{"product_id":"796441801411","title":"Bowery Electric \"Beat\"","description":"\u003cp\u003e Double vinyl LP pressing including bonus track. The second album from New York City's Bowery Electric was released in late 1996, less than 15 months after their self-titled debut, but it found them having traveled light years musically in the interim, the group having seemingly decided to see how far they could take the guitar\/bass\/drums\/vocal setup into the atmosphere. Every aspect of their approach had been refined and focused: squalling, distorted guitars had been transformed into hazy, sensual sheets; the live drums transmuted to sampled rhythms more in debt to the blossoming downtempo sound of the day; bass lines reduced to their most basic diagrams; vocals submerged to become one with the narcotized fog of the instruments; even the lyrics were reduced to a few minimal lines used sparingly so as not to overshadow the dynamic. Beat is a lush and dense mantra of shadowy percussion, barely-there vocals and immersive drones that envelops the listener in an opiated blanket of sound. Includes the bonus track \"Low Density,\" not featured on the original U.S. release. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"(Kranky)","offers":[{"title":"VINYL","offer_id":44795208892591,"sku":"796441801411","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/8833\/2463\/files\/3477444_1.jpg?v=1736293647","url":"https:\/\/endofanear.sbs\/products\/796441801411","provider":"End Of An Ear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
