<a href="https://www.roughtrade.com/us/music/amor-sinking-into-a-miracle">Rough Trade Exclusive Clear Vinyl with Exclusive Four-Track Bonus CD featuring the two previously vinyl-only 12"s Paradise and Higher Moment.</a>

The debut album from Glaswegians Richard Youngs (vocals), Michael Francis Duch (bass), Paul Thomson (percussion/drums) and Luke Fowler (synths/keys), is a playful and mysterious piece, spilling over with funky optimism and blissed out beats.

The strands of melody play and shift around as a dancing bass drags you on to the (surely) flashing dancefloor. Handclaps and percussion permeate throughout, embellishing the tracks with infectious accoutrement. The vocals have a face-to-sun euphoria. They call out while funk-synths whoop and thrumming drums rattle. The loops carry you along in a river of laidback shuffling carnival Afro-grooves.

An enveloping album splashed with new-age positivity, a clear-eyed glimpse of the future powered by mutant disco rhythms, plaintive piano and hypnotic mantras.

Albums of the Month - December 2018

Concocting a freshly strange blend of synth pop and damaged folk music, Grapetooth is a band from Chicago that consists of Chris Bailoni and Clay Frankel.

Back In Stock

Grapetooth's self-titled debut album. Available here on Rough Trade Exclusive White Colored 180 Gram LP, 180 Gram LP and CD.

Born out of a mutual love for ‘80s Japanese new wave, the weirdo sentimental pop of Arthur Russell, and a good bottle of cheap wine, the band’s ‘dance til you drop’ performances around Chicago are the stuff of legend, leaving venues with wine-stained floors and/or holes in the ceiling. Now the band’s highly anticipated debut album is ready to bring their mayhem to the masses.
