A lot has happened in the career of Australian act HTRK since this debut album landed in 2009, but this 25th anniversary reissue is set to celebrate where it all began. Produced by Lindsay Gravina and Rowland S. Howard, Marry Me Tonight was first issued through Blast First Petite, with Ghostly International swooping in to take care of its legacy on vinyl. Built around the core of Jonnine Standish and Nigel Yang, this formidable record also featured original bassist Sean Stewart, who tragically took his own life the following year. - Flying Out
HTRK step into their 21st year on reflective terms, launching a series of collaborations, covers/remixes, installations, and performances alongside the new repress of their full-length debut, Marry Me Tonight. First released in 2009 via Blast First Petite, the album saw its first vinyl pressing in 2015 via Ghostly International and has since been out of stock. Marry Me Tonight now becomes available in limited edition pink and black vinyl. Few groups in history elevate mood to such singular, smoldering supremacy as the Australian duo of Jonnine Standish and Nigel Yang, aka HTRK (or "hate rock" if informed). Across two decades of work and wounds, HTRK’s sound has shape-shifted between densities and intensities, noise and nakedness, but never wavered in its delicate poetic gravity. In HTRK’s sound world, cavernous reverberations of dub techno are mixed with frosted post-punk motifs and the gravelly imperfections of industrial, reimagined in the setting of a dingy basement.
