Thomas has toured throughout North America and Europe since his last record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe process of touring has had a marked impact on the development of these songs, as lyrics and structures have been scrapped, tweaked, and reworked in the live setting. As with previous albums, \u003cem\u003eLasted\u003c\/em\u003e was recorded and mixed in domestic isolation, this time throughout the rainy season in his current home of Portland, Oregon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the extent of the dreary climate's influence on the results is left to the listener's discretion, what is certain is that Thomas has a preternatural ability to weave disparate sound components into a cohesive sonic tapestry. He mixes a varied palette of field recordings and percussive elements along with melancholy melodies to create songs that recall - and are akin to - vespers of long-buried memories.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50436588634443,"sku":"331702","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/222afafd-0fe5-43c5-b30b-34663da0e94c_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726919248","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/lasted","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
