{"product_id":"altered-self","title":"Altered Self","description":"\u003cp\u003eBack in March 2020, singer songwriter Joe Gideon was mid-tour promoting his fresh album \u003ci\u003eArmagideon\u003c\/i\u003e when the pandemic brought his tour, along with the entire world, to a screeching halt. In the interim, Joe Gideon has been recording his follow-up album, \u003ci\u003eAltered Self\u003c\/i\u003e, released on Labelman.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAltered Self\u003c\/i\u003e is, like its predecessor \u003ci\u003eArmagideon\u003c\/i\u003e, produced by Bad Seed Jim Sclavunos. Gideon’s unique songwriting style and surreal poetic musings are very much in the fore, and although he and Jim are the sole instrumentalists, the album offers a menagerie of sounds including loopy synths, skronky guitars, sonorous bass, and lashings of bongo madness. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect to hear Joe yowling and howling at the moon, screeching like a bird, as well as summoning listeners to join his ‘disco church’ congregation... and for all you entomologists, Joe promises at least two songs about insects. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoe’s previous music project together with his sister Viva Seifert, Joe Gideon and the Shark, enjoyed some successful (international) tours in the past.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Labelman","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50415602499915,"sku":"2195140","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50415601418571,"sku":"2195139","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/GUEST_60ed399a-ae4a-46d2-a2ca-b0ebc305abbe_93b45791_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726691555","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/altered-self","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
