SNOWDEN "ANTI-ANTI" CD (JT1115) OUT TODAY
Jade Tree is proud to announce the release of SNOWDEN's first full-length for Jade Tree, Anti-Anti. The album integrates the ethereal guitar resonance and dynamic percussion reminiscent of bands like Ride, New Order and Suicide, with the volatility of contemporaries such as The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. The debut album, produced by Erik Woffard (The Black Angels, Explosions in the Sky, My Morning Jacket), captures the Atlanta, GA four-piece elevating their trademark sound into an unpredictable mix of dirty pop soundscapes. Anti-Anti (JT1115) is the definitive call of SNOWDEN, a brand of post-shoegaze melodies amidst a sea of reverb heavy distortion and hypnotic, layered complexities. Anti-Anti is available for online ordering, in stores, and digitally through iTunes, emusic, Urge, Yahoo, Virgin Digital, FYE, HMV, and Cdigix.
In further SNOWDEN news, the band is embarking on an extensive U.S./Canadian tour to coincide with the release of Anti-Anti throughout the remainder of August and into September, followed by an appearance at CMJ's Jade Tree showcase. Having shared the stage in the past with such luminaries as Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, The Arcade Fire, Islands and Xiu Xiu, SNOWDEN's raucous live performance is not one to miss.
Furthermore, SNOWDEN has been making the rounds in the blogging world (Stereogrum, Brooklynvegan, Gorilla Vs Bear, Gothamist, Ultragrrrl, Coolfer, Refinery29, TinyVoices, Autopiamusic, Glasswerk and more), and the press (with coverage in The Fader, Entertainment Weekly, Nylon, URB, Pitchfork, CMJ, Under the Radar, CMJ and Nerve.) Most recently, Anti-Anti was named Album of the Month in Transworld Skateboarding, and has been getting played by Steve Lamacq on Radio 1 in the U.K.
