probably the most anticipated record of the year for this household. the clip below has been on repeat for a couple months. Kye is proud to present 'French Antarctica', the debut LP by Good Area. Drawing from a palette of guitar, rhythm box, cornet, shortwave radio and room activity Good Area have crafted the ultimate stand-alone testament to instantaneous expression. Bypassing such obsolete concepts as dexterity and restraint 'French Antarctica' cuts loose with a raw unbridled rush of creative force, bristling with home-spun malevolence and anti-social aplomb. Good Area harvests the wisdom passed down from the Decayes, Semool, Nishimura Alimoti and other bastions of shoe-box cassette culture and transcribe their teachings into epic new screeds of confusion. French Antarctica arrives in a full color, high gloss sleeve, with commemorative postcard, in an edition of 400 copies.

"Whether they're standing around statues in Philadelphia or letting their dull, cheap, shadow-ring-worthy drum machine incessantly bonk, this couple likes staring you down with indifference. Cornet & guitar either studiously ignore the drum, or don't, but they always studiously ignore each other. Insouciant tension ensues." Weirdo Records
