Stitches, The – Unzip My Baby ... All 7inches [IMPORT] - New LP

  lyric sheet, no download code! black vinyl     The first 16 seconds of "Sixteen" are everything you need to know about the Stitches. Mike Lohrman counts off, sounding oddly alone, the room echoing behind him. The song lurches: raw, ragged, as low and slow as a B-17 bomber. But before you can finish the thought, they've jumped a beat ahead. "Sixteen" revs up and then doubles over itself. Its all those months of speed and strangling boredom; its a band fucked up on meth and booze as they were every session, Lohrman says just pushing everything out as fast and hard as they can because for all they know, its going to disappear again into a black hole of white noise, just like the last time they tried to record. There isnt a shred of calculation or restraint in the entire song. Its nothing but instinct soon to be a Stitches trademark. And when Lohrman counts off again double time hes got the entire band behind him, punching every syllable through the back wall. Johnny Sleepers crash cym
