Decline Of C&w Civ Ii / Colab
Rogue Records
ALT COUNTRY
LAMBCHOP is a loose musical collective of anywhere from 5 to 17 players from Nashville, TN, and they sound like no one else. Drawing influences from country, soul, r&b, rock n roll, roots etc, Lambchop defy easy categorization. This release is a collection of works from 1993 to 1999 and includes a bonus 4 track EP.
Critics have long held Lambchop in high esteem and attribute their unique sound to "bizarre influences'' drawn on by their mastermind, KURT WAGNER, one of the most singular, and best, songwriters of recent time.
They have been recording music for nearly 15 years and have released 9 albums - all on American indie record label MERGE RECORDS (SUPERCHUNK, THE ARCADE FIRE) - and many more sundry EPs, singles, cassettes and compilation tracks.
This release is a career-spanning compilation of singles, compilation tracks and unreleased gems. A follow-up to their first compilation of uncollected works, 2001's 'Tools In The Dryer' (released in Australia on SPUNK! RECORDS), this latest album collects recordings from their earliest days, along with sketchbook versions that would later appear on the 'Thriller' and 'Nixon' albums.
INCLUDES BONUS 4 TRACK EP
As a bonus to the Australian/New Zealand release of the album, ROGUE RECORDS (THE HOLD STEADY, COCOROISE, SMALL SIPS) is releasing the album coupled with the overlooked 'Colab' EP from 2005, an interesting collaboration between Lambchop and Nashville electronic duo, HANDS OFF CUBA. Lambchop's songs are reshaped, re-textured, deconstructed and remixed providing gorgeous electronic-minded musical backdrops.
An essential for any collector or curious new comer.
