Magnetic Eye Records is thrilled to announce
MEANTIME [Redux], which sees 15 artists including
ROSETTA, FUCK THE FACTS, KEN MODE, MEEK IS MURDER,
and IRONWEED take on Helmet’s classic Meantime album
in full, along with additional tracks from Helmet’s catalog.
Says Magnetic Eye founder Mike Vitali:
“The first time I heard “Unsung,” I immediately fell in love...
the drumming, the guitar attack, the disengaged vocals
and the Brooklyn grit all captivated me, as it did for many
others. Meantime was a post-hardcore masterpiece. It was
new, raw, and an amazing record that had me completely
hooked from start to finish.”
Meantime was the defining noise-rock release for many of
us coming of age in the early nineties, and bringing together
the bands to pay homage to a work of this magnitude was
tremendously rewarding.
Covering an artist’s album from start to finish is like
writing them the ultimate love letter, as if to say, ‘the work
you made influenced us all so deeply, and we want to show
you how thankful we are that you created this.’
Meantime is a masterpiece, and Magnetic Eye’s intention
in bringing these fantastic heavy bands together is to honor
the legacy, nearly 25 years later, of the awe-inspiring record
that Helmet made.
