New River Head [2LP]

The Bevis Frond - New River Head [2LP]

Double vinyl LP pressing including digital download. Digitally remastered and expanded edition. New River Head is the second studio album and seventh full length release which is widely regarded as the finest. ‘The Miskatonic Variations II’ is a 17-minute psychedelic noise rock odyssey with exhilarating guitar solos and features guest vocals from Current 93’s David Tibet. ‘Undertaker’ and ‘Chinese Burn’ bursts with garage-rock and ‘Waving’ delves more into British folk-rock territory. “The perfect point of entry into his catalogue” (Popmatters). “Within such an impressive body of work, New River Head is certainly the crown jewel. One of the headier agglomerations of the past decade, it’s non-grasping pace and epic palette issue the breezy confidence of an unmistakable classic” Pitchfork.
