Product Description:
PETRA – which shares its name with the LaMarcas' beloved German Shepherd – is a bare-boned, often brutally blunt, new work from a gifted musician-songwriter forced by fate to confront life's hardest truths and consequences. LaMarca had just begun recording at Youngstown's Peppermint Productions – a vintage studio facility best known for producing everything from polka superstar Frank Yankovic to the Judge Judy theme song – when a spell of intense back pain led to his being diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma. Originally, LaMarca was diagnosed in the middle of making Reconciliation. He immediately started treatment, which brought the disease into complete remission. His disease relapsed last year while in the middle of making PETRA." The experience inspired a second meaning to the album's title, the acronym P-E-T-R-A, or “Peace's Eternal Truth Renews All.” Moreover, LaMarca's physical struggle has resulted in the most powerful work of The Building's still-growing canon, a vivid series of deeply personal songs such as “Purifer” and the LP-opening “Transformed,” made even more impactful through strikingly simple arrangements and raw, heartfelt performance.
