{"product_id":"drop-vinyl-lp","title":"Drop: Vinyl LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince the release of The Master’s Bedroom Is Worth\nSpending a Night In announced a new loud era (and excepting a\nfew momentary detours into home-baked territory—Dog Poison\nand Castlemania, for example), Dwyer and company have pummeled\na bit harder each time out, cementing their reputation as a\nlive force to be reckoned with and leaving legions sweaty and\nbruised in the process. Late last year, after years of relentlessly\ntouring the world, the word got out… Dwyer’s moving to Los\nAngeles (fear not, still California!) and Thee Oh Sees are taking\na much-needed hiatus with a shifting of gears ahead and a new\nalbum on the way. This is that album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrop was recorded in a banana-ripening warehouse (no joke)\nwith hair-farming studio warlock Chris Woodhouse playing\ndrums; it’s also graced with the presence of talented gurus Mikal\nCronin, Greer McGettrick and Casafis adding horns and\nvocals. The result pushes the familiar polarities of the group farther\noutward than ever before. Opener “Penetrating Eye” might\nbe the heaviest Oh Sees song yet, “Transparent World” and “Put\nSome Reverb On My Brother” foam with seasick fuzz, and yet\nthe ballads, like the harpsichorded “King’s Nose” and the lush\nand stately closer “The Lens,” extend their oeuvre into mellotronic,\nfar-out pop with delicacy and grace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis schizophrenia heralds the man and the band into an unseen\nfuture in classic Dwyer fashion—restless energy harnessed\ninto exquisitely crafted jams, with an emphasis on the pensive\nand the paranoid in turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"Hiatus?
