My tape arrived after quite stressful and delayed journey, for a moment I thought it got lost in the mail. What a fantastic 4-track release. "Shaken to Sleep" is a classic slow paced, vocals-led WR witch house track with dreamy melody, giving me some weird (but absolutely pleasant) Neverending Story vibes. "Aessence" is just another proof that witch house romance with grunge music is underexplored. Back in the DISARO era we got ÐOSE's "Teenage Basement", followed up by his Jonny Teardrop alias; but off top of my head I cannot think of many other artists who tried to blend both worlds. Noisy guitar of "Aessence" sits well on the drum track, backed with Adina's singing. The remixed version on side B is also gnarly, more lo-fi rock than WH, but sits so well with the rest of the tracks. The closing "Lower Road (down)" track is a creepy, dragged gem that brings back the best memories from 2010. Really happy with this release, and looking forward to what's next for WR in 2021.

Hey

Do you happen to have a cassette rip of the Aessence remix, I missed out on the tape when they did the Show Me Heaven preorders and this track hasn't leaked anywhere online

Hey! I was just adding the new WR album tape to Discogs, and just now seen the two additional tracks that the limited tape release for Slow Burned included.

Does anyone have a WAV or MP3 rip of tracks 3 & 4?
Unfortunately, the link above for one of the tracks is no longer available. :/ Much appreciated!
