A GIANT DOG - BITE
Bite is a concept
album, concerning characters who find themselves moving in and out of a
virtual reality called Avalonia. A Giant Dog's first album of original
songs since 2017's Toy, Bite finds the band-Sabrina Ellis, Andrew
Cashen, Danny Blanchard, Graham Low, and Andy Bauer-at their peak as
musicians, challenging themselves with more complex arrangements and
subject matter that forced them out of their heads and into those of
the characters who occupy this supposed paradise. Themes of addiction,
gender fluidity, living ethically in a capitalist society, physical
autonomy, avarice, grief, and consent bubble beneath the promised
happiness of Avalonia. The songs on Bite are full of bombast, at turns
calling to mind the spacefaring operatic rock of Electric Light
Orchestra and the high drama of an Ennio Morricone film score.

AIR MIAMI - ME. ME. ME.
90s 4AD band Air
Miamis debut album gets a long overdue repress on July 28th 2023. Blue
& orange vinyl!
Born from the ashes of celebrated D.C. band Unrest, Air Miami are the
duo of Bridget Cross and Mark Robinson. A transatlantic joint
production between record labels 4AD and Marks own Teenbeat, their
debut album me. me. me. has grown something of a cult status since its
release back in 1995. Produced by Guy Fixsen (The Breeders, My Bloody
Valentine, Stereolab), it was recorded at the famed Criteria Studios in
Miami, FL, and mixed in London with Lush recording their final album,
Lovelife, in the studio next door.
Remastered from their original analogue tapes by Pete Weiss, this new
deluxe edition pulls together all the album session tracks for the
first time, spreading 16 tracks (3 new to the album) over two LPs.
Pressed on Floridian-inspired aqua and orange vinyl and cut at 45rpm,
the package is completed with a new gatefold sleeve design with Hideaki
Kodamas stunning Girl B 1988 photo still adorning the cover.
A limited pressing, this is likely to sell out quickly.

01. PLEAASE PLEASE SOMEONE KILL ME SOON
02. I I I I'VE GOT IT
03. SEABIRD FLY AWAY, TO THE SEA

ALLAH-LAS - ZUMA 85
For the last 15
years, Allah-Las have alchemically melded surf rock washes with folk
rock jangle and rock, building up their lauded music podcast,
Reverberation Radio, and record label, Calico Discos, in the process.
But a lot has changed since Matthew Correia (drums/vocals), Spencer
Dunham (bass, guitar, vocals), Miles Michaud (guitar, organ, vocals),
and Pedrum Siadatian (guitar, synth, vocals) first bonded over psych
rock vinyl in the back room at Amoeba Records in the late aughts. Zuma
85 signals the start of a new era for Allah-Las, and finds the band
reinventing itself in defiance of the algorithmic categorization and
robotic sterility. Recorded in the midst of the shift from the Old
World to whatever branch of reality were on now, its a return, too: The
album will be released October 13th on their own label, Calico Discos,
in partnership with Innovative Leisure, which released early defining
statements like Allah-Las (2012) and Worship The Sun (2014).

AND YOU WILL KNOW US BY T - TAO OF THE DEAD
Tao of the Dead was
the seventh studio album by Texas rock band ...And You Will Know Us by
the Trail of Dead, originally released in 2011.
...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead have consistently
specialized in sound-tracking the breaking of the seventh seal. For
those of you less schooled in scripture, that means they make music fit
for the end of the world, whether it is an interior existence troubled
by nightmares and doubt, or an exterior reality continually plagued by
environmental disaster, neocolonialism and unending Wars on Whatever.

album; the standard fluctuates with the weather, your temperament,
whatever chemicals may or may not waft through your mind. But from
start to finish, first listen to last, Isnt It Now? absolutely lands as
a classic, its mix of playfulness and earnestness, glittery pop and
tessellated textures seeming to synthesize and update all that has ever
made and still makes this band so compelling. It is experienced and

the frontier of a beginners mind, together. Recorded, mixed and

ANOHNI & THE JOHNSONS - MY BACK WAS A BRIDGE FOR YOU TO CROSS
My Back Was A Bridge
For You To Cross, ANOHNI's 6th studio album, shape shifts through its
subject matter: the loss of loved ones, inequality, alienation,
privilege, denial, ecocide and the tidal power of Earth, isolation,
Future Feminism, and the intention that we might yet transform our ways
of thinking, our religious ideas, our societal structures, and our
relationships with the rest of nature. On her first full album since
2016's HOPELESSNESS, she explains the creative process was painstaking,
yet also inspired, joyful, and intimate, a renewal and a renaming of
her response to the world as she sees it. "A couple of these songs are
almost a response to the call of [Marvin Gaye's] What's Going On, from
2023. They are a kind of an echo from the future to that album from 50
years ago."ANOHNI places her heart on the line and in a groove in the
opening track "It Must Change," describing systems in collapse with a
note of compassion for humanity: "The truth is I always thought you
were beautiful in your own way / That's why this is so sad. "Scapegoat"
waivers between tenderness and instrumental brutality. The primordial,
Kali-esque curse "Rest" positions the record at moments in conversation
with experimental rock of the 1970s. Her voice is sensual and smoothed,
selectively reaching to the edges of what it can contain. "I don't want
you to be dead, I can't accept it," she cries out at the climax of
"Can't." "How sweet the vista, the portal view / On my way to black and
blue," she grieves on "Sliver of Ice," a remembering of some of the
last words Lou Reed shared with her. A record its creator acknowledges
is inextricably both personal and political, and one that is full of
heartfelt music that also questions its own right to be heard, My Back
Was A Bridge For You To Cross demonstrates musics unique capacity to
bring harmony to competing, sometimes contradictory, elements. She
shares, "For me, there's no heavenly respite; creation is a spectral
and feminine continuum, and our souls are an inalienable part of
nature."

over the span of 4 years, it was produced by Joe Barresi and Avenged
Sevenfold in Los Angeles and mixed by Andy Wallace in the Poconos, PA.
Inspired by Albert Camus'The Stranger, the album is a journey through
an existential crisis; a very personal exploration into the meaning,

B-52'S - TIME CAPSULE: SONGS FOR A FUTURE GENERATION
Released in 1998,
Time Capsule: Songs for a Future Generation is the essential B-52's
greatest-hits collection. A chronologically assembled highlight reel of
the group's first two decades, it contains all of their singles and a
number of album favorites, along with two exclusive then-newly written
tracks. When they first arrived on the scene in 1979, their kitschy
thrift-store image and weirdly spartan sound immediately set them apart
from others in the new wave scene to which they were loosely attached.
Three guys, two girls, arcane hairdos, no bassist, and a sound that was
equal parts spy music and good-time dance party, the B-52's were always
fascinatingly loveable outsiders and remained so throughout their years
of success. Beginning with "Planet Claire," "52 Girls," and the
immortal "Rock Lobster," Time Capsule winds its way through their early
and mid-'80s hits like "Quiche Lorraine" and the charming "Song for a
Future Generation." As they continued to grow and evolve, their sound
expanded, becoming both more nostalgic and more light-hearted, leading
into their commercial peak in the early '90s with the excellent
"Channel Z," "Roam," and of course "Love Shack." A highlight of this
collection is the previously unreleased original mix of "Summer of
Love," which feels far more natural than the version which ended up
being released on 1986's Bouncing Off the Satellites. The two newly
recorded cuts, "Debbie" and "Hallucinating Pluto," are decent enough
and will interest collectors, though they can hardly be considered
among the band's best material. Still, tacked as they are to the end,
they serve as worthy bookends to this excellent 18-track set, which
reveals the full career arc of one of rock's most fun and most
distinctive acts.

BANHART, DEVENDRA - FLYING WIG
"Flying Wig" is an
album of recurrent dualities; a can of paradoxes, a box of worms. The
pine-surrounded cabin studio where Banhart was "constantly listening to
The Grateful Dead" somehow birthed something slick, city pop-adjacent
and eno-esque. Its the actualisation of a "precious friendship" with
producer Cate Le Bon - a coming together prophesied by the mirror-image
titles of their early solo albums (Banharts "Oh Me Oh My" / Le Bons "Me
Oh My"), a tenderness built on crude haircuts ("we finally met, soon
after she was cutting my hair with a fork and that was that") and
home-made tattoos.

BARNETT, COURTNEY - END OF THE DAY
Anonymous Club is
Danny Cohen's candid documentary about the personal travails and
hard-fought triumphs of Courtney Barnett, as she rose through the ranks
of indie rock during the last decade. A cautiously redemptive portrait,
any happy ending reflects the possibilities of fulfillment and
stability, not the things themselves. In May 2021, months before the
film's release, Courtney Barnett and collaborator Stella Mozgawa
rendezvoused with Cohen in Melbourne to shape a score that fit that
premise-nothing too obvious or instructive, to tell the audience how
they should feel. Barnett found she liked listening to what the duo had
made, existing within it's reflective gaze. She began sorting through
those little instrumentals like amoebic puzzle pieces, figuring out how
they fit into a full picture. The result is a seamless series of 17
instrumental improvisations called End of the Day: Music from the Film
'Anonymous Club', soundtrack reimagined as impressionistic sound-art
collage. Like Barnett's rock songs, they wordlessly ask hard questions
of our softest parts, wondering what it is we really find there.

BEACH FOSSILS - BUNNY (BLUE VINYL)
Brooklyn bedroom-pop
trailblazers Beach Fossils' new album 'Bunny,' is a triumphant return
for one of the 2010s most influential NYC bands. 'Bunny' is a precise
blend of the luscious dream-pop atmospheres they notoriously honed on
their earliest projects, the post-punk vigor expressed on 'Clash the
Truth,' and the warm, sophisticated songwriting of 'Somersault.'
Composer Dustin Payseur peppers the album equally with descriptions of
the joy of fatherhood and the existential pleasure of smoking
cigarettes out of a car window with friends-'Bunny' features Beach
Fossils' most personal lyrics to-date.
This is a collection of new favorite tracks for fans of every era of
Beach Fossils. Releasing on Payseur and his partner Katie Garcia's own
label, Bayonet Records, 'Bunny' will prove to be the culmination of a
decade's worth of growth and experience.

BJORK - SELMA SONGS
Selmasongs features
music from Lars von Trier's 2000 motion picture Dancer In The Dark. The
album features classical arrangements, as well as melodies and beats
composed of sounds from mundane objects, such as factory machines and
trains. Since the soundtrack was released before the film, some of the
song lyrics on the album are substantially different from the songs
heard in the film.

BJORK - TELEGRAM
A collection of
remixes of several tracks from Bjork's album Post, 1996's Telegram
served as the Icelandic iconoclast's second overall remix album.
"Telegram is really Post as well but all the elements of the songs are
just exaggerated," Bjork explained. "It's like the core of Post. That's
why it's funny to call it a remix album, it's like the opposite."

BJORK - VULNICURA
Vulnicura is the
eighth studio album by Icelandic artist Bjork, co-produced with Arca
and The Haxan Cloak. Bjork said the album expresses her feelings before
and after her breakup with American contemporary artist Matthew Barney
and the healing process. Vulnicura was originally scheduled for release
in March 2015. Following an internet leak, it was released digitally
two months early. No singles were released to promote the album but a
series of innovative music videos were created, culminating in the
360-degree virtual reality exhibit Bjork Digital. Vulnicura received
widespread acclaim from critics, with many considering it one of her
most honest and personal albums as well as her best output in a decade.

BLONDE REDHEAD - SIT DOWN FOR DINNER
Blonde Redhead
return with Sit Down for Dinner, their first album in nine years and
debut for section1. Its title a nod to the often-sacred communal ritual
of sharing a meal with those you love, this immersive, meticulously
crafted album appropriately serves an expression of persistent
togetherness - a testament to the unique internal logic Blonde Redhead
have refined over their three-decade existence.
Formed in the 1993 New York indie underground, Blonde Redhead quickly
found a place on Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelleys label, Smells Like,
before releasing beloved records on Touch & Go and 4AD that traced
an arc from angular indie-rock to cosmopolitan art pop. The trio might
have been a quintessential 90s band, if not for the fact that they
continuously kept going, growing, never confined to any era but the
present.
Ultimately, Sit Down for Dinner lands as perhaps the strongest record
in a 30-year catalog thats already as illustrious as it is varied.
Understated yet visceral melodies charge each song, creating a foil to
lyrics about the inescapable struggles of adulthood: communication
breakdown in enduring relationships, wondering which way to turn,
holding onto your dreams.

BODY OF LIGHT - BITTER REFLECTION (LIGHT BLUE VINYL)
The latest by
Arizona desert brotherhood Alex and Andrew Jarson aka Body Of Light
further hones their smoldering strain of tempestuous synth-pop into a
transformative suite of anthems, reveries, and reckonings: Bitter
Reflection. Written in the wake of 2019s neo-EBM classic, Time To Kill,
they sifted inspiration from hidden moments within their own arcana -
childhood tapes, home movies, abandoned demos - asking themselves the
question: "How can we make this grow?" Sampled snippets of voice,
noise, synth, and field recordings flicker in the periphery of these 11
tracks, murmuring like nostalgias half-forgotten, or displaced
memories. Its music pulled between twin flames of truth and desire,
romanticization and reality, catharsis and control, born of a bond
sealed by years, dreams, and blood. Working with Telefon Tel Aviv
co-founder Josh Eustis in Los Angeles, the brothers incorporated an
expanded array of live instrumentation - piano, bass, saxophone,
acoustic guitar - in addition to vintage Akai samplers, Moogs, and
archaic hardware, giving the album an eclectic, unpredictable palette.
Opener "Get It Right" showcases their impressive refinement: sleekly
cold drum machinery builds to a swooning chorus of synths and piano,
then suddenly slips into a dream sequence bridge of strummed guitar and
echo-shrouded vocals, before surging back to the main melody.
Throughout, the songs shift gears and moods in evocative ways, as if
bending to fleeting thoughts or lengthening shadows. Simmering synth
lament "Strike The Match" captures the Jarsons unique technique of
co-crafted lyrics, accruing meaning as the world turns; though written
long before, the track ended up being recorded the day Russia invaded
Ukraine ("I fall asleep to the candlelight / things will be different
but not tonight / it wouldnt be like you to strike the match / over and
over, I cant understand"). A trio of intriguing instrumentals deepen
the albums scope, echoing the duos early experimental era as part of
the influential Ascetic House collective. "Fortia," "Hyena," and
"Deepcolorlights" drift in a prismatic gauze of whispered synths and
oblique minutia, in the spirit of Boards of Canada at their most hushed
and haunted. Elsewhere the record spins through a gallery of the bands
ongoing fascinations: Depeche Mode-esque declarations of dread and
excess ("This Conversation"), brooding dance floor epiphanies ("Out Of
Season"), smooth Thomas Dolby city skyline melancholias ("Never Ever"),
lovesick looking glass ballads laced with Art Of Noise orchestral stabs
("On This Day"). A new age demands new waves, and Body Of Light belongs
at the forefront of a resurgent generation fusing modern methods with
the sounds of futures past. Singer Alex Jarson sees their muse clearly,
at the axis of anguished transition, temporal collapse, and, just
possibly, the brink of hope: "Time is dysphoric. The dream breaks down.
Everyones beginning to panic, but in the end something will come from
it."

BODY TYPE - EXPIRED CANDY
Following recent
Australian tours with the Pixies and Fontaines DC, indie-pop gems BODY
TYPE have just announced their hotly anticipated second album Expired
Candy will be out June 2nd via Poison City. After winning over a swathe
of new fans on their debut album Everything Is Dangerous But Nothings
Surprising, Body Type assert there's no time like the present,
revealing the 2023 album is filled with urgency, hope, love, and
danger, dancing with delicious uncertainty. In pursuit of joy we
dreamed up songs about mothers, sisters, dogs, nans; family tantrums,
forward motion, falling in love, platonic or romantic, with someone or
self. Heart breaks, tooth will shatter, but she'll be there when it
really matters. Flirty, feral and defiant, just how we like it. From
our wild heart to yours, Body Type. FFO: Breeders, Wet Leg,

BOMBINO - SAHEL (BLUE VINYL)
Limited transparent
blue colored vinyl LP pressing. Guitar luminary + Tuareg folk hero
Omara "Bombino" Moctar knows the nomadic life well. Being constantly on
the road for his music while also perpetually on the move throughout
the Sahel region of Africa is the norm. So when the pandemic brought
the world to a screeching halt, Bombino found himself in an unfamiliar
space: being in one place. What resulted was Sahel, the follow-up to
2018's Deran, a record that turned Bombino into the first-ever
GRAMMY-nominated artist from Niger. This new collection of songs, named
after the African region spanning East-West from the Atlantic Ocean to
the Red Sea, is Bombino's most personal, powerful, and
politically-minded work to date. It's also his most sonically diverse,
a quality he set out to achieve from the start, and one that is meant
to directly mirror the complex tapestry of cultures and people that
make up the Sahel region itself. To bring the songs to life, Bombino
worked with Welsh producer/ mixer David Wrench (David Byrne, Frank
Ocean, Caribou, Goldfrapp, Erasure, The xx, Sampha), decamping with his
bandmates to a studio in Casablanca for ten days to lay down the album.
The songs that comprise Sahel range in theme from the plight of the
Tuareg, to the ache of lost love, to the follies of youth.

BREEDERS - LAST SPLASH (30TH ANN. ED.) (DLP + 12")
A defining album of
the 90s, Last Splash by The Breeders turns thirty this year. To
celebrate, the band have returned to the original tapes to give it its
first-ever remaster, and by doing so have also unearthed two lost
tracks that will delight fans. Recorded by the classic Breeders line-up
of Kim Deal, Kelley Deal, Josephine Wiggs and Jim Macpherson and
featuring singles Cannonball and Divine Hammer, Last Splash was "an
alt-rock classic" (Pitchforks Top 100 Records of 1990s) on release; a
fast seller too, quickly attaining Platinum status in the US.
Despite having had the boxset treatment on its 20th birthday, the album
was still left to be remastered so 10 years on, the original 1/2" tapes
were taken out of the archives and have been lovingly worked on by Kim
Deal, Benjamin Mumphrey and Miles Showell (Abbey Road).
Never sounding so good, the album for its 30th anniversary, its getting
the ultimate vinyl pressing. Entitled Last Splash (the 30th Anniversary
Original Analog Edition), this new version has been cut at half speed
at Abbey Road by Miles Showell, now spanning two LPs and running at
45rpm. A Japanese J-CD edition will also be available.
This edition contains an exclusive, one-sided etched 12" which features
two previously unreleased tracks - Go Man Go and Divine Mascis (Go Man
Go is a track that Kim co-wrote with Black Francis while Divine Mascis
is a different version of Divine Hammer with Dinosaur Jr.s J Mascis on
lead vocals). Both tracks originate from the original sessions and were
left forgotten until the sessions were exhumed to create this new
master.
The attention to detail continues to the albums art, which equally
celebrates Vaughan Olivers iconic sleeve. With Vaughan sadly no longer
with us, his long-time design partner Chris Bigg has gloriously
reimagined the albums sleeve for this new version.

contains, in Noise Floor, early Bright Eyes songs so raw Oberst never
even released them back in the day, as well as, in Cassadaga and The
People's Key, the band's most polished and sophisticated albums. When
Bright Eyes toured Cassadega they performed an epic 7 sold-out nights
at NYC's Town Hall. What's more grown-up rock-star than that? And yet
..."Thematically those early songs are not that different than the
songs I make now," Oberst says, shaking his head. "There's something
affirming and disheartening about it. It's like, have I really changed
or grown? But maybe it's just that I knew what I wanted to write about

BRIGHT EYES - THE PEOPLE'S KEY (ORANGE VINYL)
One of the things
that struck Oberst as he and the band went through twenty-plus years of
music is that he may in fact have been writing the same song this whole
time. Not sonically, of course, but conceptually. This last wave
contains, in Noise Floor, early Bright Eyes songs so raw Oberst never
even released them back in the day, as well as, in Cassadaga and The
People's Key, the band's most polished and sophisticated albums. When
Bright Eyes toured Cassadega they performed an epic 7 sold-out nights
at NYC's Town Hall. What's more grown-up rock-star than that? And yet
..."Thematically those early songs are not that different than the
songs I make now," Oberst says, shaking his head. "There's something
affirming and disheartening about it. It's like, have I really changed
or grown? But maybe it's just that I knew what I wanted to write about
from the beginning."

BRITISH SEA POWER - MAN OF ARAN
In 2009 the band,
now known as Sea Power, were commissioned by the Edinburgh Film
Festival to create their own soundtrack for the 1934 quasi-documentary,
which they premiered by playing along live during a screening at the
event. A studio version of the album followed in May the same year,
while more screening/performances took place at the BFI in London and
at cinemas in Brighton and Sheffield, while events were also staged on
a series of islands, including Jersey, the Hebrides and a Norwegian
islet in the Arctic Circle. Earning the group widespread acclaim upon
its release, both for the musics simpatico relationship with the
original film and as a stand-alone work in its own right. Declared by
The Quietus on release as a "perfect symbiosis that should rightly be
regarded as something of an understated classic," Irelands Hot Press
called it "Stunning... breath-taking" while NME encouraged listeners to
"let it all gloriously wash over you." Fans will finally be able to
experience that artistic and emotional depth on vinyl with this
reissue.

Blending equal amounts of melodic punk rock and power pop, and
featuring one very special guest on 9 of the album's 10 songs, Young,

BUSH TETRAS - THEY LIVE IN MY HEAD
Bush Tetras have
made punk music at the fringes for over four decades. Flashes of
reggae, bursts of noise, guitars that rattle, shake and snake, born out
of a gutter behind CBGBs. Over the years they have respawned time and
time again, contorting their sound, tweaking the vision, remaining
singular and indispensable. In the late 2010s the group-Pat Place,
Cynthia Sley, and Dee Pop-reformed again, releasing an EP, Take the
Fall, in 2018. It was their first offering of new music in over a
decade. A few years later in, 2021, they released a career spanning box
set called Rhythm and Paranoia. The New York Times called the box set
an artifact that "proves for decades [that Bush Tetras] continued to
evolve in surprising yet intuitive directions." Around the same time,
the band began working on a full length record, writing sessions during
the pandemic over Zoom. Right before the release of the box set,
beloved drummer Dee Pop passed away. Determined to complete the record
to honor his memory, the Tetras went into the studio to finish what
they'd started, once the timing was right. They brought in a new
drummer, Sonic Youth's Steve Shelley, who also served as producer.
Enter They Live in My Head. The band's 3rd official LP (a misleading
fact when viewed alongside a catalog as expansive as it is
influential), They Live in My Head is a collection of songs that
sometimes reflect on the past and sometimes reckon with our current
reality. From "Ghosts of People, " on which Pat Place's legendary
guitar meanders through closed doors and portals, to the scorching
"2020 Vision, " a matter-of-fact call to arms to get on the streets and
get something done, the album addresses new and old, in both abstract
and specific terms. But whether they're looking forward or backward,
Bush Tetras have always been a political band, a band that calls out
all kinds of bullshit. And, in that sense, They Live in My Head is
absolutely no exception.

BYRNE, DAVID & FATBOY SLIM - HERE LIES LOVE
David Byrne &
Fatboy Slim's acclaimed 2010 album Here Lies Love receives it's
first-ever vinyl release to coincide with a new production opening on
Broadway this summer. Here Lies Love is a double-disc song cycle -
improbably poignant, decidedly surreal, surprisingly thought provoking
- about the rise and fall of the Philippines' notorious Imelda Marcos.
It was conceived by David Byrne; composed by Byrne and DJ/recording
artist Fatboy Slim, AKA Norman Cook; and performed by a dream cast
drawn from the worlds of indie rock, alt country, R&B and pop.
Byrne's taste in collaborators is as imaginative as it is impeccable,
including Cyndi Lauper (who recounts, to lighthearted disco beats,
Imelda's courtship with Ferdinand Marcos), Steve Earle (as the
power-hungry Ferdinand), Dap-Kings vocalist Sharon Jones (recalling
Imelda's introduction into New York society) and Natalie Merchant (as
spurned Imelda confidante Estrella, anticipating the onset of martial
law). Along with vocals turns from such stars as Tori Amosand the
B-52's Kate Pierson, Byrne works with rising indie rockers St. Vincent
and My Brightest Diamond; New York chanteuses Nellie McKayand, Martha
Wainwright; and dance-music divas RA3isA-n Murphy and Santigold. Byrne
himself appears as the voice of imperialistic America on 'American
Troglodyte', a send-up that wouldn't have seemed out of places in
Talking Heads' True Stories.

CABLE TIES - ALL HER PLANS
All Her Plans, the
third album from Melbourne, Australias Cable Ties, finds the trio of
Jenny McKechnie, Shauna Boyle, and Nick Brown at their punchiest and
most assured. The ferocious, kraut-influenced blend of post-punk and
garage rock of Merge debut Far Enough remains, but McKechnies lyrics
invite the
listener closer than ever before.
The urgency and fury that have marked Cable Ties output thus far is
more nuanced on All Her Plans. The unfettered rage of their calls to
action endures - tackling subjects like broken mental healthcare
systems and the burden of familial care that is largely placed on women
- while holding space for gratitude,
love, and acceptance.
All Her Plans is a breakthrough moment for Cable Ties. It is the sound
of a group that is exhilarated to be making music together again, both
a celebration of their resilience and a massive step forward into a
future they can finally claim
as their own.

CALE, JOHN - WORDS FOR THE DYING (CLEAR VINYL)
"Words For The Dying
has at its heart The Falklands Suite, Cales baroque if heartfelt
response to the Anglo-Argentinian War, which finds him setting the
poems of his beloved Dylan Thomas to music. When building songs around
anothers words, the results often sound forced, but Cale does a
magnificent job of compressing Thomass lyricism into neat melodic
phrases, themselves just components of a vast harmonic mega-structure
scored for the USSRs Orchestra of Symphonic & Popular Music of
Gostelradio. A project that could easily have collapsed under the
weight of its own ambition is instead a late masterpiece, thanks to
Cales deep-seated compositional genius, and unobtrusive but resonant
production from Brian Eno." Kiran Sande

Black 180g LP. Wild
Creatures is a career retrospective album containing twenty-three of

With a career spanning over twenty years, she has famously collaborated
withThe New Pornographers and Case/Lang/Veirs in addition to releasing
many critically acclaimed solo albums, including 'Fox Confessor Brings
The Flood', 'Middle Cyclone' and most recently 2018's 'Hell-On'.
Gathering power year after year, Neko sings with the fierce abandon of
a newborn infant crying in a basket in the woods. Since escaping the
labels of country and Americana, the gorgeous train-whistle vocals of
her early career sit submerged in her later style, where their ghost
can appear any minute. When her voice jumps an octave, it's almost
visible, like sparks at night. "I never knew where I wanted to go or
what I wanted to do with my voice," she says, "but I just wanted to do
it so bad."k The Vinyl configurations include: 2 LPs with printed inner

CHADWICK, SARAH MARY - MESSAGES TO GOD (PINK VINYL)
New Zealand born,
Melbourne-based Sarah Mary Chadwick has announced her eighth studio
record Messages to God due out September 15 on Kill Rock Stars and
executive produced by award winning producer, Tony Epsie (oracle to The
Avalanches). Composed of broad, brightly coloured spiritual strokes, it
consists of dramatic retellings of having your heart broken, existing,
movement and growth while always meditating on the past. While her
three most recent records were drenched in grief, the new collection
signals a change; whether profound or momentary, time will tell.
Messages to God is a beautifully realized record. Its not happy but it
is funny and optimistic. It is melodramatic, self-serving and generous.
Sometimes, from way back in the shitty seats of the theater, youre at
your closest to god. Thats what this record is like, finding beauty in
everyday occurrences. Because its there. You just gotta look really
hard sometimes. And as Chadwick provides, "Because every days just one
more day / trying to write messages to god.

CHAI - CHAI (LOSER EDITION)
Pink vinyl.
The Japanese band CHAI cast a spell on the world in 2017, when they
released their debut album, PINK, a collection of songs that introduced
us to their singular brand of playful pop. The jubilant and
enthusiastically feminist follow-up, PUNK, raked in accolades from the
music press and fellow artists alike. That led to WINK, which CHAI made
via remote Zoom sessions, a limitation that became a strength since it
allowed MANA (lead vocals and keys), KANA (guitar), YUNA (drums), and
YUUKI (bassist-lyricist) to collaborate with artists abroad. On WINK,
CHAI looked beyond their immediate surroundings, and the confines of
home, to create a work that found catharsis in their international
community. On September 22nd, 2023, CHAI will release their dazzling
self-titled fourth album worldwide from Sub Pop, and in Japan &
Asia through Sony Music.
Unlike WINK, this self-titled collection of songs finds CHAI returning
to their roots, drawing inspiration from their Japanese cultural
heritage and the music that raised them.

effortlessly cool. Ten years later, "Black Sail" isnt just a fan
favorite-its practically a statement of purpose for the great albums
that followed. But before those records, there was No Regerts: the
sound of four friends evolving from a party band into a "real" one
(whatever that means) in real-time. Theyre above it all on "Seattle
Party," "Happiness," and "Evil," but remain the sirens of Whitman
Colleges cursed frat houses-see the explosive choruses of "James Dean,"
"Healthy Punk," and "Pussy Weed Beer." When No Regerts came out in the
summer of 2013, Seattle-and the world at large-took notice. I still
hear these songs in surprising places, and they still surprise me-just
as they did a decade ago. If you missed out the first time, this is
your second chance.

CHERRY GLAZERR - I DON'T WANT YOU ANYMORE (CLEAR VINYL)
It's been four years
since Cherry Glazerr released their resplendent third album Stuffed and
Ready, but Clementine Creevy has been in no rush. "I've spent these
years taking a hard look at myself, at my relationships, and writing
about it," she says. "I guess I'm coming to terms with a lot of my
bullshit." Cherry Glazerr has been on the road more often than not
since Creevy was still in high school, and when the pandemic hit, she
immersed herself in a static existence shed been deprived of. kkCreevy
describes Cherry Glazerr's ambitious new album, I Don't Want You
Anymore, as some of her most personal, raw music to date, a collection
of songs that elaborate on this period of self-reckoning. It's the
first she's produced since Cherry Glazerr's garage rock debut, Haxel
Princess, released nearly a decade ago when Creevy was a teenager.
kkCreevy describes I Don't Want You Anymore as a "mature" album, moreso
in reference to her personal growth than a reflection of the record,
which in true Cherry Glazerr fashion is best described as Extremely
Fun. To make it, Creevy linked up with producer Yves Rothman, who's
best known for his work with Yves Tumor. kkLead single "Soft Like a
Flower" exemplifies that growth. A murky guitar riff inaugurates the
track, before Creevy's unguarded vocals enter the mix. She sings of a
consuming obsession and is joined on the chorus by longtime bandmate
Sami Perez. It's proudly emotive, what Creevy calls an "Evanescence
moment." "It's a real 'losing your fucking shit' kind've vibe," she
says. "I wanted this album to be just heart and soul. Completely
exposed."kkI Don't Want You Anymore uses the element of surprise to its
advantage; each track is a radical reimagination of what Cherry Glazerr
is and can be. "Bad Habit" opens with a spiraling vocal loop that
Creevy began recording at home and it expands into a delirious
downtempo dance track without ever invoking a guitar. The subsequent
track, "Ready for You" is sung in funky staccato and the initially
spare bassline on the opening verse is eventually overtaken by a
massive, staticky guitar riff that reminds you this is, at its heart, a
rock album. These are songs to soundtrack the listener's life, a score
to suit any occasion. The titular track makes a promise to an unnamed
other, but the repeating lyrics on the bridge could just as easily
serve as a love letter to listeners: "In the end, you're always holding
me."

COWBOY JUNKIES - LAY IT DOWN
Every Cowboy Junkies
album is a sonic treat, full of gorgeous guitar tones from Michael
Timmins, haunting vocals from Margo Timmins, and beautiful
arrangements, and 1996s Lay it Down is no exception. But there is one
big difference between this album and its predecessors: it rocks! And
pretty hard, too, particularly on the Crazy Horse-esque Canadian hit "A
Common Disaster," "Just Want to See," and the Paisley Underground-style
title track. The pared-down quartet line-up accounts for some of this
tougher approach; but producer John Keane definitely shaped this albums
sound, lending these songs a palpable Athens, GA/R.E.M. vibe that
transports the Junkies out of their customary Americana/alt-country
territory into a more indie-rock feel. Lay It Down is a mature album,
tackling complex themes ("Come Calling [His Song]" and "Come Calling
[Her Song]" tackle the onset of Alzheimers from the perspective of an
elderly afflicted couple) with the confidence of a band at the peak of
its powers. Its long-overdue for a release on LP, and we at Real Gone
Music are proud to present it on pristine black vinyl inside a jacket
and printed inner sleeve with lyrics. A great listen.

COWBOY JUNKIES - SUCH FEROCIOUS BEAUTY (GREEN VINYL)
Such Ferocious
Beauty is vintage Cowboy Junkies and another dimension from the lo-fi
Canadian band comprised of, well, family. A tangle of sonic textures,
Beauty is a rumination on aging, losing parents, facing mortality and
creating space for one's life in the midst of the ruin that comes from
merely living. "Mike has never shied away from the darker, harder and
sometimes uglier realities of our human condition," Margo Timmins
explains of the band's singular focus, "nor has he shied from its
beauty. Thankfully, with one comes the other."
Cowboy Junkies are an alternative country and folk rock band formed in
Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 1985 by Alan Anton (bassist), Michael
Timmins (songwriter, guitarist), Peter Timmins (drummer) and Margo
Timmins (vocalist).
The band gained wide recognition with their second studio album, The
Trinity Session (1988), recorded in 1987 at Toronto's Church of the
Holy Trinity. Their sound, again using the ambisonic microphone, and
their mix of blues, country, folk, rock and jazz earned them both
critical attention and a strong fan base. Cowboy Junkies have gone on
to record 16 studio albums and five live albums, with tour dates booked
into 2023

CURRENT JOYS - LOVE + POP
LOVE + POP is a
snapshot of a moment in not-so-far-away time; something fast, loud,
moody and a little dangerous. It is, in some ways, classic Current
Joys: full of wild ambition, sneaky hooks, and songs that move from
concept to completion with prolific speed. But LOVE + POP also explodes
myriad expectations with aggressive, deconstructed production, house
music influence, and a guest appearance from Lil Yachty. It is not so
much a twist as it is a unique multiverse identity for Current Joys, as
Nick Rattigans set out to "capture this sonic moment and harken back to
the way I first released music." kkThe story of LOVE + POP begins with
one of those house parties: the kind that bulldozes your home and, in
its aftermath, leaves a wreckage that finds you flattened but also
ready to be new. In that mess and mayhem, Rattigan watched Everybodys
Everything, the documentary of Lil Peep, and recorded a cover of "walk
away as the door slams". But the itch wasnt scratched, and what began
as a moment of homage morphed into something bigger, deeper and more
fundamental, a point where the seemingly haphazard - in his home, in
Peeps process - opened Rattigan up to an entire creative space and a
new approach to bending or even detonating genre. Crucially, all of
this was recorded at home, in what Rattigan calls a "tribute to the
process of creating" in a DIY space. And what began as a singular
passion project unexpectedly grew into a uniquely collaborative record
for Current Joys. "Ive set out to make collaborative records before,"
Rattigan explains, "but they often end up totally me, with just a
couple exceptions. But then this record gave me the opportunity to be
extremely collaborative, to let other people write instrumental tracks,
sending links around for people to mess with and weigh in on. I sat
down to do credits and realized here were all these people and styles
and they all came together and worked." LOVE + POPs cover art is an
airbrush/spraypaint rendition of the Wild Heart album cover, which is
itself a photo of Rattigans grandparents kissing. It is sacred in some
ways and shredded in others. This idea - the aggressive reimagining of
something timeless into a present, finite style - is LOVE + POP.

Joys: full of wild ambition, sneaky hooks, and songs that move from
concept to completion with prolific speed. But LOVE + POP also explodes
myriad expectations with aggressive, deconstructed production, house
music influence, and a guest appearance from Lil Yachty. It is not so
much a twist as it is a unique multiverse identity for Current Joys, as
Nick Rattigans set out to "capture this sonic moment and harken back to
the way I first released music." The story of LOVE + POP begins with
one of those house parties: the kind that bulldozes your home and, in
its aftermath, leaves a wreckage that finds you flattened but also
ready to be new. In that mess and mayhem, Rattigan watched Everybodys
Everything, the documentary of Lil Peep, and recorded a cover of "walk
away as the door slams". But the itch wasnt scratched, and what began
as a moment of homage morphed into something bigger, deeper and more
fundamental, a point where the seemingly haphazard - in his home, in
Peeps process - opened Rattigan up to an entire creative space and a
new approach to bending or even detonating genre. Crucially, all of
this was recorded at home, in what Rattigan calls a "tribute to the
process of creating" in a DIY space. And what began as a singular
passion project unexpectedly grew into a uniquely collaborative record
for Current Joys. "Ive set out to make collaborative records before,"
Rattigan explains, "but they often end up totally me, with just a
couple exceptions. But then this record gave me the opportunity to be
extremely collaborative, to let other people write instrumental tracks,
sending links around for people to mess with and weigh in on. I sat
down to do credits and realized here were all these people and styles
and they all came together and worked." LOVE + POPs cover art is an
airbrush/spraypaint rendition of the Wild Heart album cover, which is
itself a photo of Rattigans grandparents kissing. It is sacred in some
ways and shredded in others. This idea - the aggressive reimagining of
something timeless into a present, finite style - is LOVE + POP.

DAIISTAR - GOOD TIME
'Good Time' is the
debut album from Austin, TX noise-pop band DAIISTAR, due out September
8th via Fuzz Club. Creating a narcotic blend of noise and melody, the
band takes their inspiration from the neo-psychedelic era of the 80s
and 90s and pull it into the future with modulating synthesisers, heavy
guitars, bouncing bass lines, and spiralling hooks. 'Good Time' was
produced by The Black Angels' Alex Maas and engineered by James
Petralli of White Denim.
Made up of Alex Capistran (guitar/vocals), Nick Cornetti (drums), Misti
Hamrick (bass) and Derek Strahan (keys), DAIISTAR formed in the spring
of 2020, just weeks before the pandemic started. "To us, these songs
were a glimmer of light", Capistran says: "Starting a band at the peak
of the pandemic to some might seem ill-timed, but to us it was a way to
escape for a moment. There was something to look forward to and we kept
our heads in the future. These songs guided us through some dark times
and hopefully they can do the same for you. GOOD TIME is here.

DEAFCULT - FUTURE OF ILLUSION
"Future Of Illusion"
takes an unexpected and important left turn. The second full-length
record from Australian outliers DEAFCULT examines mans intervention in
nature and the irreparable disconnection it causes. The more we
intervene the further away we get. If "Auras" was the dream, born in
what you can look back at as a simpler world, Illusion is the
nightmare.
SCREAMFEEDER's Kelli Lloyd joins the band on this new album. The record
features 15 tracks in a rage and introspectively-filled capsule of
abrasive punk/shoegaze. The soundtrack to now, existing within a ripped
hole in space and time which has led to absolute despair. Their first
album, 2017's "Auras" now in it's third pressing, continues to see
growing success, appealing to an ever-widening fanbase worldwide.

DECISIVE PINK - TICKET TO FAME (PINK VINYL)
Angel Deradoorian
and Kate NV are Decisive Pink - Ticket To Fame is their highly
anticipated debut. After teasing the single Haffmilch Holiday the duo
amassed a rapturous response, with The Guardian calling it "a
space-age-dancefloor swoon that brings to mind Kate Bushs Waking the
Witch" and the New York Times highlighting the single as "substantive
and thoroughly hypnotic". On their first LP they do not disappoint,
calling on Kate NVs experimental pop leanings and Angel Deradoorians
taste for atmosphere and otherworldliness, Decisive Pink have created a
playful and abstract album designed for escape and enchantment.
Electronic pop at its finest, the debut points to the fact that life is
a puzzle, but you can still get a lot from living it. Destiny is a
smart take on the nature of belief, built on a question-and-answer
format, where Angel plays a role as the seer, and Kate the enquirer.
The poppy beat is reminiscent of Talking Heads The Great Curve, from
Remain in Light. There again, it could be a sinister take on Will
Powers Kissing with Confidence. The synth squeaks, squelches and toots
sound like the timid affirmation of the initiate.
Ticket to Fame is also unashamedly romantic in atmosphere and tone.
Romance is to be found in the simple pleasures, such as listening to a
blackbird on the instrumental Rodeo, where warm synths, a melancholic
guitar pattern and hissing rhythm combine with some vocal snippets to
form a soothing contemplation. Then there is Ode to Boy; a perfect pop
track. The walking into the room of "more than just an ordinary boy"
(doubtless "drunk with fire") allows a set of initially different, and
shortened synth patterns to build to a glorious affirmation of the
power of love.

DEERHOOF - THE RUNNERS FOUR (PINK & BLUE VINYL)
Available on vinyl
for the first time in over 15 years! The Runners Four is Deerhoofs
double-LP concept album about friends banding together as honorable
outlaws in a corrupt world, deciding what to save in an apocalypse,
passing secret messages of warning and hope from a remade future back
to a soon-to-be-destroyed present. Abundant with lyrical allusions to
the flood, where cargo hold claustrophobia inside meets a watery chaos
outside, it was written and self-produced by Satomi Matsuzaki, John
Dieterich, Chris Cohen and Greg Saunier while they holed up in a rented
Oakland rehearsal room for the winter months 2004-5. On pink and blue
vinyl.
"a heavy football, a no-half-stepping opus, a defining statement.The
Runners Four should occasion a moment to notice how a little band has
gotten its scale and balance right: producing strong and
inexpensive-sounding records in its own studio, making coverts through
frequent touring, changing its sound every six months or so. Its not
easy, especially without becoming part of any movement." - The New York
Times
"Deerhoof.has succeeded at something thats very hard to do: It has made
records and built a devoted international following on the sheer power
of its imagination. And its a mad, wild imagination..." - The Boston
Globe
"Deerhoof has forged yet another delightfully odd pop gem, multifaceted
and sparkling with creativity." - Rolling Stone
"Deerhoof.makes the difficult wonderful." - The New Yorker
"At first, The Runners Four is close to incomprehensible. Songs stop as
soon as a hook seems to form; rhythms shift and cut like theyre running
for their lives.but when the mystery lifts and the melodies finally
stick-and they do-the album has the undeniable power of complete
originality." - TIME

DREAM SYNDICATE, THE - THE DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES
Debut album from the
hugely inspirational Dream Syndicate.
An exceptional early 80s guitar-powered gem, remastered in full and
includes the bands debut indie EP and both tracks from main protagonist
Steve Wynns earlier combo 15 Minutes.
Central to the hugely influential Paisley Underground scene of the
early 1980s that spawned Green On Red, The Bangles, Long Ryders and
Rain Parade.
With a nod to the Velvet Underground, Quicksilver Messenger Service and
Dylan, packed into an incendiary slow-burn punk fuse, The Days Of Wine
And Roses is a glorious, upbeat sprawl, everything that rock n roll
should be.
"The Days Of Wine And Roses is as timelessly potent as the records that
inspired it." Uncut
"Arguably the finest LP to come out of the Paisley Underground's salad
days." AllMusic
"One of the most lasting alternative rock albums made during an
explosive time for left-of-centre music." Psychedelic Baby.

DRUMS, THE - JONNY
On his latest album
as The Drums, New York-based indie pop artist Jonny Pierce plunges into
the work of healing from childhood trauma and the long shadow it casts
over adulthood. The sparkling, eponymous Jonny unfurls a love letter to
a galaxy of younger selves, all hungry to be nourished, all rejoicing
now that they finally get to belong. Playful, heartbreaking, raucous,
and serene all in turn, Jonny embraces the mess of life in all it's
facets. It renders the magic that happens when you fall in love with
yourself down to the marrow.
Soaring to alt-pop prestige on arrival, The Drums have released studio
albums that deftly walk the line of aching melancholy and irresistible
pop sensibilities, presented through a kaleidoscope of pastel guitars,
reverb, modular synthesizers and drum machines. It's a sound that's
wholly unique, and unmistakably The Drums. The Drums' music remains
timeless, as evidenced by the recent explosion of their RIAA
Gold-certified song Money, which first appeared on their breakout
sophomore album Portamento, reaching #1on the Alternative Global Shazam
Chart and #2 on the TikTok Global Hashtag Chart.

post-punk quintet dust is fast cementing their status as one of the
country's most singular and essential bands. Urgent, mesmeric, and
arresting both on and off the stage, the collective has wasted no time
in ensuring that their music and message reaches as far as it possibly
can. Offering a contemporary take on Australian post-punk, along with
elements of experimental jazz and electronic music, dust has curated a
sound that is as dark, introspective, and angular as it is powerful and
progressive. Together, theyre set to provide Australian music with the
sort of powerful jolt that will reverberate for years to come. For fans
of The Birthday Party, Fontaines D.C., and The Fall.

EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY - END
End, the enigmatic
new album by Explosions in the Sky, was inspired by darkness, but
became a loud, dramatic, wild rumination on life and death. "Our
starting point was the concept of an ending-death, or the end of a
friendship or relationship. Every song comes from a story, or an idea
one of us has had that we've all expanded on and made its own world.
Maybe it's our nature, but we kept feeling that the album title was
ultimately open to a lot more interpretation-the end of a thing or a
time can mean a stop, but it can also mean a beginning, and what
happens after one thing ends might pale in comparison to what it
becomes next," says the band about the album. End is perhaps the
"grandest" Explosions In The Sky album - melding the quiet restraint
and crushing feel of their early recordings with the aural exploration
and ornate experimentation of their later works (while incorporating
their increasingly deep film and television scoring catalog).

FARREN, CHRIS - DOOM SINGER
Transparent Bluish
vinyl w/ download card in wide spine jacket.. With his sophomore
full-length album, Born Hot, Chris Farren paired polished, up-beat pop
songs with lyrics full of self-examination and insecurity, all while
developing a newfound sense of humor when it came to promoting himself.
Stereogum called it "a tongue-in-cheek exploration of ideas of
confidence and self-loathing," while The Atlantic featured it on their
"Best Albums of 2019" list.
On his third full-length album, Doom Singer, Farren injects his latest
work with a newfound sense of power and cohesion. Collaborating for the
first time with outside drummer Frankie Impastato (Macseal), Farren's
songs take on a whole new dimensionality, with Impastato's live drums
bringing a fresh spontaneity to the tracks. Doom Singer marks another
significant milestone in Farren's career as it is the first time he
collaborated with a producer, multi-instrumentalist Melina Duterte (Jay
Som, Bachelor, Routine). Her masterful production experience adds a
layer of sophistication to Farren's sound, creating a rich and
multi-dimensional sonic landscape that takes his music to new heights.
With Duterte's keen ear and meticulous attention to detail, the album
resonates with a level of clarity and depth that showcases Farren's
songwriting and vocal abilities in a whole new light. Chris Farren's
music has been praised in outlets such as MTV, Stereogum, and The
Atlantic, who describes his music as having "bright-eyed hooks, sparkly
orchestration, and tight songwriting." With numerous world tours
alongside artists such as Jeff Rosenstock, The Gaslight Anthem, Laura
Stevenson, and others, Farren has been building a dedicated following
of fans who connect with his introspective lyrics and infectious pop
sensibilities.

FOLDS, BEN - WHAT MATTERS MOST
"More than anything,
I wanted to make an album that was generous, that was useful," says Ben
Folds. "I want you to finish this record with something you didnt have
when you started."
Indeed, Folds masterful new collection, What Matters Most, isnt so much
a statement as it is an offering, an open hand reaching out to all
those wounded and bewildered by a world that seems to make less and
less sense every day. Recorded in East Nashville with co-producer Joe
Pisapia, the album marks Folds first new studio release in eight years,
and its a bold, timely, cinematic work, one that examines the tragic
and the absurd in equal measure as it reckons with hope and despair,
gratitude and loss, identity and perspective. The songs are bittersweet
here, hilarious at times, but often laced with a quiet sense of longing
and dread: a text message goes unanswered; an old classmate descends
into the dark depths of internet conspiracies; a relationship unravels
in the middle of a lake. And yet, taken as a whole, the result is an
undeniably joyful record that refuses to succumb to the weight of the
world around it, an ecstatic reminder of all the beauty and promise
hiding in plain sight for anyone willing (and present enough) to
recognize their moments as they arrive.

FOO FIGHTERS - BUT HERE WE ARE
But Here We Are is
the new album from Foo Fighters, and marks the bands return after a
year of staggering losses, personal introspection and bittersweet
remembrances. A brutally honest and emotionally raw response to
everything Foo Fighters have endured recently, But Here We Are is a
testament to the healing powers of music, friendship and family.
Courageous, damaged and unflinchingly authentic, the album opens with
"Rescued," the first of 10 songs that run the emotional gamut from rage
and sorrow to serenity and acceptance, and myriad points in between.
But Here We Are is in nearly equal measure the 11th Foo Fighters album
and the first chapter of the band's new life. Sonically channeling the
naiveté of Foo Fighters' 1995 debut, informed by decades of maturity
and depth, But Here We Are is the sound of brothers finding refuge in
the music that brought them together in the first place 28 years ago, a
process that was as therapeutic as it was about a continuation of life.

anything that had been seen for a young American rock band in recent
memory. Suddenly a band that had previously planned to release some
music, break up, and go away to college was touring the world. And
during this entire process, that very same band everyone was getting to
know ceased to exist.
On a practical level, Geese are still the group we were introduced to
in 2021. But spiritually, Geese have returned as an entirely different
prospect. Their new album 3D Country is the sound of a restless,
adventurous band redefining themselves.
Anyone who has seen Geese live recently mightve noticed the band
adopted a different vibe onstage - more of a volcanic, unpredictable
aesthetic. It turns out that wasnt a flipside to the recordings of
Projector, but foreshadowing that there was more to the story. Knowing
they were now beyond teenage basement experiments and were instead
making something for an audience who would hear it, Geese felt
emboldened. "When we were writing Projector it was about narrowing the
scope, trying to do more with less," Gus Green says. "When we started
writing for 3D Country we were trying to do a lot more and seeing what
worked and what didnt."
At the same time, theyre well aware of how significant a departure
theyve made. "As music listeners, we all appreciate bands who change
over time, and are comfortable with risk," Cameron Winter adds. It
wasnt necessarily a given that Geese would overhaul their sound, but
with age came new adventures and interests. "Maybe the last record was
our teenage angst and 3D Country is our newfound twenty-something
arrogance," he quips.

GENERATIONALS - HEATHERHEAD (WHITE VINYL)
As Generationals,
Grant Widmer and Ted Joyner have been stretching the boundaries of pop
music for over a decade. From Con Law, their ebullient 2009 debut, to
their adventurous and groove-infused LP from 2019 Reader As Detective,
the New Orleans based duo have made songs that are consistently
immediate and memorable. Even though their music always sounds
effortless, they approach their songwriting with an auteur-like
perfectionism: constantly tweaking and fine-tuning their craft.

GOAT - MEDICINE
It is hard to know
how many times the mythology and mystery of Goats backstory can be
written about, but new release Medicine does away with any need to
dwell on the past, returning with a more introspective, slightly
mellower psych-folk sound that remains recognisably them.
There is a consistently restrained, warm feel across the whole work,
and the band suggest that the overall theme of the album is about "the
impermanence of life in different ways: sickness, relationships, love,
death and how our time is finite".
At times the albums sound has nods to classic Swedish 70s
psych/prog/folk acts such as Arbete & Fritid, Charlie & Esdor
and Trd, Grs & Stenar. Vakna takes on this influence, progressing
across nearly six minutes of swaying, warping guitar solos, without
ever breaking out into chaos.
The Medicine of the title may refer to a number of salves, or the value
of relationships and love: "For our families, friends, society, this
could be done through the use of psychedelics, through meditation,
through learning from other people, staying curious and never settling
for a solid identity".
Flute is foregrounded throughout, threading across several tracks from
the opener Impermanence And Death. It duets elegantly with keening
synth lines through the beautiful Youll Be Alright, and leads the
melody of the closing track Tripping In The Graveyard. TSOD, with its
backdrop of sitar and acoustic guitar, has an indelible vocal melody
that could be a lost George Harrison recording.
The title of the full album version of first single, I Became The
Unemployment Office, comes from an expression for someone taking
advantage of you. The joyous, echo-laden groove of penultimate track
Join The Resistance bursts into life and continues to build to a moment
of release with a huge Sabbath-esque riff.

GOOD LIFE, THE - ALBUM OF THE YEAR (GOLD VINYL)
Reissue limited to
1000 copies on double "gold nugget" vinyl. Originally released in 2004.
Album Of The Year brings all that is the sound of The Good Life to
fruition: catchy, moody pop/rock that fluctuates between the all-ages
club and the smoky cabaret, right alongside sing-along crescendos that
spin into cinematic bursts. It also proved to be The Good Life's most
critically acclaimed album to date. Pitchfork gave it an 8.0, while AP
called it one of the 10 essential albums of 2004.
Album Of The Year brings the evolving sound of The Good Life to
fruition- catchy, moody pop/rock that fluctuates between the all-ages
club and the smoky cabaret, right alongside sing-along crescendos that
spin into cinematic bursts. Every song has a plan, going to a place
that will inevitably involve leaving, being left, or leaving in
anticipation of being left. Tim Kasher's ability to cleverly turn an
innocuous phrase into a malicious slur of ill will leaves you not
knowing whether to laugh or cry, all while giving you the distinct
impression that you'll be quoting him at some point down the road.

GROUPLOVE - I WANT IT ALL RIGHT NOW (INDIE)
This. As their
familiarly colorful pop-rock instrumentation pairs with Zucconi's
emotional vocal delivery, the track introduces Grouplove's latest
chapter as a boisterous yet lyrically prodding investigation of their
inner lives.
While the choruses across the record reach for the rafters just as much
as they did on early breakout singles "Colours" and "Tongue Tied," the
themes on I Want It All Right Now are largely comprised of candid
meditations on what Zucconi and co-vocalist Hannah Hooper are reaching
for in life-as a band, as individuals, as romantic partners, and, most
recently, as parents. Rather than voicing these questions over minimal
acoustic accompaniment, though, they're competing with some of the
band's most energetic and experimental soundscapes to date, each of the
11 tracks more unexpected than the next.

GUIDED BY VOICES - WELSHPOOL FRILLIES
Robert Pollard has a
very strong work ethic. With most of their touring canceled due to the
pandemic and then a fractured kneecap, Guided By Voices ran up an
extremely prolific streak in the studio, recording and releasing eight
albums in the past three years and garnering piles of rave four star
and five star reviews in the process. In case one were snoozing, the
last album, La La Land was Uncut magazines "Best Of The Month." The
pandemic records were particularly notable and unique that the band
members recorded most of their instruments individually in separate
cities. Welshpool Frillies finds the gang back together, in a Brooklyn
basement with producer Travis Harrison. Much of it was recorded live to
tape. The catchy ear worms in these new songs are undeniable, as the
kinetic energy of the band is captured in its most raw and pure form.
The album is brash, no-frills, and punky, inspired by the wiliness of
90s-era GBV, specifically the Scalping The Guru compilation that
Pollard put together in 2022. 2023 marks the 40th anniversary of GBV's
start in Dayton, Ohio. Robert Pollard was an elementary school teacher
with no formal music training, and his unlikely success has been an
odds-defying adventure. It's never too late to discover this vital rock
band and join the GBV cult.

HARPER, BEN - WIDE OPEN LIGHT
"Wide Open Light Is
a family of songs I've written.kI've selected them with the care one
might put into a personal photo album. To that effect, I'd call it a
sonic family photo album, each track a close relative to the next. The
story behind this record is simple. I have been writing songs now for
over 30 years. It's what I long to do, love to do, and at times feel I
need to do, and hope to continue doing until the ink runs dry and the
notes fade. But for now, Wide Open Light. Deliberately minimalist, the
songs themselves do as much of the heavy lifting as the production.
(produced by myself, and my longtime collaborators Danny Kalb and Jason
Mozersky) Featured guests on the album include: Jack Johnson guitar,
vocals on 'Gone For Good' Shelby Lynne vocals on '8 Minutes' Piers
Faccini vocals on 'Wide Open Light'" - Ben Harper

PJ Harveys tenth
studio album I Inside the Old Year Dying marks her first release in
seven years, following UK #1 album The Hope Six Demolition Project. On
this album, which was recorded with long-time creative collaborators
John Parish and Flood, PJ Harvey builds a sonic universe somehow
located in a space between lifes opposites, and between recent history
and the ancient past. Scattered with biblical imagery and references to
Shakespeare, all of these distinctions ultimately dissolve into
something profoundly uplifting and redemptive.

HECKER, TIM - NO HIGHS
The latest by
Canadian composer Tim Hecker serves as a beacon of unease against the
deluge of false positive corporate ambient currently in vogue. Whether
taken as warning or promise, No Highs delivers-this is music of
austerity and ambiguity, purgatorial and seasick. A jagged
anti-relaxant for our medicated age, rough-hewn and undefined. Morse
code pulse programming flickers like distress signals while a gathering
storm of strings, noise, and low-end looms in the distance. Processed
electronics shiver and shudder against pitch-shifting assemblages of
crackling voltage, mantric horns (including exquisite modal sax by
Colin Stetson), and cathedral keys. Throughout, the pieces both accrue
and avoid drama, more attuned to undertow than crescendo. Hecker
mentions "negation" as a muse of sorts-the sense of tumult without
bombast, tethered ecstasies, an escape from escapism. His is an
antagonism both brusque and beguiling, devoid of resolution, beckoning
the listener ever deeper into its greyscale alchemies of magisterial
disquiet.

HYDROPLANE - SELECTED SONGS 1997-2003
Selected Songs
1997-2003 compiles some of the finest moments in the recording history
of Hydroplane, the Melbourne-based indie-pop three-piece that operated
alongside The Cats Miaow through the second half of the nineties. Its
the third release in what feels, now, like a loosely planned series by
World Of Echo, documenting the music made by this group of friends in
Melbourne sharehouses or, in the case of The Shapiros, while traversing
the International Pop Underground.
Andrew Withycombe, Bart Cummings and Kerrie Bolton, all members of The
Cats Miaow, were the Hydroplanes core. If The Cats Miaow was about the
perfect, minimalist, two-minute pop song, Hydroplanes music was far
more open-ended, embracing the loops and drones, sampled house-y
shuffle beats, the burbling of a Roland Jupiter-4 synth, all of which
the trio joined, effortlessly, to their endless capacity for moving,
elegant melodicism.
The hazy repetition of the gentler side of Krautrock is in here,
somewhere, which also suggests Stereolab at their most intimate and
disarmed; the gently drifting guitars, gauzy and oneiric. Songs like
"The Love You Bring" set indistinct tonal floats across dance rhythms,
in a way not quite heard since My Bloody Valentines "Instrumental" -
but with the added gift of Boltons gorgeous voice.
This loose coalition with dance music, and the quiet experimentalism,
gestures towards peers like Hood, Acetate Zero and Other Peoples
Children, and releases on renegade labels like Wurlitzer Jukebox and
Enraptured. The Cats Miaow were reconciling independent pop musics past
- sweet melody and melancholy, chiming and droning guitars - with the
futures promised by DIY electronics and nascent digitalia, the
interface of indie and IDM that led to some of the undergrounds most
blissful, texturally swoonsome music.

ILLUMINATI HOTTIES - KISS YR FRENEMIES (COLOR VINYL)
Despite the
pluralized nom de guerre, illuminati hotties is the creative outlet of
Sarah Tudzin - a producer and engineer hailing from the sprawl of Los
Angeles. The band has been lighting up stages across SoCal since the
Fall of 2016 with playfully interweaving guitar lines, relentless
rhythmic momentum and strikingly self aware vocals. Lauded as local
tender punk pioneers, illuminati hotties has perfected the blend of
sweetness and ferocity, of celebration and despondency, in its upcoming
debut album, Kiss Yr Frenemies. At first listen, these 11 sparkling
tracks are a sun-drenched, irreverent volley with the onset of
adulthood, but as the listener dives deeper, they will find an earnest
consideration of musical phrasing and deliberately crafted wordplay
regarding the complexity of love, loss and skateboarding.

JESUS AND MARY CHAIN - MUNKI
To celebrate the
albums 25-year anniversary, The Jesus And Mary Chain are reissuing
their long-sold-out sixth studio album Munki. Out October 6th 2023 on
Fuzz Club, the reissue arrives on CD and gatefold double LP. The vinyl
has been remastered by Pete Maher (The Rolling Stones, Jack White, Liam
Gallagher). Originally released June 2nd 1998 on Sub Pop / Creation
Records, Munki was - up until the Mary Chains reformation in 2007 - an
experimental rocknroll masterclass turned swan song for the Reid
brothers, whose fractious in-fighting culminated in the bands break-up
less than a year after its release. It was perhaps fitting, then, that
Munki is argued by some as the definitive Mary Chain record in the way
it seemed to chart the full array of musical directions the band had
ploughed over the five records that came before. The decision to
bookend the album with Jims rousing sing-along I Love Rock 'N' Roll and
Williams caustic white-noise anthem I Hate Rock 'N' Roll perfectly
captures the two-fold tension at the heart of the Mary Chain at that
time - a tension between noise and melody, and warring brothers. Across
the albums 17 tracks and 70-minute running time, there are the expected
abrasive noise-rock epics Cracking Up and Degenerate by way of
fuzzed-out pop hits like Fizzy and the tender acoustic slow-burner
Never Understood. Between the Reids Glaswegian snarls and
unapologetically insolent lyrics - "I'm a mean motherf*cker now, but I
once was cool", "McDonalds is sh*t!", "Children are fools!" being just
a few lyrical highlights - Munki also features two great guest
appearances. Mazzy Stars Hope Sandoval returns for another Mary Chain
duet on Perfume, which has a swagger thats equal parts menacing and
bittersweet, and the Reids younger sister Linda (Sister Vanilla) sings
beautifully on top of Moe Tuckers motorik proto-punk scuzz.

JOHNSTON, DANIEL - REJECTED UNKNOWN
Rejected Unknown is
a 2001 album released by the acclaimed musician, Daniel Johnston. This
is the first time the record has been pressed to vinyl in over 20
years.
"The main themes on Rejected Unknown are the themes Johnston has
explored throughout much of his career: hopeless longing, unrequited
love, and as might be gathered from the album's title, fear of
rejection. This fear probably took on very real terms for Johnston as
he was finally dropped from Atlantic Records after being held for years
in contractual limbo. Rejected Unknown is unmistakably Johnston's
album; he sings and plays piano and guitar, and even adds some
percussion to the oddly quirky pop songs."

JUNGLE - VOLCANO
'Volcano' follows
Jungle's previous album 'Loving In Stereo', which proved to be a
landmark moment for the acclaimed UK duo. It achieved their highest
domestic UK chart position to date debuting at #3, while also achieving
their best ever album chart positions in key international territories
such as Australia, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands; and in
the US it catapulted to #1 on the Billboard Dance Albums chart which
led to major Arena shows as guests to Billie Eilish. The free-spirited
energy that runs right through 'Volcano' reflects how organically it
came together. J and T had written most of the record on tour before
starting the recording process while staying in an Airbnb in Los
Angeles. It was later completed back home in London at their favourite
location, Studio B at Metropolis Studios. This time around, the duo
wanted to include a wider variety of voices within the album. In
addition to Erick The Architect, they reunited with Bas (who previously
featured on the 'Loving In Stereo' single 'Romeo') for 'Pretty Little
Thing', as well as calling on talents in the shape of Roots Manuva,
Channel Tres and JNR Williams.

ONE LITTLE INDIAN
5016958100414 |
K.U.K.L. - THE EYE
With its scattered
guitar squalls, blood-boiling squeals, and scattershot rhythms, this
record may strike casual Sugarcubes/Bjork purveyors as practically
impenetrable. Indeed, although assembled as a sort of Icelandic indie
supergroup, Kukl never made music that could be deemed in any way
accessible; on first listen, The Eye is a patently draining affair
seemingly devoid of any coherent structure. Repeated spins, however,
unearth a highly sophisticated aesthetic that borrows evenly from punk,
noisecore, avant garde, and good old-fashioned indie. Although highly
discordant and often atonal, it's a curiously engaging record, aided in
part by Bjork's darkly emotive vocals and the presiding, almost
mythical, sense of impending lunacy. It may not be for everyone, but
this is gutsy, non-conformist music as authored by one of the most
passionate, intense bands in Iceland's esteemed history. - Allmusic.com

KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD - FLYING MICROTONAL BANANA (LUCKY RAINBOW)
King Gizzard &
The Lizard Wizard are the most exciting head-spinning, third-eye
opening, double-drumming goddamn rock ' roll band on the planet.
Following the frazzled freakbeat of 2016's Nonagon Infinity, the
endlessly inventive septet return in 2017 with the new album Flying
Microtonal Banana, their ninth studio album in five years, and the
first of five-count planned new albums to be recorded and released in
2017 and beyond.
Flying Microtonal Banana marks another shift in sound as King Gizzard
& The Lizard Wizard drive deep into trance-inducing drones,
inventive jazz flourishes, non-Western musical scales and metronomic
rhythms that motor along like a well-oiled engine. So unique and
evolved is the album's sound that it necessitated a total reinvention
of the band's instruments after they began experimenting with a custom
microtonal guitar made for frontman Stu Mackenzie.

KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD - MURDER OF THE UNIVERSE (COSMIC CARNAGE EDITIO
A concept album to
end all concepts, Murder Of The Universe is the 2017 collection by
head-bending psychedelicists King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.
Murder Of The Universe is a face-melting musical assault concerned with
the downfall of man, the death of the planet....the murder of the whole
goddamn universe. A disorientating experience, the album hinges on
three distinct chapters that rise from larval beds, and whose lyrics
should be carved in stone, squeezed from moss, discovered in ancient
runes. And all the while a passing cast of characters imbue the tale
with both human and non-human emotions.

KING KHAN - THE INVADERS O.S.T.
Documentary film The
Invaders (2022) follows the rise and fall of a militant black power
group based in Memphis, TN in the late 1960s, from its creation, to
their final negotiations with Martin Luther King Jr. minutes before his
assassination. Filmmaker Prichard Smiths striking documentary features
all new music composed by the legendary King Khan, which is now being
released as a beautiful 18-track double LP featuring contributions from
Adan Jodorowsky, Saba Lou (Khans daughter), Ian Svenonius and more.
From full throttle rock tracks to haunting string pieces and propulsive
instrumental grooves, these songs also mark a return to the rock world
after Khans adventurous and acclaimed pair of instrumental jazz/soul
albums (2003s The Nature of Things and 2020s The Infinite Ones). A
handful of these tracks have previously appeared on limited and now out
of print 7"s during the filmmaking process, often in alternate
versions, but this marks the first time all of Khans contributions to
The Invaders will be available in one place (and many for the first
time).

KING KRULE - SPACE HEAVY
Written from 2020 to
2022 in between London and Liverpool, Space Heavy took shape over the
course of Archys commutes between the two cities where he was splitting
his time. Befitting an album quite literally written on the commute
between the two places he called home, Archy found himself fascinated
by the notion of "the space between" - the space haunted by dreams of
love, touching a narrative of lost connection, losing people and
situations to the guillotine of the universe. Space Heavy, indeed.
The result is an album that inhabits the deepest reaches of the
subterranean sonic world that Archy has constructed over the course of
his career as King Krule. In it you hear a generational artist stepping
into the height of their artistic powers - the auteurism apparent on
his debut 6 Feet Beneath The Moon, the shapeshifting sonic palette of
The OOZ and the primality of Man Alive! all coalesce into a wizened,
dynamic body of work that reveals new elements with each listen. In
line with Archys interest in the space between, it is an album wherein
the negative space demands the same attention as the positive space. If
one is willing to wade into the mire the reward is rich.

KINSELLA, TIM & JENNY PULSE - GIDDY SKELTER (YELLOW VINYL)
Tim Kinsella and
Jenny Pulse have spent years making thoughtful and unpredictable art,
whether musically as Joan of Arc or Spa Moans, or under their given
names as writers and visual artists. On Giddy Skelter, their debut
album as the unadorned "Tim Kinsella and Jenny Pulse," they once again
take an unexpected turn, but aim for something more direct. Theyve
crafted a swirling, past-future, future-past, sorta-rock, collage-rock,
melange borne from the confined anxiety of the pandemic. Its a
full-length undeniably of its moment, rich with musical references
while radiating a visionary path forward.
To assemble Giddy Skelter, Kinsella and Pulse aggressively culled their
tracklist until they had a lean and impactful 11 songs, unlike anything
either musician has released before. Opening track "Unblock Obstacles"
chugs along on a three-chord riff and dubbed-out drums before venturing
into a hypnotic, feedback-filled drone that channels pre-Loveless My
Bloody Valentine. "Over and Over" imagines a world where Slowdive or
Lush collaborated with Prefuse 73. On "Nena," one minute features loops
of classical piano, the next Spacemen 3-style psychedelic drone, and
the next contemporary R&B. The majority of songs on Giddy Skelter
foreground Pulses yearning, ethereal vocals, giving the music a
distinctly feminine overtone.
Sometimes the thing that makes great rock n roll is the ineffable and
the intangible, something you can only describe as alchemy; other times
its the rigors of process. On Kinsella and Pulses Giddy Skelter, its
both - and it sounds unlike anything else youll hear this year.

LATTIMORE, MARY - GOODBYE, HOTEL ARKADA (COLOR VINYL)
"And Then He Wrapped
His Wings Around Me," Lattimore looks to two of her closest friends -
songwriter Meg Baird, her collaborator on 2018s Ghost Forests, and
accordionist composer Walt McClements, who shes toured and performed
alongside - to surface a core memory. As a kid, Lattimore won a drawing
contest through a country radio station and got to see Sesame Street
Live! in Asheville. She and her mom were invited backstage, and there
the benevolent icon Big Bird "gave me an incredible hug with his
scratchy yellow wings." The trio channel the enveloping warmth of that
portrait, the feeling of innocent escape, flying away towards a
childhood dream that is just out of reach, surreal, and tinged with
sadness. In a rare vocal passage in Lattimores library, Baird softly
hums with the rolling washes of harp above McClements tranquil drone;
just for a moment, we are held in a sublime canary yellow embrace.

LAURENCE-ANNE - ONIROMANCIE
Since the release of
her debut album Première apparitions, Laurence-Anne made a name for
herself on the Canadian alternative music scene as she earned a spot on
the coveted Polaris Prize Long List and the number one spot on Montreal
campus radio CISM's roundup of Francophone albums of the year. The new
darling of critics and college radios performed at all of Quebecs big
music festivals and even tested the waters in France (MaMA, Avec le
Temps, Aurores Montre'al) before returning home to record Accident, an
EP with a touch of punk, indie-pop and tropical vibes, and her first
release via Bonsound. This astonishing, fertile sound exploration set
the stage for the creation of her second full-length album Musivision,
released in April 2021. This album took her across Quebec, along with
the opportunity to perform in France at the Avec le temps festival and
in the United States at SXSW and as the opening act for the South
Korean group Se So Neon (Brooklyn, Washington, Boston, New York and
others). Her next album, Oniromancie, which is set to come out under
Bonsound on September 8th, 2023, will showcase the hushed, nocturnal
sweetness of her musical universe.

LE BON, CATE (2023 REISSUE) (INDIE EXCLUSIVE) - CRAB DAY
Re-issue of Cate Le
Bon's April 2016 album originally released on Drag City which she
described as "A coalition of inescapable feelings and fabricated
nonsense," . A few years prior to its release, Cate's mother unearthed
her birth certificate, and admitted to her daughter that they'd had her
birthday a day off for nearly three decades. That sense of misaligned
reality is the guiding force on Crab Day, where Cate establishes a
strange, almost Dadaist lyrical scheme to make sense-or make more
nonsense-of some unnamed life rupture that's left her grasping.

LEWIS, JENNY - JOY'ALL
Jenny Lewis fifth
solo album, JoyAll arrives June 9th. JoyAll finds the singer-songwriter
embarking on a new era, in a new town - and on a new label, as she
joins the iconic roster of Blue Note/Capitol Records. While JoyAll
pulls from a bounty of sonic inspiration - from classic soul to 90s
R&B, as well as country and classic singer-songwriter records - the
albums rich, intimate and warm live sound is the hallmark of eight-time
GRAMMY-winning producer Dave Cobb. Recorded at Nashvilles historic RCA
Studio A, JoyAll includes new single "Psychos" and the previously
released single "Puppy and a Truck."

LORELLE MEETS THE OBSOLETE - DATURA
The sixth Lorelle
Meets The Obsolete record represents something of a genre shift for the
Mexican duo, with their previous albums' extended psych jams making way
for a lean, grinding and often confrontational form of industrial
post-punk that makes few concessions to listener comfort: the album
slams awake to the sound of apocalyptic crumbling, all sweeping buzzes,
powering-down synths, and dead-behind-the-eyes stomp, and even when the
component parts coalesce, a thick, astringent treacle coats everything
in earshot.

LOVE AND ROCKETS - HOT TRIP TO HEAVEN
Love and Rockets
fifth album Hot Trip To Heaven is strikingly different from anything
previous. The album has a diverse range of influences, from twisted
lounge jazz to ambient trance. With additional vocals by the celebrated
Egyptian-Belgian singer Natacha Atlas, the albums world music
influences are evident. A critical piece of their catalog, many have
noted that the album is brave and radical. New York Magazine said it
was "hypnotic, glistening, dark and crashing." The album was ahead of
its time, pre-dating the electronic music revolution by a few years.

LOVE AND ROCKETS - SWEET F.A.
Rick Rubin guided
Love and Rockets to a return to more guitar- based songs for 1996s
Sweet F.A. While the band were living and working at Rubins studio
mansion, a fire broke out, which resulted in the band losing all of
their gear, some of their demo recordings, and nearly their lives as
well. A burnt guitar plucked from the debris is on the albums cover.
The resulting album was inspired by some of their earliest influences -
The Velvet Underground, The Stooges, Can. It spins tales of passion and
loss, carried on a fluid, moody throb. Undulating, hypnotic rhythms
twine around melancholy lyrics which examine life at a primal level, as
ethereal electronic effects play counterpoint to earthquake
reverberating guitars.

LOVELESS, LYDIA - NOTHING'S GONNA STAND IN MY WAY AGAIN (INDIE)
A follow-up to her
critically acclaimed 2020 LP Daughter, Nothings Gonna Stand in My Way
Again continues the evolution of Loveless (she/her/they/them): a
fiercely brave writer who bluntly assesses their life in song. Their
trademark candidness and razor-sharp wit remain as they lay bare their
raw pain-struggles with alcohol and depression, a breakup with their
longtime boyfriend, and uncertainty about the future-but here Loveless
voice is wiser and more controlled. And while she holds onto a vintage
country heart and a heartland rock soul, this album also presents
something new and matured: a sound akin to Rumors and Tusk-era
Fleetwood Mac.
Nothings Gonna Stand in My Way Again (named one of Pitchforks most
anticipated albums of the year) is not only a break-up record drifting
back to some of the best of its kind, like Richard & Linda
Thompsons Shoot Out the Lights, Superchunks Foolish and, of course,
Rumors. Its also a reminder to keep improving oneself, taking ownership
and moving forward-alone, if needed. Captivating and complex, its a
triumphant moment from an artist whos continuing their stride.

LUNA - THE DAYS OF OUR NIGHTS (ORANGE VINYL)
Galaxie 500
co-founder Dean Wareham took his penchant for crafting sneakily hooky
indie pop songs with gorgeously melodic, Television-esque guitar work
into the 90s with his band Luna. The group made four
critically-acclaimed albums for Elektra.but in 1999, the label dropped
them on the eve of releasing The Days of Our Nights, leaving them
without American distribution (the album was eventually released on the
short-lived Jericho imprint). As a result, The Days of Our Nights has
been hard to find over the years; in fact, this marks the first time
its been available as a stand-alone vinyl release in the U.S. But it
really is a lost gem in their catalog; as Wareham says "Sometimes all
you remember is the pain of making a record, or the events swirling
around its release, and its only years later you come to appreciate the
songs. The Days of Our Nights sounds like classic Luna, and we still
play a handful of these songs in our live set."
Highlights include "Superfreaky Memories" (a hit for the band in
Spain), "U.S. Out of My Pants!," "Hello Little One" (written for Noah
Baumbachs film Mr Jealousy), and a beautiful, Velvets-y cover of "Sweet
Child O Mine" complete with a breathtaking solo by guitarist Sean Eden.
Our Real Gone reissue features an orange swirl pressing housed inside a

LUNCH, LYDIA - QUEEN OF SIAM
After the demise of
Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, Lydia Lunch launched her solo career with
Queen Of Siam, arguably her greatest LP. In true No Wave style, the
album is a mishmash of irritants, but her palette is far broader here,
lurching from slow dirges, excessive feminist exhortations, and raucous
personal purges to a touch of disco and lounge music exoticism, as
conjured by Voidoids/Lou Reed guitarist Robert Quine, Contortions
bassist Jack Ruby, and John Cales drummer, Douglas Browne. Spirited,
surprisingly broad and defiantly dissonant, Queen Of Siams dense layers
were designed to provoke and inflame; listen closely to fully decode.

MEGIRA, CHARLIE & THE MODERN DANCE CLUB - LOVE POLICE
Provocative
post-punk from Israel's undercover goth prince. Megira's lone album
with the Modern Dance Club showcased a grimier, more driving vision of
his brand of trashy no wave. Spread across 31 tracks and two LPs, Love
Police schizophrenically mixes industrial soundscapes, surf ditties,
hardcore, swamp pop, bubble grunge, screaming, ecstasy, and enough fuzz
to warrant a needle check.

What You Stand To
Lose is the new album from Las Vegas-based alternative rock band Mercy
Music. It features 11 songs, including the singles "Love You/Need You",
"Suddenly", and "Found Out Im Useless". The record was produced by Bill
Stevenson (Descendents, ALL, Black Flag) and Mercy Music at The
Blasting Room, where it was also mixed and mastered by Jason Livermore
(Descendents, Propagandhi, NOFX, Hot Water Music). Rebel Noise had this
to say about the record: "Las Vegas punks Mercy Music bring a special
brand of pop punk on their newest effort 'What You Stand To Lose'. Very
much in the vein of classic punk acts like Jawbreaker, Jawbox,
Samiam..." The record was jointly released by Double Helix Records and
SBM Records. To ensure a high-fidelity listening experience, the
lacquers for What You Stand To Lose were cut by Wes Garland at
Nashville Record Productions in Nashville, Tennessee and the vinyl was
hand-pressed by the incredible team at Burlington Record Plant in
Burlington, Vermont. First pressing of 500 copies comes on colored
vinyl. Includes digital album download.

MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE - IF (COLOR)
LIMITED PURPLE &
RED MARBLED 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl, 2 printed inner sleeves,
gatefold, numbered to 2500. Mindless Self Indulgence's fourth studio
album If is renowned for it's energetic and provocative style.
Originally released in 2008, the album features a total of 15 tracks,
including the popular songs 'Never Wanted To Dance', 'Lights Out',
'Prescription', and 'Get It Up'. Although the vinyl album has been out
of print since it's release, it remains a fan favorite.
The album is a unique fusion of various genres, such as punk,
electronic, industrial, hip-hop, and pop. The fast-paced, high-energy
beats and aggressive, controversial, and often humorous lyrics combine
to create a sound that blends off-the-wall dark humor with frank
depictions of excess. Tracks like 'Revenge' and 'Animal' highlight the
band's signature blend of punk, rock, and electronic dance beats, while
songs like 'Mark David Chapman' and 'Mastermind' push the boundaries of
taste and shock value.

MITSKI - THE LAND IS INHOSPITABLE AND SO ARE WE
Sometimes, Mitski
says, it feels like life would be easier without hope, or a soul, or
love. But when she closes her eyes and thinks about whats truly hers,
what can't be repossessed or demolished, she sees love. "The best thing
I ever did in my life was to love people," Mitski says. "I wish I could
leave behind all the love I have, after I die, so that I can shine all
this goodness, all this good love that I've created onto other people."
She hopes her newest album, The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We,
will continue to shine that love long after shes gone. Listening to it,
thats precisely how it feels: like a love that's haunting the land.
"This is my most American album," Mitski says about her seventh record,
and the music feels like a profound act of witnessing this country, in
all of its private sorrows and painful contradictions. In this album,
which is sonically Mitski's most expansive, epic, and wise, the songs
seem to be introducing wounds and then actively healing them. Here,
love is time- traveling to bless our tender days, like the light from a
distant star. The album is full of the ache of the grown-up, seemingly
mundane heartbreaks and joys that are often unsung but feel enormous.
It's a tiny epic. From the bottom of a glass, to a driveway slushy with
memory and snow, to a freight train barreling through the Midwest, and
all the way to the moon, it feels like everything, and everyone, is
crying out, screaming in pain, arching towards love. Love is that
inhospitable land, beckoning us and then rejecting us. To love this
place - this earth, this America, this body - takes active work. It
might be impossible. The best things are.

MOUNTAIN GOATS - JENNY FROM THEBES
Surprise sequel to
the band's acclaimed All Hail West Texas album. Jenny from Thebes
includes guest performance by Alicia Bognanno (of Bully), Kathy
Valentine (of the Go-Go's) and Matt Nathanson. It was produced by
four-time Grammy Award winner Trina Shoemaker. In the canon of Mountain
Goats releases, All Hail marked the end & also the pinnacle of a
beloved lo-fi Mountain Goats era (until Songs for PIerre Chuvin arrived
in pandemic 20 years later), before John Darnielle pivoted to studio
records with a proper band. The album is a top seller in the band's
vast catalog, with an impressive 18M streams on top of sales. There is
a spiritual aura around the All Hail origin story, as it was recorded
on John Darnielle's retired and broken Panasonic tape player, purchased
1989 at a California Circuit City, which revived and whirred back to
life by surprise.

also the pinnacle of a beloved lo-fi Mountain Goats era (until Songs
for PIerre Chuvin arrived in pandemic 20 years later), before John
Darnielle pivoted to studio records with a proper band. The album is a

THIS CHARMING MAN
4059251577713 |
MOUTH - GETAWAY
Mouth from Cologne
switch from the prog label Tonzonen to This Charming Man with their
fourth album "Getaway" - and nobody could be more pleased about it than
me! What a mad trip the three of them throw in here. The very first
song almost bursts the duration of a long-playing record. Meandering
nicely trippy through the musical swamp rock landscape of the 60s &
70s, Mouth scrape along all the genres you can roam with a classic rock
band - prog, rock, space, garage, jazz or krautrock - this is all
formed into a coherent, stomping mass on "Getaway". With "Once" they
have a real hit on board that can make the dance floor of any
indie/rock party shake - simply great.
Previous albums "Rhizome" (2009/2020) , "Vortex" (2017), "Floating"
(2018), "Live'71" (2018), "Past-Present-Future" (2019)) were all highly
acclaimed works and I'm sure MOUTH's well matured album "Getaway" will
also pick up the critical acclaim. And of course the 4th album is an
album whose songs are woven together by a narrative concept: A hopeless
escape without a happy ending. The album artwork comes from the artist
Rolf Maria Koller (The Apocalyptic Dream | 1972) and the master is done
by Eroc.

MOVIE MOVIE - STORYBOARDS
New York City's
MOVIE MOVIE was formed in early 2022, with ex-members of the bands TWIN
GUNS, THE ELECTRIC MESS, and THE ABOVE, featuring Andrea Sicco (lead
vocals, guitars), Frank Caira (vocals, 2nd guitar for live shows),
Derek Davidson (bass, keyboards), and Alan J. Camlet (drums and
percussion, vocals).
MOVIE MOVIE currently has a six track EP out on Ghost Highway/KOTJ
records and now their first full album is released by Topsy-Turvy
Records.
MOVIE MOVIE takes the listener on a cinematic journey on their debut
LP, "Storyboards," weaving tight narratives and filmic tales over its
ten catchy songs. They cleanly combine elements of power pop ("Born to
Win"), '70s and '80s classic and alternative rock ("Only Time Will
Tell," "The Light That Shines in Her Eyes," "Time to Say Goodnight"),
with moments of '60s
garage ("The Girl With the Wandering Eye), psychedelia ("Lone Warrior),
and pop country ("The Two Loneliest People in the World"), topped with
bright, BYRDS-like harmonies and DAVID BOWIE-like vocals, lush
soundscapes of layered guitars, organ, jangly piano, and strings.
"Storyboards" will have you returning to it again and again, like a
good movie!

MUDHONEY - EVERY GOOD BOY DESERVES FUDGE (30TH ANNIVERSA
Gatefold jacket with
custom dust sleeves and poster. By going back to basics with Every Good
Boy Deserves Fudge, Mudhoney flipped conventional wisdom. Not for the
first time - or the last - they would be vindicated. A month after
release in July 1991, the album entered the UK album chart at Number 34
(five weeks later, Nirvana's Nevermind entered at 36) and went on to
sell 75,000 copies worldwide. A more meaningful measure of success,
however, lay in it's revitalisation of the band, casting a touchstone
for the future. The record is a major chapter in Mudhoney's ongoing
story, the moral of which has to be: when in doubt, fudge it. The album
began at Music Source Studio, a large space equipped with a 24-track
mixing board - downright futuristic, compared to the 8-track setup that
birthed the band's catalytic 1988 debut, "Touch Me I'm Sick." The Music
Source session quickly turned into a false start when the results, in
guitarist Steve Turner's words, "sounded a little too fancy, too
clean." Lesson learned, the band went primitive and got to work at
Conrad Uno's 8-track setup at Egg Studio. Named after the cartons
pasted on the walls in an optimistic attempt at sound-proofing, Egg
boasted a '60s vintage 8-track Spectra Sonics recording console,
originally built for Stax in Memphis. So it was that, in the spring of
1991, Mudhoney made Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge. The resulting album
is a whirlwind of the band's influences at the time: the fierce '60s
garage rock of their Pacific Northwest predecessors The Sonics and The
Lollipop Shoppe, the gnashing post-hardcore of Drunks With Guns, the
heavy guitar moods of Neil Young, the lysergic workouts of Spacemen 3
and Hawkwind, the gloomy existentialism of Zounds, and the satirical
ferocity of '80s hardcore punk. The quartet's special alchemy meant
these fond homages never slid into pastiche. Ultimately, Every Good Boy
Deserves Fudge epitomised the best of Mudhoney: here was a band
reconnecting with it's purest instincts, and in the process reinventing
itself. This 30th anniversary edition, remastered by Bob Weston at
Chicago Mastering Service, stands as testimony to the creative surge
that drove them in this period. The album sessions yielded a clutch of
material that would subsequently appear on B-sides, compilations, and
split-singles. This edition includes all those tracks, and a slew of
previously unreleased songs, including the entire five-track Music
Source session.

MUDHONEY - FIVE DOLLAR BOB'S MOCK COOTER STEW
First Time Reissued,
Includes The Original Cover Artwork. Out of Print in any format for 30
years. Limited Color Vinyl.
Most of us likely missed MUDHONEYs Five Dollar Bobs Mock Cooter Stew
when it first cratered here on Earth in late 1993, but we can ALL learn
from our previous mistakes RIGHT NOW!!! Out of print in any physical
format for 30 years(!), here is their Reprise mini-LP for all to devour
in real-time and roll in its naked glory. Initially recorded by the
band as an offering for their fans to devour while they were between
full-length albums, the majority of Five Dollar was recorded in one
short, inspired burst on August 1, 1993, between the hours of 9:30 and
10:15 PM (with friend and Fastback Kur(d)t Bloch egging them on from
the production booth). They smashed this out in just 45 minutes.
It might be the band at their most Stooge-esque since there is no
flowery imagery; nothing to misinterpret; just in-your-face blunt
despair (in that department, Black Flag's Damaged LP comes to mind,
especially in Mudhoney's gleefully punishing highlight: No Song III).
Within two seconds of any of these songs hitting your mind (maybe even
within one second), you knew it could only be Mudhoney. You can
instantly recognize it, because they truly own it/you/the universe.

MY MORNING JACKET - MMJ LIVE VOL.3: BONNAROO 2004 (INDIE)
Indie clear vinyl

My Morning Jacket, touring behind It Still Moves, took the stage at
Bonnaroo on a scorching hot day in the summer of '04. Ominous dark
clouds rolled in early in the performance. "I'll never forget it,"
reflected Jim James "We're playing & the sky just rips open &
rain starts pouring down. People are losing their minds... Everybody is
petrified that we're going to get electrocuted, but it was such a
transcendent moment that we just didn't care." It would become one of

NATION OF LANGUAGE - STRANGE DISCIPLE
Clear Vinyl. Nation
of Language have attracted an increasing, international audience with
their danceable and impassioned takes on new wave and post-punk
traditions. Their hopeful music-marked by soaring melodies, blinking
synth lines, and frontman Ian Devaney's towering voice-is a ray of
light in an era of anxiety, cynicism, hatred, and snark. Following the
critical acclaim of their 2020 debut album, Introduction, Presence, and
it's 2021 follow-up, A Way Forward, Nation of Language return with
their third studio album, Strange Disciple. Recorded in the East
Williamsburg home studio of their producer Nick Millhiser (LCD
Soundsystem / Holy Ghost!), it is the band's first album recorded
completely to analog tape. The sonic direction of the record became
clear after the band wrote "Sole Obsession," "Spare Me the Decision,"
and "Sightseer," all groovy, bass-driven songs that deviate from the
straight-forward drive of A Way Forward. As their bass lines became
more playful and ambulatory, they also relied more on the electric
guitar, which had largely been a background element up until this
point. Strange Disciple is a spiritual, searching record. We follow a
bumpy journey of self-exploration, stumbling on moments of clarity and
wisdom, and then getting tripped up again. It's an invitation to both
celebrate and mourn, find yourself and lose yourself, reflect on one's
infatuations and perhaps even form new ones with these songs.

The surprise

Frankenstein, Laugh Track is the bands most freewheeling,
all-hands-on-deck album in years. If Frankenstein represented a
rebuilding of trust between group members after 20+ years together, the
vibrant, exploratory Laugh Track is both the product of that faith and
a new statement of intent. Reveling in the license to radically upend
its creative process, The National honed most of this material in live
performances on tour, and captured those invigorated versions in
impromptu sessions at producer Tucker Martines Portland studio. Two
nights later in Vancouver, the nearly eight-minute album closer "Smoke

bristling with spontaneity and vintage rock energy that makes a perfect

NATURAL CHILD - BE M' GUEST
Originally hailing
from Nashville, Tennessee, Natural Child are a quartet whose good and
greasy style is informed by Southern rock, vintage country-rock,
laid-back Laurel Canyon sounds, 70s-style boogie, a dash of hard rock,
and most likely a careful balance of liquor and bong hits. Be M' Guest,
their eighth studio album, has been hailed as a return to form for the
group, packing eleven stylistically unique hits into the grooves of
this forty-five minute LP. Produced by Cooper Crain of Bitchin Bajas
and featuring Oakley Munson of The Black Lips, this is unquestionably
the greatest rock and roll record one is going to hear this year.

NEU - NEU! 2 (PIC)
After the
considerable success of their self-titled debut album, Klaus Dinger and
Michael Rother set out ambitiously to record a follow-up. Virtually
everything went wrong. The first of the artistic and personal
differences that existed between them not only began to surface, but to
flourish in the face of a nearly impossible studio deadline and overly
tight budget. While the basic Neu! sound was not an issue, how to
augment it was.
Over time, this great big middle finger to the music biz has weathered
the storm very well. In fact, it now sounds as if it were recorded this
way based on aesthetics rather than anger. But at the time it merely
showed a duo that had worn each other out and had been dissed by their
record company. A fine and disturbing listen, it should be sought out
by anyone possessing Neu! discs on either end of this one. This is
essential Krautrock.

NIGHT BEATS - RAJAN (RED VINYL)
As Night Beats,
Texas-born, LA-based artist Danny Lee Blackwell creates music like one
might assemble a puzzle. The Western psychedelic auteur builds his work
from one moment, an initial spark, that must fit a certain criteria: it
must give him goosebumps. If that sensation arrives, Blackwell will
pursue the idea relentlessly until he has a new song; if not, he moves
onto the next moment, constantly looking for the perfect molecule of a
song. On his new Night Beats album, Rajan, the songwriter is at his
strongest, creating works that shine with captivating melodies and
hypnotic rhythms, but are underscored by subtle choices of
craftsmanship that can only be achieved after countless hours in the
studio. Blackwell creates a work that lands somewhere between Spaghetti
Western film score and psych-pop opus, a career-defining album that
reveals much about Danny Lee Blackwells artistic philosophy while
keeping that ever crucial air of mystery intact.

NIRVANA - MADRID 1992
EXTRAORDINARY
BROADCAST RECORDING MADE IN THE WAKE OF NEVERMIND'S ENORMOUS SUCCESS
Upon it's release in September 1991, DGC Records was hoping to sell
250,000 copies of Nevermind, the same they had achieved with Sonic
Youth's Goo. However, the first single Smells Like Teen Spirit quickly
gained momentum. As they toured Europe during late 1991, the band found
that its shows were dangerously oversold, and that Teen Spirit was
almost omnipresent on radio and music television. By Christmas 1991,
the album was selling 400,000 copies a week in the US. In January 1992,
it displaced Michael Jackson's Dangerous at number one on the Billboard
album charts, and topped the charts in numerous other countries. The
month Nevermind reached number one, Billboard proclaimed, "Nirvana is
that rare band that has everything: critical acclaim, industry respect,
pop radio appeal, and a rock-solid college/alternative base." The album
eventually sold over seven million copies in the US, and over 30
million worldwide. Citing exhaustion, Nirvana decided not to undertake
another American tour in support of Nevermind, instead opting to make
only a handful of performances later that year. Some of these dates
took place in Europe, and among the finest of these was the bands show
at Madrids Sports Palace on 3rd July 92. The show was recorded for live
broadcast across Spain and is now available in its entirety on this
extraordinary vinyl edition!

PALE SAINTS - IN RIBBONS (30TH ANNIVERSARY)
The 1990 debut album
from Pale Saints, The Comforts of Madness, is an outstanding record
that owed as much to post-punk and L.A.s Paisley Underground scene than
it did to shoegaze. The Sunday Times called it "an unintended indie
manifesto: music that is at once wayward and concise, dissonant and
beautiful." Shortly after its release and in need of a second live
guitarist, Lush founding member Meriel Barham joined the Leeds trio of
Ian Masters, Graeme Naysmith and Chris Cooper, bringing a new dynamic
to the band. Having previously worked well with producer Hugh Jones
(Echo & The Bunnyman, Modern English, The Sound), he did a
brilliant job recording their second album, In Ribbons (1992), despite
some studio tensions. Brooklyn Vegan said in a recent celebration of
the album that it was the "push and pull between Masters outsider
tendencies and (the rests) commercial interests that makes In Ribbons
so good. If some of the wild, ragged edges of Comforts of Madness have
been smoothed off, the album makes up for it with scope and beauty. And
theres still no shortage of weird."
Missing its original release date last year due to Covid delays and a
production plant in meltdown, In Ribbons is finally getting the 30th
Anniversary celebration it deserves with a special double LP / CD
release - the first disc being the UK version of the album, the second
a bonus disc of never before heard demos (including their first attempt
at Slapp Happys Blue Flower and Ians 4 track recording of Kinky Love)
and two brass band versions by The Tintwistle Band. Coming in a
beautiful gatefold sleeve, the limited double LP edition is being
pressed on unpigmented vinyl by The Vinyl Factory in West London.

Clear Orange w/
12x12 insert and download card in jacket. With their latest album, Eye
On The Bat, Palehound have unleashed a sonic tour de force that cements
their status as one of the most exciting and forward-thinking artists
in indie rock. Recorded with Sam Owens (Big Thief, Cass McCombs) at
Flying Cloud Recordings in the Catskill Mountains, the album is a
breathtaking showcase of artistic growth and evolution, with primary
songwriter El Kempner (as well as multi-instrumentalist Larz Brogan)
delivering a stunning batch of new songs that brim with energy,
vulnerability, and raw emotion. From the explosive guitar riffs to the
thunderous drumming and Kempner's signature vocals, Eye On The Bat is
the most thrilling and exhilarating album Palehound has made to date.
The album's sharp and introspective lyrics explore themes of
self-discovery, anxiety, and empowerment, adding a layer of depth and
nuance to the album's uncompromising vision.In addition to Kempner's
recent work with Bachelor (a collaborative project with Jay Som's
Melina Duterte), Palehound has earned widespread critical acclaim in
outlets such as The New York Times, Pitchfork, and NPR, which praised
their unique sound and fearless artistic direction. Palehound's long
and storied touring history has seen them play shows around the world
alongside some of the biggest names in indie rock, including Big Thief,
Sylvan Esso, Lucy Dacus, PUP and more. And it's not just other artists
who have been inspired by their music - Kempner's passionate and
introspective songwriting has struck a chord with fans around the
world, cementing Palehound's status as a deeply admired and widely
influential artist.

PANDA BEAR - TOMBOY
Recorded at his
studio in Lisbon, Tomboy sees Animal Collective member Panda Bear aka
Noah Lennox stepping away from the sample-based parameters of his
previous record, Person Pitch, and incorporating more guitar and
synthesizer. The record, massive in its span of emotion, genre, and
sound, is the welcome return of one of the most prolific and consistent
audio pioneers in recent memory.

PARTICLES, THE - 1980S BUBBLEGUM
"(I have) two
fantastic singles by The Particles...they are two of my most prized
vinyl possessions" - Carrie Brownstein (Sleater Kinney) on NPR. The
Particles formed at the height of the punk movement in Sydney,
Australia in 1977, and spent their early years hanging out with punk
legends The Saints. But by their first recordings in 1979 they were
something else entirely - pioneers of infectiously melodic, playfully
subversive indie pop. They deserve to be held up alongside
contemporaries such as Orange Juice or Television Personalities, and
1980s Bubblegum makes a strong case for this with the first overview of
their sporadic recording career. Guitarist Peter Williams and vocalist
Astrid Spielman were the core of the group, surviving numerous lineups
until the band dissolved in the mid 80s. Other bandmates include
members of Chapter DIY heroes The Cannanes and fondly-remembered indie
pop band The Lighthouse Keepers. The Particles only released three
seven inch EPs and a handful of compilation tracks, but their scant
recorded work is laden with inventive, irresistible pop hits. After
self-releasing two EPs Colour In (1980) and Advanced Colouring (1981),
their final EP I Luv Trumpet (1983) was the second ever release on
iconic Sydney label Waterfront Records. This makes The Particles
unlikely labelmates with the likes of Nirvana, L7 and Henry Rollins,
who all went on to release records via Waterfront in Australia in the
90s. On 1980s Bubblegum, Chapter Music presents every known recording
by the Particles, including digital bonus tracks from a 1983 live radio
session on Sydney station Triple J. The LP features extensive liner
notes based on interviews with bandmembers. Astrid Spielman tragically
passed away from a brain haemorrhage in 2015, but the sheer joyful
magic of her and Peter's music lives on with 1980s Bubblegum.

PERRY, BRENDAN - EYE OF THE HUNTER / LIVE AT THE ICA (DELUXE)
Some fifteen years
after Dead Can Dances self-titled debut, Brendan Perry first stepped
out on his own in 1999 with the wondrous eight track album, Eye of the
Hunter.
Having mutually disbanded Dead Can Dance so he and Lisa Gerrard could
focus on their own material (a hiatus that would last seven years
between live shows and sixteen between albums), Brendans debut built on
his renown as a solo performer, having often played just he and
an acoustic guitar during his bands otherworldly live shows. Indeed,
Dead Can Dances first official live album, 1994s Toward The Within,
captures just this with three Brendan solo tracks helping to set the
scene for what came next.
Backed by the band of Liam Bradley (drums), Glen Garrett (bass guitar)
and Martin Quinn (pedal steel), Brendan performs the guitar, a
12-string guitar, mandolin and keys to achieve a rich, gothic sound
while the albums incredible production elevates his vocals to Scott
Walker and Tim Buckley levels of delivery; two clear influences, the
latters I Must Have Been Blind Here is thoughtfully covered here.
A record that has been out of print on vinyl since its release in 1999,
people have been asking for it to be repressed for long enough. Having
been remastered at Abbey Road, fans will be delighted to hear that not
only is Eye of the Hunter finally being reissued but that its also
being ex- panded to include Live at the I.C.A.. A true collectible,
this extra album has previously only been available on a rare as hens
teeth promotional cassette, recorded during the 4AD labels infamous 13
Year Itch residency at the storied London venue in 1993. Chris Biggs
fantastic art remains front and centre, upgraded to a gatefold sleeve
for the LP with the transparent teal coloured vinyl matching the albums
palette.

PHAIR, LIZ - EXILE IN GUYVILLE (30TH ANNIVERSARY)
This year marks the
30th anniversary of Liz Phairs beloved debut record, Exile In Guyville,
which was first released on June 22, 1993 via Matador. On October 20th,
Matador Records will reissue the album on limited edition purple vinyl.
An 18-track double album loosely framed as a song- by-song reply to The
Rolling Stones Exile on Main St., Exile In Guyville was dubbed a
classic upon arrival. The albums profile has only risen in the ensuing
years. It is now regarded as an iconic work and a feminist landmark,
recently cracking the top ten of Pitchforks "Best 150 Albums of the
1990s" (#4) and the top 100 of Rolling Stones "Best 500 Albums of All
Time" (#56).
Liz Phair has continued to defy expectations and break barriers. She
has released five albums, sold over five million records, composed
music for television, and received two Grammy nominations. In 2019, she
published a memoir titled Horror Stories. On her most recent
full-length, Soberish (2021), Phair reunited with Exile in Guyville
producer Brad Wood.
Today, three decades after the release of her debut, Phairs influence
in contemporary music - and particularly over female voices - resonates
more strongly than ever.

POOL KIDS - POOL KIDS (GREEN GALAXY)
Limited repressing
of their 2019 album, now on "galaxy green" vinyl. Pool Kids are energy.
Raw, sporadic, and indisputably authentic, the four piece's latest
self-titled album fuses math-rock familiarities with a wave of indie
rock angst. Recorded in Seattle by Mike Davis, 'Pool Kids' is the first
studio album to include the full band. The record explores regeneration
from trauma, heartbreak, and culture. Vocalist Christine Goodwyne
reaches into the depths of shared existence, unifying a genre-less
fanbase and shattering the wall between performer and listener.

PRETTY FLOWERS - A COMPANY SLEEVE (BLUE)
'A Company Sleeve'
is the sophomore album from Los Angeles-based indie rock band The
Pretty Flowers. The Big Takeover said of The Pretty Flowers, "These Los
Angeles hard power-poppers... play '90s style indie-rock that harkens
back to later Replacements, early Weezer, a little Sloan, and quite a
bit of Wilco. They have the chops to write great songs." The album
features 12 tracks that showcase the band's loud guitar indie and
college rock influences, including Guided By Voices, Echo & the
Bunnymen, Superchunk, and Teenage Fanclub. The album was produced by
the band's own Jake Gideon, engineered by Adam Lasus (Lily's, Yo La
Tengo, Madder Rose, and Helium) at Studio Red and mastered by Matthew
Barnhart (Superchunk, Bob Mould, METZ). Punk Rock Theory praised "Baby
Food", the album's first single, calling it "a bright and shiny
power-pop meets college rock gem that should have fans of The
Replacements and Superchunk giddy with anticipation for The Pretty
Flowers upcoming full-length." American Pancake hailed "Baby Food" as
"...a gleefully hyper piece of punchy rock with touchstones of 90's
College Radio jangle pop, late 70's power pop and 80's indie / folk
rock." To ensure a high-fidelity listening experience, the lacquers for
A Company Sleeve were cut by Chicago Mastering Service in Chicago,
Illinois and the vinyl was pressed by the amazing team at Cascade
Record Pressing in Portland, Oregon. First pressing of 500 comes on
translucent blue (250) and opaque blue (250). Includes 11x17 folded
poster of the artwork used for the album's cover.

PRETTY GIRLS MAKE GRAVES - THE NEW ROMANCE (WHITE VINYL)
Pretty Girls Make
Graves formed in Seattle in 2001, fused together out of the still
glowing embers of nearly a dozen important groups. Andrea Zollo and
Derek Fudesco had played together in Death Wish Kids and Area 51 along
with Dann Gallucci, with whom Derek formed Murder City Devils. Shortly
before the Murder City Devils called it quits, he and Andrea started
Pretty Girls Make Graves with J. Clark (who was in Kill Sadie and
Sharks Keep Moving) and Nick Dewitt and Nathan Thelen (both in Bee Hive
Vaults). Brilliantly produced by Phil Ek (Modest Mouse, Built To Spill,
Les Savy Fav), The New Romance magnifies Pretty Girls Make Graves
songcraft and technical prowess while letting some air into their songs
and keeping things in crisp focus. Every song on The New Romance is an
anthem, yet without traditional verses and choruses. Tension builds and
shifts without conventional release, as moments of glassy beauty and
rousing aggression trade sides.

PROTOMARTYR - FORMAL GROWTH IN THE DESERT
Since their 2012
debut, Protomartyr have mastered the art of evoking place: the grinding
Midwest humility of their hometown, as well as the x-rayed elucidation
of America that comes with their vantage. The groups sixth album was
recorded at Sonic Ranch in Tornillo, TX with producer Jake Aron. "The
desert is more of a metaphor or symbol," singer Joe Casey says, "of
emotional deserts, or a place or time that seems to lack life." The
"growth" came from a period of colossal transition for Casey, including
the death of his mother. But life does go on, and Casey describes the
great theme of Formal Growth In The Desert as an embrace and
acknowledgment of that fact: a 12-song testament to "getting on with
life," even when it feels impossibly hard.

PURR - WHO IS AFRAID OF BLUE?
An indie pop duo
whose music has a cool retro vibe buoyed by smooth melodies, a
naturalistic sound, and warm harmonies, Purr is a collaboration between
songwriters, musicians, and longtime friends Eliza Barry Callahan and
Jack Staffen. The two previously worked together as Jack + Eliza, but
while that project emphasized spare and stripped-down accompaniment,
Purr's recordings feature a fuller sound with a larger palette of
instrumental flavors that often references '60s pop. Purr introduced
themselves to the world with a 2018 single, "Bad Advice" b/w "Painted
Memory," that showed off their talents as both writers and vocalists,
and they further refined their style on their first full-length album,
2020's Like New and continue that on forthcoming album 'Who Is Afraid
Of Blue?'
To make it, the duo teamed up with their close friend, producer
Jonathan Rado (Weyes Blood, Father John Misty, The Killers), whom they
worked with on 'Like New.' They went to his NorthHollywood studio, a
small building behind his home. This was during Omicron, so they kept
recording small, just the three of them in a room for most of the time.
Programmed drums on an 808, that kind of thing. While they recorded,
they screened movies. Ranging from Barbara Loden's Wanda, to Paul
Thomas Anderson's Magnolia, to Dr. Strange and The Avengers. It all
provided texture to the songs. Like making a score. "It's a really
hermetic record," says Staffen, "which ended up feeling really
special." Sonically, 'Who is Afraid of Blue?' isn't beholden by genre.
It is an omnivorous record-you can hear glimmers of Aimee Mann,
Radiohead, the Cocteau Twins which is fitting because 'Blue' is in some
ways a record of their process of falling in love with music all over
again. 'Who is Afraid of Blue?' also exists lightly in conversation
with a short novel Callahan wrote (forthcoming via Catapult, 2024), an
auto-fiction document of a woman losing her hearing. And all of it
comes back to those Newman works: Purr makes music that functions like
those large-scale paintings so very saturated with color. 'Blue' is a
vast record, with lyrics that bend towards abstraction. But make no
mistake: in that abstraction there is intense clarity. Blue is blue: a
color, a feeling, a signifier, a way of looking at the world.

QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE - IN TIMES NEW ROMAN... (BLACK)
In Times New
Roman..., the 8th studio album from Queens of the Stone Age is raw,
brutal & rough around the edges but with a refinement that reveals
itself further with each successive listen - and QOTSA founder Joshua
Hommes lyrics are as witty and withering than ever. The results are
instantly identifiable ; QOTSA's sonic signature, expanded and
embellished with new and unprecedented twists in virtually every song,
a live in-a-room recording that showcases a band at the height of their
creative powers. In Times New Roman... is a party for the obscene and
the clean, the outcasts and the weirdos, and anyone and everyone in
between. One of the most important bands in recent rock history is B A
C K but its no exaggeration to call this album a devastating rebirth.
It is available on four limited color vinyl variants: Metallic Silver,
Red, Clear Blue, Green, as well as black vinyl and CD.

RADIO BIRDMAN - RADIOS APPEAR (TRAFALGAR VERSION)
LIMITED REPRESSING
OF 350 COPIES FOR NORTH AMERICA!
Radio's Appear was Radio Birdman's first full length album. Recorded
piecemeal over 1976 and early 1977, on weekends and nights when their
home studio (Trafalgar) had no paying customers, it was finally
released on the Trafalgar label, created specifically to release their
records. In addition to mail order, the album was literally distributed
by hand and out of the back of cars. The band thus wrote the Australian
handbook on DIY independent music. It was hailed as a breakthrough
album in Australian music, a turning point after the scene's early and
mid-seventies stagnation. Radio's Appear was given a 5 star review in
Rolling Stone, and the album gave the band a needed boost to depart
Sydney as a national touring entity, while still maintaining their
renegade status.
140 gram standard black vinyl; standard jacket with printed inner
sleeve; comes with a download card; Re-mastered from original tapes.
For fans of MC5, The Stooges, & The Saints. No export to AUSTRALIA
or HOLLAND.

ROONEY - ROONEY (GOLD VINYL)
Rooney (named after
the principal in Ferris Buellers Day Off) was formed in high school by
singer-songwriter Robert Schwartzman, whose list of celebrity
connections is long: brother to actor Jason Schwartzman, cousin to
actor Nic Cage and director Sofia Coppola, and nephew of Francis Ford
Coppola. But it wasnt just celebrity that turbocharged Rooneys rise;
songs like "Blueside," "Im Shakin," and "Im a Terrible Person" blend
power pop with British Invasion and punk influences to create a sort of
rock and roll classicism in the best sense of the word. Thats why none
other than Johnny Ramone selected them for the Ramones tribute album
Were a Happy Family, and why the band were tabbed to tour with such
cult faves as Weezer, The Strokes, and The Donnas (they also appeared
as themselves in the first season of The O.C.). Thats also why their
2003 self-titled debut (produced by Jimmy Iovine among others) sold a
cool half million copies.but somehow its never been out on LP. Our Real
Gone release comes in metallic gold vinyl housed inside a jacket with
printed inner sleeve. Another one of those early aughts records thats
way, way overdue for wax.

RURAL ALBERTA ADVANTAGE - HOMETOWNS (GOLD VINYL)
The Rural Alberta
Advantage was born out of singer/songwriter Nils Edenloff's exodus from
the province that inspired the band's name and many of the songs from
their enthralling debut album, Hometowns. Edenloff grappled with
homesickness after his move from Edmonton, Alberta to Toronto, Ontario
in 2003. To cope with his loneliness and isolation in the 'big city',
the shy songwriter penned a series of odes to his former home,
celebrating the country's wild rose, the purple skies and the
"Deathbridge in Lethbridge."

SHAMIR - HOMO ANXIETATEM (PURPLE VINYL)
Shamir's art is a
synthesis of the full spectrum of human emotion; sensual, furious,
yearning, joyful and yet tethered together by a very distinct style
(similarly to the greats such as Miss Nina Simone, Prince, and Taylor
Swift). Shamirs music is based almost entirely in a hyper-specific,
fully autonomous, embodied expression of personhood.
On his forthcoming album, Homo Anxietatem, Shamir takes the Latin
translation of the title, "anxious man", and transmutes his anxiety to
pop songs. The creation process serves as a balm or elixir, converting
internal anxieties to an 11-track sonic playground.

SIGUR ROS - ATTA (INDIE)
Sigur Ros' first new
studio album in ten years, ATTA, is their most intimate and emotionally
direct record to date.
Few bands cut through the noise and distractions of the world to bring
you a pure elemental truth or feeling like Sigur Ros. As you hear on
ATTA, theres a new compulsion and drive to the band that comes with the
new formation of the line up. Multi-instrumentalist Kjartan Sveinsson
is back in the fold - having left the band in 2012 - to join frontman
Jonsi and bassist Georg Holm.
Recorded across multiple continents - in the bands Sundlaugin studio in
Iceland, the legendary Abbey Road in the UK and a number of studios in
the US - ATTA leans heavily towards the orchestral, and touches on
everything that has made Sigur Ros one of the most ambitious and
acclaimed bands of recent times, with close to ten million albums sold,
whilst signposting an exciting and expansive possibility for their
future. ATTA prominently features the London Contemporary Orchestra
conducted by Robert Ames, alongside brass performed by longtime
Icelandic collaborators Brassgat I bala.It is mixed and co-produced by
another frequent collaborator Paul Corley, alongside the band.

SISTERS - LEECHEATER
As the dust settled
on prolific runs with influential projects, Jason Blackmore (Molly
McGuire) and Mario Quintero (Spotlights) found themselves entering the
pandemic era with an abundance of creative fuel left in the tank.
United under a new moniker, Sisters, Blackmore and Quintero have joined
forces to bring the best elements of their respective previous projects
together to create something new and menacing. The band's debut LP,
Leecheater, is an amalgamation of brooding nuances, driving rhythms,
and distorted guitar riffs that distinctly showcase the stylistic
fingerprints of both Blackmore and Quintero. Self-described as
sonically resembling an old Minor Threat album that was recorded
through a Queens of the Stone Age machine, Leecheater is a gripping and
immersive listening experience that showcases the band's ability to
create massive sonic landscapes that press the limits of modern rock.

SLOWDIVE - EVERYTHING IS ALIVE
everything is alive,
Slowdives 5th record, is exactly what the title suggests: an
exploration into the shimmering nature of life and the universal touch
points within it. While there are parts of this record that could sit
neatly next to the atmospheric quality of 1995s Pygmalion; everything
is alive also manages to break down the boundaries of whats come before
it. Spanning psychedelic soundscapes, pulsating 80s electronic elements
and John Cale inspired journeys, the album lands immediately as
something made for the future; which figures, as their fanbase has
grown younger & younger as time has gone on. For a genre that is
often thought of as divisive, and often warrants introspection, here
Slowdive show their craft as the masters of it by pushing it outwards,
beyond the singular; the end result being a record which feels as
emotional and cathartic as it is hopeful.

SMITH, PATTI - CBGB'S 1979 VOL.2
This recording, made
in 1979, after the release of the Todd Rundgren produced "Wave" album,
is a classic CBGB performance long after Patti Smith's career had
exploded to the point where she was filling 5,000 auditoriums. Because
it was a radio broadcast for the King Biscuit Flower Hour, and because
they had returned to their punk roots at CBGB, Patti and the band play
a very loose set filled with covers like John Lennon's 'Cold Turkey',
the Yardbird's 'For Your Love' and Bob Dylan classic, 'All Along The
Watchtower'. This two-installment set now features this quite
extraordinary gig in its entirety for the first time on vinyl.

SMITHS, THE - STRANGEWAYS, HERE WE COME
With producer
Stephen Street, the Smiths created a subtly shaded and skilled album,
one boasting a fuller production than before. Morrissey and Marr
laboured hard over the songs, working to expand the bands sound within
their boundaries. In doing so they created the classic tracks "I
Started Something I Couldn't Finish," "Girlfriend in a Coma," "Stop Me
if You Think Youve Heard This One Before," and "I Won't Share You".
This, the highest charting of all their albums, easily offers a summary
of the bands considerable strengths, and went on to be certified Gold
in both the UK and US.

SMITHS, THE - THE QUEEN IS DEAD
Digitally remastered
edition of this 1986 album from the legendary British quartet. The
Queen Is Dead is The Smiths' great leap forward, taking the band to new
musical and lyrical heights. Opening with the storming track, the album
is harder rocking record than anything the band had attempted before.
Johnny Marr has created here a wide range of guitar styles that provide
a musical bed for Morrissey's best set of lyrics. From which is crafted
some of their finest, most affective songs, particularly "The Boy with
the Thorn in His Side" and the epic "There Is a Light That Never Goes
Out," two masterpieces that provide the foundation for a remarkable
album.

Digitally
re-mastered edition of the 1984 debut album from the legendary British
quartet. Arriving in an era dominated by Synthpop and gloomy Post-Punk,
the Smith's eponymous debut was the beginning of a new era. Johnny
Marr's inventive songwriting and ringing guitars were catchy and
melodic and were made all the more original by Morrissey's vocal style
and lyrics. Although The Smiths continued to improve over the course of
their career, the songs here are vital and alive, making sure that
their debut remains startling and exciting to this day.

SON LUX - ALTERNATE FORMS (WHITE VINYL)
Joyful Noise
Recordings announce Alternate Forms, a track-by-track reworking of
Academy Award and BAFTA nominees Son Lux's critically acclaimed
breakthrough 2013 album Lanterns.The opening track on Alternate Forms,
Kishi Bashi's "Alternate World (Alternate Life)", sets the tone for the
entire album. Kishi Bashi has radically reimagined the song in his own
voice, creating a wholly new mood and arrangement, laced with his
signature pop magic. Son Lux and Kishi Bashi were label-mates at Joyful
Noise Recordings at the time of Lanterns' release. Both artists share
an uncommon ability to create sweeping symphonic landscapes in the
confined space of a 4-minute pop song - as you'll hear on "Alternate
World (Alternate Life)".

STEVENS, SUFJAN - JAVELIN
Over the course of
his career, Sufjan Stevens has blurred distinctions between the major
and the minor, between the details that color our existence and the big
events that frame our lives. He has turned historical footnotes of
States into kaleidoscopic pop, and rendered the immeasurable grief of
loss with intimacy and grace.kkHis new album Javelin - Sufjan's first
solo album of songs since 2020's The Ascension and his first in full
solo singer-songwriter mode since 2015's Carrie & Lowell - bridges
all these approaches. Sufjan uses the quietness of a solitary
confession to ask universal questions in songs we can share communally.
Accompanying the CD and LP formats of the album is a 48-page book of
art and essays. With a series of meticulous collages, cut-up catalog
fantasies, puff-paint word clouds, and iterative color fields, Sufjan
builds order from seeming chaos and vice versa. And toward the middle
of it all are 10 short essays by Sufjan, another window into the
process that informed Javelin.

STRFKR - MIRACLE MILE (10 YR ANNIVERSARY)
Orange and Pink
Spokes w/ Red Splatter Vinyl w/ download card in gatefold jacket.
Includes a bonus flexi 7" of a previously unreleased track. Originally
released on February 19, 2013, STRFKR's third full-length album,
Miracle Mile, propelled the Portland, OR dance-pop band into new sonic
territory with it's infectious energy and innovative blend of
electronic and rock elements. Recorded collaboratively in early 2012 in
Astoria, Oregon, Miracle Mile marked a defining moment for the band, as
primary songwriter Josh Hodges invited the other members to contribute
to the creative process. The resulting tracks, including standouts like
"While I'm Alive, " "Atlantis, " and "Golden Light, " showcased the
band's dynamic range and elevated their status as one of the most
exciting and innovative indie rock bands of the early 2010s. 10 years
later, Miracle Mile remains a fan favorite and a standout in STRFKR's
acclaimed discography. The album is being re-released on a new vinyl
color and includes a bonus flexi with the previously unreleased b-side
"Gay Days, " a testament to the enduring impact of this seminal work.

SURVIVAL GUIDE - DEATHDREAMS
'deathdreams' is the
fourth full-length album by Survival Guide, which is the solo project
of Emily Whitehurst, who is known the world over as "Agent M" from her
time spent fronting the band Tsunami Bomb, who made Rolling Stone's
list of the "50 Greatest Pop-Punk Albums". Dubbed "passion behind an
electronic soul" by New Noise Magazine, Survival Guide's danceable
tunes evoke a sonic birthday cake: alternating layers of Depeche Mode,
Metric, Peter Gabriel, and Grimes, with vibrant melodies and vocals the
icing on top. 'deathdreams' includes the singles "Sour Sorrow", "Pie",
"Blood Perfume", and "Lady Neptune". The record was produced by Bob
Hoag (Dear and the Headlights, The Ataris, The Format) and mastered by
Jason Livermore (Descendents, Propagandhi, NOFX, Hot Water Music) at
The Blasting Room. To ensure a high-fidelity listening experience, the
lacquers for deathdreams were cut by Wes Garland at Nashville Record
Productions in Nashville, Tennessee and the vinyl was hand-pressed by
the incredible team at Burlington Record Plant in Burlington, Vermont.
First pressing of 500 colored vinyl copies. Includes digital album
download.

SWANS - THE BEGGAR
The Beggar was
written and produced by Michael Gira and features contributions from
recent and former Swans, members of Angels of Light, as well as Guest
Swan Ben Frost. "After numerous pandemic-induced cancellations of tours
for the previous Swans album leaving meaning, and an apparent
bottomless pit of waiting, waiting, waiting, and the strange
disorientation that came with this sudden but interminable forced
isolation I decided it was time to write songs for a new Swans album
and forget about everything else. They came relatively easily, always
informed by the suspicion that these could be my last. When I finally
was able to travel, songs in hand, to Berlin to work with my friends
recording this record, the feeling was akin to the moment in The Wizard
of Oz when the film changes from Black and White to Color. Now I'm
feeling quite optimistic. My favourite color is pink. I hope you enjoy
the album." - Michael Gira

TAKH - TAKH (RED)
The fruitful
collaboration between The Black Heart Rebellion and Echo Beatty's
Annelies Van Dinter on the People album was the beginning of a new
musical story. After the end of TBHR Alexander, Annelies, Emeriek and
Pieter went deeper in their quest to write music reflecting the true
emotions of the musicians. After about one year of free improvisation,
TAKH created something truly unique.
Their album consists of 5 tracks with textures ranging from deep bass
drones to vocal harmonies. By using an extensive set of instruments
such as an Indian harmonium, Irish buzuki and native percussion, they
succeeded in creating their own musical world.

TEENAGE FANCLUB - NOTHING LASTS FOREVER (INDIE)
Single LP on silver
& black color vinyl.
"Foreign Land" is the opening track on Teenage Fanclub's 2023 studio
album, Nothing Lasts Forever. That track-and the rest of this
beautifully rich and melodic album-is the sound of a season's end, of
the last warm days of the year while nights begin to draw in and
thoughts become reflective and more than a little melancholy. While the
vocals and the finishing touches on Nothing Lasts Forever were recorded
at Raymond McGinley's place in Glasgow, the music was recorded in an
intense 10-day period in the bucolic Welsh countryside at Rockfield
Studios, near Monmouth, in August 2022. You can hear the effect of that
environment on the record-it's full of soft breeze, wide skies, beauty,
and space.

TELESCOPES, THE - TASTE
Midlands
experimental group the Telescopes were not your average 80s band.
Instead of opting for formulaic guitar jangles, the group mashed up
psychedelia, space rock, noise rock and indie, with a touch of chamber
music here and there. Debut album Taste is considered their
masterpiece, and rightly so, the unique result stemming from frontman
Stephen Lawries creative vision. The triple-guitar onslaught tips
things over the edge in places, yet there are also cool moments of
respite. An absolute masterpiece of the whole shoegaze era, and one of
the most influential LPs in 90s alternative rock. Dive in, soak up and
be amazed.

THIS IS THE KIT - CAREFUL OF YOUR KEEPERS
Singer-songwriter
and composer, Kate Stables returns with a wondrous new This Is The Kit
album, Careful of Your Keepers, that chronicles a world of mistakes and
mishaps, cruel circumstances, and universe-driven surprises. It's a
record that embraces the concept of outrospection - the idea that you
get to know oneself by developing relationships and empathic thinking
with others - and brings the Paris-based, UK born bandleader's
signature ability to move swiftly between cryptic poetry to honest
inquisition to the fore.
Guiding the ship through changing seas is producer Gruff Rhys (Super
Furry Animals), who deftly enhances the innate shared language that
Stables has with her band, capturing beautiful instrumental
performances while leaving the space required for her robust, silken
voice to lead. The music here is daring and soft, cutting and warm, a
wild feat of complexity and combined dispositions. Surviving change is
a constant throughout this record and This is the Kit takes us to the
front lines in "More Change," where we celebrate the losing battle of
fighting change with barbed dancing lyrics that whisk us from the
mundane to the massive as a steady beat and delicate guitars wind in
and out, down and around Stables words:"light bulb / life changing /
found a friend...claw sanity back again." The sonic brilliance always
comes back to bite and the cascading melodies of "Stuck In A Room"
plant the listener in the most familiar of recent quandaries, wanting
to leave but being unable to. There are so many versions of "leaving"
one might be attracted to in this disappointing modern age, and Stables
works through them all. Conflict hits hard and with surprise but have
the right people around you and you can escape by the skin of your
teeth.
"At the top of her game." - Under the Radar
"Clever lyrics, clashing instrumentals and unique vocal patterns create
a dizzying and heady album that feels as refreshing as it does
personal." - The Line of Best Fit

THRICE - THE ARTIST IN THE AMBULANCE - REVISITED
Indie clear vinyl.
The question has to be asked: Why would Thrice re-record a 20 year old
album, let alone one that is widely beloved and arguably their most
well-known. Here's what the members of Thrice had to say in regards to
The Artist In The Ambulance - Revisited. The core of the answer is that
it simply sounded fun and we were curious. What would it sound like to
play these old songs after 20 years of playing and singing under our
belts? What would it sound like to strip things back a bit, to use more
dynamic tones, to let things breathe a bit, etc. At the end of the day,
what we wanted the record to sound like for fans is that somehow one of
their old favorite records got a new lease on life, but that it hadn't
lost it's soul or turned into something else. We hope you enjoy
revisiting The Artist In the Ambulance.

TOMBSTONES IN THEIR EYES - SEA OF SORROW
Transparent sea blue
vinyl.
"Tombstones in Their Eyes create music laced with celestial grandeur
and a fuzzed-out psychedelic majesty that looks out in the universe
just as much as is looks inward toward the soul," noted long-running
music journal The Big Takeover. The six-piece band presents a somewhat
understated powerhouse of sonic emotion that has been labeled shoegaze
and psyche, but at this point the band, led by songwriter/frontman John
Treanor, has established their own sound that needn't be pigeonholed.
Sea of Sorrow is the first full-length LP/CD to be released by Kitten
Robot Records. The band has been working with KR producer Paul Roessler
throughout their career, and this new L.P. feels like a homecoming of
sorts in the band's run of releases dating back to 2015. Ghettoblaster
said their previous EP, A Higher Place, was "bursting with imposing
tracks throughout it. Throughout the release, there are innumerable
amounts of psychedelic swirls, but it's probably the bold harmonies
from song to song that stand out the most. These are things that
literally can't be ignored, considering how powerful they make
themselves within the mix."

TV ON THE RADIO - RETURN TO COOKIE MOUNTAIN (ORANGE VINYL)
Evoking Fear of
Music (Talking Heads), Station to Station (David Bowie), and Sign 'O"
the Times (Prince), the resulting disc might be the most oddly
beautiful, psychedelic, and ambitious of the year. Consider your mind
blown. k- (4.5/5 stars) Rolling Stone, 2006 This was the album that
established once and for all that TV on the Radio were more than just a
great idea for a band; they were a great band, period - Stereogum, 2016
TV On The Radio's story is one of synchronicity, of serendipity, of
epiphany. TVOTR began with Tunde Adebimpe (vocals) and David Sitek
(multi-instrumentalist and production kingpin) being roommates,
drinking way too much coffee, making art: comics, movies, paintings.
They started trading tapes of each other's four track recordings and
thought it'd be fun to try to make "a real record" out of all that
stuff. Touch And Go released TV On The Radios stunning EP "Young Liars"
in July 2003, and it immediately marked them out as one of the most
musically innovative bands to have emerged in years.kkTheir debut
full-length "Desperate Youth, Bloodthirsty Babes" set 2004 off to a
dramatically positive start. With new member Kyp Malone sharing
songwriting, guitar and vocal duties, TVOTR was quickly on the path to
the being one of the most talked-about new groups in America. After
touring as a trio, Jaleel Bunton (drums) and Gerard Smith (bass) joined
the band to create the official TVOTR line up.kkThe band's second
studio album, Return to Cookie Mountain, leaked in early 2006 and
garnered pre-release praise from such outlets as Pitchfork before its
official release in July. Return to Cookie Mountain is filled with
guest appearances from David Bowie, Celebration, Antibalas, Blonde
Redhead, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Nick Zinner.

band hailing from the city of Angels. Although you may expect heavy

UNREST - IMPERIAL F.F.R.R.
Imperial f.f.r.r.
was Unrest's breakthrough album in 1992. It has withstood the test of
time and is now considered an indie-rock classic and one of the best
albums of the 1990s. Formed in 1984, at Wakefield High School in
Arlington, Virginia, the band started releasing homemade cassettes on
their own Teenbeat label. Imperial f.f.r.r. is their sixth album and
marked the arrival of original Velocity Girl vocalist Bridget Cross
joining drummer Phil Krauth and singer/guitarist Mark Robinson. It was
recorded by Wharton Tiers (Sonic Youth) at his home studio in
Manhattan. After the release of Imperial f.f.r.r., the band released
singles on Sub Pop and K and soon thereafter signed to legendary U.K.
indie 4AD, releasing their final studio album Perfect Teeth in 1993.
This limited edition features the original design and layout of the
very first pressing from 1992. All the details have been recreated
including the lyric sheet, the blue box around the amplifier on the
front, the label art, and even the Ajax and No.6 Records logos. The
original didn't have a barcode, so we've created a spiffy new removable
OBI card for that featuring a photograph by Mike Galinsky (The Decline
of Mall Civilization) of the band playing at New York's Spiral club in
1991.

USED, THE - TOXIC POSITIVITY (BLACK/PINK)
Import black/pink
swirl version.
Described as a "day-in-the-life journey of a depressed, anxiety-ridden
person" by vocalist Bert McCracken, the tell-all record shares the
highs and lows of depression and addiction through a cohesive body of
work, speaking to the ever-changing headspace that he was experiencing
at the time of writing.
Absorbed front-to-back in its finished form, Toxic Positivity pulls
from every facet of The Used's definitive sound.
There's the buzzsaw riff of "Pinky Swear (Save Me)"; the sweeping,
arena-sized chorus of "Headspace"; the riveting hooks of "The Worst
I've Ever Been"; and the underlying pop sensibilities of "I Hate
Everybody."
Displaying a depth of sonic variety while never allowing an inch of
slack into its taut cohesiveness, this is the past, present, and future
of The Used represented in 11 tracks that combined barely break the
half-hour mark.

VAGABON - SORRY I HAVEN'T CALLED
On June 15, we will
release the new song "Can I Talk My Shit?," by Vagabon, the moniker of
Ltitia Tamko. We will also announces her new album, Sorry I Havent
Called, which is out September 15th via Nonesuch Records, and a fall
tour that includes a headline run in the US, and EU dates with Arlo
Parks and Weyes Blood. The album, co-produced by Tamko and Rostam
(Vampire Weekend, Haim, Clairo), finds Tamko reinventing herself once
again and features the most playful and adventurous music of her
career.
"I didn't feel like being introspective," says Laetitia Tamko of her
new album Sorry I Havent Called. "I just wanted to have fun." Following
her intimate 2017 debut Infinite Worlds, the New York artist favored
expansive and evocative electronic textures in her breakthrough 2019
self-titled follow-up. But her latest LP feels like a wholly new era
for Tamko, one thats transformational and uncompromising. Across 12
vibrant tracks she wrote and produced primarily in Germany, she
channels dance music and effervescent pop through her own confident
sensibilities. These conservational songs are alive and
unselfconscious, a document of an artist fully embracing her vision and
reclaiming her joy. Tamkos lyrics on Sorry I Havent Called are
uniformly playful and inviting. The first words she sings on the album
are, "Can I talk my shit? / I got way too high for this." Its a
statement of purpose for the rest of the album that this is an
unapologetic artist. "This whole record is how I talk to my friends and
how to talk to my lovers," says Tamko. "I think honesty and
conversational songwriting can become poetry. Theres beauty in plainly
speaking without metaphors and without flowery imagery."

VARIOUS - THE ENDLESS COLOURED WAYS: THE SONGS OF NICK
The Endless Coloured
Ways is a collection of songs by legendary singer/ songwriter, Nick
Drake, performed and recorded by over 30 incredible artists from a
range of different backgrounds, genres, age groups and audiences. From
Fontaines D.C. to Guy Garvey, Aurora to Feist, and Self-Esteem to David
Gray, each artist has offered their own incredible take on a timeless
classickk"Nick Drake was not that concerned with promoting himself as
an artist but I think he would have been overjoyed to hear his art
promoted by so many vibrant and talented artists such as the ones we
approached. Each track is an example of a fellow artist adopting Nicks
art as if it was their own, submitting to the song, and the results
prove to me that talent can so often win out over mere skill or
personality. We are honoured and so grateful to all our friends, old
and new, who took part in the making of this set." - Cally Calloman,
Bryter Music "Having initially exchanged a list of our favourite
artists and realised how much our tastes overlapped, Cally and I set
out on this venture with one simple brief - to ask the artists to
ignore the original recording of Nicks in terms of arrangement,
production and singing style; basically we were asking them to reinvent
the song. First of all it was humbling to hear so many similar
responses, saying how important Nicks music was to them, and how much
they wanted to be part of this project. But as the results came in one
by one, we were staggered by the brilliance and invention that each
artist had shown. They had done what we asked - they had made the song

VARIOUS (SLEATER-KINNEY TRIBUTE) - DIG ME IN: A DIG ME OUT COVERS ALBUM
Sleater-Kinney first
emerged from Olympia, WA in 1994. The group's 1997 landmark album, Dig
Me Out, earned a spot on Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Albums of
All Time." During 2015, they returned from a decade-long hiatus with
the triumphant No Cities To Love, which closed out 2015 on dozens of
year-end lists, reaching #1 for The Daily Beast and The Skinny. In
2019, they teamed up with St. Vincent to produce The Center Won't Hold
followed by a North American and European tour with multiple sold-out
dates. Path of Wellness, their tenth studio and first self-produced
album was released last year before embarking on a summer co-headlining
tour with Wilco that included iconic venues such as Red Rocks,
Merriweather Post Pavilion, and more. To commemorate 25 years of their
iconic record, Dig Me Out, the band gathered artists across genres to
reimagine the 13 original tracks. Artists include Courtney Barnett, St.
Vincent, Wilco, The Linda Lindas, NNAMDI, Jason Isbell and Amanda
Shires.

THE CLASSIC DOUBLE
ALBUM ON LIMITED YELLOW VINYL FOR THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY AS PART OF
MATADOR'S 2023 REVISIONIST HISTORY CATALOG SERIES. This 69-minute
double album is comprised of sweeping, expansive songs that are both
very intimate and conversational. Wakin On A Pretty Daze is a timeless
record that would have sounded great 30 years ago, sounds great today,
and will still sound great in another 30 years from now. Beautifully
produced by John Agnello, the record is filled with hazy, swooning
guitar lines and dreamy, beatific, and occasionally sardonic vocals. It
is summed up by the staggeringly gorgeous 9-minute opener, Wakin On A
Pretty Day. The record has other connections to Kurts home town. Steve
Powers (ESPO), the renowned Philly street artist, painted the cover
mural on an abandoned building near the Northern Liberties.

WAITS, TOM - A RIDER IN THE RAIN
The Black Rider -
the twelfth studio album by Tom Waits - was released in September 1993
on Island Records. The record featured studio recorded versions of
songs Waits wrote for the play 'The Black Rider', directed by Robert
Wilson and co-written with William S. Burroughs. Alongside the released
album's recordings, were studio versions with completely different
arrangements of many of the final tracks, and indeed a couple of tunes
that featured in the play but were not included on the finished album.
This obscure tape was broadcast by a west coast student radio network
soon after the album's release, when the mixing engineer was
interviewed about the record on the station. While this tape has only
rarely been heard by a few fans in the past, it is now available on
vinyl for the first time.

WAITS, TOM - BONE MACHINE (180 GR)
Originally released
in 1992 on Island Records, Bone Machine is Tom Waits' 11th studio
album. 5 years after Frank's Wild Years, Bone Machine is a return to
studio albums for Tom Waits. The album features David Hidalgo, Les
Claypool, Brain and Keith Richards and won a GRAMMY for Best
Alternative Music Album.
Bone Machine is rather pointedly otherworldly. another edge pusher -
his most poetically and sonically daring work yet. Writing again with
his longtime collaborator and wife, Kathleen Brennan, Waits
acknowledges writing darker material saying "A great many songs live
there, so that's where I've been digging lately."
Waits calls the songs on Bone Machine "little movies for the ears." He
sometimes wrote them entirely from a percussion pattern-which he played
on array of largely homemade instruments. One, the "conundrum," was
rusted pieces of farm equipment hung from a large iron crucifix. As
Waits explained at the time, "I have a lot of very strong rhythmic
impulses, but this is not my world. I just pick something up and I hit
it, and if I like the sound, it goes on. Sometimes my idiot approach
serves the music."
Mortality is a recurrent theme, from "Dirt In The Ground" ("We're all
gonna be. . .") to "All Stripped Down," "The Ocean Doesn't Want Me" (a
tale of contemplated suicide), "Jesus Gonna Be Here," the rambunctious
paean to childhood, "I Don't Wanna Grow Up," and certainly the
broken-hearted, confessional classic Waits ballad, "Whistle Down The
Wind." Waits explained at the time: "Yeah, ultimately, it will be a
subject that you deal with. Some deal with it earlier than others, but
it will be dealt with. Eventually we'll all have to line up and kiss
the devil's arse." Yet the album actually ends upliftingly,
with "That Feel" co-written with Keith Richards.
Newly remastered for the first time ever from the original 1/2" flat
master tape and personally overseen by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan.
Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering under the
guidance of Waits' longtime audio engineer, Karl Derfler. The album
packaging has also been restored. Bone Machine includes tracks such as
"Goin Out West," "I Don't Wanna Grow Up" and "Jesus Gonna Be Here."

WAITS, TOM - CLOSING TIME (50TH ANN. ED.)
50th Anniversary
Limited Edition of Closing Time on double vinyl with half speed
mastering from Abbey Road Studios.
2023 marks fifty years since Tom Waits released his landmark debut
album 'Closing Time'. Called "a minor key masterpiece filled with songs
of late-night loneliness" by All Music Guide, 'Closing Time' features
the distinctly lyrical storytelling and blending of jazz, blues and
folk styles that would come to be associated first with Waits. In honor
of this occasion Anti will be collecting and sharing untold stories,
rare photos and more. The album's 50th anniversary vinyl available for
the first time as a double 180g LP cut at 45 RPM with half speed
mastering by London's Abbey Road Studios. The gatefold jacket was also
specially created with thicker board and black poly-lined inner
sleeves. In Rolling Stone's original 1973 review of the record, writer
Stephen Holden immediately detects elements of pathos and bathos that
will be poured over by fans and journalists in Waits's records for
years to come, saying that Waits "parodies the lounge music sub-genre
so perfectly that we wonder if he's putting us on or if he's for real,
and it is his especial triumph that in the end he has it both ways: He
is able to deliver whole both the truth and the sham of the music."
'Closing Time' has become a cornerstone of his fans' milieu and has
been endlessly covered by other artists, most famously the Eagles
(Ol'55) and most recently on a 2021 covers album featuring Jeff Tweedy
and Andrew Bird. Included in Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Song Writers
of All Time and a 2011 inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,
Waits's 'Closing Time' began the career of one of the all-time greatest
artists and an exploration of blues, folk and experimental music that
can't be replicated.

WAITS, TOM - FRANK'S WILD YEARS (180 GR)
Originally released
in 1987 on Island Records, Frank's Wild Years is Tom Waits' 10th studio
album. Titled for a play of the same name and authored by Waits and his
wife, Kathleen Brennan, Frank's Wild Years was performed by Chicago's
Steppenwolf Theatre Company in 1986. Frank's Wild Years is an iteration
of the track "Frank's Wild Years" from Waits' 1983 album
Swordfishtrombones.
The album divides the story neatly into two acts and although titled
"un operachi romantic", there is no opera in Frank's. There is a
hilarious touch of operatic styling by Waits himself in the song
"Temptation." His vocal character varies wildly throughout the works 17
songs, and is no more impressive
than when the gruff, growly singer turns to impeccable Sinatra-esque
phrasing on the Vegas number, "Straight To The Top." While Frank's
featured a 14-member cast on stage, the album is all-Waits - yet
suggests a multitude of characters by virtue of his chameleon vocals.
The album is a startling group of lost dreams, bad dreams, dreams that
might not even be dreams. The music is nightmarish, ethereal,
beautiful. Think broken calliopes played by genius children, horns
played at dawn in a graveyard, banjos leaking through practice room
walls. Titles evoke Frank's dime-store Odyssey: "Straight To The Top,"
"Blow Wind Blow," "Temptation," "I'll Be Gone." NME ranked the work the
number five album of 1987.
Newly remastered for the first time ever from the original 1/2" flat
master tape and personally overseen by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan.
Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering under the
guidance of Waits' longtime audio engineer, Karl Derfler. The album
packaging has also been restored. Frank's Wild Years includes tracks
such as "Cold Cold Ground," "Way Down In The Hole" - versions of which
were used as the theme music of HBO's series The Wire - and
"Temptation." Available on 180 gram black vinyl.

WAITS, TOM - RAIN DOGS (180 GR)
Noted as Tom Waits'
most critically acclaimed album, Rain Dogs follows the new musical path
Waits had taken with Swordfishtrombones. Considered the middle of a de
facto trilogy with Swordfishtrombones and Frank's Wild Years, Rain Dogs
is the first of Waits' albums to be written in New York, in a Lower
Manhattan basement. A 53-minute, 19-track monster, Rain Dogs is a kind
of mutant, late 20th century musical "Canterbury Tales" with a
shape-shifting band. There are banjos and marimbas and bowed saw and
parade drum and howling horns (and Keith Richards and Marc Ribot) on
this rollicking, roughhewn
opus-and Waits, using his voice in increasingly weird-and-wild ways.
The songs are stories, sagas, laments, breakdowns, character studies,
comedies and cabaret numbers. There's the aching "Hang Down Your Head,"
and the moving anthem, "Downtown Train," which was covered by Patti
Smith and Rod Stewart.
Waits coined the term, "rain dog," a reference to dogs who lose their
way when touchstone scents are washed away in storms. Among the lost
dogs on the album: gruff, wandering merchant marines ("Singapore"), an
accordion player in a slaughterhouse ("Cemetery Polka"), a "jockey full
of bourbon" (also the song title), an abandoned, withdrawn woman
("Time"), a "gun street girl," the old drunks and hustlers of Union
Square, and even Waits, himself: Aboard a shipwreck train / Give my
umbrella to the Rain Dogs / For I am a Rain Dog, too. . .
Originally released in 1985 on Island Records, the album is newly
remastered for the first time ever from the original 1/2" flat master
tape and personally overseen by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan.
Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering under the
guidance of Waits' longtime audio
engineer, Karl Derfler. The album packaging has also been restored.
Rain Dogs includes tracks such as "Downtown Train," "Clap Hands" and
"Jockey Full Of Bourbon." Available on 180 gram black vinyl.

WAITS, TOM - SWORDFISHTROMBONES (180 GR)
2023 Marks forty
years since Tom Waits released Swordfishtrombones, ushering in a new
and critically acclaimed musical era for Waits and his longtime
songwriting and production partner, Brennan. Waits went from 70s-era
"bluesy, boozy" wordsmith and melodist with seven albums behind him to
sound sculptor, miner of the subconscious, abstract orchestrator, sonic
cubist-while retaining his innate lyricism, melodic invention,
humanity. As he put it in a 1983 interview: "I tried to listen to the
noise in my head and invent some junkyard orchestral deviation-a mutant
apparatus to drive this noise into a wreck collection." It's a
Waits-arranged pastiche, a variety of atmospheres from different sound
planets. There is the warped, marching-army-ants music of
"Underground," an impressionist chant about people living below cities,
but there was also the poignancy of the spare piano ballad, "Soldier's
Things," the good bar yarn, "Frank's Wild Years", the tender,
minimalist paean to Waits' wife and muse, Kathleen, "Johnsburg,
Illinois," and the raggedy anthem to neighborhood chaos, "In the
Neighborhood."
"On Swordfishtrombones, Waits has made a breakthrough - he's found
music as evocative as his words. Waits's grumble of a voice now bounces
off a peculiar assortment of horns and percussion and organ and
keyboards, as if hed led a Salvation Army band into a broken-down Hong
Kong disco. It's as if he's shifted from monologues to screenplays." -
Jon Parales January 1984 - GQ Magazine

WAITS, TOM - THE BLACK RIDER (180 GR)
2023 marks 30 years
since Tom Waits released The Black Rider. Originally released in 1993
on Island Records, The Black Rider is Tom Waits' 12th studio album. The
Black Rider is a musical comedy/horror collaboration between artists:
Robert Wilson (director/designer) writer/Beat guru, William S.
Burroughs
(text) and Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan (music). Not a cast album,
this Island Records release is Tom's interpretation and performance of
the songs he had originally created for the stage production of The
Black Rider. The music is a Waitsian concoction of pop, vaudeville,
rock, cabaret and blues - a
brew that is strangely familiar yet absolutely fresh.
The unlikely source material is rooted in German Romantic literature
and the Weber opera, "Der Freischutz" (although Waits music does not
quote from the Weber score), The story concerns a marksman who makes a
pact with the devil (in the guise of a shadowy horseman) in order to
win a shooting
contest and hence claim his bride.
A cross between the musical, Cabaret and The Threepenny Opera, The
Black Rider is brimming with the sort of inspired originality that can
only flow from the mind of Tom Waits.
The album is newly remastered for the first time ever from the original
1/2" flat master tape and personally overseen by Tom Waits and Kathleen
Brennan. Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering under
the guidance of Waits' longtime audio engineer, Karl Derfler. The album
packaging has also been restored. The Black Rider includes tracks such
as "November," "Russian Dance" and "The Briar And The Rose." Available

WARD, M. - SUPERNATURAL THING (INDIE)
ECO Mix. "Several
times, as I listened to M. Ward's Supernatural Thing, I asked myself
what year it was. Was it 1952, and was I listening to a track from the
Harry Smith Anthology? Was it 1972, and was I eavesdropping on the
recording session for After the Gold Rush?
No, it's 2023, and M. Ward is one of the special contemporary artists
who invite such questions. Ward has clearly mastered the whole
vocabulary of American popular music and made serious decisions about
how to employ it for his own ends. What Ward shares with Harry Smith's
artists and Neil Young is a context of musical and human values:
authenticity and intimacy. Supernatural Thing's original songs sound
freshly pulled from the ground, with a little earth sticking to them.
Ward's lyric delivery has that slight rawness the ear loves, and his
voice has quiet dignity and great tenderness. Supernatural Thing is an
open-hearted, inviting album. The album's guest stars - First Aid Kit,
Shovels & Rope, Scott McMicken, Neko Case, Jim James, others -
enliven the album with surprises. On "Too Young to Die," the women's
voices in First Aid Kit spread a light frosting over the melody, and
their Beach Boys-like chorus on "Engine 5" makes the song sound like an
instant hit. Eight of the album's ten songs are Ward originals. There's
an unusual Bowie choice, "I Can't Give Everything Away" from Blackstar,
and a live rendition of Daniel Johnston's "Story of an Artist." -By
James Cushing Both as a solo artist and as one-half of She & Him,
M. Ward became one of the defining voices of the American indie
landscape in the 2000s, earning fans and critical acclaim for his
distinctive brand of breezy West Coast Americana which pulled from
folk, country, blues, pop, and experimental indie rock elements. Ward
established himself with warm, analog-minded releases like 2003's
Transfiguration of Vincent and 2006's Post-War before joining forces
with singer/actress Zooey Deschanel to form the highly successful indie
pop duo She & Him in 2008. Over the following decade, Ward split
his time between projects, releasing a 2009 album with indie supergroup
Monsters of Folk, several high-profile albums with Deschanel including
She & Him's Columbia-issued 2014 set Classics, and critically
acclaimed solo releases like 2009's Hold Time, 2012's A Wasteland
Companion, and 2018's What a Wonderful Industry. Ward kicked off the
next decade with a deeply atmospheric set called Migration Stories and
a Billie Holiday covers album Think of Spring most recently.

WAUTERS, JUAN - WANDERING REBEL (BLUE VINYL)
There's freedom to
be found in consistency. Until recently, Juan Wauters may not have
agreed with this statement. As a touring musician and multinational
citizen, transience had always come naturally to him. Circumstance,
however, recently prompted him to reconsider the benefits of staying in
one place. His most introspective work to date, Wauters' sixth solo
album Wandering Rebel finds the artist taking stock of how he's
changed, how the world sees him, and what he wants out of
life.kkWritten mostly during an extended break from touring, the songs
on Wandering Rebel are candid reflections on subjects like career
("Wandering Rebel"), romantic commitment ("Amor Amor"), mental health
("Nube Negra") and the personal toll of touring ("Let Loose"). On
"Modus Operandi," he voices his frustration with New York's fairweather
residents, who fled the city at the onset of the COVID-19 lockdown.
Vocal contributions from fellow New Yorker Greta Kline (Frankie Cosmos)
add to the chorus of playful disapproval. On the singalong-worthy
"Millionaire," he turns his eye to the west coast: "It's hard to get
around Los Angeles / If you don't have a car / I'm staying in a
privileged part of town / It's suspicious for me to be walking."The
clarity with which Wauters approaches these subjects lyrically is
reflected in the music as well. His trademark eclecticism is still
present (fans of Real Life Situations' spirited hip-hop should look to
track 6, "Bolero"), but it's more refined this time, anchored in his
signature Latin-influenced indie folk. Wandering Rebel is peppered with
delicate additions that add depth throughout: rain sounds and hand
drums on "Nube Negra," a strings section on "Modus Operandi," a gentle
vibraphone on "Amor, Amor." Some of these are classic Wauters touches,
but others are owed to outside influences, like production from
Brooklyn-based Carlos Hernandez (Ava Luna, Carlos Truly) and Brazilian
indie artist Sessa, as well as vocal contributions from Kline, Luz
Elena Mendoza (Y La Bamba), Zoe Gotusso, and Super Willy K. Throughout
Wandering Rebel, Wauters attempts to reconcile the stability he's come
to enjoy with the nomadic restlessness that's characterized his life
thus far. In the end, though, it's the interplay of both of these
elements that makes the album so strong.

WAXAHATCHEE - CERULEAN SALT (BLUE VINYL)
Cerulean Blue vinyl
limited to 700 units! On her second full-length record as Waxahatchee,
former P.S. Eliot singer Katie Crutchfields compelling hyper-personal
poetry is continuously crushing. Cerulean Salt follows American Weekend
-- a collection of minimal acoustic-guitar pop written and recorded in
a week at her familys Birmingham home. On this new record, Crutchfields
songs continue to be marked by her sharp, hooky songwriting; her
striking voice and lyrics that simultaneously seem hyper-personal yet
relentlessly relatable, teetering between endearingly nostalgic and
depressingly dark. But whereas before the thematic focus of her
songcraft was on break ups and passive-aggressive crushing, this record
reflects on her family and Alabama upbringing. Whereas American Weekend
was mostly just Crutchfield and her guitar, Cerulean Salt is
occasionally amped up, with a full band and higher-fi production.
At times, Cerulean Salt creeps closer to the sound of PS Eliot: moody,
90s-inspired rock backed by Keith Spencer and Swearin guitarist Kyle
Gilbride on drums and bass. The full band means fleshed-out fuzzy lead
guitars on "Coast to Coast", its poppy hook almost masking its dark
lyrics. Big distorted guitars and deep steady drums mark songs like
"Misery over Dispute" and "Waiting".
Theres plenty of American Weekends introspection and minimalism to be
found, though. "Blue Pt. II" is stripped down, Crutchfield and her
sister Alison singing in harmony with deadpan vox. Shes still an open
booking, musing on self-doubt versus self-reliance, transience versus
permanence. "Peace and Quiet" ebbs and flows from moody, minimal verses
to a sing-song chorus. "Swan Dive" tackles nostalgia, transience,
indifference, regret - over the a minimal strum of an electric-guitar,
the picking at a chirpy riff and the double-time tapping of a muted
drum. The album closes with a haunting acoustic-guitar reflection on
"Youre Damaged," possibly the best Waxahatchee song to date.

WILD NOTHING - HOLD (SEA BLUE VINYL)
Because Hold, Jack
Tatums fifth album under the moniker Wild Nothing, was written in the
aftermath of new parenthood during the pandemic, it was probably
inevitable that it would be searching and existential music. But during
the recording process, the artist known for synth-pop tastefulness used
it as an opportunity to reach for a new sonic maximalism and wider set
of influences. With contributions from longtime collaborator Jorge
Elbrecht, Tommy Davidson of Beach Fossils and Hatchies Harriette
Pilbeam, first single "Headlights On" features an acid house- worthy
bass groove and breakbeat that prove Tatum is playing for the rafters.
Tatum produced the rest of the record on his own, partially out of
necessity, duekto the challenges of the pandemic. The songs were
eventually brought to Adrian Olsen at Montrose Recording in Richmond to
begin recording drums and filling in the gaps. While largely a product
of isolation, Hold also reflects the things Tatum has learned from
collaborators, both on previous records and during his acclaimed work
with Japanese Breakfast and Molly Burch. The rest of the record was
mixed by Geoff Swan, who listeners might know for his work with
Caroline Polachek and Charli XCX. Swan put Tatums vocals high in the
mix, and throughout the album, he embraces playful vocal processing
like never before. Tatum moved from Los Angeles back to his home state
of Virginia about five years ago in search of a scaled-back lifestyle.
The relatively suburban environment-and the occasional regret it
inspired-proved to be great artistic fodder. Its the para- dox of
modern America-the suburbs are supposed to be stultifying to art, but
they are so full of human desperation perfect for dramatizing. On
"Suburban Solutions", he presents an anti-jingle with an acidly bright
synthesizer melody, imploring you to sign on the dotted line, put your
feet up, and embrace sweet oblivion. Adding to the songs menacing
cheeriness is a chorus-sung bridge, made with as- sistance from Molly
Burch and Tatums wife, Dana, It was loosely inspired by the classic
Martika song "Toy Soldiers" and the long-ago pop craze for childrens
choirs, and he embraces the trends less-than-stellar reputation. By
design, Hold dwells in uncertainty and fear, but in a package that
encourages meditation and a bit of fun. "In the face of the pandemic, I
think being a parent really forced my hand," Tatum said. "I felt that I
had no other choice but to have a positive outlook on the world.
Because if I were to give in at any moment and say, "Oh, everything is
horrible," then Ill feel as if Ive lost and Ive given up on my son
being able to thrive in this world."

WITCH - ZANGO
Vinyl LP pressing.
Witch was the first band in Zambia to release a commercial album -
1973's Introduction. Blending the rock and roll sounds of UK rock bands
like The Rolling Stones, Cream, and The Beatles together with more
traditional African rhythms, Witch pioneered a new genre dubbed
Zamrock, and during their brief yet prolific existence, Witch (an
acronym for We Intend To Cause Havoc) were the most revered band in the
country. Zango is the band's 8th studio album and the first release on

YOUTH LAGOON - HEAVEN IS A JUNKYARD
Youth Lagoon - the
beloved project of Trevor Powers - returns with the announcement of
Heaven Is a Junkyard, his first new album in eight years, out June 9th
on Fat Possum, and a new single/video, " Idaho Alien." With whispers of
country, Heaven Is a Junkyard is mutant Americana in a world of love,
drugs, storytelling, and miracles-held together by Powers' voice and an
upright piano. In Powers' own words, " Heaven Is a Junkyard is about
all of us. It's stories of brothers leaving for war, drunk fathers
learning to hug, mothers falling in love, neighbors stealing mail,
cowboys doing drugs, friends skipping school, me crying in the bathtub,
dogs catching rabbits, and children playing in tall grass." Ultra clear
vinyl.
