Disassembled Man

After their more blues and stoner rock oriented debut EP Driving South and its corresponding live derivation Driving Live, Red Tape Redemption steps outside their comfort zone and presents with DISASSEMBLED MAN a more folklore and atmospheric acoustic EP.
The idea of doing an acoustic EP evolved from the second track Disassembled which is usually played by the band in a heavier and more doom oriented fashion. Since the track seemed to work well with more synthesizer layers applied, but could then not be performed within the usual two-piece set up of Red Tape Redemption, an alternative acoustic version of Disassembled was arranged and the idea of a short acoustic EP started to evolve.
After the opening track Better man was written, the band set-up some microphones in the drummer’s living room and recorded DISASSEMBLED MAN in two takes. Additionally a video of the recording session was recorded and will be available on the bands YouTube-Channel.
