Exploring People Break Album in Australia

The debut album from Melbourne, Australia quintet Attainable People has been a long-time coming. Since forming in 2013, the band (comprised of Samuel Tapper, Leon Cranswick, and the three Hewitt brothers; Steven, Adam, and Mark) have self-released a “stay improv” cassette & a two-song 7-inch on Sydney’s Unusual Pursuits label whereas periodically teasing a forthcoming full-length and burning up stay venues throughout Australia. All people Break up was introduced to reach on April Idiot’s Day of 2019 on ex-Twerps drummer Alex MacFarlane’s wonderful Hobbies Galore label. Fortunately, it wasn’t a prank & the version of 200 LPs bought out in per week. Hassle In Thoughts is proud to re-release All people Break up worldwide in a extra substantial urgent in hopes of getting this wonderful album into everybody’s ears. All 5 members shared songwriting duties on All people Break up, & the album’s 9 tracks jangle and clang with that pressing, nervous power felt in a number of the finest DIY/underground rock from the previous three many years, R.E.M., GBV, Feelies et al, but in addition completely of the NOW, swooning with a smoothed, amber patina of melancholy and longing (see opener “Lung of the Metropolis”, or “Nomenclature Airspace”). There is a palpable crackle emanating from the tunes on All people Break up, throwing sparks through a myriad of attention-grabbing melodic/lyrical twists & turns, just like the earworm riffage on “The Thumps”, that hotwire solo on “Aspiring To Be A Bloke” or the stutter stops / breakdown within the raging “Stinger”. Stick round for “Born Stoned”, the album’s simple spotlight, packing it is near-12 minutes with nods not solely to the aforementioned R.E.M. & Feelies darkish jangle, but in addition the smoke & velvet solos of Heyday-era Church or Blue Oyster Cult. Sure, it is actually that good. All people Break up was recorded by MacFarlane himself & mastered by Oz-legend Mikey Younger for max oomph.
