Synopsis

Album Description

Love, the brand new studio album from the incredible Flipper was recorded with the great Jack Endino at the helm, known for having recorded many of Seattle's greatest Grunge albums, including Nirvana's Bleach. Recording took place at the Murky Slough Studios, on Krist Novoselic's property in Washington. Bruce Loose, Ted Falconi, and Steve DePace would regularly travel to Krist's for writing and recording sessions, and affectionately referred to it as 'Band Camp." With Krist providing bass, the band dug in and recorded one of their best efforts yet combing noisy guitars with that perfect low end bass and the grind of life and love. Love was designed to be a twin and companion to Fight. A well balanced experience from the one and only Flipper.

CD Reviews

Back with a vengeance

Michael Hall | Clarkston GA USA | 06/27/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The silence has been broken at long last. FLIPPER is back, and this album is ten times more satisfying than American Grafishy. Admittedly, it starts off a little weak (Be Good, Child! and Learn to Live sound like they were phoned in) but beginning with Only One Answer, Bruce Lose gets into perfect voice (which, as fans know, is perfectly awful) and Ted Falconi matches him with the slow-motion wreck of a guitar sound that we've grown to love. The whole album is a growling, heavy mess of post-punk goodness. For anyone worried, Kris Novoselic works out perfectly here. The basslines were always the most important element of FLIPPER songs and his talents are not wasted. Highlights: Triple Mass, Night Falls, Old Graves."

FLIPPER STILL RULES OKAY !!!!!!!!!!!

"Just when i thought no other band could match Dinosaur Jr's "Beyond" for a "return to form album" FLIPPER release "LOVE" and it's brilliant!! - the old boy's have lost nothing when it comes to playing great punk and Krist Novoselic's bass keeps with the Flipper tradition of having a crunchy bass guitar which is vital for any Flipper album. All the new songs are great - my personal stand-outs have to be "Why Can't You See" , "Triple Mass" and the best song of all is saved till last "Old Graves" 9mins of perfection - this song is right up there with Flipper's all-time great's like "Ha Ha Ha" & "Sacrifice" - calling all Flipper fans LOVE is a must! - 9/10"
