Yndi Halda Vinyl Release

Yndi Halda's much acclaimed "Enjoy Eternal Bliss" ep will be getting the full vinyl release treatment. Pre-order's of the double LP and shipping will start next week at their American label, Burnt Toast Vinyl. I may order this myself, despite having the CD, as I prefer the earthy sound of vinyl to any other medium.

If you want a CD version, you can get it from their UK label, Big Scary Monsters. This seems as good as time as any, to post the Yndi mp3 that has been in my inbox for a few weeks now. Of course, even people with only a passing interest in post-rock should know who these guys are, such was the impact their (initially) self-released ep made. If you haven't, for some unknown reason, had the pleasure of experiencing this young band, I demand you download the mp3 below.

Back in December, during his top 5 albums of 2006 post, Vic Spanner gave Yndi Halda this magnificent description:

"Three tracks, 45 minutes. Local heroes Yndi Halda's epic E.P. arrived in the form of a personalised hardback copy of "Danger In Deep Space" (a Tom Corbett Space Cadet Adventure), with nature shots inserted by the band, and a note apologising for the delay in sending it (they like to hand make their cds). The music ?: Epic, beautiful, spine chilling, sad and incredible, the world needs some new adjectives for this music. There's a moment exactly ten minutes into "We Flood Empty Lakes" that sounds like a million superheroes flying through the stormy skies at once. Finally, a band worth giving a shit about".
