Released last November on CD with an accompanying book of lyrics/essay/artwork, Purgatory/Paradise won the band some of the best reviews of their illustrious career. Coming on the heels of Kristin Hersh’s Rat Girl, a stunning piece of literature, P/P heralds a creative renaissance from one of the most unique artists in the history of rock. Hersh has always written with a cinematographer s eye, the epitome of show v. tell, and P/P is a masterpiece of detail. Sweaty and noirish, it unfolds like a film. We’ve listened to it to probably 50 times here at HHBTM headquarters and we’re still finding a new perspective and meaning each time we listen. Throwing Muses has inspired this label in so many ways, from the people who run it to the bands who record for it, and we’re beside ourselves with delight to be bringing this record into the world in vinyl form. But while it’s a thrill to be involved with this record, it’s not nearly as thrilling as the album itself a masterpiece. You can keep your True Detective; we’ve got Purgatory/Paradise.

This LA-based power trio formed in 2003 by Kristin Hersh and Bernard Georges of Throwing Muses (with Rob Ahlers on drums), was named after the lowest note audible to human ears. The band was intended as an outlet for the noise/math rock pieces that didn’t fit the aesthetic of Throwing Muses or Kristin Hersh’s solo work. Their most successful and influential release, 2009’s Power + Light, is thirty minutes of non-stop music, a barrage of free-form sound that found the band challenging its own complex song structure. This year’s Bath White is their sixth release. Again, they’ve chosen to work with Los Angeles producer Mudrock, best known for his work with Godsmack. As Mudrock states, “These are the best musicians I’ve ever worked with, easily the most facile… they’re pros and they’re good people. MP3s emailed directly after purchase.
