What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Mr Productino feeling happy.

Iron and Wine are here with their ep The Sea & The Rhythm on Sub Pop (on vinyl for the first time with free download inside). These lot are my housemates favourites and listening to them now explains his bouts of seclusion and severe autistic social interaction. Sensitive Folk music making good use of acoustic guitar and banjo. The understated breathy melodies (Elliott Smith) create a mood of pretty twinkly lo-fi wonderment . 5 songs of simple maudlin beauty to help you forget a shit week of having to deal with stupid folk.

What the label says:

On vinyl for the first time ever. Iron & Wine's The Sea and the Rhythm was Sam Beam's second release on Sub Pop. Thus far, the CD version has scanned nearly 50,000 copies in the US

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
