{"product_id":"hundredth-faded-splendor-colored-vinyl","title":"Hundredth - Faded Splendor [Colored Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp\u003eHundredth have built a career on transformation, embracing change as their most defining trait. Over the past decade, the South Carolina-based band have forged a reputation for pushing boundaries, evolving their sound with each new album as if stepping into a new world. From their ferocious hardcore roots to the lush, immersive shoegaze of RARE-which landed on Stereogum's 50 Best Albums of 2017 list- to the shimmering, cinematic synthpop of Somewhere Nowhere, each release has felt like the birth of a different band. Hundredth have explored a kaleidoscope of genres with unrelenting curiosity. Each era truly feels like a new identity-sometimes bruising, sometimes beautiful, but always unrelenting in it's desire to move forward.Now, after five years in the dark, they return with Faded Splendor-a vivid collision of post-punk urgency and widescreen indie rock. The album draws from decades of alternative influence: the angular pulse of early-2000s revival, the brooding intensity of '80s UK post-punk, the anthemic shimmer of '90s alt-rock, and the atmospheric drift of dream pop-with a touch of alt-country flickering in the margins, perhaps just a symptom of growing up in the South. But it isn't nostalgia-it's propulsion.The record opens with Curve, a soaring, emotionally charged track that sets the pace, with a lush, expansive sound reminiscent of Silversun Pickups or the atmospheric qualities of early-'00s indie rock. \"Big Love\" follows, carrying the weight of widescreen power-pop with an infectious, shimmering energy. \"Dark Side,\" the lead single, earned praise from Stereogum, who likened it's energy to early Bloc Party, highlighting Chadwick Johnson's vocal \"burly intensity\" over a hook that's \"clean and big.\" \"All The Way\" channels anthemic dance-punk and widescreen indie, with a stadium-sized energy driven by a pounding 4\/4 pulse and angular guitars. \"Blitz\" delivers a tightly wound, post-punk anthem-relentless and cathartic, landing somewhere between Placebo, Interpol, and the explosive fervor of early Arcade Fire. \"Waste\" grinds through a wall of blown-out guitars before collapsing into a chaotic swirl of samples and turntables-one of the album's most unpredictable moments. \"Glimmer\" follows like the end of a coming- of-age film-euphoric, nostalgic, and wide open. Then \"Dazzle\" pulls the rug again, blending alt-country vocal inflection with dream pop textures that recall the melodicism of Dizzy Up the Girl-era Goo Goo Dolls or early Third Eye Blind. The closer, \"Faded Splendor,\" slyly leads the listener to the edge-then freefalls into ambient jazz. It feels less like a curtain call and more like a cliff dive.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark Side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll The Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlitz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlimmer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDazzle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaded Splendor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3760420426633\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Diggers Factory\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.7.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vinyl Revival Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53234912198816,"sku":"3760420426633","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/5899\/5360\/files\/4444337-3419571.jpg?v=1770369687","url":"https:\/\/vinylrevivalrecordstore.com\/products\/hundredth-faded-splendor-colored-vinyl","provider":"Vinyl Revival Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
