{"product_id":"eyelids-colossal-waste-of-light-vinyl-record","title":"Eyelids - Colossal Waste Of Light - Vinyl Record","description":"Limited clear with purple smoke colored vinyl LP pressing. Includes digital download. A Colossal Waste of Light does an excellent job of framing the quintet as one of today's most compelling purveyors of lopsided guitar pop workouts and earworm-laden vocal melodies. It also proves that great guitar pop can still evoke favorites from a glorious past - the penetrating moodiness of XTC's Black Sea, or R.E.M.'s Fables of the Reconstruction, comes to mind - while refusing to waste time on idle nostalgia. On their 4th full-length album (but 17th vinyl offering if you include previous 7\"s and EPs) the Portland, OR band also rediscover the beauty of firsts. A Colossal Waste of Light marks the first time the band wrote songs remotely (\"it ended up being fun \u0026amp; weird to send out a very simple version of a song and see who came back first with another part for it\", John Moen looks back), their first reunion at the Destination: Universe studio post-isolation, and their first batch of melodious new tunes since The Accidental Falls, the band's 2020 project with poet, lyricist and Tim Buckley collaborator Larry Beckett (an extra-ordinary pairing that allowed Eyelids' two frontmen\/tunesmiths, Chris Slusarenko and John Moen, to find a new, multilayered appreciation for the art of songcraft).","brand":"Rock Band Merch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52245563343079,"sku":"JBTC224.1","price":36.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.triathletestore.com\/products\/eyelids-colossal-waste-of-light-vinyl-record","provider":"Triathlete Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
