Striking out from the wastelands between indie and experimental rock, Some Stranger emerges with an incredibly catchy debut release. Blissful, melodic vocals soar over a powerful and driving rhythm section and the guitars run through one of the largest vintage pedal collections in the world; the five haunting tracks are the work of seasoned veterans combining forces to yield amazing results. Formerly of emo-rock outfit Daytrader, vocalist Tym joined friend and acclaimed visual artist / guitarist Daniel Danger to form Some Stranger with a mutual affliction for left-of-center angular rock. The duo enlisted Derrick Flanagin (Daytrader, Capsule) to track drums and promptly hammered out their first set of recordings with engineer Gary Cioffi (Transit, Misser) also handling bass duties. Vince Ratti (Circa Survive, Balance and Composure) mixed the session, which was then mastered by Will Yip (Title Fight, Blacklisted). Finally, Jacob Van Loon contributed artwork. This 45 RPM vinyl 12-inch has a first press limited to 500 pieces and includes a digital download.
