Description
Side A of Acute’s release Music for Neighbors contains their entire released output, the 4 songs from the 1984 EP The Explorers Hold and 1 song from the 1985 compilation Luxury Condos Coming to Your Neighborhood Soon, both on Coyote Records. About The Explorers Hold, Trouser Press, calling the Trypes “A loud psychedelic band”, wrote “The Explorers Hold is a placid, constantly shifting landscape of sounds. The four songs emphasize coloration, not beat; yet, for all its subdued calm, there’s an explosive tension bubbling underneath the music…The quieter songs, complete with woodwinds and keyboards, are hauntingly beautiful.”
Side B features a selection of never before heard demos from the earlier period of the band, who’s raw artfulness and sparse arrangements contrast the ornate production of the studio recordings. The LP comes with a download card that features an additional 7 songs (also available when purchased digitally) primarily recorded live at rehearsals at the legendary Maxwell’s club in Hoboken.
All of this is contained within a hand-letterpress-printed cardstock sleeve with a composite band photo attached to the front with homey photo corners. The LP and digital downloads also come with a deluxe booklet with photos and liner notes from Trypes John, Marc and Glenn as well as their first fan, Yo La Tengo’s Ira Kaplan.
