about

Words from the label:

“At Wrong Speed we love a seven inch or EP of music written specifically for the format. We love those Guided By Voices singles packed to the capacity with songs, or the Drag City singles where bands treated the format as a snapshot as opposed to promo for something bigger (an album). It seems to free some bands to work like this so we suggested that Thomas House (aka Sweet Williams) might want to have a go at something similar. It turned out he was as much of a fan of the EP format as we were, and he came back to us quickly with the Tweezers EP.

6 songs that revel in their brevity, crammed tight into a 33rpm seven inch with total disregard for audiophilia. Each one a miniature universe, expertly cropped and arranged into a musical haiku like only House can, sketchy and fragile without ever feeling breathless or rushed. If this were 1996, we’d have pressed and sold 10,000 of these. It’s 2022 though so we did 100 but they flew out of the door faster than any other release, reviving our faith in humanity in the process. Rightly so though, this is genius shit”
