The first studio album from Car Seat Headrest in five years, 'The Scholars.' From Shakespeare to Mozart to classical opera, Car Seat Headrest's Will Toledo pulled from the classics when devising the lyrics and story arc of 'The Scholars,' while the music draws, carefully, from classic rock story song cycles such as The Who's 'Tommy' and David Bowie's 'Ziggy Stardust.' "One thing that can be a struggle with rock operas is that the individual songs kind of get sacrificed for the flow of the plot," Toledo notes. "I didn't want to sacrifice that to make a very fluid narrative. And so this is sort of a middle ground where each song can be a character and it's like each one is coming out on center stage and they have their song and dance." While Car Seat Headrest started as Toledo's solo project, the four-piece is now fully a band. "What we've been doing more of in recent years is just taking the pulses of each other." says Toledo. "It didn't really feel to me like things got in sync in an inner feeling way until this record, with that internal communal energy. And it's become that band feeling for me in a much more realized way. That's been a big journey." It is a journey that listeners will want to embark on again and again as they absorb and discover the rich depths and clanging resonances of 'The Scholars.'

For Returns on new vinyl purchased in the store or online - we only accept returns for products we determine to be defective or severely damaged, and only if we are notified of the issue with 5 days of you receiving the record. Once you’ve made us aware of the issue we might ask for photo or video proof (if purchased online) and we will determine if the product is returnable. We will then work with you to arrange for return shipping and/or replacement of your item.
Vinyl is an inherently a flawed medium so a slight wave in the record that does not affect play, or some surface noise is just part of this fun fun world we all love. Also, if you have a $40 record player and the record is skipping please know there’s a 99% chance the problem is the record player not the brand new record. “the suitcase” style all in one players are a fantastic way to find out if you love the idea of records as much as we do, but they can’t handle the weight of many modern records and they tend to skip on newer pressings. Minor corner dings/plastic rip are also part of this world and do not quality for a return/replacement. If the damage is severe please contact us and we can work with you.
If your return is brand new unopened product in the same condition as purchased it can be returned for store credit. If you purchased online you can pay to have it shipped back we can give you store credit.
