Amyl & the Sniffers Reveal Expanded Edition
Amyl & the Sniffers, the Melbourne, Australia rock band fronted by Amy Taylor, released their sophomore album Comfort To Me last Fall via ATO Records/Rough Trade. Today, they have announced Comfort To Me (Expanded Edition) will be released on vinyl on May 13. It includes 2xLP’s on clear smoke vinyl, featuring the original album, a bonus live LP recorded on a dock outside of Melbourne, a fold-out poster, and new artwork by graphic designer Bráulio Amado. Today, the band have shared taste of Disc 2, with a live version of “Maggot.”
Next week, Amyl & the Sniffers return to North America Following the world’s longest lockdown in their native Australia, the band will tour North America for the first time in almost three years.
Comfort To Me, which was co-produced by the band and Dan Luscombe. With its lyrics largely written during the Australian Bushfire season, when The Sniffers were already wearing masks to protect themselves from smoke in the air, Comfort To Me came together in a 3-bedroom apartment where the four band members quarantined together during COVID-19 lockdown. The result is a less spontaneous and more darkly considered record that masterfully captures the essence of the band like never before. “This album is just us — raw self expression, defiant energy, unapologetic vulnerability,” says Taylor. “It was written by four self-taught musicians who are all just trying to get by and have a good time.”
