The Morning Papers Have Given Us the Vapours [Yellow LP]

The Black Watch, the Los Angeles band led by songwriter John Andrew Fredrick, followed 2023's Future Strangers with this ten-song set, written purely for the joy of it. It was made with bandmates and producer-engineers Rob Campanella (Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Tyde) and Andy Creighton (The World Record, Parson Red Heads). Ben Eshbach, formerly of The Sugarplastic, arranged the strings, Lindsay Murray adds backing vocals throughout, and Kesha Rose sings lead on "Oh Do Shut Up."

A Record Store Day 2024 exclusive release (official RSD UK title) on yellow vinyl LP from Dell'Orso Records.
