This format was built for Helms.
There's no need to rehash every vinyl junkie's ten thousand reasons why an album sounds better on wax, but "Secret Doors" is even warmer and bigger here.
Plus, Dan McCarthy's cover artwork finally has a chance to explore twelve by twelve inches of space. Like Raymond Pettibon with Black Flag, it's hard to imagine Helms without Dan's aesthetics--and this LP makes that clearer than ever. (In his spare time, he's also quite the drummer.)
It's really cool that Boston's best band is also its friendliest. We couldn't be happier to have worked on this project with Helms.
"Secret Doors" is now available on luxurious light blue vinyl at HMRstore.com!
The vinyl will also be available at their show tonight at Great Scott in Allston, with Tiny Amps, BA-NA-NAs, and Mel Lederman. 9 p.m., 9 dollars, 18+.
