LP - Limited Edition Randomly-generated Eco-Mix Colour Vinyl with Poster designed by John Newton of the band. *Please note: vinyl colours are unique to each record due to the use of recycled off cuts from the vinyl manufacturing process. Only 1,000 copies pressed in this edition.

A decade since their very first live show at the now long-closed, but much beloved, Buffalo Bar in London, duo JOHN have become one the UK independent scene’s most uncompromising offerings. There’s been no stark meteoric rise, but a consistent creative incline that has resulted in four acclaimed albums, a UK number 1 vinyl single and an intensely loyal following. Each release displays the coordinates of a creative journey, audibly growing in depth and complexity as the decade's horizons and headlines have shifted.

It is on these solid foundations that JOHN announce their first live release POST-KINO (Live at Scala), recorded at the historic SCALA venue in Kings Cross, London on the 29th February 2024 whilst supporting their last full length release A Life Diagrammatic.

Recorded and mixed by Front-Of-House live engineer James King, POST-KINO consciously preserves the moment without over-sterilisation. The ricochets from the former cinema walls (hence KINO: a term derived from the German Kinematograph film projector) similarly honoured by celebrated mastering engineer Katie Tavini. As with the rest of their discography, the artwork - designed by Newton of the band - is meticulous in its detail, whilst also refusing the high resolution performance photographs that we might expect from such a release.

In a present where fast consumption is all-to-often favoured over digestion and thought, JOHN offer an alternative view, whilst still offering the primal vigour of a band who have honed their craft at many of the very best venues that this world has to offer. 

* Randomly-generated eco-mix vinyl featuring a special 60x60cm poster designed by John Newton of the band. Please note vinyl colours are unique to each record due to the use of recycled off cuts from the vinyl manufacturing process.
