Breeze - Only Up [CD] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Only Up is the second Breeze album by producer and artist Josh Korody (Nailbiter, Beliefs). Enlisting a whirlwind of performances from Tess Parks, Cadence Weapon and an array of the Toronto music scene, including members of Orville Peck, Tallies, Vallens, Zoon, Sauna, Fake Palms, Rapport, Praises, Civic TV, Moon King, Blonde Elvis, For Jane, Ducks Ltd, TOPS and Broken Social Scene, Only Up sees Korody digging through and channelling three decades of anthemic British bands. From the angular guitars of late 70s post-punk (Gang Of Four, Wire), to the lush gloom of 80's electro-pop (Tears for Fears, OMD), with the dance floor psychedelia of the Manchester sound (Primal Scream, Happy Mondays), and through the late '90s and early 2000s post-punk / new wave revivalists. When originally tasked with making this album, Korody and his long time music collaborator Kyle Connolly (Orville Peck, The Seams) quickly threw down ideas in a session, however with Connolly embarking on a world tour, and with Korody's demanding schedule at his Candle Recording Studio, the project sat unattended. Somehow, by the time of the album's delivery deadline, Korody not only orchestrated a creative ensemble of friends and collaborators, he wrote, recorded and mixed the entirety of the album in two weeks without a single regret or compromise. "It was the best way I could have done it. A strict deadline to make decisions, move on and focus on things that matter the most. Every decision was made in that headspace. The ease of technology to endlessly tweak with, it sometimes can end up destroying records until there is no soul in it, no happy accidents and it's completely sterile. You can have a well produced record without going down that dark rabbit hole." Only Up is out 8/26 via Hand Drawn Dracula.
