WAM 10
Alec and the Eyesores are playing a bunch of dates in Europe right now as I write this. So that they would have some extra swag to sell, we licensed this out to a European label, who pressed these up for their tour.
You haven't truly seen that beautiful cover image until you've seen it in full lp size! Only 300 copies were made, we have only 30 of them, and there will not be a reprinting!
Alec K. Redfearn and the Eyesores
have been making uniquely rewarding music for over 15 years. They are one of the great uncategorizable, creative ensembles of our time, crafting a music that is distinctly theirs alone.
Many buzzwords have been used to describe the band's playing and Redfearn's composing and arranging, but they all fall short of conveying the dark beauty of the music and lyrics.
Sister Death
explores the mysteries of life, death, love, loss, creation and destruction, subjects that have informed Redfearn's songwriting since the early 90s. It is their 7th album, their most widely approachable release and features striking artwork and photographs!
The group's unmistakable sound is the result of Alec's songs, which have poignant melodies and lyrics filled with doom-laden imagery. These songs are performed by a band who use unusual instrumentation (male and female vocals, accordion, double bass, French horn, organ, drums, percussion, electronics + many musical guests) in interesting and creative ways. The music touches on elements of Americana, folk, European cabaret, minimalism, noise, and progressive rock, but it ultimately transcends all categories except for 'excellence'.
"I spent about 6 years writing for this record. I've trashed dozens of tunes along the way. This record is probably the most accessible of our releases so far. I spent a lot of time obsessing over kraut-rock, space rock and psychedelic rock in the past few years, so that influence is bound to be felt. I've tried to move away from the Eastern European/Gypsy sound...we've always tried to change things up as we went. Probably the biggest change in our sound is the addition of Orion on the Acetone Top 5 organ and vocals. These latest songs have been built around the keyboard and accordion, but it still sounds like us. Some things simply don't change. My melodic obsessions and idiosyncrasies remain imbedded in the music, and I suppose they always will be."
