Lunchbox Share Video for Letter from Overend

While we’ve loved Lunchbox in their most recent run, including last year’s excellent Pop and Circumstance, the music from their lost album Evolver has me swooning. Maybe I’m oversimplifying things, but it feels like a mixture of the Vaselines and Heavenly, albeit with these jazzy little pop structures that wouldn’t be out of place on a Stereolab record. All those little pieces course in and out of the latest video to celebrate the album’s reissue, and I think you’ll have a lot of fun just clicking play and soaking it all in. This video is a collection of scrolling photos from what I assume, and hope, is a lifetime of joy playing music and traveling about, fusing the spirit of the song with like-minded imagery. Evolver is getting released on vinyl via Slumberland on April 18th.

Lunchbox Set to Reissue Evolver

Many moons ago (and many emails, Sorry Mike!) Lunchbox sat in their basement in between travels and recorded Evolver back in 2000. But, even avowed Lunchers like myself have not really gotten to indulge in the joys of the record, that is until now, as Slumberland Records have announced they’re reissuing the LP this Spring. We get one listen, and it’s interesting to hear in comparison to last year’s Pop and Circumstance. Sure, there’s a noisy element coursing through the album, built upon a DIY ethos and underground identity, but some of the pop moments and horn usage have always been there, so you get to finally connect all the dots. Grateful to the band and the label for having this out in the world. Evolver is out on April 18th!
