‘Sophtware Slump’: Grandaddy's indie rock classic, created in isolation, gets rerecorded in quarantine

“And then when the quarantine thing happened, and having access to the studios was no longer a thing, I was kind of scrambling, like ‘Oh God, what am I gonna do?’ Luckily I have a piano here in my living room, which is my beloved, favorite piano … The sound of it defies the size of it, and it just looks nice; it’s beautiful. And it’s very simple.”— a rerecording that strips thesongs of their buzzing ambiance and electronic flourishes and distills the tracks to their lyrics and melody.

“I accidentally predicted Google Earth,” Lytle says of similarities between the satellite imagery program and the prescienttrack “Miner at the Dial-a-View,” a somber tale about a laborer digging for ore on a distant world. “I had to keep reminding myself: I’m not trying to win over a fanbase of 15-year-olds. It’s probably just a bunch of old Grandaddy nerds.”, Lytle’s Neil Young-like tenor — always an anomaly exiting his rough-hewn exterior — hasn’t diminished, with the singer only needing to drop the key on one track.Foot of the Mountain
