Denver-based four-piece Flaural's debut LP, Postponement, is out today on Staycation Records. The album can be purchased now on vinyl at the Flaural Web Store and digitally via Bandcamp. Following a string of EPs — 2015's Thin King and 2016's Over Imaginary Cigarettes — and produced by James Barone (Beach House, Tennis), Flaural's Postponement developed over a trying three years for the experimental rock band. On March 27, 2017, frontman Collin Johnson's father passed away after a long struggle with ALS. The album's cover artwork serves as an homage to his death: an image resembling a clock with hands that read 3:27; and the album's first single, “The Thinker,” tells the story of his illness. “The Thinker” was originally written following his father's diagnosis, with Johnson singing, “Nobody likes when you're not well / Come up, come up, and feel better now.” The song's lyrics were reworked after he passed, adding the line, “Unanswered questions still haunt me.” The emotional track ends with a dark, hectic, instrumental frenzy of piercing baritone saxophone squeaks layered over sporadic, aggressive guitar and driving drums. “'The Thinker' definitely set a tone for the album in the sense of hardship and having no way out but just dealing with the way things are,” Johnson recalls. “Trying times have no grace and that manifested through the rest of album.”
