While the band were living and working at Rubin’s studio mansion, a fire broke out, which resulted in the band losing all of their gear, some of their demo recordings, and nearly their lives as well. A burnt guitar plucked from the debris is on the album’s cover. The resulting album was inspired by some of their earliest influences – The Velvet Underground, The Stooges, Can. It spins tales of passion and loss, carried on a fluid, moody throb. Undulating, hypnotic rhythms twine around melancholy lyrics which examine life at a primal level, as ethereal electronic effects play counterpoint to earthquake reverberating guitars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFIRST TIME ON STAND-ALONE VINYL!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is a double black LP with a gatefold sleeve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes 4 previously unreleased tracks*\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1.
