700 pressing, full colour inners, full colour sleeves + DL. Breaking Gods Heart now gets the essential 20th anniversary vinyl re-issue. Heres what Darren has to say about the record now: Breaking God's Heart is an awkward, over confident start to my career. It's so far away in my past that I have some difficulty in relating to the person who made it. Mostly when I hear it I'm just amazed at the confidence, and possibly arrogance, I had then. I insisted on mostly first takes being used, vocals being recorded live in the room with the instruments, a ban on any reverbs or ambiance being used. It was like I was trying to sabotage my career at the first hurdle. Many of those decisions were based on half understood, interviews with my idols from the American Lo-Fi scene but I really didn't know what I was doing. It does make a bizarre and caustic record though, and I know there are plenty of people who think this is my best work and I never got back to the blunt energy of these recordings. I do see their point. Hefner are running on the same rock-not-rock fuel as early Violent Femmes or The Modern Lovers, and like those groups are expert at building emotionally charged arrangements by adding or subtracting at precisely the right time. 8/10 Drowned In Sound The Sweetness Lies Within, The Sad Witch, A Hymn For The Postal Service, Love Will Destroy Us In The End, The Librarian, God Is On My Side, Another Better Friend, Love Inside The Stud Farm, Tactile, Eloping
