{"product_id":"graveyard-whistling","title":"Graveyard Whistling","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1996, the Old 97 s recorded \u003ci\u003eToo Far to Care\u003c\/i\u003e. It was their major-label debut after the band signed with Elektra Records. But rather than venture into some state-of-the-art studio in New York or LA, the band decamped to Village Productions in Tornillo, Texas, a remote facility in the middle of two thousand acres of pecan trees near the Mexican border. The sound that the group captured on \u003ci\u003eToo Far to Care\u003c\/i\u003e has remained a touchstone for them. We've always held that one up as the closest to sounding exactly like what sets us apart from the rest of the world, says Rhett Miller. And so when it came time for the Old 97's to record the follow-up to the highest-charting album of their career, 2014's \u003ci\u003eMost Messed Up\u003c\/i\u003e, producer Vance Powell brought up the idea of returning to Tornillo. We knew instantly that it was the perfect move, says Miller. The result is the eleven songs of \u003ci\u003eGraveyard Whistling\u003c\/i\u003e, the eleventh studio album from the Old 97's. Knowing that he wanted to consider as many options as possible, Miller handed over a huge pile of songs to the band; they whittled his thirty selections down to eleven. It grapples with spirituality and mortality, Rhett says. Our songs normally hide deeper meanings in the subtext, but they re more on the surface for this record.\" The trick the Old 97's have held on to is to take a song that may have a darker theme and present it as something to be screamed along to in a club. The emotional range and musical scope of\u003ci\u003e Graveyard Whistling\u003c\/i\u003e also benefits from the contributions of some remarkable co-writers including Brandi Carlile, Caitlin Rose, Nicole Atkins, and Butch Walker. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP - Translucent Red Vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP+ - Translucent Blue Vinyl.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ATO","offers":[{"title":"LP.","offer_id":50510403961163,"sku":"1004763","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP","offer_id":50510403535179,"sku":"1004762","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50510404190539,"sku":"1004761","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/213c376b-80ef-4da1-bad3-fa3134743f3f_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727874037","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/graveyard-whistling","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
