The lads at ATP/R have gone picture disc crazy of late. This week we've a couple of collectable lads in the form of the new Deerhoof 7" (more on that little beauty later) and this fancy deluxe tour single from Autolux. This is the second single from their LP 'Transit Transit' and it includes a bunch of bonus bits like postcards illustrated by artist Anthony Lister (also responsible for the disc art) plus the obligatory DL code with three bonus tracks (none of which I'm able to review but details can be found in the press release). I reckon 'The Bouncing Wall' and 'Census' are two of the strongest efforts on 'Transit Transit'. 'The Bouncing Wall' is a great interpretation of the dream pop formula beefed up with Flaming Lips style production. 'Census' is a favorite of mine due to it's blatant ripping off of Sonic Youth's 'Murray Street' period. A sweet 7" with enough bonus treats to keep all the lads happy.
7” vinyl picture disc limited to 500 copies Worldwide featuring artwork by Anthony Lister
Free 3 postcard set of Anthony Lister portraits
Includes download card for vinyl tracks plus 3 exclusive unreleased tracks.
To coincide with their tour, Autolux release the double A-side single The Bouncing Wall / Census throughout Europe on ATP Recordings.. This is the second single from the group's second album Transit Transit, the long-awaited follow-up to their critically acclaimed debut Future Perfect. The 7” picture disc single is limited to just 500 copies, and includes three postcards (see below) and a download card featuring a brand new instrumental track, 23 Watt Apple Juice and an additional remix of Kissproof by Bobby Evans (producer of Brother Reade and Widows). The singles will also be available as a standalone digital download.
Also included on the download card as a bonus track is Black Leaves a mix of a sound installation Autolux created for the Mark Walen (Kill Pixie) show, Paralleled Opposites at Merry Karnowsky Gallery in LA in November 2010. The exhibition was hosted by actor Tim Roth and included a 10-foot square tiled enclosure that could be entered through a single doorway. Within the confines of the installation, a more intimate multidimensional sensory experience was created by paintings installed alongside hand sewn paper botanicals, with this sound installation, Black Leaves, by Autolux in 3 parts amplified from 3 different directions.
The 7” artwork is from a photograph by Drew Reynolds that Australian artist Anthony Lister painted over. The set of three photographs originally appeared in the Filter Good Music Guide.
