Sebadoh – Act Surprised (Color Vinyl LP)

Description

White vinyl LP housed in a full colour sleeve, with lyric insert and download. The inventors of lo-fi indie rock return with a 15-track blast of melodic melancholy, all delivered by the smudged middle finger of Dinosaur Jr original Lou Barlow_ ”The auteur of the subterranean lovesick blues.” Houston Press Their first studio album since 2013’s `Defend Yourself’ and their first release with Fire Records, Lou Barlow, Jason Loewenstein and Bob D’Amico return with a smorgasbord of beautifully dysfunctional tunes harking back to their finest college rock anthems. It’s Barlow at his introverted song writing best; matter-of-factly delivering a stream of self-questioning stories, punctuated by detuned guitars, spine-tingling time changes and throwaway one liners. A grainy post grunge postcard wrapped in bittersweet melodies with an aftertaste that’s pure heartbreak. More songs about growing up wrong for those who continue to act surprised at life itself – all illegibly handwritten and lovingly submitted to vinyl.
