Frigid Stars LP, a 1990 album by one of the earliest slow-core bands, Codeine. The popular streaming sites don’t have the album in its entirety and physical formats aren’t really easy to get.
When you can, they are expensive—on Amazon, you can get a new vinyl if you want to shell out nearly $200 (around ₹15,000). But YouTube has a solution.
Six years ago, someone put up the entire album there and it’s a great way to get acquainted with Codeine’s music as well as the genre that is sometimes also called “sadcore".Paradoxically, when you are sad, it’s often not upbeat, happy music that does the trick for you but the sad kind.
