This dynamic progression through the artist’s back catalog is great for new fans and day ones. Spanning over 9 full-length albums and 2 EP’s, Anthology is a collective representation of growth through discomfort and an exercise in the banality of genre. This is the definitive collection of P.H.F. so far, with no sign of slowing down there will be plenty more to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e12\" Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-1st pressing on translucent red 140-gram vinyl\u003cbr\u003e-Double-sided foldable insert\u003cbr\u003e-Includes a bonus holographic Anthology sticker by P.H.F.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Danger Collective Records","offers":[{"title":"Translucent Red","offer_id":50867315114168,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/6384\/7352\/files\/ANTHOLOGY_front_alt__2.png?v=1740094330"},{"product_id":"p-h-f-new-metal-12-vinyl","title":"P.H.F. - New Metal","description":"\u003cp\u003eLocke and company have turned a corner yet again on P.H.F.’s highly anticipated new LP, \u003cem\u003eNew Metal\u003c\/em\u003e. “I think this is the most complex and ‘mature’ album maybe,” Locke details. “It feels like a good combination of all the sounds or phases I have gone through musically, so it's a good summation of the music I like to make.” \u003cem\u003eNew Metal\u003c\/em\u003e, which bears a name Locke chose as an obvious nod to the early ‘00s genre which was hugely influential to him growing up, is a 16 track juggernaut—likely P.H.F.’s most ambitious feat to date. On album ten P.H.F. masters the loud-quiet-loud dynamic with an even balance of heavy and delicate instrumentation, beneath Locke’s tender delivery of some his most thoughtful lyrics yet. Locke sings with the wisdom and agony of a legacy songwriter, detailing his struggle with mental health and modern banality. For \u003cem\u003eNew Metal\u003c\/em\u003e, Locke’s gritty home recordings are souped up by engineer \u0026amp; co-producer Nick Noneman and live drummer Nich Santana. P.H.F. breathes new life into the rotting corpse of alternative guitar music, with Locke’s masterful incorporation of harmonic dissonance, infectious breakdowns, and atmospheric production. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e12\" Vinyl Record\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-100 Tranlucent Orange ( New Metal and Anthology Vinyl Bundle Exclusive)\u003cbr\u003e-100 Opaque Vinyl (Mailorder\/Bandcamp Exclusive)\u003cbr\u003e-300 Black Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e-Standard Digipak CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCassette\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-White Shell Cassettes with Red Ink Imprint\u003cbr\u003e-Limited to 100 copies\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Danger Collective Records","offers":[{"title":"12\" Vinyl (Opaque White)","offer_id":50883146678456,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12\" Vinyl (Translucent Orange)","offer_id":50883146711224,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12\" Vinyl (Black)","offer_id":50883146743992,"sku":null,"price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50883146776760,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cassette","offer_id":50883146809528,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/6384\/7352\/files\/PHF_New_Metal_Digital_Cover_Small_0077fb2f-e0a0-434c-95ad-3c60c237fe2b.jpg?v=1737753595"},{"product_id":"p-h-f-purest-hell-12-vinyl-1","title":"P.H.F. - Purest Hell","description":"\u003cp\u003eP.H.F. is the recording project of Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland, NZ) songwriter and producer Joe Locke. From its origins in Locke’s 2008 bedroom productions, P.H.F. has gone on to collaborate with artists like Clairo, Rew and ARTHUR, toured and recorded globally, and had music released on pioneering vaporwave label Crystal Magic, before settling at its current home, US artist-run label Danger Collective Records. More than a decade in, and with a prolific release schedule encompassing studio albums, remixes, acoustic sessions, and esoteric Soundcloud drops, Locke’s music is difficult to categorise in terms of genre. What does link the bratty punk of \u003cem\u003eMall-O-Caust\u003c\/em\u003e (2012), the intimate synth-pop of \u003cem\u003eSoft\u003c\/em\u003e (2015), and the heavy eclecticism of most recent release \u003cem\u003eNew Metal\u003c\/em\u003e (2020), is a palpable emotional directness. “With P.H.F. I want people that listen to it to feel like they’re being held,” says Locke, “or if you feel like shit, hopefully this makes you feel a little better.” By focusing on the pain, boredom, and joy of the everyday, Locke’s songwriting strikes a difficult balance between the universally familiar and the poignantly personal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eP.H.F’s highly anticipated 2022 LP \u003cem\u003ePurest Hell\u003c\/em\u003e stands as a love letter to Locke’s close friend and essential collaborator Reuben Samuel Winter (milk, Totems) who passed away in September 2020. Expanding on the genre-bending ambition of New Metal, Locke uses musical experimentation as a way to process grief, incorporating shredding guitar, careening breakbeat chops, and heavy electronics as a way of paying tribute to, and feeling closer to Winter. While tracks like \"Skincare\" and \"A Letter From Purest Hell\" draw power from a deep and impactful sense of loss, the album is more than just an elegy, but a celebration of life of a beloved friend and musical innovator. Locke rises to the occasion, and with the help of collaborators Fantasyluv, Rew, and fellow 909 Worldwide members 99jakes \u0026amp; Forcefeeded, crafts his strongest and most affecting suite of songs to date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e12\" Vinyl (Baby Pink)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-140 gram 12\" vinyl\u003cbr\u003e-Limited edition Baby Pink color vinyl\u003cbr\u003e-1st pressing limited to 1,000 copies\u003cbr\u003e-Includes 11X17 lyrics poster\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCassette\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-White cassette shell w\/ black ink imprint\u003cbr\u003e-Limited to 250\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Danger Collective Records","offers":[{"title":"12\" Vinyl (Baby Pink)","offer_id":50883157229752,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cassette","offer_id":50883157262520,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/6384\/7352\/files\/PURESTHELLDIGITAL.jpg?v=1737750428"}],"url":"https:\/\/dangercollective.myshopify.com\/collections\/p-h-f.oembed","provider":"Danger Collective Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
