Dream Backwards: Vinyl 3LP

Percolating in the same watery diner coffee that spawned American Football and Hum, C-Clamp shrugged on and off the ’90s slowcore and emo scenes in a hurry. Compiled here are the band’s two albums for the venerable Ohio Gold label— Longer Waves and Meander + Return, plus a third LP of singles and compilation tracks, and a meticulously annotated book stuffed with lyrics, photos, flyers, and ephemera from their all-too-brief existence. This one’s colder than a Chicago winter— better plug in that space heater.SIDE A1. Passing2. Ten Degrees Arc3. Bats4. A Stand StillSIDE B5. Glass Walls6. Morning7. Fox and the Hound8.
