Ltd repress of 500 180g (this is important as previously it was not 180g). Before "Marry Me Tonight" there was Nostalgia. Released in 2007 on Fire Records to critical acclaim 'Nostalgia' marked the bands arrival on these shores with 7 slices of sublime tension bathed in reverb. All recorded with two microphones and an old tape deck. It was after hearing 'Nostalgia' that Rowland S. Howard became interested in HTRK, eventually going on to produce their forthcoming debut album . HTRK (formed 2003) are a mysterious three-piece from Melbourne who reside in Berlin and London. Inspired by the sounds and images of David Lynch, The Birthday Party and electronic artist Pita. Says Nigel, "We ran through our set and the performance was uncanny we called it Nostalgia because of our hatred of bands and fans who suck the past dry, as well as our own guilty nostalgia for the nihilistic energies rampant in the 80s underground, and the strange role that the Tarkovsky film Nostalgia played in the earliest days of the band's creation up in the Macedon hills. It is in many ways our definitive introductory statement."
