Retox/ YPLL or Years of Potential Life Lost:
…’an estimate of the average years a person would have lived if he or she had not died prematurely.’
…. we all know it’s not officially released until May 28th- so I’m making no secret of the fact that the digital version ‘fell into my path’ a little early. Twelve tracks in just over twenty minutes that exceed the already high standard set on Ugly Animals.
If integrity is something important you look for in music- buy/ pre-order this record, read the lyrics and watch the accompanying documentary.
RETOX have released a 60 minute documentary that is available with purchase of their forthcoming record, YPLL out May 27th. The documentary explores the realities of making an album, what it’s like to be in a touring band today and features interviews with Buzz Osborne from The Melvins and Nick Zinner from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, who also appears on the new record.
