Dean Blunt – Black Metal (Vinyl)
‘Black Metal’ however, is a tour de force that obliterates its predecessor.
Jangly opener ‘Lush’ features vocalist Joanne Robertson and sounds like The Brian Jonestown Massacre, as does ‘100’. Elsewhere, there are excursions into electronic jazz (‘Hush’, ‘Grade’), soulful mixtures of folk and hip-hop (’50 Cent’, ‘Blow’), and noisy unclassifiable flights of fancy (‘Country’, ‘Hush’).
‘Forever’ and ‘X’ form an epic centrepiece, two tracks that merge into a dirge of saxophones, broken beats and maudlin piano, ending with Blunt lamenting, “He ain’t never coming back”.
Complex, original and even sincere, it’s a brilliant new departure. (N.M.E.)

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.
