The band is still Steve Albini (Guitar), Todd Trainer (Drums) and Bob Weston (Bass). This is Shellacüfs sixth studio LP.

Recording & Mixing took place at Electrical Audio in Chicago over a bunch of long weekends in November, 2017; October, 2019; September, 2021; and March, 2022.

The record was mastered by Bob & Steve at Chicago Mastering Service. The LP and CD packaging and artwork are identical (the CD is just smaller).

Bob took all the photos; some with a fancy camera and some with a telephone. The audio quality is paramount, as always, with Shellac.

The LPs are being manufactured by Green Vinyl Records using an injection molding process.

This new process uses 100% recyclable PET (like soda bottles) and is environmentally friendly, containing no PVC or Phthalates.

The process also uses 79% less CO2 than conventional hydraulic PVC vinyl presses. The records weigh 180 grams.

For this album there will be no advertisements, no press or radio promotion, no e-promotion, no promotional or review copies, no promotional gimmick items, and other-wise no free lunch.

The band will continue to play shows or tour at the same sporadic and relaxed pace as always.

There is no correlation between shows and record releases. Shellac doesn't have a website.

Maybe they should get one.
