They were all sold in 2013 except for the Retrospective CD which I still have.In 2015 all their albums were reissued on vinyl. This is the first release from this band led by singer\/songwriter Mak Kozelek. There music has been described as Slowcore for its downbeat tempos,bleak or moody lyrics and simple arrangements. Six demos that secured them a recording contract with 4AD these songs are very personal and emotional utilizing just drums,bass and guitar(mostly acoustic). Two of the songs are around ten minutes in length. &#8220;Down Colorful Hill&#8221; has minimul lyrics but a long repeated fade out that is quite good while &#8220;Medicine Bottle&#8221; is an amazing song about a relationship that went bad. Lots of lyrics in this one although they are not printed ,it&#8217;s a rather depressing song but one of their best. &#8220;Michael&#8221; is about a lost friend. &#8220;Lord Kill The Pain&#8221; is the most upbeat song on the record although the lyrics are not. &#8220;24&#8221; and &#8220;Japanese To English&#8221; are also good. A good glimpse of what would come from one of my favorite bands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t remember how I got turned on to this band,their music is hardly played on the radio,but sometime in&hellip; <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/2023\/01\/06\/red-house-painters-down-colorful-hill\/\">Read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Red House Painters-Down Colorful Hill<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4446","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4446","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4446"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4446\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4448,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4446\/revisions\/4448"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4446"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4446"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4446"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
