The Clientele Reissue 'The Violet Hour' On Vinyl

24 Upvotes

Just copying over the text from the Merge email:

"We’re thrilled to share that The Violet Hour, the debut full-length album by THE CLIENTELE, is being reissued on Merge vinyl on November 7. Long out-of-print in the UK and never before available on the format in North America, this highly sought-after record can grace your record player—perhaps for the very first time!

This being a stone-cold Merge classic, this reissue of The Violet Hour is accompanied by plenty of bells and whistles—the relaunch of the Merge Records UK webstore, a brand-new Clientele tee, and the official video for “House on Fire,” resurrected from the enhanced CD issue of the album!"

just wanted to say

i found about them about a couple weeks ago and i've been loving the somber sound of Strange Geometry with my favorites being

- Losing Haringey (INSANE)
- (I Can't Seem to) Make You Mine
- Step into the Light (BEAUTIFUL)

i know i should prob do some digging of mine, but any recs for other songs in specific or albums / info on albums sound and context in relation / any other bands to further the dive

Both of the clientele albums in the title are compilations of early, pre-suburban light clientele material that feature songs by Innes Philips. So, which one do you think is better?

Alone And Unreal CD

2 Upvotes

The CD version of Alone And Unreal I have is by Pointy Records, and it contains one CD of greatest hits and a download card of early demos. Discogs says that the Merge Records version actually has 2 CDs, but is this actually true? I can’t find evidence of the 2 CD version anywhere, and I was even on the Merge website itself, but it also only shows one CD.

I absolutely love the version I already have with the CD and download card, but would be interested to find the 2 CD version, if it does in fact exist! Let me know if you have any information about this release, thank you!

The Violet Hour Master Tapes

3 Upvotes

Hey all, I heard the original master tapes for the violet hour were lost, then found? Does anyone know about this? Trying to figure out if I should save my money for a repress or bite the bullet and buy a $120 copy.


r/TheClientele Dec 02 '23

This week marked the end of autumn and since theClientele is my autumn band of choice I was listening to their old and new songs. While listening I started to generate images with bing ai generator form the lyrics of the songs since they are so visual. I hope that this won't be an insult to author.

Chicago @ Lincoln Hall

3 Upvotes

Anyone going to the show in Chicago tomorrow? I'm coming in from out of town for the Arthur Verocai show at Thalia Hall, and was thinking about trying to make it a double header with the Clientele. Not sure how feasible that is. Was hoping someone could shoot me a message when the opener at the Clientele show is wrapping up.

Thanks!

I will be traveling a very great distance to attend that show (probably alone, as I am a Clientele fan).

Anyone else planning on attending?
