What the label says:

Following the unanimously excellent praise foisted upon their self-titled debut album released late 2007, LA-based noiseniks HEALTH return with the release of a limited edition MLP through Tough Love Records.  Book-ended by the original versions of album tracks “Triceratops” and “Lost Time”, the record also collects together a number of remixes that firmly establish the dancefloor potential of HEALTH. Sharing a lineage with the percussive impulses of Drums Not Dead-era Liars and the almost ambient freakouts of early Black Dice, HEALTH display a willingness to stretch out their sound and discover new sonic palettes rich in texture and rhythm. The remixes here play testament to this experimental tendency, serving to re-contextualise the band’s approach while bringing them to a new audience. Far from the po-faced elitism which befalls many similar acts, their self-acknowledged DISCO incarnation reveals the playful and universal appeal of the band, as at home on the dancefloor as they are atop critics’ end-of-year lists.   With only 500 copies pressed and the band’s star firmly in the ascendancy, it’s sure to establish itself as a collector’s item.  “Faster and smarter than scientists once imagined, [Triceratops] lurches off in new directions several times over the course of about three minutes” Pitchfork / “The players are human, even if the world they raised seems alien, and the rhythms they make are innate as pulses”  Drowned In Sound, Top 50 album of 2007 /  “The drums are insane. They are right there in your face going, “Hey, remember drums? You forgot that drums are magical, didn’t you? Ha!””VICE / tracklisting:1. triceratops 2. triceratops (acid girls rmx b) 3. lost time (c.l.a.w.s. rmx) 4. triceratops (acid girls rmx a)  5  lost time (pictureplane rmx) 6. triceratops (cfcf rmx)   7. lost time

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.
