POE - THIS ROAD

More than two decades after Haunted, Poe returns to vinyl with This Road, a remarkable new chapter in a career that has always blurred the lines between music, storytelling and the unexpected. Created as part of Poe's collaboration with writer and Alan Wake creator Sam Lake and Remedy Entertainment, This Road brings together the full-length compositions that became an integral part of the worlds of Alan Wake 2 and The Lake House. Rather than simply accompanying the games, Poe's music became woven into their narrative-connecting the fictional universe of Alan Wake with elements of Poe's own extraordinary story. Side A's "This Road" is an expansive, constantly evolving composition that reconnects with the dark atmosphere and trip-hop foundations of Poe's earliest work while moving somewhere entirely new. Recorded live with longtime collaborators, the performance gradually and almost imperceptibly slows over the course of the piece, creating the sensation of time itself beginning to shift beneath the listener. On Side B, the extended "6 Deep Breaths" finds Poe turning anxiety into something almost euphoric. A tense, rhythmic verse gives way to an ethereal chorus as Poe sings, "I feel like I'm floating on air, the nightmare can't have my dream." Within The Lake House, the song becomes part of Poe's fictional escape; outside the game, it's themes of control, survival and reclaiming one's voice carry an unmistakably personal resonance. Produced by Poe and recorded at Henson Recording Studios and EastWest in Los Angeles, This Road was engineered and mixed by nine-time Grammy winner Darrell Thorp, whose credits include Radiohead, Beck, Foo Fighters, Paul McCartney and Roger Waters. Poe has deliberately kept these full-length recordings off streaming services. Outside of the games themselves, vinyl is the only way to experience them. After the first two pressings sold out, This Road returns for a third pressing with another layer added to the story: new hidden graphics within the artwork and audio Easter eggs from Poe and Sam Lake-including Lake's own voice-embedded somewhere in the vinyl.

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.
