The Sleeves are comprised of Tara Cunningham & Jack Cooper (both of Modern Nature) - Another record scratching the itch in my brain. Sparse guitar duo play & vocals. Not folk. A constellation of wonderful moments.
Released by 12XU

Pleasure Tax, self titled LP.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
"Make eye contact, but don't stare. Keep hand visible. Ask open ended questions. Roll your shoulders back and smile. The most effective conversation is "Hello, how are you?" Inside jokes are great too for opening up conversation. Ask someone about topics that trigger dopamine."
Pleasure Tax is the solo project of Jeannine Lonardo of Equipment Pointed Ankh / Shutaro's Roadhouse Band. This is the perfect sweet spot for music I NEED TO SURVIVE in the echo chamber of stuck culture... The cross point of post-prog into kraut & post-punk. Driving, borrowing from all things to just make it happen. Don't hold onto my buzz word/genre engineering. Who cares what I think. Just listen.
Incredible lyrics & delivery of everything. Co-produced by Jim Marlowe (EPA/Roadhouse Band/#1 homie) The insert includes a list of all instrumentation for the tracks & a photo of a cat that is captioned "Hello, How are you?" - perfect.
The first LP release on Jim Marlowe's label, Newton's Kidney.
