LEWSBERG - LEWSBERG

Revisit one of modern European underground rock’s finest introductions with the 2019 Dutch repress of Lewsberg’s self-titled debut album. Originally self-released in 2018 under their independent label imprint, the band pressed this secondary run under the updated catalog suffix lb03(2019) to meet immediate international demand following critical acclaim across the UK and European indie scenes. Hailing from the gritty port city of Rotterdam, the four-piece delivers a highly distinct brand of deadpan, minimalist post-punk. The 9-track layout leans heavily into steady, un-embellished Velvet Underground-style chugs, Television-esque interlocking guitar lines, and Arie van Vliet’s dry, spoken-word English delivery. Highlighted by fan-favorites like "Terrible" and the sweeping "Non-Fiction Writer", this reissue features unique voiceover inserts capturing the poetry of Rotterdam writer C.B. Vaandrager. Housed in its original glossy full-color sleeve with an accompanying printed insert, this Dutch manufacturing run is a perfect time capsule of independent, DIY stoicism.
