£21.99 – 1xLP, Limited Edition Sky Blue Coloured Vinyl

A surprisingly tender and often jubilant set of conversations with the ghosts of painful memories, Schneider transforming her metaphysical scars into gleaming armour as she redefines herself on her own terms.

Following 2020’s ‘Personalia’, an album Schneider created in collaboration with producer and romantic partner Kevin Barnes (of Montreal) – where reviews often displaced credit for Schneider’s intricate electropop to Barnes – ‘wicked jaw’ finds Schneider decidedly and unequivocally at the helm, as the album’s sole producer. it’s a stylistic departure from personalia in many ways, beyond personnel. spanning decades and genres from doowop to cold wave, disco to soft rock, ‘wicked jaw’ has the vitality of full band tracking at its core. recorded to a 24 track tape machine during a weeklong session in the summer of 2022, it features deft and magnificently wackadoo performances from players including Ross Brand (guitar, percussion), Jojo Glidewell (piano, synth, percussion), Zack Milster (bass, percussion, pedal steel), and Clayton Rychlik (drums, percussion, sax) among others.
