about

The idea behind Shamblegloss is simple: Take nine of Hendrix’s most preferred past compositions, add two brand new tracks (Opener “Morning Complaints” and LP closer “Plum Ambient”), and embrace the shoegaze and noise-pop sounds that helped define his early career. It’s a bold shift from the experimental agit-pop of September 2020’s War Is on Its Way, but in many ways, it’s an artist not just embracing his past, but emboldening it.

“I approached the process like I imagine a curator does,” says Hendrix. “My favorite genre of music is shoegaze. I decided I’d pull songs from my records that celebrate different expressions of that sound. It’s a really diverse genre. How can Swervedriver, Medicine, Slowdive, my bloody valentine, Cranes, The Verve, Lush, The Jesus And Mary Chain and Pale Saints all be in the same grouping? They each sound really different. My catalog represents that.”

Hendrix crafted Shamblegloss and the swirling mood around it by taking his music back to familiar grounds: Somerville’s acclaimed Q Division, where he remixed each track and re-recorded drums with engineer Colin Fleming. That includes prior standouts like “Summer Dresses” (a 2012 single), “In This Daydream” (2014 LP Urban Turks Country Jerks), and “Yr Queen Is Dead” (2011’s This Dreadful Mess LP). Adding to the allure was the excitement over hearing his older compositions on vinyl for the first time, giving a new depth to an already enhanced listening experience.
