EVERYTHING ELSE – Another One Making Clouds – LP – Turquoise Vinyl

LP – Indies Exclusive Limited Edition Turquoise Vinyl.

Big Potato are highly ecstatic to introduce the first album by Liverpool based duo Everything Else.

Friends since the age of six, most of the album was written and recorded by the pair when they were nineteen. The songs possess all the singular magic of a duo writing and playing together while sounding like a full, sonically charged band.

Their debut E.P. track ‘Two Monkeys‘, included here, has a level of shoegazey dirt that will leave many distortion freaks reeling. ‘Every Word Said‘ is prog-pop perfection. The title track is as moody as anything by Flying Saucer Attack. ‘Another One Making Clouds evolves over 35 minutes and doesnt stop elevating and surprising.

A founding notion of our label was to release recordings made as the musicians first intended. No notes and no re-recording with a proper producer in a real studio. A noble preference we saw labels like Rough Trade pursuing with The Strokes, The Smiths, The Fall et al.

This album is a proud example. And captures something you cant fake. A young band finding an epic, emotional, cinematic sound in their bedroom. Using it in that peculiarly British way to express the wonder, confusion and heartache of being nineteen. Of wanting to be seen and not seen.

Its a kind of British soul music with ancestors like The Cure, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Jesus & Mary Chain and the original shoegaze bands. Progressive guitar music, channeling deep emotion, a desire to hear something that sounds like how you feel inside. The stuff nobody talks about. Everything Else.
