Not only is Robert Beatty a founding member of the Kentucky noise act Hair Police, but he records solo works under the pseudonym Three Legged Race. It's under this banner that Editions Mego sub-label Spectrum Spools will release his new album, Persuasive Barrier, on December 3.
The eight-track collection was recorded by Ed Sunspot at Resonant Hole in Lexington, KY. The recorded period stretched across five years, from 2008 to 2012. Though Three Legged Race has released a pile of records over the year, Spools is calling this Beatty's first proper full-length as Three Legged Race.
Judging by a press release, the album promises to be a sonically diverse collection full of melodic soundscapes and more abrasive diversions. Descriptions include "a hot cloud, slowly moving and dripping micro details" and "juxtaposed clatter and wide open space."
See the tracklist below and the downright amazing album art above. You can order a copy of Persuasive Barrier right here.
