There are still a very few copies of the 1st pressing "Hourglass Clear Vinyl" edition available in the Shimmy-Shop,
but the limited-edition 2nd pressing "Sand in Hourglass" edition (limited to 500 copies) is also available now.
Get yours before Time comes to a complete halt. There'll be no additional vinyl pressings of this diaphanous LP, so unless you want to see it only in your Dreams...read what one of America's great novelists wrote about it;
"...there is the mood of loss, some of the greatest devastation of the long career of Kramer, the architect and principal songwriter, made perfect in the dazzling and understated performance of Xan Tyler, you can imagine listening to this album while incrementally sinking into sand, you can imagine listening to this album while gangrene takes away an extremity, you can imagine listening to this album while watching a slow motion factory explosion, you can imagine listening to this album as an autocrat seizes a nation, you can imagine listening to this album as a python devours a small child, you can imagine listening to this album as the subway train you’re sitting in enters a wormhole, you can imagine listening to this album as your spouse turns into a wolverine, you can imagine listening to this album as you begin to paint a chapel ceiling using only your eyelashes. It would be the very best album for any of these things. And because all of this is true, this is
the very best representation of your dreams since, well, Roy Orbison." - Rick Moody (2020)
