The Liminanas

“The Mirror” b/w “Wunderbar”

unknown quantity, limited pressing specifically for the band’s performance at La Maroquinerie, Paris October 9th, 2015

Damn, these folks are always impressing me. We had a slight window to do their first performance in Nashville in the Blue Room and record it but I ultimately thought that with roundabout only one LP of material it was probably too soon for such a show/recording/release.

Probably my biggest regret in shows we’ve passed on and I don’t regret much. I don’t think they’ve ever come back to our fair city, but have continued to consistently release solid, captivating records.

Gimme a 7” that is pressed specifically for one show by a band I follow this closely and I will have no problem paying the going rate. It’s tricks like this that win me over every damn time. I’m a sucker. It’s okay.

The jams are choice…a-side is quasi-literary in it’s lyrics, using the construct of the secret of making mirrors and the stories that go with them to help drive the tune. I can’t tell if it’s true, but I deeply hope it is, even if it’s propelled/delivered by guest musician Kirk Lake, whom I know nothing about and don’t have the time to start searching. B-side reminds of all the best parts of Gainsbourg, Jean Claude Vannier, Stereolab and the aesthetically elite French style that makes sure beret’s never go out of style, cigarettes look inherently cool, and that there will always be someone who understands art films far deeper than you could ever hope to.
