Ester Drang : Goldenwest 2xLP

Burnt Toast Vinyl is proud to announce, in conjunction with Clerestory AV, the deluxe vinyl reissue of Ester Drang’s 2001 landmark album Goldenwest. Available on vinyl for the first time, the album was remastered from original tapes by Chris Colbert, cut to lacquers by Matthew Barnhart at Chicago Mastering, and pressed onto high quality vinyl by Gotta Groove Records in Cleveland. The double LP includes two previously unreleased bonus tracks and is packaged in a super thick high-gloss tip-on gatefold jacket. The record is available in three variants: green/yellow swirl vinyl, green/smoke swirl vinyl, and mixed (one of each). This is an extremely limited pressing, with each label having fewer than 50 copies of each variant available, and a small number of copies being distributed to independent record stores by Redeye Distribution. Purchase in the Burnt Toast Vinyl online store, Clerestory AV online store, or through the Burnt Toast Vinyl bandcamp site. Orders will ship for a release date of 04 September 2020.

The Danish noise rockers RING THEM BELLS are back with a more groovy, impertinent, and catchy expression than ever before. Think Primal Scream, Ride, and My Bloody Valentine meets the Rolling Stones, The Stooges, and The Byrds.

On Things That Come Slow the energy is focused in a short and tightly composition, where agile vocal harmonies weaves together on the top of a groovy beat with Indian percussion, psychedelic ’60s pop sounds, and an explosive guitar-driven chorus. What seems to be untamed and chaotic, nicely comes together in a danceable song with hooks. The force of RING THEM BELLS is that something magic and dangerous happens, when it all seems like it’s about to fall apart. With its ten…Continue readingRing Them Bells : Things That Come Slow LP
