RENDERERS, THE - Measured Strychnine Invitations

Exiled Records is excited to release this compilation of some of our favorite songs by New Zealand cult legends, The Renderers. Formed in 1989 by Brian and Maryrose Crook of such esteemed bands as The Terminals, Max Block, Scorched Earth Policy, Flies Inside The Sun, etc. Rooted in a kind of cosmic country music, the songs regularly journey (lyrically and musically) into the heart of darkness while being taken outside the cosmos via Brians raw and visceral guitar playing. Long a cult favorite with the few who have been lucky enough to hear / see them (Will Oldham covered their music and took them on the road with him as his backing band), they have operated in relative obscurity for decades. With nearly their entire discography only released on CD (and long unavailable), this is your first chance to have most of these classic tunes on vinyl. Starting with the classic Dream of the Sea and ending with the heartbreaking A Million Lights. Mastered by Timothy Stollenwerk who declared this one of his all time favorite releases. Edition of 500 copies. Dont sleep! - Exiled.
