Description

For sale is the only LP Spineless created. A true masterpiece. Read the article I about it wrote beneath:

After the 7", they recorded their one and only full-length called "A Talk Between Me And the Stars". It came out on CD as well on colored vinyl, and was also released by Hans Sober Mind.
If have to be careful in describing this one, because it is a subtle change that they made in writing their music. Despite this subtle change they stay true to the genre. Doing this is hard but they succeed very well. The transition lies in the following points:

  • The music becomes more down-tempo and therefore heavier sounding, they slow down their pace.
  • The voice becomes more screamy.
  • The themes of their lyrics also evolve from outer/social perceptions to perceptions of the inner-self. With a high sensitivity for and awareness of suffering and adversity.
  • The two last songs of the Spineless 7", "Human Disgrace" and "Eclipse Of Hate" are also on this full length. They are both rather about the inner-self…and therefore fittingly on this record. Another related song and about an event very influential for their later work is the song "Afraid To Live"
  • The song 'Worromot Yadot' is instrumental, but not entirely, there are numerous screams that echo endlessly… With this track AMENRA was born
I'm not saying that SPINELESS and AMENRA are uniform, but there are elements that started with "Painfields", continued with "A Talk Between Me And The Stars" and that these elements return in every later release made by these guys. Also not saying that the evolution is entirely linear, as in the tempo slowing down, but when you hear "A Talk Between Me And The Stars" you can surely hear that the band became ripe and that they became able to make a change within the H8000 hardcore blend and got innovative.
So LIAR and CONGRESS made the edge-metal great, later SPINELESS adapted this sound in their beginnings, to then make something unique after the 90's. In this Spineless full length is the embryo of that change. Disciples became masters, to start something of their own. And continue to keep the West-Flanders underground music scene innovative and evolving.

The record comes on clear vinyl and the numbering is stamped with ink this is #012/121. Insert is also included.

I will be listing and selling several other items from my collection in the next weekends. Titles include 90's classics, H8000 gems and Good Life releases.
