': ,: :, : As a result, when founding members and primary songwriters Rocky : :' Tinder and Eric Phipps returned home at the tail end of the ': ,: year, they immediately dove into the process of working on a new :, : album in order to capitalize on the creative energy that had : :' been steadily amassing during their days, weeks, and months on ': ,: the road. :, : : :' Says Phipps of that moment in time, "I holed up in a tiny room ': ,: within a friend's warehouse and began knocking out as many :, : different songs as I could. I tried not to look back, just : :' wanting to explore everything I could possibly create. I ': ,: started to feel like I was becoming a Kafka-esque insomniac :, : musical novelist at one point." : :' ': ,: The reference to the European writer is an apt one for a band :, : that has always imbued its disarmingly off-kilter pop with : :' tinges of paranoia and surrealism (both lyrically and ': ,: musically), but even more fitting is the title of Wampire's new :, : record: Bazaar. : :' ': ,: Like the tantalizing blend of exotic treasures and captivating :, : sensations its namesake suggests, Bazaar continually offers : :' listeners a variety of unexpected and alluring sonic flavors ': ,: over the course of its nine tracks -- ranging from raucous riffs :, : (ôBad Attitudeö) to seductive sax (ôWizard Staffö) to charmingly : :' catchy choruses (ôThe Amazing Heart Attackö). ': ,: :, : As with their previous full-length Curiosity, Wampire recorded : :' Bazaar with trusted producer Jacob Portrait (of Unknown Mortal ': ,: Orchestra), though this time around the sessions took place at :, : The Museum, a studio in Brooklyn's Greenpoint neighborhood, and : :' were done directly to tape. ': ,: :, : Far from home once again, Tinder and Phipps used the city to : :' their advantage -- writing lyrics on the 40-minute bus ride to ': ,: and from their temporary residence in Bed-Stuy and rushing to a :, : shop down the street to buy a guitar -- one that looked and felt : :' like it had been buried in dust for decades and had just the ': ,: right analog sound -- as their allotted studio time was winding :, : down. : :' ': ,: Another important change was the addition of touring drummer :, : Thomas Hoganson to the recording and songwriting process. Though : :' Tinder and Phipps had previously sought to minimize ': ,: distractions in the studio by just working with each other, :, : Hoganson's diverse musical abilities (in addition to drums, he : :' also plays piano and saxophone on Bazaar) made him an ideal ': ,: collaborator. :, : : :' And so, after a year spent in vans and on planes, in European ': ,: clubs, Australian beaches, and everywhere in between, Wampire :, : emerged with more confidence, a stronger vision, and what is : :' undeniably their best batch of songs to date.
