Applause Cheer Boo Hiss: The Definitive

Applause Cheer Boo Hiss: The Definitive

ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2006, LAND OF TALK’S DEBUT EP APPLAUSE CHEER BOO HISS IS COMPRISED OF SEVEN ANGULAR, GUITAR-DRIVEN ROCK SONGS THAT TAKE SONIC CUES FROM ARTISTS RANGING FROM POST-HARDCORE ACTS LIKE FUGAZI TO SPACEY POP BANDS LIKE BROADCAST, CREATING A COLLECTION THAT CONTINUES TO GATHER URGENCY NEARLY TWO DECADES LATER. NOW, AFTER 18 YEARS, ITS MOMENTUM PERSISTS, AND THE EP IS POISED TO BE RELEASED ON SADDLE CREEK (US, CANADA) AND ONE LITTLE INDIE (EX-NORTH AMERICA) AS APPLAUSE CHEER BOO HISS: THE DEFINITIVE EDITION.

APPLAUSE CHEER BOO HISS: THE DEFINITIVE EDITION IS A COLLECTOR’S DREAM, WITH BONUS MUSIC SPREAD OUT ACROSS TWO LPS HOUSED IN A GORGEOUS GATEFOLD JACKET THAT FEATURES NEW AND UPDATED ARTWORK. THE FIRST LP FEATURES A REMASTERED AND EXPANDED 10-SONG VERSION OF THE ORIGINAL EP, ALONG WITH FIVE ADDITIONAL DOWNLOADABLE BONUS TRACKS OF LIVE MATERIAL AND REMIXES. THE SECOND LP FEATURES A REMASTERED VERSION OF L’AVENTURE ACOUSTIQUE, THE LIMITED AND ADORED 10-TRACK RELEASE FEATURING ACOUSTIC VERSIONS OF ALL SEVEN ORIGINAL APPLAUSE CHEER BOO HISS TRACKS AS WELL AS ACOUSTIC VERSIONS OF “YOUNG BRIDGE,” THE FUTURE LAND OF TALK TRACK “SOME ARE LAKES,” AND A COVER OF WINTER- SLEEP’S “WEIGHTY GHOST” - ALL ON VINYL FOR THE FIRST TIME. THIS IS LESS OF A NOSTALGIC VICTORY LAP, HOWEVER, THAN IT IS A MOMENTARY PAUSE TO APPRECIATE LAND OF TALK’S UNIQUE MUSICAL TRAJECTORY, AND ACKNOWLEDGE THE MYRIAD OF ARTISTS THAT POWELL HAS INSPIRED ALONG THE WAY, INCLUDING HAND HABITS, SYLVAN ESSO'S NICK SANBORN, RATBOYS' JULIA STEINER, SHARON VAN ETTEN, AND MANY MORE.

AMERICAN FOOTBALL VOCALIST/GUITARIST MIKE KINSELLA ALSO REFLECTED,“I LOVE THEIR VOICE—THE WAY THEY STRETCH NOTES AND SING BEHIND THE HITS ALMOST OFFHANDEDLY, LIKE THEY’RE SINGING TO/FOR THEMSELF INSTEAD OF AN AUDIENCE.” FITTINGLY, AS THE MONTREAL-BASED MUSICIAN’S EARLIEST RECORDINGS WERE CREATED FOR THEMSELF RATHER THAN ANYONE ELSE.
