Van Pelt, The

Artisans & Merchants

First new studio LP in a quarter of a century. Recorded by Jeff Zeigler (The War on Drugs, Kurt Vile), guest appearances by Nate Kinsella and Ted Leo among others. This band, and this album, function as critical missing links that takes one from The Fall to Yard Act, from Television and The Minutemen to Parquet Courts and Sleaford Mods, from punk as a sound to punk purely as an ethos. While any Van Pelt album is a stand alone album, the unique approach they take begs one to enter their world and dig deep in. RELATED TO: The Lapse, Native Nod, St Vincent, Blonde Redhead, Enon, Jets to Brazil, Vague Angels, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, American Football, Texas is the Reason. The lines between post-hardcore, indie rock, and emo blurred on the two mid-90s full-lengths from the Van Pelt. Pitchfork
