Maps For Sleep 1991-1994 (Reissue)

Double Vinyl

Formed in the Fall of 1991 by Brandon Capps, half string created a lush, guitar-driven brand of pop. While the group shared an aesthetic with much of the British shoegaze scene, and occasionally recalled the spirit of early 4AD and Factory Records, they certainly carved out a beautiful noise of their own. During their austere six-year life, half string inspired an underground music scene in their hometown, and gained a small but loyal following from beyond the desert. This is the fifth addition to Captured Tracks' recently launch Shoegaze Archives series.
