{"product_id":"water-5","title":"Water","description":"\u003cp\u003eFive years on \u003cem\u003eDehd's Water\u003c\/em\u003e stands as a monument in the ever-evolving indie trio's catalog. It's the record that took them out of the basement and onto festival stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLove is everyday magic. That's the impression you get listening to \u003cem\u003eWater\u003c\/em\u003e, the new album by Chicago trio \u003cstrong\u003eDehd\u003c\/strong\u003e. Veterans of Chicago's increasingly fruitful DIY scene, Jason Balla (Ne-Hi and Earring), Emily Kempf (Vail and formerly with Lala Lala), and drummer Eric McGrady share a strange and inexplicable chemistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLove rises up into the atmosphere like steam off a summer sidewalk and makes you wild. Love breaks your heart and you consider yourself lucky for it. Like water itself, it surrounds us, it supports us; it's what we're made of. It takes the shape of its container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe music is hazy and reverb-drenched, a scuzzy and hyped-up take on surf rock that could only come from the Third Coast. It's all animated by the red-lining feel-good spirit of the Velvet Underground's \u003cem\u003eLoaded\u003c\/em\u003e and the breezy melodicism of C86-era indie rock, with a dash of the Cramps' spooky-hop bop courtesy of McGrady's locomotive drumming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a clear-eyed look at the wild nature of everyday life that's been spun up in sugary sweet melodies and scratched-crystal sounds. More than anything, it's the embodiment of Dehd's m.o. from the start: As Kempf puts it, \"Work with what you have and make it magical.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fire Talk","offers":[{"title":"Clear LP","offer_id":50385303798091,"sku":"2196147","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50385303732555,"sku":"2196135","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_d4bed894_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726310897","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/water-5","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
