{"product_id":"twisted-teens-florida-water-blues-loser-edition-sky-blue-vinyl","title":"Twisted Teens – Florida Water Blues (Loser Edition Sky Blue Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlorida Water Blues\u003c\/strong\u003e is the new album from New Orleans band Twisted Teens, released on Sub Pop in a Loser Edition pressing on sky blue vinyl. The group describe themselves in deliberately unruly terms: part rock ’n’ roll band, part punk-country collision, with the familiar and unfamiliar treated as the same raw material. That attitude runs through a record built for listeners who like catchy songs with rough edges, regional character and a sense that the band might veer off the road at any moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwisted Teens come from New Orleans, and the city's swampy, humid atmosphere hangs over the album even when the music pulls toward British invasion melody, punk economy or country storytelling. The band has invoked the Kinks, the Rolling Stones and the Buzzcocks in its own description, but \u003cem\u003eFlorida Water Blues\u003c\/em\u003e is less about direct imitation than the collision of those references with south Louisiana imagery and a contemporary DIY sensibility. The result is music that can sound ragged, funny, hooky and strange within the same song.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe thirteen-track set includes “Why Did You Miss It?”, “Hand Me A Cigarette”, “Swamp”, “Florida Water Blues”, “Javelina”, “Weather The Season” and “Dancer”. Throughout, Twisted Teens favour earworms over polish and momentum over neat genre labels. Punk-inflected country and country-inflected punk are both useful descriptions, but neither fully captures the record's loose-limbed rock ’n’ roll personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Sub Pop edition is the Loser Edition on sky blue vinyl and is intended for markets outside North America. For listeners drawn to offbeat alternative rock, garage energy, punk attitude and rootsy American songwriting, \u003cem\u003eFlorida Water Blues\u003c\/em\u003e offers a sharp, lively introduction to Twisted Teens. It is direct without being predictable and playful without losing its grit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a coloured-vinyl Sub Pop edition, it also has clear collector appeal, pairing the band’s loose, irreverent personality with a format that stands out on the shelf without changing the album’s scrappy spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sub Pop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58432983466358,"sku":"SP1751X","price":24.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/6450\/6005\/files\/TwistedTeens_FloridaWaterBlues.jpg?v=1786436343","url":"https:\/\/www.stickyblacktarmac.com\/products\/twisted-teens-florida-water-blues-loser-edition-sky-blue-vinyl","provider":"Sticky Black Tarmac","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
