Release info:Tobin's first new solo album since 1999's 'Let's Welcome The Circus People'! Welcome to Tobin Sprout�s new universe, filled with lost planets and phantom voices. �Lost Planets & Phantom Voices� is a decidedly more organic and atmospheric venture compared to �Wrinkled Thoughts�-the 2000 release from Tobin�s full band effort Eyesinweasel. �Lost Planets� shows Mr. Sprout heading back to the basement and tackling the majority of the producing and engineering duties himself. This blissed-out recording (replete with delightful tape saturation - bathed in analog warmth) perfectly captures Sprout�s warm, lissome vocals, electric drones that stand majestically in waves of psychedelic fuzz and painterly instrumentation that has been a constant in the Sprout canon.

Tobin plays the majority of the instruments on �Phantom Voices,� but he also called upon some old friends for assistance: Nick Kizirnis (lead guitarist from the �Wrinkled Thoughts� era, Mulchmen), Jim Macpherson (Guided By Voices, Breeders), Dan O�Connor (Mink), and indie-rock darlings, The Impossible Shapes.

Comes with a button. "Catch The Sun" and "Martini" from the film "Fortunes".
