We've heard an advance and it RULES.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited edition \"Ripple Red\" colour vinyl. Black wax and CD also available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those who've lost Howlin Rain's trail over the years, or hopped off in the years following The Russian Wilds, this LP represents a hard reset, a stunning infusion of psychedelic vigor, a glorious reinvention of a band that's no stranger to new beginnings. Each track of Watermelon opens a new box of surprises, all it takes to unlock them is a simple needle drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing tracks by Mountain, Judee Sill, Sugluk, Moby Grape, Fairport Convention, Todd Rundgren, Scott Walker, Tim Hardin, and Mountain Bus (who supplies Rosali, the album's fitting closer, a great Dead-infused jam leading into the cosmic thicket). Silver Paper, the lead-off single, takes Mountain's earnest, ripped and ragged soul vocal (aptly supplied by the Black Crowes' Chris Robinson) and fretboard pyrotechnics into a (much) higher key. 30th Century Man injects the Scott Walker chestnut with exploding fuzz solos and lost, late-night vox (courtesy of Ty Segall, the perfect foil for Walker's velvet croon). Fall Away, a track from the seminal Native North Americacomp on Light in the Attic, swaps the inimitable First Nations backbeat with Crazy Horse chug and blasting fuzz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jVVTS_j5OqI?si=6pRjRVzcCk9XsRPv\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Silver Current","offers":[{"title":"Ripple Red LP","offer_id":67636197130334,"sku":"HOWLIN RAIN - Watermelon RIPPLE RED","price":53.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":67636197163102,"sku":"HOWLIN RAIN - Watermelon BLACK","price":49.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":67636197195870,"sku":"HOWLIN RAIN - Watermelon CD","price":24.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1273\/6111\/files\/howlinrain-watermelon_adb646cd-6a29-43d0-ba2a-b71759a7709d.jpg?v=1791282917","url":"https:\/\/www.strangeworldrecords.com.au\/products\/howlin-rain-watermelon-lp","provider":"Strangeworld Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
