{"product_id":"juliana-hatfield-blood-red-translucent-vinyl","title":"Juliana Hatfield - Blood [Red Translucent] { vinyl }","description":"\u003cp\u003eBlood is Juliana Hatfield's 19th solo studio album of originals, and a deep dive into the dark side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album is a brutal and critical look at modern human psychology and behavior; at personal and societal sickness. \"I think these songs are a reaction to how seriously and negatively a lot of people have been affected by the past four years,\" says Juliana.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"But it's fun, musically. There's a lot of playing around. I didn't really have a plan when I started this project.\" \"Chunks\" and \"Had A Dream\" are gritty and abrasive while \"Mouthful of Blood\" and \"Gorgon\" are groovy and ultra-melodic. All of it is eminently hummable and thought-provoking. Sophisticated but catchy. Challenging but danceable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"I always love coming up with melodies and then trying to fit words into them-it's like doing a puzzle,\" says Juliana. \"And I always find places to use the Mellotron flutes and strings, on every album, because those sounds are so beautiful to me. They are a nice counterpoint to the damaged lyrical content.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album was recorded largely at home-Juliana's home in Massachusetts and new collaborator Jed Davis' home in Connecticut. \"During self-isolation I took the opportunity to finally learn how to record into my laptop,\" says Juliana, \"and that's how this album came to be. (Usually I work in a studio.) I did more than half the work in my room-with Jed helping me to troubleshoot the technology, and helping with building and arranging some of the songs-and then I finished up with additional overdubs and mixing with engineer James Bridges at Q Division Studios in Somerville, MA.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57447643939147,"sku":"616011914573","price":3.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/6169\/9915\/files\/3927062-2666110.jpg?v=1779856131","url":"https:\/\/vinylvintage.shop\/products\/juliana-hatfield-blood-red-translucent-vinyl","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
