Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed 2009 2LP 180 Gram Original. White Water, White Bloom is the acclaimed second studio album by Sea Wolf, the indie folk project helmed by songwriter Alex Brown Church. Released in 2009 by Dangerbird Records, the album marks a shift from the intimate, chamber-pop style of Sea Wolf’s debut (*Leaves in the River*, 2007), embracing a fuller, more expansive sound. Recorded with producer Mike Mogis (noted for his work with Bright Eyes), the album features lush instrumentation, including strings, piano, and electric guitars, blending indie rock with folk influences. Standout tracks like “Wicked Blood,” “Turn the Dirt Over,” and the title track showcase Church’s evocative lyricism, painting vivid, cinematic landscapes inspired by nature and personal reflection. Critics praised the album for its narrative depth and sweeping arrangements, which are captured beautifully on vinyl, offering listeners a warm, immersive auditory experience. The original LP pressing is noted for its detailed mastering, making it a favorite among audiophiles and collectors. For music lovers, *White Water, White Bloom* on vinyl not only highlights Sea Wolf’s rich acoustic textures and dynamic range but also preserves the album’s emotional resonance, inviting repeated listens to uncover new layers within its thoughtful compositions.
