{"product_id":"adam-green_friends-of-mine_2025_mdl","title":"Friends Of Mine","description":"On June 9, 2023, Capitane Records will re-release Adam Green’s *Friends of Mine* for the album’s 20th anniversary. For fans of Green and his band \"The Moldy Peaches\", it may be hard to believe that twenty years have passed since the early 2000s, when the independent rock world was set ablaze by a new generation of artists, performers, and songwriters. The results ranged from straight-up rock and roll to punk with a songwriting consciousness, inspired by folk. It was following the success of his band The Moldy Peaches (who signed with The Strokes to Rough Trade Records in 2001 and subsequently toured with them) that Adam Green wrote and recorded “Friends of Mine,” the landmark album that would set a new direction for his career. Moving away from the home-recorded 8-track analog sound of his previous albums, Green embraced what then felt like a high-fidelity sound, with a full band, crooning vocals, and a string section (with arrangements by Jane Scarpantoni). “Friends of Mine” draws inspiration from the works of Serge Gainsbourg, Scott Walker, and Frank Sinatra, while its lyrical content appears to be derived from symbolist poetry and the surrealism of Brecht and Dylan. Songs like “Jessica” would become anthems for a new generation of young indie rock fans, both in the United States and Europe.","brand":"Adam Green","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56383647777112,"sku":null,"price":20251222.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3700398728001.jpg?v=1768331178","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/adam-green_friends-of-mine_2025_mdl","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
