Recorded at Asheville, North Carolina’s Drop of Sun Studios with producer Alex Farrar (Wednesday, Indigo De Souza), the recordings soar with searing guitars and an unshakeable rhythm section. “I tried the quiet thing on the last album and I realized there's definitely two parts of me: I like really heavy music, and I like really gentle music,” says Giannopoulos. “The two albums I listened to the most while we were in the studio were Leonard Cohen’s Songs From a Room and Hum’s Downward is Heavenward.” This contrast between quiet and loud exists throughout Disaster Trick but it's\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e animated by stark emotion and straightforward, timeless songwriting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDisaster Trick feels like a creative reset.

Here, everything felt purposeful.” With newfound energy, the band revisited old, unfinished material like “Gates of Heaven,” which dates back nearly a decade. Originally written during a period Giannopoulos describes as full of immaturity, he sings, “I am late to work again \/ I’m always missing something \/ when I walk out the door.” By focusing on a mundane moment, he highlights how self-defeating behaviors can linger.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the band, the album marked an opportunity to strip down their songwriting to the essentials: urgent, accessible arrangements full of catharsis. “This album helped me realize that a lot of the time, simplicity is the answer,” says Giannopolous. Lead single “Wink,” captures this perfectly. When Giannopoulos sings over hushed guitars, “And your arms have never looked \/ More empty than they do from here,” his delivery exudes a remarkable earnestness. As the track hits a boiling point in its thunderous chorus, it's disarmingly raw. Other songs like “Today’s Iconoclasts” are imbued with wry humor, referencing both “the Amazon Basics Bible” and playing “fuck, marry, kill” in consecutive verses.

The gentle vocals sit up front, often buoyed by fragile guitar lines and a simple but steady beat, and ample space is left for production flourishes like distant laughter, chopped up samples, and pitched squeals to ping around the listener’s ears. “We very much have a 'throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks' approach,” explains Lam. “We focus a lot on how an element sounds, rather than what an element is–if there's a guitar part that’s not quite working, rather than try a different guitar effect or amp sound, we're more likely to replace it with a keyboard, or a sample. A 'sound' is just as important as a 'part' to us, and I think that’s how a lot of electronic producers think.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvery sound on Seashell Angel Lucky Charm feels precise and intentional, making the earcandy choruses on tracks like “Fear” and “El Oh Ve Ee'' feel like expertly placed moments of guitar pop bliss. These two songs show Armlock’s savvy with harmony as they use octaves of angelic sounds to stretch a simple one-word chorus until it soars with meaning. Throughout Seashell Angel Lucky Charm, guitar is used sparingly and thoughtfully–more like a tool in Armlock’s belt rather than the primary songwriting vessel. On “Godsend” an airy acoustic provides the sturdy foundation, ushering the groove forward with uncomplicated chord progressions and leaving the focus on Lam’s voice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArmlock’s sound at times recalls Pinback’s lean alternative, Alex G’s adventurous indie, or the wave of mysterious-yet-endearing genre-bending music coming out of the UK from label’s like Dean Blunt’s World Music or Vegyn’s PLZ Make It Ruins. Album opener “Ice Cold” provides a perfect entry point into Armlock’s world and their skill with coalescing disparate influences. One trap beat away from a Bladee track, the song begins with robotic voices reminiscent of Boards of Canada and evolves into the meditative warmth found in Adrianne Lenker’s more lo-fi work.

The gentle vocals sit up front, often buoyed by fragile guitar lines and a simple but steady beat, and ample space is left for production flourishes like distant laughter, chopped up samples, and pitched squeals to ping around the listener’s ears. “We very much have a 'throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks' approach,” explains Lam. “We focus a lot on how an element sounds, rather than what an element is–if there's a guitar part that’s not quite working, rather than try a different guitar effect or amp sound, we're more likely to replace it with a keyboard, or a sample. A 'sound' is just as important as a 'part' to us, and I think that’s how a lot of electronic producers think.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvery sound on Seashell Angel Lucky Charm feels precise and intentional, making the earcandy choruses on tracks like “Fear” and “El Oh Ve Ee'' feel like expertly placed moments of guitar pop bliss. These two songs show Armlock’s savvy with harmony as they use octaves of angelic sounds to stretch a simple one-word chorus until it soars with meaning. Throughout Seashell Angel Lucky Charm, guitar is used sparingly and thoughtfully–more like a tool in Armlock’s belt rather than the primary songwriting vessel. On “Godsend” an airy acoustic provides the sturdy foundation, ushering the groove forward with uncomplicated chord progressions and leaving the focus on Lam’s voice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArmlock’s sound at times recalls Pinback’s lean alternative, Alex G’s adventurous indie, or the wave of mysterious-yet-endearing genre-bending music coming out of the UK from label’s like Dean Blunt’s World Music or Vegyn’s PLZ Make It Ruins. Album opener “Ice Cold” provides a perfect entry point into Armlock’s world and their skill with coalescing disparate influences. One trap beat away from a Bladee track, the song begins with robotic voices reminiscent of Boards of Canada and evolves into the meditative warmth found in Adrianne Lenker’s more lo-fi work.

The band decamped at Headroom Studios in Philadelphia, PA, as well as the same Ferndale, NY house where they made their debut LP, 2021’s New Music and Big Pop (which drew critical acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork, Stereogum, Billboard, Paste Magazine, and many more) with the intention of making one album, but creating enough material for two. “The longer we spent in the studio, the more songs Michael wrote and we fleshed out together,” explains Sebastiano. “Since we were creating music with no end-date in sight, there was a certain aura of playfulness and experimentation inherent in our sessions.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThat feeling of openness became the key to Pick Me Up, Turn Me Upside Down.

'There’s a great compilation called ‘The Count’s Countdown’ where Count plays a radio host and is just playing music from all over the show and it’s so unpredictable.

The band decamped at Headroom Studios in Philadelphia, PA, as well as the same Ferndale, NY house where they made their debut LP, 2021’s New Music and Big Pop (which drew critical acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork, Stereogum, Billboard, Paste Magazine, and many more) with the intention of making one album, but creating enough material for two. “The longer we spent in the studio, the more songs Michael wrote and we fleshed out together,” explains Sebastiano. “Since we were creating music with no end-date in sight, there was a certain aura of playfulness and experimentation inherent in our sessions.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThat feeling of openness became the key to Pick Me Up, Turn Me Upside Down. Another Michael’s core sound–ultra-catchy melodies delivered through inventive chord progressions, lush arrangements, and Doherty’s distinctive voice–is still present, but the record features new ingredients that push the music into unexpected directions. “I think the idea of a good song is always changing for me,” Doherty says. “The creative processes or personal listening experiences I’ve had are always meant to give me a deeper understanding of that.” \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe album draws on a wide range of influences, from clear cut classics like The Beatles, to contemporary luminaries like Alex G, to the unexpected, like a strong inspiration from Sesame Street. “You can tell the musicians who worked on the show were given so much freedom because the songs go to so many places,” explains Doherty. 'There’s a great compilation called ‘The Count’s Countdown’ where Count plays a radio host and is just playing music from all over the show and it’s so unpredictable. All of that encouraged me to keep the songwriting as free and unpredictable as we could...'\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Another Michael\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : Run For Cover Records\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCAT No : \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eRFC261lp\u003c\/p\u003e"}

But despite the album’s preoccupation with solitude, Antarctica is songwriters Jarett Denner and Dan Poppa’s most collaborative work to date–and it’s also their best.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFormed while the duo was still in high school, waveform* began as an exercise in Poppa and Denner’s shared musical taste. The two bonded over their love of raw-yet-songwriterly music: “Alex G, Teen Suicide, the whole Orchid Tapes scene was really influential to us. We started to figure out that you could record music on the iPhone or laptop and it could actually be listenable,” Poppa explains. They honed their recording and writing skills over the years, and began applying their homemade execution to hazy shoegaze, off-kilter slowcore, hushed dream pop, and more. As the band continued to grow, the current era of streaming internet discovery allowed listeners to stumble across their ever-growing discography, and in 2020, the release of Last Room caught the attention of Run For Cover Records–another common love between the two young songwriters. “We were really revolving around RFC from the start,” says Denner. “We were just so invested in all the music and the lore around the label, so when they got in touch with us it was beyond exciting.” The label reissued Last Room in 2022 and waveform* continued to pick up steam, including performing with kindred spirits like Feeble Little Horse, They Are Gutting A Body of Water, and Momma.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAll the while, Poppa and Denner were writing songs that would become Antarctica–but this time something was different. “With our other records we usually would write and record really individually,” explains Denner. “We’d pretty much just make the songs ourselves and there was a lot of distinction between my songs and Dan’s songs. But this time we were together a lot more and made a lot more decisions together–we even played a lot more on each other’s songs.” It might seem unusual for a songwriting duo with numerous albums under their collective belt to only recently start actually writing songs together, but it’s a testament to Poppa and Denner’s uniquely compatible creativity that their work has always been so cohesive. And now, Antarctica is the product of a true songwriting team. “I think it’s just more gratifying for the both of us,” Poppa says. “In the past we’d just accept that anything the other was doing was the way it was, but now we’re much more willing to try each other’s opinions and ideas.” The result is a refined musical extension of the two, an album full of striking moments that unfurl so organically that they feel akin to chemical reactions.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAntarctica sounds like waveform* fulfilling their potential, going beyond just the sum of their influences and creating a distinctive sonic identity of their own. Each song overflows with mood and atmosphere, while Poppa and Denner lean into their impeccable knack for melody and hooks. “We sort of have this idea of vibe songs vs. songwriting songs,” says Denner. “We had this tectonic shift where we started prioritizing songcraft more. I think as time went on we just got more serious about the songwriting.” Poppa adds, “I think we’ve always liked that sort of side of us and wanted to do more of it, but now we’re really achieving it.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis approach is apparent on songs like opener “Lonely,” a slowburn of lush acoustics and gentle melodies that invite the listener into the world of Antarctica. The track also plainly introduces the album’s themes, as well as waveform*’s ability to compellingly blend diary-like directness with surreality. “I think all of the songs deal with isolation,” says Denner. “My songs tend to be more direct, but then Dan’s have more of a dissociative, impressionistic vibe to them. It’s definitely a distinct difference in the way we get the same ideas across.” The album is populated with images of vastness–oceans, snowy tundra, the dark itself–and the lyrics work hand-in-hand with the music to create a dense feeling of emotional remoteness. On songs like “Freak Me Out” or “Firework,” waveform* demonstrate their mastery of dynamics with tender acoustic strummers that unexpectedly give way to blasts of fuzzed out guitars and pounding drums. Elsewhere mid-album standout “In My Drink” shows that the duo are just as capable of creating catharsis even without the huge guitars. The song sprawls out over five and a half minutes, with its stunning melodies drawing out more and more emotion with each chorus.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAntarctica closes with “Orphan Child,” another sprawling track that slowly transforms from dreamy acoustic balladry into a colossal conclusion of blown-out guitars. The song wraps around the listener like an almost otherworldly presence, and perfectly encapsulates what waveform* does best: capturing a sense of deep melancholy that’s also comfortingly familiar, like a longing that may ache but also provides a sustaining reminder of the one you’re missing.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"small-12 medium-12 large-12 columns\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-column\"\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirework\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntarctica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarijuana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn My Drink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreak Me Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBallroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOcean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrphan Child\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : waveform*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : Run For Cover Records\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2023-05-01T15:57:52+09:00","created_at":"2023-05-01T12:45:21+09:00","vendor":"Tobira Records","type":"","tags":["folk \/ left-field pop","lp","run for covers"],"price":358000,"price_min":358000,"price_max":358000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44203516100858,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"waveform* \/\/ Antarctica LP [COLOR]","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":358000,"weight":430,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/an1_a3f766d1-5e9c-42a3-b79c-3cc94af949b5.jpg?v=1682912723"],"featured_image":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/an1_a3f766d1-5e9c-42a3-b79c-3cc94af949b5.jpg?v=1682912723","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":31903490801914,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":700,"width":700,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/an1_a3f766d1-5e9c-42a3-b79c-3cc94af949b5.jpg?v=1682912723"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":700,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/an1_a3f766d1-5e9c-42a3-b79c-3cc94af949b5.jpg?v=1682912723","width":700}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003eアメリカ・コネチカットのスローコアデュオwaveform*が、2023年5月に同国ボストンの\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRun For Cover Recordsからリリースしたレコードです。\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eスローコア〜インディーロック〜ドリームポップ10曲を収録。ダークブルー盤です。\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=2671944618\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eレーベルその他作品は\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/collections\/rfc\"\u003eこちら\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\/\/\/ Click \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/collections\/rfc\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e to see more Run For Cover Records releases available at Tobira. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e---------------------------------------\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product_info\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePressed on 12\" dark blue vinyl. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRun For Cover Records:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Antarctica, the new album from Connecticut-based duo waveform*, is a meditation on isolation and loneliness, ten songs that sway between intimate sparseness and towering walls of guitar, each radiating a palpable sense of longing in every note.
