If you were listening on Friday, you may have caught the premiere of “Horophones” on WKNC, if not Music.MyNC has the track streaming for your listening pleasure below.
“Horophones” by The Love Language
“Horophones” is the first professionally recorded track from The Love Language, and was written by frontman Stuart McLamb after moving into his new apartment with Gross Ghost’s Mike Dillon.
“[It's] a simple little move-in song.” McLamb said. “I wrote it about a week after being here.”
Although the track was recorded with the full band for the up-coming Hear Here: The Triangle benefit compilation, McLamb says it’s not really any kind of indication of what to expect on the band-centric follow-up to his self-titled debut.
“‘Horophones’ is a perfect comp track,” McLamb said. “It was fun and awesome to work with BJ [Burton], but the new record is going to be very amber pop with horns and elaborate instrumentation.”
The track is the second to be revealed from the compilation as Lonnie Walker’s phenomenal opener “Feels Like Right” previously debuted over at Indy Week.
Hear Here will be unleashed on Aug. 29 with an album release party planned at Cat’s Cradle with Annuals, The Never, Hammer No More The Fingers and Birds of Avalon. Admission to the show is $10 and includes a copy of the comp. If you can’t make it to the show, the album can be picked up for $5.
A second release show is being planned for Oct. 3 at The Pour House, and although the lineup has yet to be announced, word is it’s working out to be killer.
Proceeds from the sales of the album will benefit The Visual Art Exchange — Raleigh’s oldest private non-profit visual arts organization. Except for “Weeping Wall” by Sunfold, the album was recorded at Flying Tiger Sound in Raleigh and is curated along with WKNC and Terpsikhore Records.
