about

Perennial is an art project:

Mod pop, post-hardcore, 60s soul, ambient electronic music, midcentury design, abstract expressionism, French New Wave cinema; it’s all collage material for Perennial.

Formed in 2015 by electric organist Chelsey Hahn, guitarist Chad Jewett and drummer Wil Mulhern, the band is equal parts manic basement show rave-up and studio-as-instrument headphone listening. To see the New England three-piece in person is to experience a 20-minute burst of kinetic energy: dynamic, reckless, bombastic. To put on one of Perennial’s records is to spend almost the same amount of time with impeccably layered studio-as-instrument punk modernism.

The band’s newest release (and Ernest Jenning Record Co. debut), the flexi disc EP Lemon On Plastic, finds Perennial further experimenting with their angular sonic impressionism. Opening with the British Invasion garage rock stomp of “Art History”, the EP spends its five minutes equally evoking early rhythm-and-noise singles by The Who and Small Faces and the art-damaged mood music of Stereolab and Broadcast. An early hint of more studio adventures to come, Lemon On Plastic is the newest and most daring edition of the Perennial Sound.

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer

Dammit every track makes me smile. How did you do that? If a friend recommends this album to you, hang on to them because they're just as fabulously messed up as you are. I'd like to thank my bank for allowing me to buy things online again. Thank you. Everyone. Thanks. duskbringer
