The Riptides - Burn After Listening - Tide Pod Marble - Vinyl LP
- $19.99
- $19.99
Based in Ottawa, Ontario, the capital city of Canada, The Riptides have been cranking out high-energy blasts of melodic, poppy punk rock for over 25 years. With their new LP Burn After
Listening, the band makes the move to Pirates Press Records, and are ready to bring their sound to an all new worldwide audience!
Originally formed in 1998, the band wasted no time assembling their own studio and label, putting out their own records as well as their fellow Ottawa bands. Word spread quickly, and the band’s notoriety grew, particularly in the US, and soon the band found that they enjoyed rising to the challenge of leaving home and recording at noted US studios, with Burn After Listening being no exception. This album was recorded at the legendary Blasting Room in Fort Collins, CO, with Andrew Berlin at the helm for tracking and Jason Livermore in charge of the final master.
These studio sessions included a cavalcade of friends & guest musicians, including members of Teenage Bottlerocket, All American Rejects, Screeching Weasel, and The Queers. A number of songs on the record also bear co-writing credits from fellow Pirates Press Records artist Matt DeeCRACK. Blending attitude-driven downstroke riffs with irresistible hooks and harmonies, combined with an aesthetic informed by everything from nerdy pop culture and surfing, they've already amassed quite the following across the decades, but this record stands poised to introduce them to many new fans.
Ultimately, Bob Goblin believes it is a strong representation of the band for newcomers. “We've always loved fast, aggressive songs, but never shied away from the poppier stuff either,” he says. “I can't stand boring records where every song sounds exactly the same from top to bottom.” He also believes that longtime fans will be equally pleased with what they hear. “They'll get it. Our DNA from past records is all over this one.”
