Eskimo Joe have scheduled the third of their reissues with the 2009 album ‘Inshalla’ next on the list.
2001’s ‘Girl’ and ‘2011’s ‘Ghosts of the Past’ have also been remastered, expanded and re-released. The new edition of ‘Inshalla’ will come with eight addition songs including B-Sides and the Eskimo Joe contribution to ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’ soundtrack ‘Thunderclap’.
“So much of the music and stories we had written in Eskimo Joe in the past had been about living in Fremantle and looking out at the world,” Eskimo Joe frontman Kav Temperley says. “This time, instead of stories about life in Fremantle, our stories were now written sitting in El Fishawy Cafe in the old market place in Cairo, or walking around Soho in New York; places where we were always strangers.”
‘Inshalla’ was a number one album in Australia in 2009. The album was produced in Byron Bay by Gil Norton (Pixies, Echo & The Bunnymen, Foo Fighters).
“It was there, amongst the huge tropical bugs and golf ball-sized hail stones, the album took shape,”Kav recalls. “We found ourselves pushing harder in the studio, trying to come up with new sounds and song structures. We had grown up on bands like Pixies, and on albums like The Color And The Shape by Foo Fighters, and Gil Norton is credited with inventing the quiet/loud verse/chorus that became the blueprint of Nirvana’s sound. It was a buzz to work with one of our heroes and hear all his fantastic stories.”
