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 Lucette Deluxe Hotel Room Rock And Pop | Rock Creek Music | 1LP Released 17th May 2019 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lucette Deluxe Hotel Room £15.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Rock Creek Music SKU: RCM7003 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 17th May 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View XTC White Music Rock And Pop | Music On Vinyl | 1LP, 200g Released 24th June 2022 £21.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations XTC White Music £21.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: APELP101 Formats: 1LP, 200g Released Date: 24th June 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Codeine Dessau Rock And Pop | Numero | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 9th September 2022 £27.00 Select options Codeine Dessau £27.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Numero Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 9th September 2022 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Frank Turner Love, Ire & Song Rock And Pop | Xtra Mile | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 29th May 2018 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Frank Turner Love, Ire & Song £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Xtra Mile SKU: XMR135LPG Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 29th May 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View T.
