The album was completely written and recorded by Tanner in both Georgia at Harvey Milk’s vocalist and guitarist Creston Spiers’ house and in his Brooklyn apartment. Tanner continues on with the musical touchstones of Harvey Milk (Melvins, Gore, Earth, ZZ Top, Kiss and Judas Priest) while forging ahead into a strange and, at times, harrowing, unknown. Tanner’s life, from birth until now, is the theme of the album. The first song, ‘91771’, is his birthdate and the second one, ‘Premature Caesarean Removal Delivery’ is about being cut out of his mother three weeks prematurely, an act he attributes to most of his problems. He takes to heart the words his father told him at a young age: “You think life sucks now, just wait.” It’s a dirgey sludge with solid boogie moments and ‘Fade To Black’ melancholy. Tanner calls it depressing but the album hits far more notes than that. It’s slow and heavy but it moves, and there’s an expansiveness that picks up steam, a vastness akin to soundtracks. It has a cinematic quality that reveals the influences of John Carpenter and Ennio Morricone, albeit different in musicality. ‘Things Haven’t Gone Well’ features drumming from Kyle Spence (Harvey Milk, Kurt Vile band). Deluxe double LP pressed on virgin vinyl and packaged in an uncoated stock gatefold jacket with free download coupon. Initial vinyl copies are pressed on ‘sh*t brown’ coloured vinyl, with the remaining copies on black. “Stephen Tanner is a true Renaissance man” – The Village Voice “It’s a bummed-out coherence: 40 minutes of slow, thick miasma, with recurring, descending melodic phrases tying it all together.” – New York Times (on Harvey Milk) “It’s a grim journey, and often creepy as hell, but it’s by no means depressing. Mediocre music is depressing. This stuff is exhilarating.” – PopMatters (on Harvey Milk) Artist Music Blues Genre Rock And Pop Label Thrill Jockey Buying Options 2LP Gatefold Sleeve Includes Download Code Format 2LP , Gatefold Sleeve , Includes Download Code Condition New Country UK Track Listings 91771 Premature Caesarean Removal Delivery Teach The Children Hopelessness And Worthlessness Trying And Giving Up Great Depression Failure Death March It’s Not Going To Get Better Tremendous Misery Sets In The Price Is Wrong Bonus Track Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View J Colleran Gardenia Rock And Pop | Because Music | 1LP, Includes CD Released 29th June 2018 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders J Colleran Gardenia £17.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Because Music SKU: BEC5543490 Formats: 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 29th June 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Primal Scream Demodelica Rock And Pop | Sony Music | 2LP Released 15th October 2021 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Primal Scream Demodelica £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Sony Music SKU: 19439904551 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 15th October 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ben Harper Will to Live EP Rock And Pop | Virgin Records | Miscellaneous Released 3rd April 2009 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ben Harper Will to Live EP £14.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Virgin Records SKU: 5099926798219 Formats: Miscellaneous Released Date: 3rd April 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sun June Bad Dream Jaguar Rock And Pop | Run For Cover Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th October 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sun June Bad Dream Jaguar £25.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Run For Cover Records SKU: RFC265 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th October 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Koleżanka Place Is Rock And Pop | Bar None Records | 1LP Released 20th August 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Koleżanka Place Is £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Bar None Records SKU: BRN280LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 20th August 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nina Simone Here Comes The Sun Rock And Pop | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 2nd June 2014 £27.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Nina Simone Here Comes The Sun £27.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1037 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 2nd June 2014 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Trouble With Templeton, The Rookie Rock And Pop | Bella Union | 1LP, Includes CD Released 12th May 2014 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Trouble With Templeton, The Rookie £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Bella Union SKU: BELLA446V Formats: 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 12th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Elvis Costello Extreme Honey: The Very Best of Warner Brothers Years Rock And Pop | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 2nd February 2015 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Elvis Costello Extreme Honey: The Very Best of Warner Brothers Years £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1273 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 2nd February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bluetones, The Expecting to Fly (20th Anniversary Edition) Rock And Pop | 3 loop Music | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 18th May 2016 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bluetones, The Expecting to Fly (20th Anniversary Edition) £21.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: 3 loop Music SKU: 3RANGE51LP Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 18th May 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Of Montreal The Sunlandic Twins (Red/Orange Swirl Vinyl) Rock And Pop | Polyvinyl | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 19th April 2024 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Of Montreal The Sunlandic Twins (Red/Orange Swirl Vinyl) £32.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Polyvinyl SKU: PRC9554LP Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 19th April 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Rock And Pop Start again
