{"product_id":"6-lenins","title":"6 Lenins","description":"\u003cp\u003eSix Lenins, the third album release from \u003cstrong\u003eThe Proper Ornaments\u003c\/strong\u003e, sees the band master their seemingly effortless but finely-wrought sound as their songwriting prowess refuses to plateau. Fresh from a US tour in Autumn last year, the London jangle pop group led by \u003cstrong\u003eJames Hoare\u003c\/strong\u003e (also of \u003cem\u003eUltimate Painting\u003c\/em\u003e \/ \u003cem\u003eVeronica Falls\u003c\/em\u003e) and \u003cstrong\u003eMax Claps\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eToy\u003c\/em\u003e) went into \u003cstrong\u003eJames'\u003c\/strong\u003e home studio in Finsbury Park, London and made their finest recordings to date on a newly-installed 16 track Studer machine - joined by \u003cstrong\u003eDanny Nellis\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eCharles Howl\u003c\/em\u003e) on bass and \u003cstrong\u003eBobby Syme\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eWesley Gonzalez\u003c\/em\u003e) on drums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHaving escaped deep, twisting tunnels of illness, divorce, and drug abuse to release their second record in January 2017, it's unsurprising they sound sunnier this time around. What their supremely melodic work suggests is a nonchalance or naivety but is in fact an expensively bought slice of coherence and clarity within a constantly shifting backdrop to their lives and landscapes. The band exists as an unassuming and resilient organism in a fiercely competitive, trashed environmental niche.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout their years of hard-edged music industry Darwinism, they've shown longevity and growth scuttling from the wreckage of their previous guitar bands to become one united organism. The speed with which \u003cem\u003eSix Lenins\u003c\/em\u003e was made suggests the two songwriters managed to keep a keen focus on what they wanted to achieve, further finessing the balance of conflict and collaboration that lends their sweet, succinct tunes their nervous energy. Well-crafted songwriting and a controlled sonic despite a zealous analogue sensibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe opener \"\u003cem\u003eApologies\u003c\/em\u003e\" sets out stridently and the mood and momentum, even as we weave through some more sombre moments, never dips before soaring with the Velvets-y propeller riff of live favorite \"\u003cem\u003eIn the Garden\u003c\/em\u003e\" to end the record. LP - Black Vinyl. LP+ - Limited Transparent Vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tapete","offers":[{"title":"LP.","offer_id":50471994360139,"sku":"1056579","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50471994458443,"sku":"1054914","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP","offer_id":50471995212107,"sku":"1054915","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/0abd064b-ef37-4774-a975-30f3157bf99f_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727414066","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/6-lenins","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
