{"product_id":"sans-merit-trolley-polly-lp","title":"Sans Merit - Trolley Polly (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSans Merit arrives on Knekelhuis with his second album Trolley Polly. A radiant album from currently LA-based Australian musician Griffin James—one that leans into unguarded joy with a playful, disarming sincerity.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe album rocks right away into our world. Lifting off where the guitar pedals mash the gas and go. While at other moments the acoustic guitar passages carry a neofolk intimacy, like the low-voiced choir singer cast out of a pastoral world, left to wander in his own solitude. These moments are swept up by surging shoegaze episodes, slipping into hazy hypnagogic pop interludes and wiry post-punk turns, giving the record a restless, shifting pulse.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath it all lies a lyrical sensitivity that grounds the album’s movement. Sans Merit reflects on the big questions in a world that feels increasingly fragile, balancing vulnerability with a self-aware, gently naïve humor, while staying attuned to the emotional undercurrents of everyday life. It’s this perspective that makes Trolley Polly feel so human—alive in its contradictions, and quietly comforting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knekelhuis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57268602536280,"sku":null,"price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0259\/9403\/5259\/files\/a027471016810.jpg?v=1778507206","url":"https:\/\/3345.nl\/nl\/products\/sans-merit-trolley-polly-lp","provider":"3345 Record Store The Hague","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
