{"product_id":"london-grammar-if-you-wait-2lp","title":"London Grammar - If You Wait [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eLondon Grammar's If You Wait arrived in 2013 as a hushed, cavernous debut built around one of the most arresting voices in British pop. This edition spreads it across two 180 gram LPs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHannah Reid, Dan Rothman and Dot Major met as students in Nottingham, and their first album took a minimalist approach that let space do much of the work. Sparse guitar lines, glacial piano and gently pulsing electronics leave plenty of room for Reid's voice, which moves from a near-whisper to a full-throated swell with startling ease. It's music that feels both intimate and enormous, as if recorded in an empty cathedral at midnight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Strong\" is the emotional peak, a slow-building ballad about vulnerability that became the band's signature song. \"Hey Now\" opens the album with a vast, echoing calm and an air of quiet longing, while \"Wasting My Young Years\" broods over a steady, insistent pulse. Their cover of Kavinsky's \"Nightcall\" turns a cult synth favorite into something ghostly and fragile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's an album for late nights and long drives, where every reverb tail feels deliberate and every silence counts. More than a decade on, If You Wait still sounds like a band discovering just how powerful restraint can be.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57352629190961,"sku":"888430399211","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/London_Grammar-If_You_Wait_2LP.jpg?v=1793989909","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/london-grammar-if-you-wait-2lp","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
