Informed by the future, the new 3-track 12" from lorelei now available from tonevendor. The tracks are "Work where chemicals fall", "Monitor" and "Deliberate speed rupture". These tracks were started back in the '90s and finished in the naughts. The original lorelei sound is present, with a few new twists.

lorelei is a three piece group that created a blueprint for post-rock with the Everyone Must Touch the Stove full-length lp/cd on Slumberland Records. Fractured songstructures and a dynamic sonic pallette have helped lorelei stand the test of time.

A complete band discography is maintained by Stephen Gardner, better know as Chessie. Davis White currently records in a few projects. One time lorelei guitarist Dave Cerf is now a member of Threnody Ensemble.

We recorded a cover of Silver Apples' Osciallations just before going on hiatus. The cover appeared on a cd compilation that is possibly no longer in print thus we've provided the mp3 below.

In addition, here is an early version of Today's Shrug, the first track on Everybody Must Touch the Stove. It was salvaged along with some other 4 track recordings. It is certainly not better than what ended up on the album but is presented here so folks can hear how we processed demos into better tracks.
