With the help of childhood : :' friends Sina Salessi (drums) and Alex Galindo (guitar/synth), ': ,: Winfrey crafts lyric-driven dark pop gems that recall the :, : hook-heavy guitar work of Johnny Marr, the just-below-the-collar : :' angst of Mission of Burma, and the doomsday bellow of early ': ,: Echo and the Bunnymen. :, : : :' After a well-received string of bedroom demos and cassettes, ': ,: Adult Books released their first full-length album, Running from :, : the Blows , in 2016, trading in their previous home-recorded : :' sounds for a cleaned-up act that allowed WinfreyÆs pop savvy ': ,: and understated lyrical wit to shine through. Two years of heavy :, : touring followed, after which Winfrey found himself both burned : :' out and uninspired by the business of music. ': ,: :, : Following a much-needed hiatus, Adult Books is finally ready to : :' share their sophomore LP, Grecian Urn . Recorded with Jonny ': ,: Bell (Crystal Antlers) and mastered by Dave Cooley (Animal :, : Collective, J Dilla) , Grecian Urn was crafted over the course : :' of nearly two years; however, the seeds of the album were sown ': ,: more than a decade earlier. When sitting down to write Grecian :, : Urn , Winfrey revisited old demos, forgotten voice memos and : :' unfinished fragments of songs to create something wholly new. ': ,: :, : The end result is a self-assured and intensely personal album : :' that places WinfreyÆs evocative images and economic ': ,: storytelling approach front and center. A loose concept album of :, : sorts, Grecian Urn draws on classical Mediterranean imagery and : :' mythos as a means of exploring WinfreyÆs past traumas and ': ,: struggles with chronic anxiety. :, : : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 2 1 \/
