#37: The Soundcarriers - Boiling Point
Released: 7"- 12 Sep 2012 ; Video Release - 21st Apr 2014
Highest UK Chart Position - Did not chart
Spotify streams to date: 149,946
First Heard - On re-release, 2014
I can remember Soundcarriers records from before this and, while they weren’t exactly bad, they did feel quite tame: coming off like reheated psychedelia, they had a distinct “Seekers joining a drug cult” vibe. In comparison, Boiling Point goes a lot harder, sounding more like they’ve taken over the movement completely and dumped acid in the local water supply. Their music was always built around revivalism, but this single gave their take on the late 60s more of a retrofuturist aspect, subtly throwing in some modern ideas which fit with the project so well that you might never notice the joins. The result is a kind of pop as head music, something catchy enough to be extremely addictive while having a kind of hypnotic whip-crack about it that could leave you staring blankly into space for hours at a time.
Once you get past the swirling drones of the intro, the drums are the thing that immediately jump out at you. Obviously it’s a kind of motorik beat but rather than recreating a live drum sound, it feels weirdly artificial, decaying in a uniform way as it drifts back under the mix, before cutting through hard again like something puncturing sheet metal. Alongside the loops of noise that form its nagging, almost ugly hooks, these elements have more in common with electronic music than a standard psych-pop act. But those 60s tropes are all here too, especially the coven-like male/female vocals and the heady musical swirl that threatens to swamp them: in what feels like an attempt to recreate the vibe of a trip itself, all of the song’s queasy energy and hurtling momentum is set against the sound of a choir singing calmly from the centre of the cyclone. While there has already been (and will continue to be) plenty of good old-fashioned nostalgia in this list, Boiling Point’s commitment to the bit does rather single it out. But its greatness comes from how it catches a band as they start to transcend their reference points, moving into more turbulent and interesting waters.

The Soundcarriers Reissue Highly Sought After OOP Celeste Album
Since stumbling upon The Soundcarriers in 2014 with their Entropicalia LP release to reliably excellent label Ghost Box I've been obsessed with their ethereal folk reminiscent of my all time favorite band Broadcast. Celeste marked their sophomore release in 2010, and I've been searching for a copy for >$200 for years, so this expanded repress is worth celebrating!
This is the second remastered and reissued album, with Entropicalia LP getting a small limited to 100 remaster in 2022 to coincide with the release of their new Wilds LP.
They have a devoted fan base and this one will go quickly. Dinked Edition is likely gone in 24hrs, and there's no pressing info on the regular black vinyl coming from Phosphonic, but probably also limited. This edition expands to include 5 bonus tracks featuring instrumentals and alternate mixes on side D.
The Soundcarriers: Celeste 2XLP Dinked edition 'Sunny-Side Up' orange-in-white vinyl. Remastered with newly designed artwork. Includes exclusive A3 poster and obi strip. Edition of 400 numbered copies. Pre-order now from a variety of UK record stores, I go with Norman Records for their reasonable US shipping, or Piccadilly Records
UPDATE: Wow, dinked is already sold out from Norman Records in under an hour (they still have the black edition) or grab Dinked from Piccadilly Records or where ever you can find it stat

A 2022-es lemezlistámmal szeretnék nagyon kellemes ünnepeket kívánni mind az 507 követőmnek! Gondolom, már hetek óta nagyon izgultok, mennek a komoly megfejtések, parázs viták ezerrel, hogy vajon ki lesz az első! Na, nem is húzom tovább az időt. Azért pár gondolat a listához. Szerintem fasza év volt ez új lemezek szempontjából. Jelentek meg király lemezek régi nagy kedvenceimtől, olyanoktól is, akikről már rég lemondtam, de volt egy pár szuper első album is, és ez utóbbi, mármint hogy eljutnak hozzám és szeretem őket, talán azt is jelenti, hogy még mindig nem vagyok egy megkeseredett öregember. Mondjuk nehezen is lehetnék, mert az elmúlt egy évben lett egy kurva nagy hip-hop arc a családban, akivel muszáj tartanom a lépést, hiszen én veszem neki a lemezeket, és ha már megveszem, akkor meg is hallgatom őket, és bár ott még nem tartunk, hogy a listámra felkerüljön mondjuk az új Denzel Curry vagy Kendrick, de azt kell mondjam, hogy egész jó zenék ezek, ha nem viszi túlzásba az ember. Mielőtt bárki megkérdezné, hogy akkor mégis mit keres a SZA lemez a listán, gyorsan elmondom, hogy az valószínűleg külső behatás nélkül is felkerült volna, mert simán jó zene. Mindenesetre az vicces, mármint nekem, nem hiszem, hogy más is viccesnek találja, hogy ezen a lemezen mindkettőnk kedvencei featelnek, így ez ilyen családegyesítő lemez is egyben! Phoebe Bridgers, Don Toliver és Travis Scott amúgy a featelő, ha még valaki olvasná esetleg. Na, tényleg befejezem, íme a lista! MUTATOM!

FearOfMu21c Index Page
It never occurred to me before I started that it might be handy to have a place where you could access all the #FearOfMu21c pieces individually.
