Bloggers favourite (and one of my picks for 2011) Memoryhouse have taken their time following up their second 7", the woozy, delicate beauty of "Caregiver" but have now unveiled a new track off the first physical pressing of Memoryhouse’s first EP, 'The Years' which is available September 13th on Sup Pop.
Rather a simple re-issue, the band have re-recorded, "Sleep Patterns", "Lately", and "To the Lighthouse" and have added two new tracks entitled "Modern, Normal" and "Quiet America", the two tracks don't deviate from their ethereal, ambient whispers. The fleeting "Quiet America" is a sad piano ballad of slow-burning, loveliness and "Modern, Normal", with its achingly beautiful dreamscapes and luscious melodies. Gorgeous.
You can pre-order 'The Years' via Sub Pop now.
