Additional information
When founding Tunng members Mike Lindsay and Sam Genders reunited for the first time in over a decade for their 2018 album Songs You Make at Night, they delivered a brighter version of their often darkly dreamy electro-acoustic sound. The group's blend of folk and electronic sounds historically lent itself to more foreboding soundscapes, so to hear a Tunng record that was almost hopeful was a refreshing surprise. Tunng Presents... Dead Club goes somewhat in the other direction of the sunny sentiments of Songs You Make at Night, serving as a soundtrack and companion piece to the group's podcast series centered around death, loss, dying, and grief. The album begins with the appropriately eerie seven-minute dirge "Eating the Dead." Grim vocal harmonies, skeletal minor-key electric piano chords, and shadowy synth sounds all drone along before audio snippets from an interview about death begin abruptly. It's a creepy start to an album all about death, but it hardly sets the tone for the entirety of Dead Club. Tunng's gift for obtuse hooks and interesting song structures shows up in the peppy, John Cale-esque melodies and off-time drum programming of "A Million Colours," and a rustic guitar repetition floats atop a rhythm of distorted bass blips and watery samples on "Death Is the New Sex." Songs like these detract from the gloomy subject matter of every song on Dead Club, with enough catchiness and interesting musical moves to take the listener's mind off the intensity of the lyrics. More audio from interviews shows up intermittently throughout the record, kicking off several songs as well as album closer "Woman." The morbid fascination with death that guides Dead Club competes with airy instrumentals. Light, intricate chamber pop arrangements on songs like "Fatally Human" and "Scared to Death" are reminiscent of Kevin Ayers' perky, daydreamy songwriting. The dichotomy of lyrics obsessed with death in songs that tend more towards wiry, upbeat sounds should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with Tunng's tendency to revel in contrasting ideas. The death-centered storytelling of both the lyrics and podcast excerpts works well with Tunng's ever-ambitious blend of mystical folk and futuristic pop, and ultimately Dead Club's perspectives on the great beyond come off as curious and playful where they could have skewed far more fatalistic. ~ Fred Thomas

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

No communication needed with seller, so don't know what to rate with regards to communication (please dont take lack of feedback on this matter as a negative). Thanks again.

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
