    Following an earlier album and two EPs, the acclaimed 2004 'Purplene' LP was recorded at Chicago's Electrical Audio by Steve Albini and proved a significant departure for the band - a mature distillation of brooding experimental minimalism, abstract poetic imagery and cathartic release. Sputnik's review noted, "the record's greatest strength is its shunning of the excesses of the genres it takes its influence from." Members would go on to form Charge Group, Firekites and Palace of Fire.

    The album was originally sequenced and mastered for vinyl, but only found a CD release (via Sydney label Spunk) while the band still existed. Then 14 years after disbanding, Purplene reformed in early 2018 for a run of east-coast shows to celebrate the release of 'Purplene' on vinyl for the very first time on Hobbledehoy Records.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Purplene via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

They're onto us - those people outside
They're gathering
They're all in cahoots

The razorwire's up
But those wooded fields
Still hide those fucking weird people
They're gathering

And I'm watching out for number one

Their pencils are blunt like opinion
But why are their spirits not broken?
It's bothering

But I'm watching out for number one

I know not what they say
They're harbouring something or someone
Those fucking weird people
They're gathering

They're all in cahoots
It's my grand opinion against their cheap opinion

I'm keeping a vigil of faith
We common folk flourish by glancing away
I'm hiding and I'm watching out for number one
Watching out for number one
Number one
