Description

RSD Exclusive, Colored Vinyl, White

Were "The Watchtowers" is the final recordings of Dallas Good of The Sadies, recorded prior to his unexpected passing in February 2022. This collaboration between Good and Richard Reed Parry of Arcade Fire (originally calling their duo "The Watchtowers") had slowly been written and recorded over the course of a decade whenever the two had a spare weekend. "It has been the slowest moving musical endeavour of my entire life," Parry says. "We didn't plan to do it this way, it's just how it happened. Tiny, joyous flourishes of activity a couple times a year for over a decade." Many of Good's collaborators make guest appearances on the album, including Neko Case, Kurt Vile, Yo La Tengo, Jim Jarmusch, John Doe, Jon Spencer, Scott McCaughey, Gary Louris and Margaret Atwood. The album explores the cosmic, psychedelic Americana sounds that The Sadies perfected on 2022's Colder Streams that featured Parry in the producer's chair. The final track on the album "Not in This World" boasts a chorus of over 500 of Dallas' friends and fans from around the world singing together on Dallas' final piece of recorded music. The album is pressed on white vinyl and limited to 1,000 copies worldwide and is exclusively available first at Record Store Day 2026.
