The Land of Thirst

by World of Pooh

The Land of Thirst cover art

An incredibly obscure and vital bridge between the British C86 scene and the emerging American lo-fi movement. Fronted by Barbara Manning, the San Francisco trio recorded this deeply anxious, beautifully shambolic album characterized by abrasive, detuned guitars and fragile, melancholic vocal melodies. It stands as a fiercely independent, highly influential classic of the legendary K Records catalog.
