Urthboy - Spitshine
RELEASE DATE: AUG 28
ELEFANT TRAKS/InertiaIntroducing Spitshine, the third album from Urthboy.
Spitshine is an audacious record packed with punch and finesse: the beats and vocals swagger with breezy rhythm. There’s a defiant optimism about it: everyone’s got a story and somehow, anyhow, that story should be told. From the light refrain ‘We’re all going to hell’ through to the darkness of ‘Above the Canopy’ and the straight up heaviness of ‘Served’.
Production is handled by the same talent that saw last album The Signal get multiple award nominations (AMP; J Award; AIR Awards). Count Bounce (6 tracks); Elgusto (3 tracks) and Hermitude (3 tracks) exhibit why they’re on par with international stars – with some inspired sampling and synth work.
Guests such as Lior, Jane Tyrrell and Solo (Horrorshow) help create a diverse album.
