{"product_id":"affirmations","title":"Affirmations","description":"\u003cp\u003eReally Good Time are a three piece rock band from Dublin, compared to a blend of QOTSA\u003cbr\u003eand The Walkmen on Lamacq’s roundtable.\u003cbr\u003e“Our debut album 'Affirmations' is a collection of songs about turning inwards when this\u003cbr\u003efresh hell becomes too much. Why not fixate on some petty anxiety instead? You'll probably\u003cbr\u003efeel better?\"\u003cbr\u003e“It's easy to look at the horrors unfolding around the world right now and just switch off, give\u003cbr\u003ein to your own powerlessness and say 'fuck it, it's all fucked anyway'. The culture and attention\u003cbr\u003eeconomy that suckles it almost seems to demand this from us.”\u003cbr\u003e“That feeling must be spat out and rejected.”\u003cbr\u003e“Lurching from one panic attack to the next, our album ultimately seeks a rejection of navel\u003cbr\u003egazing nihilism - by recognising how easy it is to slip into, then pointing at it and laughing;\u003cbr\u003ewhether that's trying to escape the indignity of other human bodies on a crowded Dublin bus\u003cbr\u003eby glueing your eyes to a phone, or a stream-of-consciousness existential breakdown about\u003cbr\u003efinding Bob Dylan on an episode of Pawn Stars.”\u003cbr\u003e“Go climb a tree, scream into a pillow, and tell your friends you love them. Oh, and buy our\u003cbr\u003erecord. Buy it twice?”\u003cbr\u003e“Affirmations” rounds up recent singles “Shit One”, “Bob Dylan was on Pawn Stars in 2010”\u003cbr\u003eand “Do It”, the latter of which is currently being used across RTÉs national coverage of the\u003cbr\u003eFIFA World Cup. The album’s singles to date have been praised by The Sunday Times, DIY,\u003cbr\u003eClash, The Line of Best Fit, Nialler9, The Thin Air and more, while being supported by the likes of\u003cbr\u003eBBC6, Radio X and RTÉ at radio.\u003cbr\u003eThe band will support “Affirmations” this Autumn with their most extensive tour to date, with\u003cbr\u003e27 dates across the EU, UK and Ireland, bringing them to several new countries for the first\u003cbr\u003etime (Spain, Portugal, Denmark, Sweden, Norway)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CHROMER INDUSTRIAL","offers":[{"title":"Navy Vinyl","offer_id":54186240868679,"sku":"TRI-74900","price":30.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/9779\/5655\/files\/image_25c30c40-eaed-4971-adf0-7bfbaaed8299.png?v=1781871752","url":"https:\/\/towerrecords.ie\/products\/affirmations","provider":"Tower Records Dublin Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
