Langkamer – Langzamer 12″ Vinyl

Their third album in just as many years, Langzamer sees the Bristol-based band further refine their unique blend of slacker rock, alt-country and West Country folklore with a sincere meditation on grief and loss. Decamping to Falmouth to record with producer Ben Woods (The Golden Dregs), the band transformed the old vaults under venue The Cornish Bank into a makeshift studio, spending a week laying down the foundations for an album that had been gradually written over the previous twelve months. This slower, more considered, pace can be heard throughout Langzamer, with the band often trading in their breezy, melodic charm for disarming confessionalism. From scuzzy opener ‘Heart of Tin’ to the sparse, haunting piano of closer ‘Bluff’, there is a candour that challenges any casual listener, an emotional weight that lingers long after the album ends. Amongst Langkamer’s prolific output, Langzamer bravely stands tall as their most restrained, matured, and sincere collection to date.
