Despite the awful cover, the James Brandon Lewis will be getting lots of time from me this year. Probably the most interesting listen so far this year.
Hope no-one minds a bit of self-promotion but pre-orders have just gone up on Bandcamp for the new Spare Snare LP - the bands 12th overall, second recorded with Steve Albini and, most excitingly, first with me on bass!
Will he available from various other places too. Not sure on US situation but Rough Trade and Newbury did carry copies of the last album.
He's so impressive. He's got another couple of records at least coming out this year (a quartet and a quintet one), plus he's been in the studio recently with the Messthetics (Fugazi bassist and drummer plus guitarist) who are on this record so there could be even more. On top of that, he's a nice guy too. Hope this album lifts his profile even more.Despite the awful cover, the James Brandon Lewis will be getting lots of time from me this year.

The number of color variants of this over the years has to be into double digits by now (and somehow I own the ugliest one).

Fwiw, apparently not all of the samples have been cleared on some of the De La albums. I know for 3 feet high and rising, they had to get interpolations of the samples played by a bandso i can go on to sell off my vmp versions
He was in the room with us the whole time - came over to Edinburgh and recorded us in Rod Jones from Idlewild’s studio. Was a good experience, and he is entertaining company.Did you get to interact with Steve at all or was it a mostly virtual thing? I’ve enjoyed following him on twitter.
