Ultimate Painting certainly won’t ever be everyone’s masterpiece of a band and Green Lanes ain’t no Mona Lisa either. It’s a pastel water coloured effort that’s like The Byrds with less shimmering jangle, The Beatles with less melodious catchiness, The Velvet Underground with less fuzz and Lou Reed drawl: but it works.

Ultimate Painting have the kind of chilled-out vibe you wish you could bottle up and save for later, but do yourself a favor and stream it now, here exclusively on Noisey. Ultimate Painting Tour Dates: 9/10/15 Empty Bottle - Chicago, IL. 9/12/15 Bishop - Bloomington, IN. 9/13/15 PJ’s Lager House - Detroit, MI. 9/15/15 Adelaide Hall - Toronto, ON. 9/18/15 Rough Trade NYC - Brooklyn, NY. 9/19/15 Middle East Upstairs - Cambridge, MA.

Produced by James Hoare. Do you have a feeling of pressure Heard to measure all around Do you lie awake in the darkness as it passes Looking down to the ground. Green Lanes Ultimate Painting.

After releasing an excellent self-titled album in 2014, the duo of James Hoare (of Veronica Falls) and Jack Cooper (of Mazes) could have gone their separate ways, thus depriving fans of smart, sneakily good guitar pop a follow-up. Fortunately, their low-key collaboration continues with 2015's Green Lanes, and it's the equal of their debut, maybe even just a touch better.

Ultimate Painting’s second album is still in thrall to the Velvet Underground, and certainly has a nice line in wistful meanderings. It’s hard to knock an album that attributes its qualities to some of music’s most refined songwriters. Kodiak is the first exhibit in this museum-like collection of rock subgenres, the second release from Jack Cooper of Mazes and James Hoare of Veronica Falls. It opens with a dawdling riff ripped from Stephen Malkmus, before the nervous shuffle of (I’ve Got The) Sanctioned Blues recalls Graham Coxon at his most melodic and neurotic.

Talk about Ultimate Painting - Green Lanes

Maroon marbled here, no patch. And since when is there a 10 word limit? (Put that last part in there to fulfill said limit)

I was re-reading my review of Ultimate Painting’s first release, and while no one wants an artist to be a one trick pony, I will say that the difference between the two albums is like night and day ... perhaps too much so.My biggest concern is not with the record, but with other reviewers and music rags who don’t seem to want to offend anyone, and say things such as, “The Groups follow-up, Green Lanes, sounds even more casual” ... when the subtext reads that the album is less richly layered and complex. Others avoid saying anything by saying, “It’s mellower and more subdued, with the songs ticking along at medium tempo or slower” ... when again, the subtext would be that the songs are less interesting, less inspired, and spartan without the deep contemplation.Green Lanes is not a bad album, it’s just miles from what I expected, with the distinction of who wrote which songs astoundingly evident, indicating that within a mere two releases the dynamics of this duo are at a point where they seem not to be working collectively, or even reshaping each others material so that it sounds like a collective effort. Instead, Green Lanes comes off not dysfunctionally, but certainly as individual efforts cobbled together. Gone is the psychedelic lo-fi fuzzed out intonation of their debut, gone is the seeming effortlessness, replaced with affected guitars and passages of verse that come off as free-style meaningless meanderings. The opening two tracks “Kodiak” and “Sweet Chris” have been injected with an uncomfortable cutting series of guitar notes that poke at the listener for no good reason, getting the album off to a rather rough start for this listener. It’s not until the most sensational song on the album “(I’ve Got The) Sanctioned Blues,” a number that defies ownership, and was exactly what I was hoping for with this release, that the band steps into the light. While good, their other efforts come off rather run of the mill, leaving the tracks “Two From The Vault,” “Out Cold” and “The Ocean (Reprise)” to dance in your head, while the others float off into the ether.Green Lanes is less about an atmosphere of drugs and sex, and more about two people having forgotten what they once mustered, where they once took us, and delivering cutting room samples, and not a finished product that sounds polished and rewarding.Review by Jenell Kesler

Mine is green,blue marbled, I'm guessing it's one of their random mixed colour versions. Hope this helps.
DireRaven
Mine is a marbled maroon red?
Delaath
Mine is a marbled blue and maroon too. Got the last copy in my local shop, with a kind word from the guy behind the counter. Saw them supporting Father John Misty and they won me over.
