{"product_id":"long-hair-in-three-stages","title":"Long Hair In Three Stages","description":"\u003cp\u003eU.S. Maple's first album, before they fell all apart on \"Sang Phat Editor\". This is the album that \"rocks\". Disjointed machinations, poppy locksteps and jarring sideways excursions all leading down a path to nowhere's-ville. Engineered by Jim O'Rourke with a cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePressed on Muleta Maroon Colored Vinyl LP includes a vinyl-only bonus track plus a Two-Sided Footlong OBI and Lyric Sheet. In high school, the members of U.S. Maple never said a word to anyone. And although this had disastrous results (stolen shoes, constant de-pantsing, gum in the hair, etc...), a fire was burning inside each one of them. A beginning was struck in Chicago, early in 1995. The four met near the corner of Grand and Western Avenues to devise a working method for reorganizing rock and roll, keeping what was felt to be it’s most important core elements. The mumblings are slick. The melodies are souped-up and soured. The drums are spastic bursts of laughter, rocket fuel and confetti. It is fronted by a singer who reminds one or the other of Kevin Costner's stoner bro. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 7” single and a version of AC\/DC’s Sin City are the first to be recorded. U.S. Maple’s debut full-length, \u003cem\u003eLong Hair In Three Stages\u003c\/em\u003e was recorded late in 1995 with Jim O'Rourke at Solid Sound Studios in Hoffman Estates, Illinois. This was Jim's first legitimate recording session with a rock and roll band. The album receives critical acclaim. Soon thereafter, U.S. Maple find themselves flying coach to Deutschland for a European tour. The extensive six-week tour spans 12 countries and includes a Peel Session for the BBC's John Peel Show. More history is made. \u003cem\u003eLong Hair In Three Stages\u003c\/em\u003e goes on to be ranked #85 on the Alternative Press “90 Greatest Albums of the '90s” list.
