{"product_id":"soil-2","title":"Soil","description":"\u003cp\u003eRubber Oh (Sam Grant) has returned with weirded-out psych project Rubber Oh and the bold new album \u003ci\u003eSoil\u003c\/i\u003e released on the Pigs, Pigs, Pigs, Pigs, Pigs, Pigs, Pigs,  collective imprint, Mr Medicine Records.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluding collaborations from Bristol’s Rozi Plain, London based Voka Gentle, and Newcastle artists Me Lost Me and Ceitidh Mac, the sophomore record offers a vivid journey through Grant’s otherworldly machinations.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSoil\u003c\/i\u003e picks up where 2021’s debut \u003ci\u003eStrange Craft\u003c\/i\u003e left off, presenting kaleidoscopic melodies floating above dense rhythms. It skirts a line between dark heavy riff and floating harmony. However, where the acclaimed \u003ci\u003eStrange Craft\u003c\/i\u003e was a focussed, at times minimal affair, \u003ci\u003eSoil\u003c\/i\u003e looks to break out into a vast filmic landscape. It is a record with a new found confidence in what Rubber Oh is, both thematically and sonically. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA major feature of this record is the arrangements Grant composed throughout for both choir and strings. There is imposed friction; the push and pull between the levity and delicacy of these voices and strings, rubbing up against the grit and distortion of the driving rhythm section - the music is once again built around Grant’s fuzzed-out, hard-panned basses. The unusual marriage of instrumentation here though creates an intriguing sonic space that feels both familiar and new at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mr Medicine Records","offers":[{"title":"Red LP","offer_id":50427055735115,"sku":"2206122","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/RUBBER_OH_-_SOIL_-_PACKSHOT_62dabc3e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726820992","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/soil-2","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
