The legendary era-defining split by Whirr and Nothing is finally back in print for the first time in almost a decade. The limited edition 10 year anniversary repress features an updated vinyl layout & a jumbo 20 pg booklet featuring never before seen photos of both bands by longtime friend Alvin Carrillo. This release is sold out from us, but we’re pleased to offer a retail exclusive variant on coke bottle clear vinyl w/ heavy green haze, limited to 570 copies.
The two exclusive songs from each band are perfected with the expertise of veteran producer Will Yip at the now famous Studio 4 Recording. Whirr’s signature atmospheric haze enthralls more than ever in what seems like a nine-minute dream. Their masterful control of soundscapes is matched only by an intensity that their shoegazing predecessors could only wish to achieve. Nothing’s contribution is a full-on aural assault: the two songs are aggressive, yet harmonious.The ongoing blown-out barrage lulls with only brief periods of quiet melody that hit like armistices. Yet, the songs are harshly beautiful in a way that perfectly captures the Philadelphia band’s definition of reality.
