforth had a subterranean visibility.
In Vogue Spirit
is their third LP and it is surely the one wherein all elements have gelled : the hazy, shifting experimental semi-thrust, the psychedelic production (notice we didn't use the word 'dub') and the effortless melodic flow contribute to the vibe that makes this sound infinitely more fresh than the forms explored therein. There is no seismic shift. Worlds don't collide. Silver apples don't grow on the moon. The contributions Wet Hair makes nudge a strange and subtle augmentation on the template, and that's all I'm content with asking of pop music."

Price:

Catalog #:
NNF 172LP
"Welcome back. One of NNF's total favorite active bands return with a second full-length (most of which was recorded during the same sessions that birthed their debut LP,
Dream
) and we are pleased as spiked fruit punch. The Reed/Garbes duo mainly sticks to their guns, mining the same post-Suicide art-trance vein they perfected on
Dream
, but with
Glass Fountain
there's an added emphasis on the disembodied, oscillator pop mode that Wet Hair often toy with. Fountain's five tracks include some of the band's simplest but catchiest songs ('Crucifix In The Waves,' 'When The Right Time Comes,' etc), mesmerizing organ melodies over plink-plonky vintage drum machines with weirdo soulful singing and outer space electronics, like an outsider-punk Silver Apples or something. Hard to say exactly what universe Wet Hair are operating in and that's probably part of why we love it so much. A killer record that gets better each spin. In jackets with art drawn and designed by the band, plus a pro-printed 11x11 insert." On opaque lavender-colored vinyl.
