Before we get to hear No Age’s LP follow-up to last year’s Nouns (our 5th favorite album of last year), we’ll be getting an EP entitled Losing Feeling, out October 6th on Sub Pop.
Losing Feeling is a new 4-song EP from our Southern Californian friends No Age. All four songs were written in the band’s practice space. “Genie” was even recorded there; the other three were recorded at Infrasonic Sound. All of it took place in Los Angeles. Losing Feeling will be available as a 12” vinyl EP and as magical, invisible, digital files, but not as a compact disc.
TRACKS
1. Losing Feeling
2. Genie
3. Aim at the Airport
4. You’re a Target
Sorry CD fans, digital and vinyl release only. The end is near for you guys anyway.
Lastly, if you’ve check out Pitchfork’s May interview with the band, it appears that the EP will have loops and samples:
RR: We’re writing songs that are maybe a little bit more left-field than some of the songs that were on the album. The EP will come out before the next record, which will be a good way for us to go through a lot of the sounds that we want to play. It’s more sample-based. We’re still using guitar and drums, but it’s just a way of working around it, working in more of a sort of…not synthetic, but more electronic-sounding thing. I don’t know how you can say “electronic” without it sounding like “electronic music”. But it’ll have loop- and sample-based arrangements.
Losing Feeling is out October 6th on Sub Pop.
