Califone's third album 'Heron King Blues' is back on vinyl for the first time since it sold out quickly upon release in 2004. Heron King Blues is pressed on high quality virgin vinyl and packaged in an LP jacket with fully artworked inner sleeve. Included for the first time is a free download coupon. For this recording the band set out to make a record like Captain Beefheart's Mirror Man, entering the studio with a blank canvas and laying things down quickly. The resulting songs combine the bands more pop-oriented qualities alongside their more spaced out ethereal thoughts; these most often found on their Deceleration releases available on the bands own label, Perishable. The resulting sessions led to songs that were improvised or written immediately before recording, and within days a series of raw, live recordings had been completed. From there the initial recordings were chopped up, mixed around, and reassembled into the final product: a beautifully lush and patient masterpiece.
