The second in a series of two heartbreakingly beautiful records from Akron, OH's Talons'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTalons' is the solo project of one Mike Tolan (of The Six Parts Seven) and a longtime friend to our collective consciousness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMike has been a prominent Akron OH songwriter for about as long as I have been doing music -- Maybe longer. His songs are heart-achingly confessional and beautiful and his influence can be heard across our bands but throughout contemporaries in both the ambient and low-fi singer songwriter space. Think Wild Pink meets Joan Of Arc meets Balmorehea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith this, we bring you Mike's 2022 record Pandemic Divide -- a beautifully recorded LP, unlike work Mike has done previously. This time, focused on lush electronics and ambient space, Pandemic Divide comes with a (somewhat) higher production value and Mike takes the listener on a journey which seemingly feels more optimistic than previous works -- although I'm sure Mike would be the first to challenge that notion. A gorgeous LP about navigating the circumstances surrounding 3 years of living in a global pandemic. A captivating look into a strange time and one we felt worth sharing for home audio consumption.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePut headphones on for this. Bliss out. It's very rewarding.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe inserts were handmade by Mike himself and the vinyl comes in a single colorway of metallic copper to match the jacket.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tone Deaf Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49483772100848,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0053\/3315\/5912\/files\/Talons.jpg?v=1774911764","url":"https:\/\/tonedeafrecs.com\/products\/new-talons-pandemic-divide-lp","provider":"Tone Deaf Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
