PRODUCT DETAILS
If The Julies' last-and first ever-full-length announced a comeback, it's follow-up takes the opportunity to look back. With their new album Cherisher, The Julies lean fully into reflection, memory, and meaning, delivering a deeply personal collection about holding on, on purpose. It's title functions as a tiny manifesto: an embrace of core truths and long-held passions, and of personal nostalgia without irony or apology."I felt in constant threat of succumbing to the whirlpool of the socio-political intensities of the times," says singer Chris Newkirk. "To avoid being swallowed whole, I grabbed hold of the DNA-shaped truths of personal identity that took root and codified themselves in my youth.""And the sonic canvases Alex (Yost) and Patrick (Zbyszewski) were creating became an immersive counterpoint to all that shock and awe," he adds. That said, Cherisher is far from disengaged. Between it's many moments of introspective nostalgia are some declarations of awareness and quiet resistance.Recorded and produced by the band themselves, Cherisher moves fluidly between intimacy and release, with pensive verses giving way to choruses designed with communal energy in mind. The album draws from shimmering post-punk urgency and '90s shoegaze-influenced walls of sound, allowing Alex and Pat, both playing multi-instrumentalist these days, a chance to repurpose the past as well. "We focused on crafting an 'album' and for me that started with finding the right sounds and tones," says Alex. "I was hoping to make something with more grit and edge while retaining our signature dreaminess."Because it was such an insular project, the band felt it was paramount to widen the aperture to outside influence. Mixed and mastered in London by James Aparicio (Depeche Mode, Spiritualized, Mogwai), Cherisher gained the depth, atmosphere and, of course, shimmer, that Alex envisioned. The album subtly expands The Julies' palette as well. "Teenage Sadness" features the first female vocal ever heard on a Julies track, with Olivia Buchholz of synth-pop duo Memory Stitches lending a dreamy sweetness to the chorus.As a band with the inescapable footnote of allowing 25+ years between releases, The Julies are ever determined to operate more in evolution mode than reunion mode. Cherisher is not about reliving the past but conversing with it; it's a record that treats memory as momentum.

By far, my favorite shop to buy from! Always quick with the delivery! Love tyler the creator and I've been searching for this specific vinyl at a good price!
package shipped well. there was a fragile sticker on the box which was nice, most places don’t put that and vinyls get damaged. package arrived in perfect condition.
Good packaging, product was in good condition and showed up on time great album no problems with any of the vinyls either very happy with it.
I am a huge Bob's Burger Fan and found this album as I was browsing the website. I had to get it immediately. I can believe I came across this on a random Tuesday. Can't thank coming across pale blue records enough. And the delivery is super fast. Can't wait for my next purchase.
Super fast shipping, packing done well. Exactly as described. The customer service and product choice is why I keep coming back.
Perfectly packaged, no warping, clear sound. Will definitely purchase from Pale Blue Dot Records again.

Would definitely buy from Pale Dot Records again. The delivery was fast and the records sounds great!
Purchased as a Christmas gift for my 29 year old son. Can't wait for him to open. Packaged with care and timely shipping. Positive experience!
Vinyls arrived in perfect condition, expertly packed, and 3 days from the date of purchase (over the Thanksgiving holiday, no less). Could not be more pleased. Thanks so much!
We received our vinyl fast, it was fairly price, and they had a great selection to choose from. One record we purchased had an issue on the track, and the owner was quick to resolve the issue for us. I’ll be purchasing all of our records from this store moving forward!
The records and the sleeve are really nice. Pacific Dot Records blew me away with shipping it out like, immediately after I ordered it. Arrived well protected and perfect. No complaints.
fast shipping, great communication, and awesome staff. very responsive with messages too. can’t wait to purchase from them again
Records arrived inside the special record boxes, unopened, and in pristine condition. They didn't very long to begin the shipping either. Some places make you wait 3-5 days just to have it shipped out. They did not.
This is not about the product. I've ordered from PBD before and the Vinyls that come from them are wonderful and pressed really well!
This review is more on customer service.
USPS seemed to have goofed around a bit and cause a delay of about 1.5 weeks. Tristan was a highly communicative person and was reassuring with the options I had regarding if my order never arrived. Good sense of humor, accountability, and customer satisfaction. The Sweetwater of vinyl shops. Officially my vinyl go to!
