Medical Records is very proud to present the long overdue reissue of
“Shoulder Voices”, the seminal 1993 debut LP released by Rollerskate
Skinny. Originally released on Placebo Records, (a subsidiary of
Beggars Banquet), it has been long out of print and rare to find on
vinyl format. Rollerskate Skinny, formed in Dublin by Ken Griffin, Jimi
Shields, Ger Griffin and Stephen Murray in early 1992, released two 10”
vinyl only EP’s, “Novice” and “Trophy”, prior to the release of
Shoulder Voices. Novice was included in NME’s Top Ten New Band releases
for 1992 while Trophy received Single of Week in the NME. The band’s
name was taken from The Catcher In The Rye ("She's quite skinny, like
me, but nice skinny, roller-skate skinny."). The album, co-produced by
Guy Fixsen (Laika), received many accolades upon release including (CMJ
Magazine Album of the Month). The band toured with many great bands of
the time including Pavement, the Flaming Lips and Mercury Rev. Hard to
characterize, Shoulder Voices is a true masterpiece, featuring elements
of severely catchy pop, heavily distorted guitar and keyboard sounds,
weird experimental passages and other unclassifiable styles. Over the
years, and with revived interest in the early 90’s sound, this record is
becoming increasingly popular with a new cult following, joining the
legions of fans who were obsessed with it the first time round. The
opening track “Miss Leader” is typical of the journey the record takes;
it starts off with a jangly pop sensibility before a wall of guitars
tears the sweet mood apart. “Violence To Violence”, one of the albums
most striking tracks, explodes with jagged guitar hooks while
alternating noisy and ethereal passages share space, evenly, with super
catchy melodies and lyrics. This reissue will certainly appeal to fans
of the experimental pop era that was the early 90s. Features a bonus
insert containing interview with Jimi Shields and Rollerskate Skinny
retrospective written by Sean Kirkpatrick. Presented on high-quality
180gram heavyweight red vinyl.
