younger than yesterday

Arguably the only way to convince someone else of the greatness of any given work is to first establish context and credibility. Well guess what, neither of us have time for that. I'll settle for telling you that this could easily be my favorite album of all time. It is, without question, my most listened to. Chelsea 27099 is a short collection of living, breathing, glowing bedroom synth-pop gems. Musically, their borrow heavily from The Magnetic Fields' early work (Holiday, House Of Tomorrow). The vocals are still in the lower register but breathier and ethereal, more detached and not at all "in your face" like those of Stephin Merritt. Each song is built on soft, warm electronic beats and synth hooks.

Off Axis from The New Lines on Vimeo.



Our long-awaited split 7" single with Still Corners will be available later this month on The Great Pop Supplement. The sides are Off Axis and History of Love, neither of which has appeared on vinyl before.

As with all Great Pop Supplement pressings, quantities are limited and will sell out quickly, so please contact thegreatpopsupplement@hotmail.com for ordering information. Copies should also be available from Rough Trade, Norman Records and from us via bandcamp. We're absolutely thrilled to be sharing a record with such a great band, and encourage you to check out their latest excellent single, Cuckoo.

The second announcement is that our debut full length LP, "All That We See And Seem" will be released on vinyl via The Great Pop Supplement later this year. The album is currently being mastered, and should be available before the autumnal equinox. Further details will be shared as soon as they are confirmed.

We are performing August 18th and September 9th, so if you are in the NYC area please come and say hello.

Finally, a bit of housekeeping- streaming music, videos, performance details, photos, mixes and other ephemera can be found at
Facebook
Bandcamp (a small number of our 7" still available)
Myspace

If you would like to be removed from the mailing list, please reply so, and it will be remedied.

Thanks,
The New Lines

Winkie is Gina and Peter, two Hewson Chen (Vitesse, The New Lines) friends. A side project? Sort of. In his own words:

I have the fantasy that gina and peter will become a post-punk band... recently they have been sending over some vocal stems and here is one of their songs shoe-horned into quasi post-punk style and put to video...

I had been reluctant to post the video (having made it on a lark), but earlier peter seemed "mildly amused" by it, so here it is and maybe they won't strangle me for posting it...?

a video for the people who ask me, "but how do you actually use the thingamagoop in music??" and also just a sort of tour around my slightly revamped pedalboard (basically, less guitar pedals, more analog synth gear)

Vitesse are a two-man studio-only operation based out of Chicago comprised of vocalist/keyboardist/guitarist Hewson Chen (also of Alsace Lorraine) and keyboardist/rhythm section Joshua Klein (formerly of two more rock-oriented bands, Aden and Toulouse).
