Our first, To Set Things Right, was released in 2010 just a month or so before we dropped our packed-up lives into the belly of a plane and headed west to the far east to make a life for one year in South Korea.

We kept writing sporadically but the busy-ness of life wouldn't let up in order for us to commit our new (to others) music to a format. Finally, in 2019, Dan started demoing the songs that had yet to be recorded with his good friend and newfound collaborator Matt Frazer, with the goal of laying down final versions in April of 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe all know how that went.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo be clear, this is not a pandemic record. Some of these songs are older than our 17-year-old marriage. We started writing together while we were dating. In fact, the opening track, So I Guess, is one of the first songs we ever wrote together. We just finally found a way to make it sound like we'd always heard it in our heads. A nice bookend, the last song and title track, The Things We Get Wrong, is one of our most recent. It almost didn't even make it on the album and was written well into the recording process. The whole process has been the epitome of journey, and we are grateful to have finally reached the destination as much as we are for the steps that got us here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Things We Get Wrong is our sophomore album with 11 tracks and clocks in at just over 48 minutes.

The album builds on the groundwork of its grunge-pop predecessor by adding new layers of atmosphere and fuzzed-out bliss. Songs like “I.D.K.” and “Through The Gleam” burst with distorted fury, while “Into The Particle” and “Other Plane” draw elements from dream pop and shoegaze.

For the unindoctrinated, Wet Tropics are an enigma: a beautifully misshapen, wonderfully weird piece of the modern musical puzzle that firmly overlaps multiple rock genres all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn their forthcoming album, Everybody Get In, it’s not uncommon for Wet Tropics to playfully occupy the same hazy reverb-soaked space as post-punk forbearers Psychedelic Furs and the angular, art-damaged rock bombast of Ty Segall, Osees, or Jacuzzi Boys in the course of a single three-minute foray. Although the band’s sound may lean to the West Coast, they haven’t eschewed their Midwest roots entirely.

While his contributions to songwriting and rhythmic bass playing of his earlier efforts are broadly recognized, Wet Tropics finds him moving from stage right to lending his writing voice to the musical songscape. Rounding out the mayhem is veteran drummer\/vocalist Krystal Rosenbrock and multi-instrumentalist Justin Watt on bass. These two bring more power and expression to a rhythm section that simply can’t be underestimated. Together the three form Wet Tropics, a DIY musical democracy that delivers a markedly distinct and impactful group effort. Make no mistake, the Wet Tropics sound has the Gen-X slacker charm firmly in place, but it’s also hotwired with key elements of garage rock, power pop and post-punk that find Wet Tropics at the front line of exploratory rock music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced by Rejba, Matt Holmes and Jeff Dean, Wet Tropics’ Everybody Get In was recorded at The Echo Mill by Holmes, mixed by Dean at The Deanery, and mastered by Adam Stilson.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRIYL: Psychedelic Furs, Jacuzzi Boys, The Jesus and Mary Chain\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e$2 per LP will be donated the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/immigrantjustice.org\/\" title=\"NIJC\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNIJC\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Friend Club Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51112666464578,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/6839\/4562\/files\/wet-tropics-everybody-get-in-yellow-vinyl-lp-9875941.jpg?v=1761183866"},{"product_id":"blanket-fort","title":"Blanket Fort: Rejoice: Cassette","description":"\u003cp\u003eCharlotte, North Carolina based indie rockers return with Rejoice, 11 new songs on limited edition cassette.

Bell And The Hammer: The Things We Get Wrong: Clear Cassette","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt has been twelve years since Serenity and I, under the moniker The Bell \u0026amp; the Hammer, have released an album. Our first, To Set Things Right, was released in 2010 just a month or so before we dropped our packed-up lives into the belly of a plane and headed west to the far east to make a life for one year in South Korea. Nearly four years later, we came back with about as much as we went, with the glaring exception of having a two-year-old and newborn in tow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTen+ years of life came and went. We kept writing sporadically but the busy-ness of life wouldn't let up in order for us to commit our new (to others) music to a format. Finally, in 2019, Dan started demoing the songs that had yet to be recorded with his good friend and newfound collaborator Matt Frazer, with the goal of laying down final versions in April of 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe all know how that went.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo be clear, this is not a pandemic record. Some of these songs are older than our 17-year-old marriage. We started writing together while we were dating. In fact, the opening track, So I Guess, is one of the first songs we ever wrote together. We just finally found a way to make it sound like we'd always heard it in our heads. A nice bookend, the last song and title track, The Things We Get Wrong, is one of our most recent. It almost didn't even make it on the album and was written well into the recording process. The whole process has been the epitome of journey, and we are grateful to have finally reached the destination as much as we are for the steps that got us here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Things We Get Wrong is our sophomore album with 11 tracks and clocks in at just over 48 minutes. We are impossibly proud of how it shaped up in the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e$2 per tape will be donated the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/immigrantjustice.org\/\" title=\"NIJC\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNIJC\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Friend Club Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51132427993410,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/6839\/4562\/files\/the-bell-and-the-hammer-the-things-we-get-wrong-clear-cassette-4572759.jpg?v=1755578885"},{"product_id":"elemantra-air-like-a-buzzsaw-cd","title":"Elemantra: Air Like A Buzzsaw: Limited Edition CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eLimited Edition CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElemantra is a Buffalo, NY-based rock band that blends the hazy textures of shoegaze with the heartfelt sincerity of 90’s emo \u0026amp; indie rock.
