The current line up of Warmer Milks is probably not what it
was yesterday or what it is today. Hell, there is talk of it
changing up for next month. Blame this on schizophrenia or an
urge to not run in circles but it's how things have always
been for the loose group. Founder Michael Turner started
Warmer Milks in 2003 and has refused to go backwards
regardless of outside (or in house) opinions since it's
inception. Warmer Milks have toured by themselves throughout
the United States as well with the likes of Six Organs of
Admittance, Bonnie Prince Billy, Arbouretum, Howlin' Rain and
others The band did an extensive tour throughout Europe winter
of 2007 and will be back on said continent Summer 2008.
Let Your Friends In is another chapter in the more brash,
aggressive side of Warmer Milks catalog. Leaning more towards
skate punk and black metal, the group touched on intensities
left behind from nerd critically acclaimed Radish On Light
(Troubleman Unlimited 2006) but with a more street rock cum
vomitorium feel. The flipside to the first track is a spook
gang romper, drumless yet still punching the walls with a
force no other rock can manage. The "Let Your Friends In"
sessions went down in Shelbyville, Kentuckee at Rove Studios
home to engineer Paul Oldham (Speed To Roam, Bonnie Prince
Billy Band, ex-Broadcast Choir and Royal Trux) where various
members present during the "Soft Walks" sessions (coming March
2008, Animal Disguise) took time to record this scorcher.
Featuring usual WM attendees Michael Turner and Greg Backus
the two lengthy cuts on "Let Your Friends In" also boasts the
addition of Shawn David McMillen (Austin, TX solo artist, Iron
Kite member and former member of Ash Castles) on guitar and
Paul O. on dead wah guitar. Where the group has flirted with
heavy rock in the past, it is easy to say that group now owns
heavy rock.
One time pressing of 1000 copies. Full colour card wallet
sleeves similar to the Nonhorse - Circle Of Flames Cd
