Gentle Centuries, by Red Pants

Gentle Centuries

by Red Pants

supported by

Andy Mascola Jason and Elsa have tapped into something special on this EP. Gentle Centuries is my favorite Red Pants release of the 2020s thus far. If you're a fan of thoughtful psych rock, post-rock, and/or indie pop, don't sleep on this one. Favorite track: Paper Moon.

about

At some point during the winter Elsa and I took to jamming quietly in my basement and recording everything onto the 4-track. I tend to use it to record demos on, but it seemed like a worthy cause to capture these gentle jams on the tape machine with no real goal in mind. After a handful of sessions we had a decent amount of songs going and we then trimmed the pile down to the five song EP, Gentle Centuries.

Download or cassette purchases come with a bonus EP of the leftover material from the sessions.

  The song Hot Water (along with it’s acoustic counterpart) was originally released on a compilation of one minute songs released by Burst and Bloom Records.

Mandatory Enjoyment

I stood in a room with my eyes closed and palms facing outwards when I heard this live. Nothing else really matters in this reality, just blips of time going and gone and beeps of static. Melodies overlapping and melodic hums take me somewhere else for just a moment <3 Alyssa Seven

GIVING UP "Garner Cardinals"
by Giving Up

The third studio album by this Iowan DIY rock outfit is charmingly shambly and off-kilter but undergirded with strong pop songwriting. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 10, 2018

without the luxury of perpetual lamentation EP
by regal murk

The new EP from the aptly named regal murk is a striking piece of work, thick rivers of guitar swallowing tender vocal melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 24, 2022

Sunday Music For An Overpass
by April Magazine

supported by 20 fans who also own “Gentle Centuries”

Very close to my fave album for 2021. Pipped by American Culture by my reckoning, but a wonderful journey to experience. Raw lo-fi tones to lose yourself in. Soft Purple Sky and Tiffany's Days Go By - so sad when they end. You want to live in these worlds forever. And really who needs sex when you can listen to Blue? Has brought much comfort to a bleak year. David Miller
