lions at your door

The long-awaited debut EP for Australian band Lions At Your Door is finally out and it’s a very happening dancefloor filling indie-punk-jazz-rock recording which captures the raw energy of their live shows. Recorded at Sydney’s Linear Recordings (Teenager, Empire of the Sun, Lost Valentinos, INXS) the independently funded release was produced and mixed by the band themselves. Working with engineer Chris Vallejo, all tracks on the EP were recorded live to tape using analog recording equipment.

Apparently Beck wrote most of the Sea Change album after breaking up with a long-term girlfriend. I don’t wish ill on the guy, but if songs like this come out of his broken relationships, I hope it happens again.
