LST-117 THE VERY MOST "NEEDS HELP" cassette tape
Release date Oct 9, 2020

Needs Help is the fifth full-length album from The Very Most, which will be released on October 9, 2020 on Lost Sound Tapes and Kocliko Records. The title comes from the fact that Jeremy, the songwriter/main guy of the band, recorded a bunch of songs that, unbeknownst to him, were outside his vocal range. This required him to recruit a bunch of guest vocalists, including:

Melanie Whittle (The Hermit Crabs)
Kristine Capua (Tiny Fireflies)
Cristina Quesada (Elefant Records solo artist)
Gerri White (Arts & Leisure)
Sally Jati (Starry Eyed Cadet)
Gina Gregerson (Dirt Fishermen/Lovey)
Sarah Lowenbot (Thee Ahs)
Ashley Eriksson (LAKE)
Adam and Darcie
Eli Moore (LAKE)

Needs Help is also an appropriate title due to its mental health connotations (positive or not). The lyrics deal with everyday anxieties concerning parenthood, faith, fallible memories, internet nonsense, and how hard it is, ultimately, to change your life for the better. There's also a song about getting caught being choked up listening to Automatic For The People in your cube at work for the first time in 25 years.

The music itself falls broadly within indiepop, calling to mind at times Belle and Sebastian, Pains of Being Pure at Heart, or Camera Obscura, but is a bit more experimental and, perhaps, a bit darker than what you might expect from the genre. It includes synth textures, dream-pop influences, the requisite boy/girl vocals, and lush harmonies. It's the culmination of five pretty intense years of effort and it had to get made. We hope people enjoy it.

The Very Most "Mirasticles (feat. Ashley Eriksson)"

Safari Room is the indie rock outfit and brainchild of Alec Koukol (Omaha-native, now Nashville-local). The new album 'Time Devours All Things' out February 23rd. 

“We’re not that different you and me,” Alec Koukol repeats throughout the swelling bridge of “Garden Talker,” and that line might as well be a mission statement for Safari Room. Koukol describes “human connection as a founding cornerstone” as the project’s ethos, and that message is a through-line for Safari Room’s entire discography so far. The band is known, particularly in Nashville, for their special brand of indie rock, their live shows and the sense of community that comes from singing Safari Room’s songs together. That’s Safari Room’s hope, and that’s what they’re going for on their as-yet-untitled third LP. These songs are the band’s biggest, boldest, and most personal yet; in other words, they’re Safari Room at their very best. - Zac Djamoos
