The Clientele - Porcelain (Slumberland 7" Version) скачать видео бесплатно

In the early days of the bands career, The Clientele released a lot of 7" singles on different labels, sometimes as a split with some other band, or bands. Many of these singles were compiled on the 2000 album "Suburban Light". However, the band kept doing singles and some of those released after the compilation have never been available on cd. This is the case with the Slumberland Split 7" that they did with The Saturday People in 2001. The Clientele is featured on this particular disc with an ultra lofi, early version of "Porcelain", a song that would later appear in a radically different version on the bands proper debut album, "The Violet Hour" from 2003. I must admit that I favor the Slumberland version in spite of the poor sound quality. It's as if some magic is present in those early recordings that must have rubbed off a bit on the recent, professionally recorded records. Up until their second album, "Strange Geometry" from 2005, The Clientele did all the recording themselves. Being tired of vintage equipment breaking down all the time and things generally going wrong, they handed over recording duties to professionals and that is an approach they have sticked to ever since.

The band is currently returning to limelight with their third EP for Spanish indie label Acurela - "That Night a Forest Grew".
