The Australian music label, Hidden Shoal Recordings, today announced the release of the new mini album Foregone Conclusion by Japanese project The Retail Sectors.
Layering manipulated guitars, bass, drums and electronics to create compelling, melodic instrumentals, Foregone Conclusion frequently threatens to spiral out of control, yet like an exquisite train wreck holds the listener rapt. From the elegiac ‘Beauty of the Depression’ to the bit crushing Yaporigami remix of ‘The Dread’ The Retail Sectors create inventive and utterly engaging instrumental rock. Other highlights include the Maps and Diagrams remix of ‘The Decadence’ which strips the original back to bone and covers it in a firm coat of gas and dust. Headphone Science remix ‘The Longing Song’ and turn it into an utterly charming and gorgeously romantic wedding waltz for drunken robot lovers. – Press Release Excerpt
Foregone Conclusion is available now through all good digital music stores including iTunes, eMusic, Amazon as well as the labels own store. For all store links and to preview the album in full hear over to the HSR Store. Download a full press release here.
