Future Songs [LP] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Cranes is a dream pop/shoegaze band formed by siblings Alison and Jim Shaw who rose to stardom following a world tour with the Cure in 1992. After the influential Dedicated label folded in 1998 they went on a two-year hiatus after which they set up their own label Dadaphonic. Here, they released three studio albums between 2001 and 2008, of which this record is their first. Between 1986 and 1997 Cranes released a steady stream of records on Bite Back! And of course Dedicated, and when the latter folded, the Shaw siblings took a relatively long break from recording. Then, in 2001 they returned with a different bassist and drummer, their new Dadaphonic label and a fantastic new record to go along with it. A breathe of fresh air, Future Songs acts as a bridge between their somewhat brusque approach to shoegaze from the 90s and electronica-infused sound from the zeroes. A remarkable effort, especially considering the Shaws recorded almost everything on their own. Future Songs is available as a 25th anniversary edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on yellow marbled vinyl and includes an insert.
