Pre-Order: LEENALCHI - Sugungga [CD]

""Leenalchi has changed the way I think about music and Korea. I have never heard anything quite like this."" - Brian EnoThis is the first full-length release from South Korea's beloved pansori psych-pop band available worldwide. The release follows an extremely successful and eventful year for LEENALCHI - as if that Brian Eno quote didn't make it clear enough. They had their first-ever North American tour, opening for Japanese Breakfast at Stern Grove, sessions at KCRW and (rumor has it) KEXP, and in the fall, they'll be on the East Coast, including (allegedly) opening for Geese.LEENALCHI is led by the great composer Jang Young-Gyu, who has undoubtedly scored all your favorite Korean horror movies, including The Wailing, Train To Busan, and the Good, The Bad, The Weird. Sugungga sounds like animals talking to each other over tripped-out bass lines. It gets it's name from the old Korean folk tale about a clever and loyal turtle who tries to lure a rabbit underwater and into the lair of a Dragon King who has come down with an illness that can only be cured by the rabbit's liver. What is the fate of the rabbit? Listen to find out. Tracklist: Mao Mao Mao Tiger Is Coming Catch a Rabbit A Fish Map Ultimate Prescription If You Want Me to Say You Know Who I Am?
