Previously very hard to find, Hoarse contains 16 HORSEPOWER live tracks from Denver in 1998, that were first intended as a bootleg, then released briefly on Checkered Past as an official live album after the powers that be heard how good it is. The band would become a four piece, more electric, more rock at times, and the reigning masters of heavy without being heavy in the metal or punk sense of the word. Here are eight of their original favorites, plus three unique takes on songs by JOY DIVISION, CREEDENCE and GUN CLUB. It could be argued that the voice, vibe and vision of David Eugene Edwards tapped an even deeper vein than Jeffrey Lee Pierce himself. Only instead of a hellhound on his trail, David’s went straight to god. Long sought-after by rabid and diverse 16 HP fans everywhere, Hoarse finds a steady and permanent home at last on Alternative Tentacles Records.

Sixteen Horsepower - American Wheeze

Το ντεμπούτο album τους, “Verba Time”, έχει αποσπάσει ενθουσιώδεις κριτικές και το κομμάτι “In A Bar” έχει σπάσει ρεκόρ ακροάσεων στο youtube. Οι Tango With Lions επιστρέφουν αυτή την άνοιξη με το δεύτερο πολυαναμενόμενο album τους “A Long Walk”.  Με μεγάλο περίπατο μοιάζει η πορεία τους τα τελευταία χρόνια.  Το project της  Kat (Κατερίνα Παπαχρήστου) ξεκίνησε σαν μια μεταβαλλόμενη ομάδα μουσικών που εξελίχθηκε στη σημερινή σταθερή πλέον σύνθεση του συγκροτήματος που ηχογράφησε το “A Long Walk”.
   
Τα 10 τραγούδια του album, με αφετηρία τη σύνθεση και τους στίχους της Kat, ενορχηστρώθηκαν σιγά-σιγά από όλο το συγκρότημα τα τελευταία δύο χρόνια, μέσα από διαρκές pre-production και πρόβες. Οι ηχογραφήσεις ξεκίνησαν το καλοκαίρι του 2012 και ολοκληρώθηκαν τον Ιανουάριο του 2013 στο στούντιο SCA από τον Θοδωρή Ζευκιλή.
 
Όπως στο “Verba Time”  έτσι και εδώ το κάθε τραγούδι είναι και μια μικρή ιστορία, όμως, αυτή τη φορά οι ιστορίες είναι αυτοτελείς, με διαδρομές μέσα σε σκοτεινά όνειρα, νυχτερινά ταξίδια, ηλιόλουστες φαντασιώσεις, αναμνήσεις και ιστορίες αγάπης και αποχωρισμού.  Στον μεγάλο περίπατο των Tango with Lions οι γλυκόπικρες μελωδίες και οι ονειρικοί στίχοι συναντούν γεμάτες ενορχηστρώσεις. Το αποτέλεσμα είναι μοναδικό: ατμοσφαιρικός ηλεκτρισμός με σκοτεινά ξεσπάσματα, μυσταγωγικές μελωδίες τρομπονιού, ένα παλιό πιάνο και ένα σκοτεινό και στιβαρό rhythm section, διατηρώντας πάντα την ιδιαίτερη ατμόσφαιρα που πλανάται γύρω από τη φωνή της Kat.

Το “A Long Walk” κυκλοφορεί σε cd, βινύλιο και digital album από την Inner Ear. 

Tango With Lions είναι οι:
Κατερίνα Παπαχρήστου – φωνή, ακουστική κιθάρα, πιάνο
Γιάννος Παραμυθιώτης – ηλεκτρική κιθάρα, φωνητικά
Νίκος Βεργέτης – ντραμς, percussion, φωνητικά
Jim Staridas – τρομπόνι, φωνητικά
Θοδωρής Ζευκιλής – μπάσο, φωνητικά

Their debut album, "Verba Time", has received enthusiastic reviews and the song "In A Bar" has broken a record of views on youtube. Tango With Lions return this spring with their highly anticipated second album, "A Long Walk". Their musical path during the last four years could be compared to a long walk. The project of Kat (Katerina Papachristou) began as a changing group of musicians and has grown to be the stable lineup of the band that recorded "A Long Walk".
   
With the compositions and lyrics of Kat as a starting point, the band took their time to arrange the 10 album songs with continuous pre-production and rehearsals during the last two years. The recordings began in summer 2012 and were completed in January 2013 by Thodoris Zefkilis in SCA studio.
 
As in "Verba Time" so here, every song is a small story, but this time the stories are self-contained, with routes through dark dreams, night trips, sunny fantasies, memories and stories of love and separation. In Tango With Lions’ long walk bittersweet melodies and dreamy lyrics encounter rich arrangements. The result is unique: atmospheric electricity with dark outbursts, mystic trombone melodies, an old piano and a dark and solid rhythm section, always maintaining the special atmosphere that hovers around Kat’s voice.

“A Long Walk” is released in cd, vinyl and digital album from Inner Ear.

Tango With Lions are:
Katerina Papachristou – voice, acoustic guitar, piano
Yannos Paramithiotis – electric guitar, vocals
Nikos Vergetis – drums, percussion, vocals
Jim Staridas – trompone, vocals
Thodoris Zefkilis – bass, vocals
