Sleater-Kinney have released a new three-song EP called “Frayed Rope Sessions”. As the title suggests, it features alternate versions of tracks from “Little Rope”. Check it out, along with a mini-documentary featuring Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker,
Brownstein and Tucker recorded the “Frayed Rope Sessions” EP with producer John Goodmanson at the same studio where they made the “Little Rope”, album Flora Recording & Playback in Portland, Oregon. Proceeds from the Bandcamp sales of the EP will benefit Noise for Now.
Our “Frayed Rope Sessions” EP is out now on all streaming platforms, and the mini doc with each performance and song breakdown is up on our YouTube channel now. Check out the renditions of “Say It Like You Mean It,” “Hunt You Down,” and “Untidy Creature”: https://i.sleater-kinney.com/FRSessions
We wanted to step back into these songs, reimagine and revisit them, both for ourselves and for the listener. The different arrangements expose the songs anew, getting at their core or the outer edges. Frayed Rope was a way for us to travel through the songs and perhaps arrive at a different destination.
