Through that imaginative label called Profound Lore Records we get to hear twelve ‘Rebellion Hymns’ (or twelve “epic odes to the bottle and wasteland America, with music steeped in American goth and folklore”), courtesy MAN'S GIN, captained by COBALT multi-instrumentalist Erik Wunder. Joined by multi-instrumentalists Josh Lozano and Scott Edward, ‘Rebellion Hymns’ were recorded and produced by Andrew Schneider at Translator Audio in Brooklyn, New York. The band's sophomore effort features photography and layout by Jimmy Hubbard and a formidable cast of guest musicians such as Jarboe (ex-SWANS), Bruce Lamont of YAKUZA, John LaMacchia of CANDIRIA, and COBALT co-conspirator Philip McSorley. Enjoy ‘Deer Head & The Rain’ off the record below, and visit Invisible Oranges here for ‘Sirens’. The rest of MAN'S GIN moving new music (or “murder balladry”), out June 25th, 2013, awaits your order here (Profound Lore store), on iTunes and Amazon:
Helmed by multi-instrumentalist Erik Wunder, MAN'S GIN was initially conceived ten (or so) years ago in Colorado, USA prior to moving to Brooklyn New York. Alongside Erik Wunder, his bandmates Joshua Lozano and Scott Edward all play a wide array of instruments; ‘Rebellion Hymns’ follows the band's debut opus ‘Smiling Dogs’, an ode to barren American landscapes (or “hymns paying homage to the bottle”), issued on Profound Lore in 2010 and available for our listening pleasure below:
