![]() NewsThe Wrens Masterpiece The Meadowlands is Released on the 19th September
The Meadowlands will be the most powerful, poignant and cohesive album by an American rock outfit released in the UK this year. On its debut in the USA The Wrens new LP became an indie label phenomenon. It received astonishing plaudits that justified the four years of intense emotion that went into the recording of this masterpiece in the band’s own New Jersey living room. Metacritic.com, which was voted as one of the best websites in 2004 by TIME magazine for collecting reviews on bands from around the world and ranking them in a league table, ranked The Meadowlands as the joint best new album of the year. When The Wrens achieved the perfection you’ll hear on this CD they promptly burnt the multi-tracks! It stands now as a life-altering triumph of music over adversity. It will be released on the 5th September 2005, in the UK and Europe. “The Meadowlands is a magnum opus. Grade: A” The Village Voice - Robert Christgau “The Meadowlands exemplifies what every fan hopes for - that they might have somehow improved exponentially each year they hid from the limelight, resulting in a payoff so cultivated it could be called their defining achievement by consensus. 9.5 out of 10.” Pitchfork- Ryan Schreiber
