The prolonged lockdown endured in Melbourne forced The Stroppies to re-think their fast, off-the-cuff method of creation for their second studio album ‘Levity’. Unlike the lean, crisp jangle-pop of their 2018 debut ‘Whoosh!’, Angus Lord and co. add fuzz, distortion, tape manipulation and key modulation to make a darker, hazier product than before. An alluring sequel to one of the most delightful indie-pop debuts of the 2010s.
It’s a perfect time to pre order the special edition of “Levity” through that Stroppies channel. In Opaque white vinyl and w/ a bonus 7” (if that kind of thing is your bag…baby). If your in the US you can get a special edition version of the record through @roughtrade record stores and save on postage. Of course if you’d like to support your local indie store you can order the clear vinyl versions through participating retailers. Thanks heaps to all the kind words and support over this week. Looking forward to sharing the whole record with you.
Taken from the album, “Levity“, out 5th May 2022.
