Spirit of the Beehive - Entertainment Death [Tan Vinyl] (New Vinyl LP)
Description
Ever since Spirit of the Beehive released their self-titled debut in 2014, they've developed a reputation for being your favorite band's favorite band. Theirs is the music of immersion, of confrontation, the kind that makes a listener stop and wonder, "How are they even doing that?" And as the years wear on, that sense of bafflement has made room for Spirit of the Beehive to quietly but steadily ascend, with their most recent album, 2018's Hypnic Jerks, leaving them poised on the precipice of wider recognition. Entertainment, Death signals new chapters for the band on multiple fronts, being the first to feature their new three-piece lineup, as well as the first to be entirely self-recorded and produced. Guitarist/vocalist Zack Schwartz and bassist/vocalist Rivka Ravede are now joined by new member Corey Wichlin, a multi-instrumentalist who relocated from Chicago to the band's home territory of Philadelphia last year. In the spring of 2020, the trio began to write their new album at a distance by emailing files back and forth. "The process of making this album was basically the exact opposite of our experience creating Hypnic Jerks," Schwartz explains. "We had to record that in seven days, because that was the studio time we had, whereas Entertainment, Death was made over the course of three, four months."
