HOOD – the hood tapes (LP Vinyl)

45 RPM, Limited Edition. Erstmalig auf Vinyl. Eine Sammlung von Songs der legendären Postrock-/Indierockband aus Leeds, die nach dem letzten, 2005 veröffentlichten Album "Outside Closer" als Tour-Only-CD erschien, die auf ihrer Abschiedstournee verkauft wurde und Teil des Recollected-Boxsets war. It contains all new music that seems to straddle their career from scratchy experimental New Zealand weirdo lo-fi to the stuttery and staccato r&b influenced pop they sprinkled over that last Outside Closer missive. "The Hood Tapes" could also be seen as a series of sketches of potential future musical avenues open to the band who eventually instead chose to remain silent and although key band members still operate under such names as Bracken, The Declining Winter and A New Line (Related), there has never been any further work issued under the Hood umbrella. "The Hood Tapes" therefore is an overlooked key component to their storied history and this essential release brings it in line with their more well-known work. *Acuarela
