 | | Description: | The Exploding Hearts' Klassiker, Guitar Romantic, feiert sein 20-jähriges Jubiläum und wir hier als
remasterte Version mit erweiterter Tracklist wiederveröffentlicht.
Mit zehn unbestreitbaren Songs in nur 28 Minuten fungierte das Album von Exploding Hearts als
das Punkrock-�quivalent zu Ernest Hemingways Schreiben: Nichts Nebensächliches, einfach,
geradlinig, auf den Punkt gebracht, ohne zusätzliche Schnörkel. Die Arbeit am gro�en Ganzen
stand für die Band im Vordergrund. - Vinyl LP pressing. Digitally remastered and expanded edition. Drawing spiritual inspiration from the likes of the Buzzcocks, Undertones, and Nick Lowe, the attitude and implied delinquency of The Exploding Hearts was more in line with that of au courant Naughties Warped Tour line-ups. With ten undeniable songs clocking in at just 28 minutes, the Hearts' indisputably essential Guitar Romantic operated as the punk rock equivalent of Ernest Hemingway's writing: Nothing extraneous, simple, straightforward, to the point, deserving of no additional flourish or accoutrement, with every creative decision pushing forward the work as a whole. Arguably, perfect. Yet barely three months after it's domestic release, with momentum building and Lookout! Records sniffing around, band members Jeremy Gage, Adam Cox and Matt Fitzgerald, all barely in their twenties, would die in a tragic van accident that ended the band. Guitar Romantic (Expanded & Remastered) doesn't just present the album with a sharp, spiffed up remastering. It also found original album producer Pat Kearns spinning the old reel to reel and archived DAT tapes for the first time in twenty years. This enabled Six to drop in nuggets like little snippets of pre-and-post-take studio dialogue amongst band members, adding audible life to a record that for too long has been overly-associated with death. If that weren't enough, the remastering uncovered the previously forgotten organ-heavy "King Louie Mix" of the fan favorite "I'm A Pretender." Even more intriguing was the discovery of a completely unheard take of "So Bored", previously not even known to have been recorded at the Guitar Romantic sessions. Of most excitement though is a remastered version of "Busy Signals" (a song originally released on a small-quantity 7-inch in January 2003).Runouts are etched.
Expanded & Remastered: In celebration of the undeniable album's 20th anniversary.
Black record pressing.The LP "Guitar Romantic (Expanded & Remastered)" by The Exploding Hearts is a definitive edition of one of the most beloved underground power-pop and punk records of the early 2000s. This expanded & remastered version breathes new life into the band's raw, hook-laden songs, sharpening the guitars, clarifying the vocals and giving the rhythm section a more vivid presence while preserving the original lo-fi charm. Expect instantly memorable choruses, bittersweet melodies and a youthful energy that bridges late-'70s punk, classic power pop and garage rock into a timeless, emotionally charged album experience on vinyl. As an LP edition, it is designed for listeners who want to experience the record as a cohesive whole, with sequencing and dynamics that make sense across the two sides of the record and invite repeated, immersive listening.
The Exploding Hearts were a short-lived but highly influential band whose music has since become a reference point for modern power pop and punk-inspired rock. With "Guitar Romantic" they achieved cult status, their songs circulating far beyond the underground scenes thanks to their combination of urgency, heartbreak and instantly sing-along hooks. Although their recorded output is small, the band's posthumous reputation has grown steadily, inspiring later bands and remaining a staple recommendation for fans of melodic punk and retro-leaning guitar rock.
