Dirty Three Ocean Songs (Vinyl 2LP)

Dirty Three's music has been called lyrical, passionate, original, inspiring, and has earned them admiration and renown across the globe, from their home in Australia, to New Orleans to New York City and back again. Ocean Songs is the fourth major album by the band, originally released in March 1998 by Touch and Go Records and Bella Union. Co-produced with Steve Albini and recorded at Chicago's Electrical Audio, Ocean Songs is a visceral affair built on pure adrenalin and feel. "Possibly the boldest album of our career," notes violinist and bassist Warren Ellis. "Symphonic in its conceit and 100% Dirty Three."
