PRE-ORDER: Kramer - And the Wind Blew It All Away Shimmy-Disc LISTEN/WATCH & SHARE: Kramer - "The Rain" Stream / YouTube LISTEN/WATCH & SHARE: Kramer - "The Crying" Stream / YouTube "A blackened composition that makes like a Nick Cave song turned highly confessional [...] the sort of track that will stick with you long after it’s finished playing." - Glide "The atmospheric track underpinned by echoey vocals and soft, layered instrumentals feels like a lullaby before the heart-wrenching lyrics catch up to you." - EARMILK "Beyond announcing Kramer’s first truly solo album in some 23 years, 'The Crying,' both in sound and visual representation, brings us a portrait of an artist that refuses, as ever, to hide behind artifice, to front with any show of false bravado (a phrase that is redundant to point of absurdity), instead proceeding as straight ahead and hellbent as possible through the sheer wonderment of pain and loss and age, damn life’s shitty torpedoes." - Stereo Embers Today, Kramer shares "The Rain," the second single off his forthcoming LP, And the Wind Blew It All Away, due December 3 via Shimmy-Disc/Joyful Noise Recordings. This record will be Kramer's first solo LP of completely original material since 1998's Songs From The Pink Death. Speaking on the track, Kramer wrote: "'THE RAIN' is based upon a dream i had in which i walked a cobblestone street in Amsterdam under a light November rain with someone i knew i'd never see again. I wondered if she wanted me to touch her, as the guilt of never having tried, was killing me. I showed her my right hand, and my five fingers, hoping she might show me how to wipe the guilt away. She pulled her arms away, and said, 'I don't need any more complications right now.' Yes, I'm fairly confident that it was just a dream." On the LP itself, Kramer continued: "A terrifying wind is coming. I recorded this LP as I wondered, through sound and song, if I’ll ever collaborate on making music with another artist by my side again, or live to see another New Year’s Eve, or ever hear my daughter’s voice again, or ever Love again. Time will darken it. It always does. Do I really want to be the last man standing, in a wind like this one?"
