Shriek + Variations

<div class='description'><p>In 2014, Wye Oak released Shriek. It was a necessary departure for Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack, who found themselves on uncertain ground after two years of constant touring for 2011's Civilian, living on opposite ends of the country and trying to revitalize their creative partnership. Wasner set aside her guitar for a bass. Stack took on the band's upper register, playing syncopated, meditative keyboard parts that interacted with Wasner's voice. During that period, Wasner and Stack were introduced to composer William Brittelle, the Metropolis Ensemble, and the Brooklyn Youth Chorus. His orchestral reimaginings of five songs from Shriek (Shriek: Variations, if you will) are the centerpiece of this package, which serves not only to mark the tenth anniversary of a great album, but to demonstrate the richness of Wye Oak's compositions. 2-LP is two discs pressed orange swirl vinyl in a gatefold jacket + a printed insert for album download.</p></div> <br><ul><li>Disc 1, Track: 1 - Before<li>Disc 1, Track: 2 - Shriek<li>Disc 1, Track: 3 - The Tower<li>Disc 1, Track: 4 - Glory<li>Disc 1, Track: 5 - Sick Talk<li>Disc 1, Track: 6 - Schools of Eyes<li>Disc 1, Track: 7 - Despicable Animal<li>Disc 1, Track: 8 - Paradise<li>Disc 1, Track: 9 - I Know the Law<li>Disc 1, Track: 10 - Logic of Color<li>Disc 1, Track: 11 - <li>Disc 1, Track: 12 - Before<li>Disc 1, Track: 13 - Shriek<li>Disc 1, Track: 14 - Sick Talk<li>Disc 1, Track: 15 - The Tower<li>Disc 1, Track: 16
