There comes a point in every band's life when originality stops being a virtue and honesty takes the wheel. On their 11th long-playing record, Forgeries (72-84), 16 return to the impulse that first dragged them into loud rooms and bad ideas: the urge to steal what you love and make it semi-unrecognizable through devotion. The band have partnered with Heavy Psych Sounds Records to release a collection of covers that function less as homage and more as a possession to be given away. The artwork, rendered by the ever-amazing Marald, completes the ritual, iconic, unsettling, and unafraid. From the early '90s onward, 16 have treated covers as translations rather than as replicas, acts of tribute and emulation, filtered through distortion, fatigue, and lived experience. In the band's collective head, this album exists because these songs demanded it. In the end, Forgeries (72-84) stands as both a thank you note and a theft, a reminder that all music worth a damn is borrowed, broken, and passed on between friends. The selections on Forgeries (72-84) span eras and attitudes, unified not by genre but by necessity. Each track is a document of obsession, of influence absorbed and re-expressed without permission. Also available on black vinyl (HPS 386LP), green vinyl (HPS 386LTD-LP), and splatter color vinyl (HPS 386ULTRA-LP).
