HINTERLAND (VINYL)

Five years after her highly-acclaimed debut album 'Nerve Up' saw LoneLady garner praise from the likes of Pitchfork, NME, and The Quietus, LoneLady returns with the exciting announcement of her new album. 'Hinterland' (literally "the country behind" in German) conjures impressions of decayed Manchester outskirts and reclusive inner landscapes obsessively throughout the record, as Campbell continues her fascination with the post-industrial ruins cape. At its core beats an uncomplicated drum machine rhythm and synthetic percussion that recalls fractured memories of minimal wave and even early techno and dance, dynamically spliced through with Campbell's intricate, choppy and propulsive guitar playing.
With longer, exploratory songs full of inventive twists and turns, the album expands the stark palette of its predecessor, 2010's 'Nerve Up' into more colourful territories, with a funk influence emerging.
Performing guitar, keyboards, cello, vocals, using drum machines, drum pads and more, Campbell recorded, mixed and produced the material for her new album in her home studio, Concrete Retreat. She then travelled to an industrial region of Michigan to complete the production with Bill Skibbe (Austra, The Kills, The Dead Weather) at Keyclub Recording Co.
