Black Wave by Lost Sounds

Lost Sounds

Black Wave
Fdh

***BACK IN STOCK!!! Note new lower price. Received an 8.2 rating from Pitchfork. In 2001 LOST SOUNDS released their sophomore double album, following up Memphis is dead with a maturing sound that encapsulates the bands efforts to create a record that touched on many genres including Black Metal & New Wave (hence the album title). JAY REATARD, ALICJA TROUT, RICH CROOK, and JONAS GARLAND created what is commonly known as one of the most important synthpunk records in the 2000s. After many years of Black Wave being out of print, and the always fantastic Empty Records called it quits, we began discussions to reissue this release. Remastered by DAVE ECK at Lucky Lacquers. Housed with reworked and additional art in gatefold jackets.

Rat's Brains And Microchips

***REISSUED!!! The third full-length album from the legendary Memphis bad-asses led by JAY REATARD and ALICJA TROUT. A lyrically thick blast of synth-driven retro-pop that takes on themes of post-apocalyptic morbidity, the urban enervation of our current grim age, and the hope of an even bleaker tomorrow. Originally released by Empty in 2002, this reissue is fully remastered and includes a previously unreleased instrumental from the album sessions.

Lost Lost Demos, Sounds, Alternate Takes & Unused Songs
Goner

Featuring early and alternate versions from Jay Reatard and Alicja Trout’s epic garage / electro-punk band Lost Sounds, Lost Lost collects songs off the Black Wave and Rats Brains and Microchips albums and their final self-titled EP, as well as ones that never saw proper release. The rare and unheard material ranges from captivating kitchen recordings and acoustic takes to fully realized studio tracks. Covers of garage obscurities like “I Cannot Lie” and originals like “No Count” betray the garage rock sensibilities that Reatard was still shedding during the earlier years of the band, while later recordings show the electropunk and black metal influences that crept into their sound.  A great collection from a great band and a couple of great songwriters—maestros of tension without release—Lost Lost will appeal to everyone from garage and punk fanatics to Numanoids and metalheads.

***LOST SOUNDS’ self-titled debut 7-inch is the first release from the potent team of JAY REATARD and ALICJA TROUT and was originally on the legendary Italian garage scum label Solid Sex Lovie Doll in a numbered edition of 300. The EP’s got four songs of aggressive synth-punk in the tradition of The Screamers with enough raw edges to still cut deep. Remastered from the original cassette, these recordings’ new power and (relative) clarity stomp all over the original 7-inch with frightening intensity. Limited to 900 copies.

***BACK IN STOCK!!! The late great JAY REATARD’s first band to see a bit of national success. The band was known for its brutal performances and uniquely combining garage rock with analog keyboards. The resulting sound was dark new wave reminiscent of not much that came before it. Lost Sounds quickly developed an international cult following before the band imploded in typical Reatard fashion. Blac Static is the band’s best material, as chosen by front woman ALICJA TROUT and drummer RICH CROOK. (STREET DATE - 7/19/2011)

***BACK IN PRINT ON VINYL!!! Has been unavailable for almost 2 years!  Note new price.  Memphis, Tennessee’s Lost Sounds’ fourth and final album is by far their most infectious and catchy. Their demented, aggressive approach is still intact, but never so perfectly presented and crafted as it is here. The twelve-track full-length was originally released in 2004; this timely vinyl repress comes on the heels of the band’s debut 7-inch reissue, still hot-hot-hot on the lips and ears of synth-punk maniacs everywhere. Lost Sounds delivers succinct song structure and bottomless-well-style access to fucking unbelievable hooks. Take a track like “And You Dance,” for example: You’re like,  “Oh, I like that keyboard part,” and, “oh, I can’t believe that it went into that next part even though it sounds so perfect that I must’ve heard it before somewhere else.” But you didn’t. You heard it now, for the first time. A band that can pull off that weird deja-vu illusion with their songs commands awe, and you gotta stop doubting that a band could come up with catchy intensity this original. A band like Lost Sounds could have, and does.
