{"title":"Grouper Vinyl Records","description":"\u003cp\u003eGrouper is an ambient, experimental music project created by American musician and artist Liz Harris. The project began in 2006 and has released seven full-length studio albums. Harris has also released a series of EPs, singles and collaborations with other artists, as well as soundtracks for film and television.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrouper's standout albums include Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill (2008), A I A (2011) and Ruins (2014). Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill is considered by many to be Harris's most acclaimed work, with its complex and layered soundscapes. A I A is a two-part album consisting of dreamy, ambient sounds, while Ruins is a more experimental and melancholic record.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrouper's standout songs include \"Heavy Water\/I'd Rather Be Sleeping\" (2008), \"Vital\" (2011) and \"Made of Metal\" (2014). \"Heavy Water\/I'd Rather Be Sleeping\" is a haunting and beautiful track that showcases Harris's unique sound. \"Vital\" is a somber and atmospheric song that highlights Harris's ethereal vocals, while \"Made of Metal\" is a more upbeat and upbeat track.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn interesting fact about Grouper is that Harris has released all of her music independently, without the support of a record label. This has enabled her to retain complete creative control over her music and to experiment with different sounds and styles.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"grouper-dragging-a-dead-deer-up-a-hill-32557","title":"Grouper – Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill","description":"\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003e Brand New\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShips from: \u003c\/strong\u003e Melbourne\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n\n\n\n\u003cul class=\"tabs\"\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003eDescription\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRelease details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTracklist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tabs-content\"\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Description tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDreamy pop about love, despair and the very last hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePortland, Oregon-based Liz Harris, aka Grouper, has earned herself a not-insignificant fan base in terms of numbers with the whispered, almost ambient-like vocal excursions of Grouper's debut album \"Way Their Crept\" and its follow-up \"Wide.\" \"Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill\" marks a departure from the fuzz experiments that have become a sorry trademark, taking Harris' voice to new heights and into the world of dream pop à la Cocteau Twins and This Mortal Coil. But instead of being in awe of the references, Harris takes her luck in both hands and creates near-perfect pop songs. Set to stripped-down guitar figures and noise loops, Grouper's song structures seem both familiar and otherworldly. Harmonies and vocals nestle in the consciousness, making \"Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill\" an irresistible experience. A future soundtrack for love, despair and the very last hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReviews\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \"​Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill offers moments that are just as memorable as the entire album, and all of them are subtly, but stunningly, beautiful.\"​ Allmusic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"​There's a deeply meditative, almost spiritual beauty to these tracks; a melancholy that's simultaneously strangely hopeful.\"​ DrownedInSound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"​There's no doubting this is a record with a human force behind it.
