Limited to just 300 copies, Outdoor Miners' new seven-inch is the kind of
thing you're going to want to run right out and get. Three songs packed with
some of the most endearingly honest and strangely sentimental lo-fi Edmonton
has been privy to this year. Fuzzy but melodic, A-side "Twelve Hundred
Dollars" is a soaring and expansive tune that offers the sage advice,
"Everybody, pay your rent." The standout track on the B-side, "Turn You Into
Glue" offers a slower, more bare bones side of the band, a sweeter, loungier
sound which ends with a melancholic solo. As far as seven-inches go, this one
is perfect. I think I might buy another copy for when I inevitably wear the
grooves out of this one.Outdoor Miners
