Yeasayer: Amen & Goodbye Vinyl LP

Fourth studio album from Brooklyn’s Yeasayer. Amen & Goodbye was recorded by the band in the wilderness of upstate New York. Yeasayer seems to draw influence from a wide array of sources and this album is no different. They’ve released albums with traditional instrumentation and others that were more electronic. With Amen & Goodbye they take their music in both directions. Every song seems stuffed with a multitude of ideas. Includes the songs: “Silly Me,” and “Prophecy Gun.” Thirteen tracks in all. Released by Mute on black vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with a download code.
