Now over twenty years together as a working duo, Hammock continue their remarkable string of sonic explorations with A Moonrise Was the Second Coming. This project, a sequel to Hammock’s previous album, The Second Coming Was a Moonrise, captures a time of exploration, when in his late teens, Byrd and a friend, under the influence of psychedelics, mistook the moonrise for the second coming of Christ. 

From Hammock’s Marc Byrd: “It’s believed by some that after an event called the Second Coming, certain things will be left behind and cast into a lake of fire. The songs on A Moonrise Was the Second Coming come from the same sonic universe as The Second Coming Was a Moonrise. But unlike those poor lost souls cast into the furnace prepared for the Devil and his angels, we just couldn’t leave these songs behind.

So maybe the only Second Coming we’re getting is a moon rising over the horizon, music that makes the heart ache, and the slow realization that we’re still losing the ones we love — and that it hurts because they’re the ones we love . . . And like so many things, these songs make more sense when connected to the ones that came before them. Maybe we do, too.” 

Byrd and Thompson, both primarily guitarists, have found their musical bonds becoming ever stronger as their shared work grows even more dramatic and richer over the years, pursuing a feeling of sweeping, shimmering sonic awe that can never simply be summed up as anything other than itself. 

Returning guest performers include regular collaborator Matt Kidd of Slow Meadow adding strings and guitar, Deserta’s Matthew Doty on synths and guitar, Lumenette’s Christine Byrd adding angelic vocals, Chad Howat playing keyboards and bass and Jake Finch adding some remarkable drumming.

Shipping, Local Pick Up, Returns & Cancellations Policies.

SHIPPING:

We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.

Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.

LOCAL PICK UP POLICY:

Due to a large amount of unclaimed local pick ups over the years we have updated our policy. Any orders that remain unclaimed after 90 days from the initial "ready for pick up" notification will be considered abandoned and returned to our system without refund. If you are having issues picking up your order within this time frame please contact us via orders@1234gorecords.com. If you need your order shipped we can easily do so for an added shipping fee.

RETURNS:

Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.

Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.

CANCELLATIONS:

Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.

Thank you for your understanding.
