THE BAND
It’s still:
Steve Albini ◊ Guitar
Todd Trainer ◊ Drums
Bob Weston ◊ Bass

DATA
This is Shellac’s sixth studio LP. Recording & Mixing took place at Electrical Audio in Chicago over a bunch of long weekends in November, 2017; October, 2019; September, 2021; and March, 2022. The record was mastered by Bob & Steve at Chicago Mastering Service.

PACKAGING
LP and CD packaging and artwork are identical (the CD is just smaller). Bob took all the photos; some with a fancy camera and some with a telephone.

QC
Audio quality is paramount, as always, with Shellac. The LPs are being manufactured by Green Vinyl Records using an injection molding process. This new process uses 100% recyclable PET (like soda bottles) and is environmentally friendly, containing no PVC or Phthalates. The process also uses 79% less CO2 than conventional hydraulic PVC vinyl presses. The records weigh 180 grams.
PROMOTION

Other than the informational sheet you hold in your hand (or virtual hand), this record will have no formal promotion. There will be no advertisements, no press or radio promotion, no e-promotion, no promotional or review copies, no promotional gimmick items, and other-wise no free lunch. Photos of the band are available. And the band is avail-able for email or telephone interviews.

TOURING
The band will continue to play shows or tour at the same sporadic and relaxed pace as always. There is no correlation between shows and record releases.

THE IPODS
Shellac doesn’t have a website. Maybe we should get one. To All Trains (2AT) will be available on most streaming services and download sites in all your formats, sample rates, and bit depths; all the way up to 96kHz, 24-bit, Hi-Res (Apple Digital Masters compliant).
 
Looks like there’s going to be reissues of the singles too for the 30th anniversary of Defintely Maybe. First up Supersonic.


Also in local record stores over here.

I like that album cover. But I haven't listened to a Travis album since Where You Stand.
 
I like the cover quite a bit, too. I'm a huge Travis fan but have been burned with the last couple of albums just being kinda mid to me, will have to hear this before I buy.
Yeah. I was just checking Apple Music for a new song but there's nothing on there yet. I did find some compilation called "I Love You Anyways" that I had never heard of and am playing it now to remember the good ole Travis.
