cannoneer big cartel: abandon hope

cannoneer - abandon hope
i'm not sure how i found out about this band anymore. what i know is that i was listening to some songs of their new e.p. 'abandon hope' at their bandcamp and thought, it was good enough to give them a shot.
musically this pretty much in the vein of the first e.p. 'a blackening heart, an empty mind'. solid stuff but i won't give it a spin very often. the photo on the front cover was, according to the credits on the lyric sheet, made at some friend's attic. i can imagine what this attic looks like but not, why they have chosen this view as cover. strange...
i ordered one of the pre-order version. marbled dark red vinyl. only 50 copies made of this. all the regular colours (100 on white, another 100 on black vinyl) and the pre-order colour still available. the release was handled by three labels, blackheart records, anchored records and chapter13 records. 2013.
