BEIRUT - Hadsel LP (colour vinyl)
$51.95
Limited edition "Ice Breaker" colour vinyl.
The story of how Hadsel came to be comes straight from bandleader Zack Condon himself. Where Gallipoli was somewhat a full-band effort, Hadsel was completely a one-man operation.
Initially recorded just before the COVID-19 pandemic took hold of the world, and completed in the midst of said pandemic, Condon had the perfect excuse to get back to what he refers to as a “DIY approach.” Just him, an organ, some drum machines, two large analog synths, and all the time in the world.
And what emerged was this. Something so pure, so clear.
Simply put, Hadsel is nothing short of a triumph.
