DD Owen - s/t LP (12XU 091-1)

$14.50

OUT SEPTEMBER 30, 2016. MAIL ORDER SHIPS SOONER

On the heels of an impressive pile of records under the Sick Thoughts, Chicken Chain and LSDOGS monikers, 19 year old Drew Owen left Baltimore, decamped to New Orleans and recorded his first 12" under the DD Owen imprimatur, 8 songs that reflect a new-found maturity, songcraft, enhanced production values and deeply sophisticated worldview.

Alright, at least the part about the record being 8 songs long isn't a total fucking lie.

Features the soon-to-be-smash, "I Shoulda Been Aborted". The only color vinyl on this one is black. There's a download card but it's not like you're getting into heaven any faster by using it.

Drew's currently in Finland where Sick Thoughts are touring with Die Rottz. You can catch him at Goner Fest this September and that's probably a good idea as he's promised this label there will be no DD Owen tour to speak of after this album hits the streets. Man, the selling points are just falling from the sky like golf-ball sized hail, aren't they?

In all seriousness, if you've heard the previous DD Owen singles for Ken Rock, Windian and Goodbye Boozy not to mention some of Drew's other sprawling output for folks including but not limited to Goner, Episode Sounds, Total Punk and Slovenly you already know he's as determined as he's prolific.
