ALABASTER « Time To Get A Job »
[Reju068 - 12" LP, 300 copies]
October 2017
First full-length by French act (from Lyon) ALABASTER, whose line-up includes former and current members of Overmars, Sofy Major, Geneva and Kiruna. Noise hardcore in the way of bands like Deadguy, Kiss It Goodbye or Unsane.
« Time to Get a Job » is also what people often tell you when you explain that you’re in your thirties and still spending hours in rehearsal with your indie noise-hardcore band, as well as hours on the road to get to bars and clubs where playing a thirty-minutes set feels like Christmas (if Christmas’s your thing) when more than 10 people attend…. Well, thanks for the advice people, but the guys in ALABASTER actually (almost) all got a job now… They’re just not ready to give up on practicing, hitting the road and performing, especially at a time when their first album is finally coming out.
Co-released With Bigoût and Antena Krzyku.
All songs composed, arranged and performed by ALABASTER. Except track 10 by Alabaster, Pierre Bozonnet, Guillemette Serve & Camille Henner.
Recorded and mixed by Laurent Saussol.
Additional recording on track 10 by Bruno Germain.
Mastered by Uhmair Chaudhry.
