Noisy and immediate, cryptic but heartfelt, they draw inspiration from punk, dub, power-pop and experimental sounds, and bring them all together in explosive inspiration. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver their two prior summers on Matador, Lifeguard’s EPs carefully documented the band’s early, earnest, studio explorations. But their tremendous live shows, anchored by Lowenstein’s rock-steady backbeat, hinted that something greater was waiting in the wings. On Ripped and Torn, the barbed-wire sound frames Slater and Case’s newly rich two-part harmonies and collagiste lyrics. Producer Randy Randall (No Age) captures a claustrophobic scrappiness that conjures the feeling and energy of the house parties and live shows, where ears are easily overwhelmed, and ragged improvisations connect with the same force as melodic hooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe band remains a singular and intimate space where freedom, noise, and melody find visceral form. “The physical element is something we’re all very together on,” explains Slater. “The immediacy of making music. The instant pleasure and satisfaction of it.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 A Tightwire\u003cbr\u003e2 It Will Get Worse\u003cbr\u003e3 Me and My Flashes\u003cbr\u003e4 Under Your Reach\u003cbr\u003e5 How to Say Deisar\u003cbr\u003e6 (I Wanna) Break Out\u003cbr\u003e7 Like You'll Lose\u003cbr\u003e8 Music for 3 Drums\u003cbr\u003e9 France and\u003cbr\u003e10 Charlie's Vox\u003cbr\u003e11 Ripped + Torn\u003cbr\u003e12 T.L.A\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43101831790726,"sku":"MAT2145.2","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/2959\/9806\/files\/lifeguard-ripped-and-torn.jpg?v=1770322669","url":"https:\/\/www.parasolrecords.com\/products\/lifeguard-ripped-and-torn-cd","provider":"Parasol Mail Order","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
