With a dozen releasesacross it's 10 years as a band, the Philly-via-Portland-via-Montana group has traversedgenres, moods and textures while maintaining one important throughline: an explorationof closeness.2016's double-LP Rot Forever was a 72-minute freakout that paired Built To Spill grandiositywith early Modest Mouse intensity. On the 2017 follow-up Daymoon (Tiny Engines), StrangeRanger hung up the distortion pedals and traded caustic yelps for Alex G-esque croons. Itwas a synth-adorned, insular bedroom-pop record that floated rather than soared, and theband opted for lyrical impressionism over the hyper-specific outbursts of the debut.Farontman Isaac Eiger's writing style reads like a loose assembly of quotes from conversationshe's had with others spliced with his own, private introspections. He is a modern masterof conveying the anxiety and uncertainty of growing older through a mixture of childhoodnostalgia and interpersonal tidbits. There's plenty of that on Remembering The Rockets, butafter all of these years of singing about Eiger's own coming-of-age story, the album approachesthe quandary of whether he'll ever be able to impart that process-through which he's reaped somuch artistic joy and curiosity-onto someone else.For a topic as severe as ecological collapse affecting his own parental aspirations-as wellas other melancholy ruminations on loneliness, the passing of time, and the complicationsof emotional intimacy-Strange Ranger still ended up making the lushest, smoothest, andmost pleasingly hypnotic album of it's career.","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49215710265586,"sku":"TNEG197A.1","price":31.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/4220024-3525020.jpg?v=1778921400","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/strange-ranger-remembering-the-rockets-vinyl-record-634457123281","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
