Rerelease of Adirondack with three reimaginings along with the three originals. Notably mixed by Bartees Strange (4AD Records).

B2 Lakes (Original)

Speak, Memory make guitar-driven instrumental post-rock in the spirit of bands like Unwed Sailor, Explosions in the Sky, Appleseed Cast, and American Football . Three years after the release of their breakout EP Adirondack, we are thrilled to release Adirondack Remixed.

PRESS RELEASE:

Adirondack, the Bartees Strange-mixed EP by Oklahoma band Speak, Memory, will see a rerelease. Adirondack Remixed will feature the original recordings along with new remixes of each track. The remixes by Bronte (Lennon from Mad Honey), Young Weather (Dustin Ragland), and Buzzcut (Josh Hogsett/Tallows) breathe new life into these songs three years after the original release.

Originally recorded live over three days in early December 2019, Adirondack’s songs are expansive as the mountain range it was named after. The remixes offer a fresh and adventurous reimagining, pushing the tracks in exciting new directions.

The songs were written prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, having already seemingly found peace with the isolation those times forced upon us. In a world that looks to destroy us every day, Speak, Memory’s latest project is a calm victory, a breath of fresh air after barreling past impossible circumstances, with its three songs capturing the ambitiousness those words imply and so much more, conjuring hope amid uncertain times.

The remix EP will be available digitally and on limited-edition cassette 5/21/24 via Clerestory AV.
 

PRESS FOR ADIRONDACK:
 “We recently posted opening track “Trails,” a glistening, slow-burning track in the vein of Explosions In The Sky, The Appleseed Cast, American Football, and EP closer “Cabin” is in a similar vein, but middle track “Lakes” really changes things up. The track is fueled by a circle-pit punk beat, as the guitars remain clean and beautiful, and Tim sings a little bit on it too. It’s a very cool EP, as you can hear for yourself.” – BrooklynVegan
 
 “Unlike most such no-singing groups, their rhythm section is hyper-aggressive on all three songs: drums and bass play as busy/quick and oxymoronically tight-but-wild as the Minutemen. But instead of punk, garage, or grunge guitar, the guitar goes for a clipped yet dripping-moist, effects-activated, circular-patterned picking style more like the Pale Saints!” – The Big Takeover
 
 “Somewhere between the limitless worldbuilding of early Explosions in the Sky and the mathy noodling of American Football, Miller and his band take the listener on a journey that’s as spiritual as it is grounded in our reality.” – r/indieheads
 
 “It should also be noted that Moving Mountains’ early material (especially their album Pneuma) is a key influence here, so if that interests you, you’ll love what this talented band is doing.” – The New Fury
