British Sea Power ‎- Open Season 15th Anniversary 2xLP Vinyl Record (Blue Coloured Vinyl)

On their sophomore LP “Open Season,” the UK band trades idiosyncrasy for accessible pop melodies. British Sea Power have followed a clamorous post-punk debut with an album of unexpectedly gentle new-wave guitar pop. 

That uniqueness of this album is beyond doubt. Other bands may share British Sea Power's musical influences: artful post-punk angularity, the Pixies' squalling guitars, the unsettling, Wicker Man end of English folk - but none shares British Sea Power's obsession with the arcane corners of modern European history, their penchant for dressing in puttees, their willingness to decorate their stages with foliage and stuffed birds. 

A more accessible album than their debut, “Open Season” offers an optimistic, graceful and unique listen. Something refreshing for indie rock. 

Sides A and B contain the original album, pressed on Blue Vinyl. Sides C and D are a picture disc containing demos, radio sessions and bonus tracks, pressed on a picture disc with an 'assemble your own' zoetrope.
