Hotline TNT’s Raspberry Moon has been named Rough Trade's #18 album of the year, and to celebrate we have creared an exclusive variant for the shop at Detroit Pressing. The vinyl features a never before seen limited color-way of 'Acai Green Tea' and comes in an alternate sleeve.
The follow-up to Cartwheel, the band’s “exquisite” (Billboard) 2023 breakthrough, Raspberry Moon is the most sweeping and compelling Hotline TNT album to date and, crucially, the first built by a full band.
Funneled into the album are moments of vulnerability and romance, creating a generationally great statement of youthful wistfulness and very adult growth. Some of these 11 songs deal with the sting of regret, of being left or leaving, as Hotline TNT always has. But this is a record animated by a sense of newness and possibility, of pushing back against the global sense that curtains are closing to make room in your own life for new friends. It is perfect music for looking forward, no matter how messed up the past may feel. Lead single “Julia’s War” is an anthem of nascent affection where a simple and wordless chorus of “na na na nah” paints a horizon of possibility.
