IT HUGS BACK - INSIDE YOUR GUITAR (LP)

It Hugs Back Inside Your Guitar on Vinyl LP! 

Influenced by the intricate song-writing of Wilco, the sound layers of My Bloody Valentine, the pop charm of The Lemonheads, the textures of Sonic Youth and the DIY aesthetics of the arts and crafts movement, It Hugs Back soon caught the attention of Too Pure Records. Last summer the label took their early singles and released them together as a low-key eight-track EP, The Record Room (also the moniker of their home studio).

Now firmly ensconced in their new home at 4AD (home to The National, Blonde Redhead and Stereolab), It Hugs Back are finally ready to present their debut album, Inside Your Guitar. Self-produced in their own studio, Inside Your Guitar is the result of a year’s labor of love. It is an album that wears it’s heart on its sleeve as Matthew Simms’ softly spoken vocals turn the captivating guitar licks, rhythms and feedback fuzz into something wistful, imaginative and charming.
