UNIFORM DISTORTION was produced by Jim James and Kevin Ratterman at Louisville, KY’s La La Land, with Ratterman also serving as recording engineer. All songs were written by James, who is backed on the album by bassist Seth Kauffman (Floating Action) and longtime touring drummer Dave Givan, with backing vocals provided throughout by Dear Lemon Trees’ Leslie Stevens, Jamie Drake and Kathleen Grace.
“My head feels like it is exploding with the amount of information we are forced to consume on a daily basis, and how that information is so DISTORTED there is almost no longer any tangible truth,” says James. “The name of my new record is UNIFORM DISTORTION because I feel like there is this blanket distortion on society/media and the way we gather our ‘news and important information. More and more of us are feeling lost and looking for new ways out of this distortion and back to the truth…and finding hope in places like the desert where I write this now...finding hope in the land and in the water and in old books offering new ideas and most importantly in each other and love.”

One of James' best albums. But I'm not a music critic so I'll let you decide on the musicality of this album. I will say though that the clear vinyl is beautiful and the record sounds great in analog; the way it was meant to be heard. The album jacket is also of nice construction and delivery was prompt with secure packaging. The signed postcard was a nice bonus. This was my first online purchase of a vinyl record (usually more of a crate digger) and I can say it was pretty exciting to get this in the mail on a random weekday!
