Pink Noise / Man Made Hill

Inyrdisk

***Two prime movers each from Montréal’s most admirable modern punks and Toronto’s relentless electro-pop sorcerer. MARK SAUNER, GRAEME LANGDON and TARA DESMOND’s magic cash’n’carry stunners shake with tight disjointedness, while RANDY GAGNE mystifies with filthy tapes, blown-out beatboxes in full body-slam mode, and some hot-stepping into soulful crooning glory. Risograph-printed covers. Edition of 500.  

Voidfolk

Dwell

Inyrdisk

***A gang with strong ears and minds for the classics of rock, folk and literature, VOIDFOLK rolled their epic, poignant and articulate songs onto tape with JAMES ANDERSON at 6 Nassau in Kensington Market. The meeting couldn't have struck a better match. The band's refined fire is burning brightly in the tight-knit, home-spun hard-rock splendor of Inyrdisk' favourites like "Revolution Man" and "Widow Night." Spearheaded by the band's own Jazz Giraffe label (also home to OIL GIANT the Voidfolk extended-family improv group), this debut LP would do well to dwell on your mind.

Clinton Machine

Gettin' Personial

Inyrdisk

***Eight mystic grunge-pop singles and B-sides for the charts in heaven, plus one long guitar cryer for the heads by BLAKE HARGREAVES—prolific experimenter and a cog in the braintrust that gave the world DREAMCATCHER, THAMES and COUSINS OF REGGAE. Wordy, buried lyrics; thick songwriting magic; mystifying recording techniques; candy riffs; sub-glam moves swathed in smoke; chewed, pig-piled guitars; and obsessive drum kit recording. Seem like Psychic Hearts-loving Royal Trux outsider ’90s worship to you? Cuz it am. Stenciled, screened and stamped sleeve and lyric sheet. Includes a free download. Edition of 333.

Mama Baer

Exorcismes From All My Fingers

Inyrdisk

***The MAMA BAER double-album of the century—a ritualistic culmination of The Freak of Flensburg’s dark, disturbing, and emotional soul awakenings. Eight epic exorcisms and alien dream soundtracks spread over four sides. Eighty-three minutes, one unholy opus of hypnotic female emancipation. Edition of 250.
