Tortoise's 1998 masterpiece TNT stands as a defining moment in post-rock history, following their critically acclaimed Millions Now Living Will Never Die and cementing their reputation as pioneers of instrumental, postmodern soundscapes. Recorded over the course of a full year from November 1996 to November 1997 at SOMA Electronic Music Studios, the album showcases the band's meticulous approach to crafting complex, layered compositions that blur the lines between electronic experimentation and organic rock instrumentation.
This 2020 repress on stunning clear with hi-melt white colored vinyl captures every nuance of the album's carefully constructed sonic architecture, from the tide-like cymbal washes and immortal guitar lines of the opening title track to the beloved minimalism of "Ten-Day Interval." Packaged in a premium gatefold jacket with spot UV printing, this double LP edition offers collectors both superior audio quality and striking visual presentation of an album that continues to influence musicians and captivate listeners decades after its original release.
