S4-108 | Local Natives - 'But I'll Wait For You' Coffee + Record Bundle (PRE-ORDER)

S4-108

We are ecstatic to present our 15th installation of the Fuzz Artist Series; a recurring, collaborative project highlighting exceptional coffees and unique creatives.

For this iteration we are elated to join forces with Los Angeles based Local Natives for their first release since 2019's 'Time Will Wait For No One'. Companion record 'But I'll Wait For You' is what the band states is an "exhale to an inhale". A release steeped in catharsis, acceptance, and love; it sonically and thematically feels like a warm hug and much needed beacon of hope. 

Opening track Alpharetta greets listeners with a palette of ethereal production and flawless vocal harmonies setting the stage for what's to come throughout the rest of the record. "Throw It in the Fire" and "Neon Memory" follow with tight percussive drum, bass, and shaker driven numbers graced with impeccable playing and fantastic vocal phrasing. 

Standout track "Camera Shy" sings out in effortless melody and harmony "momentary life takes forever" atop another tight groove. "Ending Credits" gives a welcomed impression of Radiohead's "Everything In It's Right Place" that opens up beautifully as the track progresses. Knockout single "April" is a a memorable melancholy groover that pushes sound of painful longing and hope. 

In the title track closer, Rice sings "Time will wait for no one, but I'll wait for you". Soaring vocals send a lyrical flare to hail mary the album home. Amidst all the chaos, pain, and never ending pressure of time; to pursue love and that which is meaningful, not expedient. 

For the coffee we've brought together a dependable Guatemala with an impeccable, Grade 1 Natural Ethiopia. In the cup expect tons of fruit, a decadent mouthfeel, and acidity that leaves a smile on your face. This a combination not to be missed. 

Enjoy.
