Preparation Age

Mike Adams At His Honest Weight rounds out 2015 with Preparation Age, a new 5-song one-sided LP on Burnt Toast Vinyl in conjunction with our friends at Sounds Familyre. It was recorded during the same sessions as a forthcoming 2016 full-length and serve as companion songs and a taste of what is to come. They build on the solidly crafted pop songs of 2014’s The Best of Boiler Room Classics through sonic experimentation and take the band’s sound into a hazier new territory combining influences from the synth-based rock of Wheat, Grandaddy, and Flaming Lips with Beach Boys inspired vocal harmonies. Throughout Preparation Age, Mike Adams manages to tell stories of forgotten friends and everyday people, turning fear and anxiety from the departed past into something pleasing and beautiful.

Preparation Age is presented in a limited vinyl-only release of 500 copies with the B-side featuring an etching and including a digital download code. This LP…Continue readingPreparation Age
