Description

The Ex-Bombers' "The Tightwire" is a unique indie album released in 2012 on Cavetone Records. This 12" LP features a captivating 31-minute narrative that details the band's decommissioning, delivering a raw and emotional listening experience. The album is presented in mono, emphasizing its vintage and intimate sound quality. The pressing was carefully mastered and hand-stamped on a Finebilt manual record press at Musical Record Pressing in Cleveland, OH, ensuring top-class vinyl quality. This record contains a collection of tracks including "I Can't Do Anything," "Agent Pink," "Sexy Interrogation," and the title track "The Tightwire." All lyrics and music were written by Scott Walus, who also provides vocals and melodic instruments alongside Keri Cousins on vocals and percussion. The album is notable for its analog production techniques, recorded on open reel tape and mixed to open reel magnetic tape, without any added effects or digital processing. This edition comes in a cardboard sleeve with the original black-and-white cover art and label. Collectors and fans of indie and lo-fi vinyl will appreciate the authenticity and storytelling captured on this release. Its mono format, limited production, and hand-crafted pressing make it a standout addition to any vinyl collection. Ideal for those who enjoy deeply personal and artistic records with a vintage vibe.
