Echoes by The Rapture
Echoes is an album by The Rapture, released in 2003. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 9 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Sister Saviour”, on 9 lists with a best position of #61.
Echoes, the Rapture's first full-length album, came out on September 8, 2003 on DFA and Output in the UK, with a US release through DFA, Vertigo and Universal following on October 21. The New York band co-produced it with the DFA, recording at the team's own Plantain Recording House studio in the city, and it's the sound of post-punk dragged onto the dance floor and made to sweat.
This is the classic lineup: Luke Jenner on lead vocals and guitar, Mattie Safer on bass and sharing the mic, Vito Roccoforte on drums and Gabriel Andruzzi on keyboards, saxophone and percussion. Jenner and Safer's harmonized hooks cut through a clatter of disco hi-hats, acid house squelch and wiry guitar. The Rapture were forerunners of the dance-punk revival, and this is what that sounded like. Pieces of the People We Love followed in 2006.
