Sweetheart - The Process Of Making Us Well [VINYL]

The lost companion EP to The Unbearable Tightness of Being, by Ohio's, Sweetheart. Recorded by the band in a warehouse in Columbus, Ohio, spring 2005.

A single sided 12" record containing one 12 minute song. Limited to 300 copies on 180 gram vinyl and digital.

This record is meant to go together with EW017- Sweetheart- The Unbearable Tightness of Being LP. We highly suggest getting both records.

Sweetheart's latest offering, "The Process Of Making Us Well," serves as an intricate sonic landscape woven with a fearless fusion of genres, defying the established norms of post-hardcore. This one-track EP, released under theExpert Work Records banner, is not just an auditory journey but a rock-solid proof of their ability to blend post-hardcore, noise rock, punk, screamo, emo, and indie influences into an immersive sonic experience that transcends conventional boundaries. Setting themselves apart from the early noughties post-hardcore scene, Sweetheart skillfully navigate away from the cliches that often haunted many underground acts of the era. "The Process Of Making Us Well" unfolds as an epic composition, a 12-minute sonic odyssey that takes the listener on a transformative journey. The band showcases a mastery of dynamics, skillfully transitioning from serene, ethereal instrumentations to intense, powerful crescendos, creating an emotional landscape that captivates the listener from scratch to finish.

Released as part of Expert Work Records' series, "The Process Of Making Us Well" holds the distinction of being Sweetheart's longest recorded piece. The record arrives in a high-quality cardboard sleeve, decorated with an entirely minimalistic lettering, leaving audio content in the sole focus. It's a wise choice, considering that Sweetheart's music deserves your utmost attention. "The Process Of Making Us Well" is an essential exploration into endless possibilities of post-hardcore, noise rock, screamo, and emo music. Sweetheart, sadly overlooked amidst a sea of similar bands during their era, emerges as a beacon of innovation with this remarkable release. "The Process Of Making Us Well" solidifies Sweetheart's status as one of the best bands of their time, a hidden gem deserving of retrospective recognition and appreciation.
