UNWOUND 'NEW PLASTIC IDEAS' LP (Clear Vinyl)

LABEL: Numero Group
VINYL RELEASE DATE: 1/26/2018
ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 1994
VARIANT: Clear Vinyl LP

Like a well-worn Brillo pad with something to prove, Unwound’s second full-length release scrapes the soul with alternating strokes of post-hardcore dissonance and artful guitar experimentalism. Sounding something like a cross between Sister-era Sonic Youth and Drive Like Jehu, New Plastic Ideas is comfortable navigating weird-pivoted punk terseness (“Entirely Different Matters”) and epically head-bobbing hypno-jams (“Hexenzsene”) in equal measure.
