NotesVinyl LP pressing. 2019 release. Petra was written, produced, and performed by acclaimed multi-instrumentalist/ songwriter Anthony LaMarca, also known for his role as guitarist in The War On Drugs. Like so many Midwestern musicians before him, LaMarca left his beloved hometown of Youngstown, OH for Brooklyn but returned in 2014 and began work as The Building, often joined by his brother Angelo (guitar) and wife Megan (cello) on a series of EPs and albums - including 2017's acclaimed Reconciliation - released via Peppermint Records. Petra - which shares it's 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 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 album opener "Transformed," made even more impactful through strikingly simple arrangements and raw, heartfelt performance.
