Descended Like Vultures

This Vinyl LP comes with a digital download. In 2005, Rogue Wave's 'Descended Like Vultures' on Sub Pop shattered the sophomore - slump myth. Singer/guitarist Zach Rogue was aware of the pressure, saying the title reflects the fear of others turning away. Formed in late 2002 in Oakland, CA, this quartet (Pat Spurgeon on drums, Gram LeBron on guitar, and Evan Farrell on bass) finally recorded an album as a full group in the studio. They spent 10 days with Bill Racine at Supernatural Sound in Oregon City, creating 11 tracks. Inspired by decades of classic rock and pop from Fleetwood Mac to My Bloody Valentine, the album takes you on a dreamy journey. Tracks like 'California' (Mark Kozelek - esque) and 'Catform' (XTC - flavored) offer cold yet insightful views of human nature from Rogue's road experiences. As a unit, Rogue Wave crafted a free - flowing album with balanced tension, release, and resolution. It's a masterfully layered album that reveals new depths with each listen.

To enjoy this album, you can play the Vinyl LP on a record player. It'll give you that warm, authentic sound.
