The ethereal third album from Texas's slowcore first wavers. A lethargic, sparse, and autumnal album, The Golden Band is where The American Analog Set developed the courage to drive 40 KPH on the autobahn. Issued on Emperor Jones in 1999, this 25th anniversary Numero edition has been remastered from the original tapes and flawlessly reproduced in a gorgeous tip on sleeve. When are you quitting the scene?

The American Analog Set, a band from Austin, Texas, emerged in the mid-1990s amid the rise of Stereolab, the Chicago Sound, and post-rock. Numero Group—which has also begun reissuing indie rock and slowcore classics such as *Duster* and *Acetone*—is releasing this third album on vinyl to mark the 25th anniversary of its original release, following their first two albums. Mellow vocals, rich rhythms, psychedelic harmonies, and ensemble playing. The timbre, acoustics, and layered sounds of vintage equipment. A timeless classic spanning dream pop and post-rock. Remastered and reissued from the original master tapes. (Original Japanese text by Saito)
