Hello & welcome to our eBay store. Limited pressing on red vinyl with a bonus 7" record containing exclusive songs! Order now or pay crazy money on eBay later... Sebadoh, legendary pioneers of lo-fi, return with their first new full-length LP in 14 years, Defend Yourself. Lou Barlow speaks on putting the album together with longtime co-writer Jason Lowenstein & Bob D’Amico of the Fiery Furnaces on drums after their long recording hiatus:
“Defend Yourself was recorded in a practice space. The Sebadoh was recorded in an expensive LA studio. Defend Yourself was recorded by Jake. The Sebadoh was recorded by a producer & an engineer who got paid...we did Defend Yourself the only way it could have been done, on the cheap &--outside of the mixing of my 6 songs with Wally Gagel-- all by ourselves.
We kept to ourselves during the recording & didn't have much-- if any --outside intervention. That, to my mind, makes it a true Sebadoh record & aligns the style of Defend Yourself with our early releases.
I used more 4 string guitar on this record than any record since Bakesale. Also, we tuned lower & I reverted back to the downstroke strumming style that I used early on. I made a conscious effort to do what felt the most natural as opposed to trying to streamline the sound as I did with some of the songs on The Sebadoh & Harmacy.”
Tracklisting: i Will, Love you Here, Beat, Defend yr Self, Oxygen, Once, Inquiries, State of mine, Final days, Can't Depend, Let it Out, Listen, Separate
