ABOUT

Torchbearers for British guitar music, The Vaccines return with their sixth studio album Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations pressed exclusively to zoetrope picture disc, limited to 750 copies and hand-numbered to order.

The title comes from a misheard lyric from Don McClean's "American Pie," a song that for Young fittingly evokes the death of innocence and the American Dream. After he moved to Los Angeles - a city the band has grown up being captivated by - he was forced to wrestle with the disillusionment that comes when expectations, dreams, and reality don't quite meet.

Yet, though Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations is an album about reconciling with loss, it's also filled with gratitude for the people and places we once loved."Pink carnations symbolise gratitude and tell a person they’ll never be forgotten," says Young. "So whether it's the loss of a lover, or a friend, or even just a dream, the record is a reminder that they’ll live on in whatever capacity the mind allows them to. And it's a reminder to keep on dreaming.”

Produced by Andrew Wells (Halsey, Phoebe Bridgers) with Mixing from Dave Fridmann (Tame Impala, The Flaming Lips), Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations is an immediately anthemic addition to the band's discography. With a mammoth five UK Top 5 albums – including a Number 1 with 2012’s Come of Age – and a fierce live reputation forged through arena-filling headline shows and unforgettable slots at Glastonbury and Reading/Leeds, The Vaccines continue to be a vital band in the British rock canon.

——————————————————————-

To get the most out of zoetropes and view the animated effects, we recommend trying one of the following methods:

View or film it through a phone camera with the frame rate set to 30 or 60 fps.
Use a zoetrope or strobe-light app.
Use an adjustable LED strobe light to view it with the naked eye.

For the clearest results, use bright, even lighting and hold your camera steady above the record. If using strobe effects, please be mindful of anyone nearby who may be sensitive to flashing light.
