{"product_id":"light-asylum-light-asylum-lp","title":"Light Asylum - Light Asylum [LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLight Asylum’s debut LP came out in 2012, a time before streaming really gained critical mass and before vinyl came back in a big way. It was a weird in-between era, like both the recent past and ancient history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHistory has been kind to Light Asylum. For one, whatever limited vinyl copies were pressed int he initial run fetch stupid prices on Discogs. And the critical shrug that welcomed its release now seems irrelevant. This is top-notch, black-clad, spiritually punishing synth-pop, perfectly and carefully programmed and soaring on the back of lead singer Shannon Funchess’ superhuman voice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSide A, with rampages like “IPC,” is heavier and faster than Side B, which opens with a slow, serene, goosebump-inducing track titled “Angel Tongue” and finished with the near ecstatic “A Certain Person.“\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe DFA braintrust always maintained a deep love for this record, and we wanted vinyl copies of it for ourselves that didn’t cost so much money. So, we asked if we could reissue it, get Bob Weston to recut it, and press it at a really nice plant like Citizen Vinyl. That’s this version right here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePackage includes a four-color gatefold jacket, printed insert, and 24” x 36” poster.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHour Fortress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePope Will Roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIpc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeart of Dust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSins of the Flesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngel Tongue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShallow Tears\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAt Will\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnd of Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Certain Person\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 829732000276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dfa Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.13.23\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":53234489852064,"sku":"829732000276","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/5899\/5360\/files\/4239948-3029718.jpg?v=1770364801","url":"https:\/\/vinylrevivalrecordstore.com\/products\/light-asylum-light-asylum-lp","provider":"Vinyl Revival Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
