The Dead C - Trouble (Vinyl)
Trouble is The Dead C’s first full-length album since 2013’s Armed Courage, and while the band has only aged three years since then, the accumulated weight of decades is everywhere. That weight, though, is no hindrance. Instead, it’s wielded like an industrial machine on “One,” the first of the album’s five, number-titled tracks.
Halfway through its twenty-minute sprawl, the song splits open just wide enough to hear Michael Morley’s ghost-moaned vocals, a sound halfway between a mumble and a hymn.
Similarly long, “Four” is tauter—a strangulated barrage of wah-pedal feedback, washed in jazzy, impressionistic cymbal-work. As it picks up steam, it collapses spectacularly under its own mass.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
