This 12\" from Car Colors might be one of the most storied debuts in rock music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt starts with another band called the Wrens, who toiled in relative obscurity from their formation until the release of their third album, \u003cem\u003eThe Meadowlands\u003c\/em\u003e, in 2003, some 14 years later. Charles Bissell is the Wrens' former singer-songwriter-multi-instrumentalist-producer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover of the debut Car Colors single, \"\u003cem\u003eOld Death\u003c\/em\u003e\" (from his forthcoming album, due in early 2024) evokes its spirit one final time. Clocking in at over 7 minutes, \"\u003cem\u003eOld Death\u003c\/em\u003e\" is an unlikely A-side, but one that makes it clear that Charles has been working on this record for more than a decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou can hear what we've all been missing for the last 20 years, all of the Wrens earmarks and sonic peccadillos you adored, but distilled, matured, caramelised like a mole, through long gestation and layers of production and nuanced sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Absolutely Kosher","offers":[{"title":"Silver 12\"","offer_id":50395152712011,"sku":"2143764","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/0653225010011_cd4bbd55_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726456405","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/old-death","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
