The result is a dynamic mosaic of obsessively dark, organic, off-kilter and kinetic death metal.The four-piece band hail from the New York region, consisting of drummer Nick Crifo, guitarists Terrell Grannum (Reeking Aura, Buckshot Facelift, Squelching Flesh) & Pat Hawkins (Asystole, Needlepusher, Kyrios, Aberrated) and vocalist / bassist Cory Peterson (37564 Recordings).

IPEK EGINLI:The sonic narrative immerses you in the journey of being carried into the sky by the clouds, with all of its emotional elements and physical sensations. You let yourself feel as you're elevated to the unknown, learn to let go along the way—moment by moment—worry less about what’s left behind. You look around to the vast nothing and come to understand that loss and freedom can coexist. You return lighter than ever, just like a cloud.In the piano, prepared strings and unprepared strings create two distinct characters with percussive sounds and left-over pitches that shape into different modes.While live electronics from modular synthesizers get triggered by the piano sounds, through improvisation, the pieces travel between atonality and poly-modality and explore rhythmic structures that desire to burst out of their structured-ness.JAD ATOUI:"Ghost Sectors" is an album made entirely from modified hard drives, with all sounds and tones generated by the drives themselves. Each track is a live take, capturing raw and mechanical sounds. The hard drives were built after I received a commission from Yarn/Wire, transforming the motors and needles into instruments capable of producing tones and rhythms. These custom instruments were crafted with the help of mechanical engineer Sevag Babikian. Ghost sectors are forgotten memories, like those in HDDs, that remain present but are no longer accessible. They exist in the background, hidden, much like people, places, or ideas that time and brutality have left behind.

***"Absolute[ly] two new and fresh tunes from Oneida—the original, pioneering [please find less fraught term], Brooklyn DIY band now via Boston, Brooklyn and Queens (NYC real estate keeps 'em guessing). Recorded during a recent session at their new-ish rehearsal studio named (not by them) MALVINA PARTY JAIL (with additional recording at Deep Dive in Flatbush), these two stout, emotive and pungent [insert fragrant?] jams behold a band acting very much their age (almost 30) but also not really acting their age, because they are still at it and somehow have not become cynical and/or unpleasant to be around. So perhaps they are tunes that sound as if they are performed by fresh-faced 30 year olds with a few more things to prove.'I Can't Stand You (single version)' originated as a seed planted by the one and only Baby Jane and brought to redolent and chaotic fruition during an early take. It's rough, ready but also well mannered enough to appear on your neighborhood pirate radio station.We forget the name of the B-side b/c it's taken from an almost hour long jam from the same session (actually it's called 'Steel' b/c Barry plays steel guitar on it!)—and there are no lyrics (any ideas? please write the band care of Ernest Jenning)—but it is as robust and hard charging as the best of this band's storied catalog.Just because they're old doesn't mean they're good!"Beautiful artwork by the band's long suffering and talented designer of choice—Dan Schechter."

German guitarist Olaf Rupp combines elements of traditional flamenco (rasgueados, arpeggios, picados) with the fractured cadences of Derek Bailey, fusing them together with a blast-furnace tone recalling John Lee Hooker's most blown-out extremes. And yet, despite decades of concerts and releases on FMP and Emanem, often with marquee-grabbing collaborators like John Zorn, Peter Brötzmann, Butch Morris, Paul Lovens and Lol Coxhill, Rupp's music is largely unknown outside of European free improvisational circles, and (until now) has never been presented on vinyl. Over its four double LP sides, Fuzzy Logic sounds like a Guitar Solos-era Fred Frith musing on Jandek or Carlos Montoya essaying the music of Cecil Taylor, veering from unadorned yet forceful exclamations into torrents of austere, alien gestures packed with modal angst (a rarity in the capital-I Improvisation world), rewarding careful listening with previously unexplored microlandscapes of impossibly interlocked waveforms. Regarding the album's unique sound, Rupp writes, "Echtzeitmusik-people" -- referring to the most strident non-idiomists of the Berlin improv scene -- "will once again nag at all those minor chords and the indie rock fans will shake their heads in vain looking for the beat. But unrootedness is also a power, a gift, a way." Indeed, Fuzzy Logic is powerfully unrooted. But most strikingly, it tracks Rupp's autodidactic turn into the fraught world of effects pedals. These days, soldering-iron jockeys produce an absurd array of signal processing tools, from bit crushers to tone benders, lo-fi loopers to 24-bit digital arpeggiators, all designed ostensibly as creative tools but more...

Clean the cobwebs. “I recently bought a Vestax MR44 (the best sounding 4-track ever IMHO)—the same 4-track I recorded some Coachwhips, early OCS etc. on. Now we had the tools we needed so I spent a week writing riffs and brought them to Tom Dolas and John Hodge. We ran them one time and then recorded them on the second go.

Misunderstood by the garage turkey purist at the time of its 1999 release (yours truly among them) for being too "rawk!" Oh the follies of youth because in retrospect it's The Drags crowning achievement !!! It's crazy what confusion some wah-wah and oscillation could cause the adrenaline fueled brain of a teenage turkey back then!After Stop Rock & Roll Keith Herrera left to be replaced by Ron Skrasek (Scared of Chaka) on drums. Scott Derr of Monoshock was brought on as a second guitarist/ noisemonger and in house engineer for 'Set Right Fit.' RECORDED IN A BARN FOR MAXIMUM FIDELITY!!! The band added some heft to their sound, the tight quick shots got stretched out a bit, some sonic muckery was added, and we even got some drunkenly fried country twang on 'Jet Lag.' Sure their hair might be two inches longer but despite my teenage protestations it still sounds like THE DRAGS!!! AND IT FUCKIN RIPS!!!!

This is an extremely rare recording when the band was a 5 piece with 2 guitar players.“Live at Spotsylvania” captures Pentagram performing an all-night backyard concert in Spotsylvania, Virginia, at bassist Martin Sweeney’s mother’s house, in front of roughly 500 fans camping out for the weekend. Recorded around 1978 during the band’s short “High Voltage” era, the show began at 1 a.m. on a foggy night and featured rare songs with a raw, powerful performance. The audio blends a low-level board mix with ambient mic recording for surprisingly strong sound quality. A memorable moment came when a firecracker went off perfectly on the beat during the heavy second half of “20 Buck Spin,” echoing through the trees. – Bobby LieblingRecorded in 1978 in Spotsylvania at Martin Swaney’s backyard.

Before The Marked Men, Mind Spiders, O-D-EX, High Tension Wires—hell, even before The Reds—there was Oddfellows. In December 1994 Chris Pulliam, Mark Ryan, and Mike Throneberry played their first show in Denton, Texas. That original lineup was short-lived and mostly played locally, but its members went on to spawn a hundred bands you have heard of. Fast-forward thirty years to December 2024: Oddfellows reform. In three months they wrote and recorded a new album, added guitarist Peter Salisbury (also of Mind Spiders), and hit the road again. The 2026 Oddfellows are tight, punchy, and immediate—short pop songs (most under two minutes) that feel like the raw blueprint of a sound later honed across many bands / decades. Thirteen new tracks plus a reworked Reds classic, this album will prove to be an eye-opening experience for die hard fans and new listeners alike. Their self-titled debut lands in 2026 on Dirtnap.

Los Angeles musician Cate Kennan’s self produced second full length unfolds with the poetry and immateriality of its title: Shadows. Ten vignettes of keys, strings, reverb, and voice, the songs sway and lope between dream and lullaby, rose-colored but remote. The album was inspired by the dislocation Kennan felt upon returning, after several years away, to the rustic neighborhood northwest of L.A. where she’d grown up: “Wandering through a place where my life once existed but where everything had quietly shifted with time.”The music conjures a mood of distance, dust, and dazed emotion, alternately lulling and unraveling. From shuffling tumbleweed vignettes (“The Lone West,” “Romantic Strings”) to sepia-tone torch songs (“Shadows,” “Reverie”) to oblique keyboard meditations (“Moonlight,” “Rain”), Kennan’s soundworld moves with a muted, murky beauty, like alluring shapes seen through smudged glass. In her hands, haze is a transformative property, liberating melody and memory into landscapes still untraveled: “What began as a period of nostalgia for me turned into a longing, not for the past, for a place that might exist somewhere beyond the horizon.”

Key To World Peace is the third release by Prophetic Justice Ministry - aka Australian musician Sam Perry. An atmospheric, cinematic album that belies a striking pop songwriting nous at its core, its conductor Prophetic Justice Ministry is at the centre of a new wave of creative, rule-bending Melbourne artists. Romantic, smudged and hazy, Perry emerges from behind a wall of half-light with a clutch of earworms and affecting emotions.Recorded in home studios in Belgrade (Serbia), Christchurch (New Zealand) and Melbourne (Australia) over the course of three years, Key To World Peace offers a dichotomy in approach. Shifting on a dime between ambient, filmic washes of sound and more traditional song structures, the approach feels natural, casually acid-tipped and emotionally revealing. While Perry’s distinctive keys and production melding with melody is evidenced in Melbourne group Who Cares?, as Prophetic Justice Ministry there’s a heightened sense of mystery and space being used.Swirling in a psychedelic fog with dry iced chords falling down like melting stars, the album pulses with an ominous, distorted intro that sculpts air into blocks of sound before Psyop offers a glimpse through the gloom at the artist navigating through crushed, shoe-gazing chords, singing a consolation into an abandoned building. Side A’s more abstract tone veers from industrial tracks (T-A) to pastoral, impressionistic pieces (Trance) before album highlight Life’s A Party showcases the effortless, classic songwriting lurking in Prophetic Justice Ministry. Built on the tension between the upbeat lyrics and suppressed, rich delivery, the song lopes on an...

Chins For Lefty is the debut album and first recording by Gichard, a new duo chronicling the absurdities of end-stage capitalism and mouldering social rituals from their vantage point in Glasgow, Scotland. Recorded primarily in the band’s home studio straight to tape, Chins For Lefty combines gorgeous, ramshackle melody, DIY kosmische punk, drum machine + synth and, in vocalist/lyricist Lisa Jones, an absurdist commentator on the human condition as it navigates the anxieties of the modern world. Instrumentalist Chas Lalli’s swirling music accompaniment stitches an evocative mix of musical styles, the ragged wind beneath the lyrics’ wings. Although the duo first collaborated in their previous group Dragged Up, their disparate musical and artistic backgrounds make for an alluring mix in Gichard. Lalli has spent the last 20 years in the Glasgow underground, most notably in the noise rock group VOM, while Lisa Jones’s practice was in poetry and spoken word. Beginning as co vocalist in her previous band, in Gichard her lyrics are centre stage; the vision concocted alongside Lalli amounts to a total world-build. Chins For Lefty scans almost like a novel, with each track elucidating a skewed universe that bears only some resemblance to the one you and I partake in. Like all works of fiction Gichard’s songs are rooted in reality and the lived experiences of its authors, but here characters are exaggerated, social mores and habits are pulled apart to reveal their inherent alienness. Universal emotions are laid bare, the bright light of anxious examination searching...

***Second LP from this cult British Oi! ! /street punk oufit, originally released on the legendary Link label in 1987. Refining the high octane sound of their 1984 debut full length into something a bit more tuneful, this 12 track platter delivers a front to back dose of street savvy melodic Oi! comparable to Stiff Little Fingers or Peter and the Test Tube Babies. The late 80's was host to a bevvy of obscure, relatively out of time punk records containing a level of quality that belies their unsung stature. Hopefully giving this Vicious Rumours album a US pressing for the first time will right that miscarriage of justice.

***Previously unreleased 11 track session from 1995 from the Swiss masters of Sugar Oi! Recorded between their first and second albums at the legendary RMS studio in London (known for producing records from Damned, Special Duties, Chaotic Dischord and countless others), several of these tracks were released on compilations at the time, but never before have they been presented as a single album as featured here. For those unfamiliar with the Vanilla Muffins sound, as their "sugar oi!" banner suggests, the group plays infectious punk with a Cocksparrer inspired knack for melody, and an aptitude for pre-punk glitter rock and power pop. This early session delivers a particularly high energy dose of boot stompin anthems.

***In the compilation series presenting Finnish punk singles, it is now the turn of the lively septuagenarian, Pelle Miljoona. Pelle was so prolific even at a young age that his singles from 1978 to 1981 already amounted to a double album's worth of material.Pelle's biggest hits, "Moottortiet," "Olen kauniit sun muut," also fall into this period. The CD version, also released as a double, goes even further and covers the years 1978-1989. Like the previous parts of the series, the double album will be released in collaboration with the American label PNV Records, which is why the extensive background material on the albums is in English.So I don't dream of world conquest, but Owl rules ok!The albums also have beautiful coloring, one vinyl is blue and the other is white, as befits a national hero!

***Collection of early material from this iconic first wave anarcho punk outfit. The post-Crass school of politically infused British punk can sometimes veer so far into experimental territory that the brash and direct sound foundational to the movement becomes obscured by more indulgent musical tendencies. Thankfully this sickness never infected Lost Cherrees catalogue, which maintained a firm footing in the parallel street punk sound of the era. In other words, the group was as comfortable with the somber political diatribes as they were fist pounding pogo anthems, all unified by the infectious and unique dual femme vocal attack. This collection of early EPs originally released on Conflict's Mortarhate/Fight Back labels showcases a tuneful, politically incendiary punk group at the height of their powers.

***Kelley Stoltz is an American songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and DIY innovator whose career stretches back to the late 1990s, when he began self-recording lush, psych‑tinged pop and garage rock in his San Francisco home studio. Born in New York City in 1971, and raised in Michigan, Stoltz has released a remarkable catalog of albums on labels including Sub Pop, Third Man, and Castle Face Records often playing all of the instruments himself and drawing comparisons to the melodic craftsmanship of the major 60’s pop auteurs and the quirkiness of lesser known 80’s power-pop & new wave.After issuing his 18th album, La Fleur in 2024 to critical notice, he returns in 2026 with his 19th full‑length release, If You Don’t Know Me, Buy Now, a collection that continues his long exploration of hook‑laden psych‑pop, introspective lyrics, and richly textured arrangements that both honor his influences and push his sound forward, reinforcing his status as one of the most prolific and singular voices in underground rock.Often compared to everyone from Alex Chilton to Brian Wilson, Nick Lowe to Martin Newell- Stoltz is a pop chameleon. His constant reshuffling of the deck finds him in a constant flux of creativity. If You Don’t Know Me… weaves through his brand of sardonic and playful humor and vulnerable, introspective late night musings. The lead off track and first single from the album, "Competitive Bastard” is a groovy reflection of a musician throwing his hands up at the music industry and the notion of working for exposure...

***Following 2024’s I Can’t Have It All, Bay Area indie pop band Yea-Ming and The Rumours return with their fourth studio album, Residue. With Yea-Ming’s signature heart-tugging lyrics and Nico-esq voice, she continues to explore the rawness of human experience and emotions. When I Can’t Have It All signified a time of change and transition for Yea-Ming, Residue embraces the reset; the examination of reality after a storm.With the help of long-time collaborator Eóin Galvin (Hoxton Mob, Readyville) on lead guitar and lap steel, Ryli colleagues Rob Good (The Goods, Ryli) on bass and Luke Robbins (Ryli, R.E. Seraphin) on drums, Yea-Ming takes us on a journey of regrowth, reflection and exploration.In Treasury of Loved Ones, Yea-Ming explores the permanence of memory, or what appears to be permanent even as time moves on and erases moments out of our lives. It’s a sweet and sad ode to remembering our loved ones, especially those we have lost to in time and in death. In Sweet Opiate (with hints of The Cardigans), Yea-Ming dares to dive into intimacy and its vulnerabilities. In the experimental Paper Doll, she admits inauthenticity in a world where one has been taught to please everyone around them to survive. And in Fine Afternoon, we are confronted with the reality of a tainted rebirth as Yea-Ming sings “in this life renewed, you’re my residue” (here we find our album title) and we remember that resets are never clean.The Rumours explore a little bit musically this time as well;...

Inspired by everything on their turntables from glam and mod revival to left-of-the-dial indie rock and post-punk, Autos cross the subcultural arcade to an 80’s mall rock beat and never shy away from a melody, nor catchy chorus.Written over a transitional period while moving from San Francisco back to Santa Cruz, Auto’s debut EP is a retrospective love letter to time in the big city and returning home to the small town that formed them. A smart and soulful take on punk with lyrical themes of class consciousness, anxiety and the human spirit with heart on your sleeve vocals, moody chorus washed guitars, driving bass, and a steadfast beat perfect for marching in solidarity with the underdog.

Almost 40 years later, the compilation still serves as testament to the diverse, exciting sounds documented by this SoCal hardcore label. With acts such as Bad Religion, JFA, Red Cross and Circle One shoulder to shoulder with more obscure cuts from Ten Minute Warning and Sacred Order, Buried Alive showcases the anti-commercial and community approach of the Smoke 7 label.

***Collection of singles and demos from this mega crucial UK hardcore outfit. With their 1982 debut EP, it would be easy to peg the group as a standard issue Riot City/No Future style punk outfit, and truthfully, "Vice Squad meets Discharge" isn't too far off base. However, whereas so many UK groups of that era folded after a single or two, Potential Threat continued into the mid-80's--UK hardcore's nascent "crust" era—and were able to keep up with the ferocity of emerging group's such as Sacrilege, Concrete Sox, Heresy and the like. Few groups were able to bridge generations of punk like that while maintaining a sonic ferocity and politically militant stance, and if only for that 80's punk devotees might give them respect. Thankfully, in addition to great principles, the group also left behind an array of top notch recordings, as evidenced by this collection.

In many ways Mayhem were the archetypal 2nd wave UK punk outfit, combining the '77 brand of infectious songwriting with a political urgency and aggression fitting of early 80's England. Though there was little to document their short time as a band, this collection pairs all their recorded works with a ton of unseen photos, flyers and 'zine clippings for the ultimate tribute to a group who epitomized such a crucial time for UK punk.

***Here In The Valley is the debut full-length release from helllhound, the intimate sonic collaboration of life partners Cadmar Fitzhugh and Nailah Hunter. Born out of a seismic shift from urban Los Angeles to a remote mountain town in the Sierra National Forest, the record reflects a period of profound transition—into the wilderness, into parenthood, and into a deeper communion with self.Woven together through acoustic guitar, harp, voice, and gentle electronics, Here In The Valleyevokes the textures of the natural world and the unseen dimensions of ancestral memory. It moves like mist through tall pines and echoes like a fireside tale overheard from across a moonlitmeadow. Tracing the arc from conception to early motherhood, the album celebrates the beautyand impermanence of life on Earth, the mysticism of matrescence, and the long journey home tooneself.With tracks written before, during, and after pregnancy, the album unfolds like a handmade mapof a spirit-led pilgrimage—through waterways, starfields, and golden hills. Each song is a milestone, a myth. From the harmonic murmurs of “downstream” to the ancestral chant of “by sea,” the stargazing restfulness of “the pleiades,” and the gentle nighttime balm of “lullaby,” Here In The Valley is a love letter to new life, old stories, and the sacred quiet in between.The pair’s shared creative language finds expression in ethereal ambient and folk sounds. Nurtured in the stillness of California’s high country, their music conjures pastoral dreamscapes that hum with the mystery of birth, the longing of memory, and the wild devotion of partnership....

***Black Editions presents the expanded and definitive edition of White Heaven's brilliant third album Next to Nothing. Originally released in 1994 by Tokyo's Noon Disk, the full album was only ever available in a limited vinyl pressing of 250 copies. Since then, it has become one of the most sought-after artifacts of the '90s Japanese underground and is regarded as a highpoint of Japanese psychedelic rock. Led by vocalist, songwriter and conceptualist You Ishihara, the album finds the group in a phase of refinement. Taking a more intricate and open approach, the music is buoyant and light yet at the same time, nocturnal and introspective. Next to Nothing marks the first time guitarists Michio Kurihara and Soichiro Nakamura appear together on record after having separate turns as lead guitar on the group's first two albums. The pairing is revelatory as they weave luminous melodic lines, sometimes in parallel, sometimes opening into sustained intricate counterpoint. Bassist Koji Shimura and drummer Ken Ishihara shuffle and swing in parallel with a fluid, sinuous rhythm, while flourishes of synthesizer, mellotron and the introduction of Go Hirano on keyboards and piano deepens the group's sound with orchestral colors and a soft cinematic haze. Across the album, clear, shimmering guitar tones and gentle chord progressions are layered with bright arpeggiated figures and darker minor-key passages. The songs develop through gradual changes in tone and dynamics as Ishihara's voice reveals a gentle yearning and wistfulness. An extended version of Burt Bacharach and Hal David's "The Look of...

***Discos Rolas presents Gabriel Dueñez aka Sonido Dueñez’s rebajada mix Grupo Jejeje’s debut eponymous album. Dueñez (born 1947) began DJing as a sonidero at age 13 and is the creator of Monterrey, Mexico’s unique cumbia sound. He is a well-known collector of vallenata, Colombian cumbia, and sonidero records. Dueñez invented cumbia rebajada—dramatically slowed down cumbia—by accident when his turntable’s motor malfunctioned and pitched down the records. After his fans asked for more “rebajadas,” Dueñez modified his turntable to slow down the records and began making rebajada compilations on cassette. Despite being a pioneer of the genre, Dueñez humbly continues to make his rebajada cassettes from home and sell tapes from his stand on the Bridge del Papa over the Río Santa Catarina in Monterrey.Dueñez has releases on Peerless label’s gold and platinum compilation LPs and is featured in Mirjam Wirz’ Ojos Suaves, Amanda Watkins’ Cholombianos, Vice’s “The Evolution of Cumbia Music in Monterrey,” and elsewhere.At Discos Rolas’ invitation, Dueñez made his first trip to the United States to perform at the label launch and Grupo Jejeje release party and participate in an artist conversation with Grupo Jejeje in Los Angeles. Dueñez created the first rebajada of an entire album. 2020 release.

The title of Vic Bondi’s 27th release, Vic Bondi And His Issues, might come off as self-deprecation but in reality, it’s closer to diagnosis. Nearly four decades after helping define politically literate American hardcore, Bondi is less interested in nostalgia than in accountability: personal, historical, and national. Asked what keeps him making music, Bondi kicks it straight: “A beating heart, a tin ear, and raw stubbornness.” That might sound like a joke, but there’s a truth to it. Stubbornness, in Bondi’s case, has always meant refusing to let power go unexamined. Written in Seattle and recorded over two days at Soundhouse Recording Studio, both the sound and the lineup are lean and deliberate. Immediate, enthralling, and crafted with razor precision, its name (bestowed by Jello Biafra) winks at confession while pointing squarely at the culture.Bondi’s political lens was formed early. The son of a U.S. Navy captain, he moved twenty-two times before turning eighteen. “When you grow up military, you move every two years or so, whether you want to or not,” he says. “So, no matter how formidable your father might seem, someone else is actually calling the shots in a way that affects you directly, especially if you’re a kid.” That instability, he explains, “predisposes you to a healthy skepticism about authority figures.” Bondi has been mining that skepticism for decades, emerging as a founding force behind Chicago’s early-’80s hardcore movement with Articles of Faith. Following the 1985 breakup of Articles of Faith, Bondi spent time in Jones...

***San Francisco’s heavy sound mystics Theya are proud to present their debut full length opus Theya Vol. 1. A sweeping, genre bending collection of mythic, hard hitting tracks, the record blends the new wave of British heavy metal, thrash, doom, MC5-style rock and roll, and classic psych into a soulful sound entirely their own. Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Tim Green (The Melvins, Earthless, The Fucking Champs) at Louder Studios over the course of Venus re-emerging as the evening star, Theya Vol. 1 is a fully realized introduction to the band’s expansive world.Theya was first envisioned in 2018 by longtime friends Tuula Paivio-Ala and Michael Scanland. Together, they began developing a shared sound, with Scanland’s bass providing a steady foundation and Paivio-Ala’s baritone leads adding a heavy melodic edge. Drummer Mic Rawls soon joined, strengthening the rhythmic core. Followed by Samantha Grove on lead vocals, whose four octave range brought a powerful and dynamic presence. Tobias Wettstein completed the lineup on second guitar, complementing the band’s evolving sound. Together, the band has crafted a musical language entirely their own.Theya Vol. 1 moves with cinematic scope, weaving together mythology, cosmic consciousness, Philip K. Dick inspired characters, and fever dream symbolism. As the band assumes mythic forms, the Witch, the Warrior, the Horseman, and the Wizard, they guide the listener through a shifting terrain of shadow and revelation. Shaped by deep musical devotion and a belief in the redemptive power of rock and roll, Theya Vol. 1 is an immersive blend of...

With their second LP Veld, Sick Gazelle take their cosmic and instantaneous group communications to new levels of clarity and structure, without losing the spark of the jam. The band expands from longtime Chicago underground players Eric Block on guitar (Veloce) and vocalist/saxophonist Bruce Lamont (Yakuza) with drummer Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth) to include Douglas McCombs (Tortoise) on bass. Though these five tracks are sculpted from improvisations, they’ve been refined into song forms that illuminate the strengths of both the individual players and the chemistry of the quartet version of the combo. This comes through in Veld’s moments of reflective subtlety on tracks like “I’ll Come Running,” in the foreboding tension of the cinematic “Ocean Always Wins,” as well as in the charged grooves and dubby undercurrents of the sideways rocker “Hippies.”

Toronto’s Mad Iris has been playing live in the local underground scene since 2023, blending noise rock, punk, and shoegaze into a sound that honors influences like Sonic Youth, Pixies, and the Breeders. Their self-titled debut album covers desire, obsession, longing, and grief, taking place in basements, night buses, and gas stations, with gum stuck to desks and drinks spilled on sticky floors. Throughout the record, distorted vocals crash and ascend in unison with thrashing drums, plump basslines, and staticky guitar overdrive, lurching between restraint and eruption.A Mad Iris song teeters on disaster, shifting from gritty feedback to intentional sloppy haze, like the sound of a tape machine overheating. Strong, sparkling production is complemented by a wall of noisy visuals: videos that emulate a worn VHS tape, scrapbook show flyers, and alleyway photoshoots. “Our visuals are an integral part of the band’s style,” says bassist Ela Hinatsu, who shares lead vocals with guitarist Kaiya Rosie, often on the same song. With a deliberate sound, style, and presence, Mad Iris goes beyond being a band, becoming more of an art project.Opening track, “Silver Nails”, sets hushed, breathy vocals floating over a screechy guitar line, played by Patrick Muldoon, before collapsing into distorted, whiny grit and greedy screams, ending the track with a guitar solo from producer / mixer Ximuna Diego, who, with his own musical expertise, is the secret to Mad Iris’ signature distorted sound. The album oscillates between sweet and bitter, pretty and dirty, lust and shame. “Poor Baby” is...

***REPRESSED!!! Note new price. TOTAL CONTROL's 2011 debut album, Henge Beat, changed the way people thought about Australian music forever. Out of print since 2020 but now it's back and better sounding than ever. The combination of all their previous work and a steady live band has come together to form the great Henge Beat LP. These guys have outdone themselves with this one. Musically it rests somewhere between late ‘70s UK new wave a-la Ha Ha Ha-era Ultravox and the "now sound" Eddy Current Suppression Ring. Aussie garage that we all know and love. Add a dash of hopeful Krautrock flavor and the recipe is a smashing success. We could not be happier to offer this perfect execution to you. 2026 pressing: 1,000 copies on black 150gr vinyl housed in a 24pt jacket with huge newsprint poster included.

***Sorcerer Records present the first reissue of Jody Harris and Robert Quine's Escape, originally released on the New York based No Wave label Infidelity (Lust/Unlust subsidiary) label in 1981. Jody made his name on the NY scene mainly through his work with the legendary avant-funksters, The Contortions, while Robert Quine, who sadly passed away in 2004, was one of the most acclaimed guitarists of his day, noted for his work with Richard Hell & The Voidoids, Lou Reed, Tom Waits, John Zorn, Matthew Sweet, and many more. The two recorded Escape in Quine's apartment with a whopping budget of $7 (that's what it cost Quine for the tape). The album sees them both engaging in guitar duels over a primitive drum machine, a kind of skeletal minimal-synth with avant-guitar excursions overhead. Outward-bound yet wholly listenable, the five tracks represent a great lost gem of the NYC underground scene of the day. Recommended to fans of No Wave, Rhys Chatham, Suicide, and the music of Robert Quine and Jody Harris, of course. This edition also comes with an inner sleeve featuring liner notes from Jody Harris detailing the recording, as well as exclusive photographs of the two. Remastered by Mikey Young and fully authorized by Jody Harris and Robert's brother, Van. Edition of 600.

"Having only been sloughing around the Queen City for about a year, SMARM have already ran into a studio to knock out a three-song EP that reclaims some of the sting oft-absent from the current underground trash rock scene.The maniacally majestic opening guitar lick on, uh, 'Lick the Fist' makes it point and gets out of the way of the monster riff. Then the lead in “Cut Out,” uh, cuts out like a 17-year old jumping the gun on the last tick of homeroom before summer vacation starts. Of course SMARM are no teens (at least not numerically), but that only means their seasoned playing can avoid any insecure putzing around.This feisty foursome are past the point of investigating a hoot about what anyone who’s watching or listening might think; but close enough to their initial R’n’R inspiration to remember the root cause: fun!Eric Stein—he of the aforementioned wild leads—slices’n’dices around with guitarist Sam Richardson, while bassist Liam Dolan drives the bass right up the gut.Throughout, nifty tricks like the unique doubled-up vocals (members switch up singing duties) dodge between the flailing riffs, and drummer Drew Decker’s micro-rolls feel like they’re shoved by the caveman pound of the snare, giving the songs a rattled feel that grooves into something like burly in the midtempo closer, 'Make Something Happen.'Cincinnati has a proud tradition of coughing up a solid barn-burning garage rock band every 7 years or so, and SMARM might be the latest match-striker.

Strange Tanks is their sophomore album—recorded on 2" tape by Jimmy Dixon at 64 Sound and Homestead Studios—and fnds the band at their most dynamic and unpredictable.

***Sonic Blossoms are a heavy psych and space rock supergroup drawn from some of LA's most respected underground acts. Channeling Spacemen 3, Red Crayola, The Stooges, and raw '60s psychedelic garage, the band deploys extreme fuzz and distortion, wah-soaked guitar, organ drones, trancelike rhythms, and echoing theremin into a sound that is both vast and claustrophobically intimate. Their self-titled debut on Slouch Records is a singular, cohesive statement—a feedback-drenched journey that rewards repeated listens.

***Oog Bogo is the Los Angeles project of Kevin Boog—former bassist of Meatbodies and a fixture of the Ty Segall orbit. Having released records on Ty Segall's God? Records and In The Red, Boog has built a devoted following across the underground with his homespun, lo-fi approach to psych-punk and post-wave weirdness.Here Oog Bogo turns to two unlikely standards and reframes them without sentimentality. Side A revisits “Video Life,” originally written and recorded by Chris Spedding in 1977—a song about image, mediation, and the strange performance of modern life.Side B takes on “I Want You Around” by The Ramones— ne of the band’s most direct expressions of longing, first released in 1978.Rather than updating or modernizing the material, Oog Bogo places both songs in the present tense. Two late-70s statements about desire—one filtered through media, one stripped to devotion—pressed back into circulation.

***Josephine Foster is a Colorado-born singer, composer, and lyric poet. A former opera student turned visionary folk experimentalist, she breathes new life into archaic forms. Her music channels the spectral glow of the cultural archaeology of Harry Smith's old weird America while simultaneously conjuring a scrambled past that exists only in her vision. Across 25 years of singular work, Foster plays at the boundaries of psych-folk hymnody, country blues, lieder and avant-song, lending her characteristic mezzo-soprano and interpretive wit to collaborations with fellow underground musicians around the globe.As homage to her longtime collaborator, Josephine invited Spanish composer Víctor Herrero to curate a selection of his own songs for her voice. Herrero's classical guitar accompanies Josephine's gossamer singing, in compositions that reanimate the lineage of Amancio Prada and Victor Jara.“If stained glass windows could sing they would sound like Josephine Foster, and her interpretations of the songs of Víctor Herrero are as artful and finely detailed as motes of dust falling through shafts of light in the libraries of your childhood, engrossing in their restraint. Josephine's naked voice an echoing truth in repose against the existential question mark of Víctor’s guitar. In a world that can feel bewildering and relentless, this music is shelter. Adormidera is the sound of a hypnotised mind; the shadow-dance of old souls.”—Alex Neilson

***Saitte Mitä Halusitte is the new 9-song mini-LP from Helsinki, Finland’s Yleiset Syyt. If you loved 2022’s collection LP Toisten Todellisuus (also co-released by La Vida Es Un Mus and Sorry State), you’ll be pleased to hear Yleiset Syyt still has a knack for finding that circa-1981 hardcore sweet spot, evoking a moment when hardcore’s aggression bubbled over, yet the music still contained much of the pop architecture that anchored late 70s punk. In layman’s terms, I’m talking about hooks, which Yleiset Syyt has for days. Check out the downright iconic riffs in “Geenipoolin Pohjimmainen” or the title track, “Saitte Mitä Halusitte.” These riffs don’t just stick in your head; like “I Don’t Wanna Hear It” or “Pay to Cum” or “Iron Man,” they make you want to pick up a guitar and join in the fun. While Yleiset Syyt’s potent songcraft still recalls their Finnish forbears Lama as well as first-gen US hardcore legends like Minor Threat or the Fix, Saitte Mitä Halusitte doesn’t stop at homage, pushing the sound in several directions while maintaining Yleiset Syyt’s instantly identifiable voice. “Aavekaupunki” and “Kaaos Jää” draw on gripping, tension-filled UK82 punk, while “Sotakoneet” has that touch of melancholy that made both Lama and early Bad Religion so special. “Ansioton Köyhä” taps into Appendix’s aggressive glam-punk, while “Tuhat Kättä” closes the record by fusing moody UK anarcho-punk with “Damaged I”-style mental breakdown vocals. If you’re looking for raging, catchy hardcore, then Saitte Mitä Halusitte will scratch that itch. But there’s something...

Raw Distractions have been raised on the catalogue of Beat the System, Clay Records and Riot City. They play lean and hard hitting UK82 punk with some raging guitar work and a guttural vocalist who spits and snarls but never forgetting the hook. It’s instant, raw and unhinged and would sit perfectly next to Charged GBH, One Way System or The Exploited, but with that Japanese magic dust. This is raw punk but hard and melodic rather than overblown.

***In the early 2000s, The Hydromatics brought together three scenes, three cities, and one shared devotion to rock'n'roll: the fiery tradition of Detroit, the raw punch of Amsterdam, and the high-energy attitude of Scandinavia. Fronted by none other than Scott Morgan (Sonic´s Rendezvous Band), one of the great voices of Detroit rock, and backed by Tony Slug (Loveslug) and a band built out of genuine love for the legacy of Sonic's Rendezvous Band, the result was Powerglide—a record that is tough, streetwise, soulful, elegant, and raw all at once. Originally released in 2001, Powerglide captures The Hydromatics in full flight. Original songs sit alongside explosive takes on material connected to the Sonic's Rendezvous universe, all delivered with nerve, conviction, and the kind of authority that simply cannot be faked. The guitars bite, the rhythm section drives relentlessly, and above all there is Scott Morgan's voice—capable of sounding fierce, wounded, and defiant within the very same line. Far from being a mere exercise in homage, Powerglide stands tall as a living, breathing record with a personality all its own: high-octane rock'n'roll fueled by rhythm and blues soul and steeped in the unmistakable spirit of Detroit. This is an album for those who understand that proto-punk, garage soul, and real rock'n'roll were never separated by any meaningful border in the first place.

“While performing at an early Twentieth Century steam driven power plant and imagining what its industrial ambiance might have been, an outline of ‘A Penchant for the Useless’ emerged. Like many of my projects, the album started with a search for the kinds of unique, amusical sounds I wanted to work with. And credit is also due to a rereading of Nicolas Collins’ ‘Handmade Electronic Music.’” Using a collection of electric guitar pickups, contact microphones, and transducers that would vibrate random metallic and wooden objects, Barreca built a library of loop recordings. Also recorded were the electronic buzzes and bleeps of a computer and various home appliances. Granular effect processing and layering with a sampler and a physical modeling synth transformed this largely atonal source material into deep, harmonious assemblages.These long chains of sonic transformations fused with the dark beauty of their industrial steam-era inspiration, and resonate throughout the music. Only rarely will these pieces hint at their now obsolete and decaying source materials. ‘A Penchant for the Useless’ is Marc Barreca’s 15th solo album, adding to a catalog of constantly evolving and refining experimentation and compositional innovation that now spans more than four decades.Barreca has also collaborated with Three Point Circle, Young Scientist, Savant, and K. Leimer. Mastered by Taylor Deupree at 12K Mastering.

***"I was hanging out with Bill Orcutt at the 930 Club nearly 30 years ago, watching a famous post-rock band (who shall remain nameless, but whose moniker contained two-and-a-half times more articles and conjunctions than nouns) when he said: 'This band is like my band in college—all major 7th and 9th chords.' I relate this to emphasize that in the case of Bill Orcutt and Harry Pussy, the seemingly untutored ooze of 'Please Don't Come Back From the Moon' and 'Girl With Frog' had its genesis in something far more Apollonian than is usually understood. It's debatable whether or not Watt, the duo of Orcutt and drummer Tim Koffley featured on Recorded in Miami, is the above referenced grad-school band. Watt is not resplendent with jazz chords, but it's certainly more tutored, offering a mannered link between the contemporaneous Thunders-esque punk of Orcutt's Trash Monkeys and Harry Pussy's mayhem. The continuity with Harry Pussy is more than temporal. Recorded in Miami is Orcutt's first use of the four-string guitar, and Harry Pussy claimed the same amp and drum kit. The resemblance more or less ends there. To further put Recorded in Miami—made on Orcutt's Walkman, Rat Bastard's North Miami studio, and South Miami's Natural Sound (total bill $289)—into context, consider the fecundity of the underground music world as the '80s rolled into the '90s. It's hard to relate to those who missed it, but it was a time when post-hardcore hadn't quite given way to the bloat of grunge, when...

***Guitarist BILL ORCUTT and drummer JACOB FELIX HEULE (ETTRICK, FRED FRITH, SULT) have been performing regularly around the San Francisco Bay Area since 2012, but this is their first release together. Recorded in Orcutt's living room in the early months of 2015 and named after a chain of Oakland coffee shops, Colonial Donuts collects 13 compact, stylistically diverse duets for electric guitar and drums, ranging from hushed, socially anxious folk to sprung electric blues to dense, pummeling free improvisation. Mixed by Frank Falestra at Dan Hosker Studios in Miami Beach; mastered by James Plotkin; designed by Bill Orcutt.

***Brace Up! is the first ever studio release from the duo of CHRIS CORSANO (drums) and BILL ORCUTT (guitar). Recorded in Brussels at Les Ateliers Claus by CHRISTOPHE ALBERTIJN on March 19th and 20th, 2018. "Over the past six years or so, drummer Chris Corsano has proven to be one of Bill Orcutt's most reliably flexible collusionists. Regardless of whether Bill is cluster-busting electric guitar strings, weaseling around with cracked electronics, or playing relatively spacious free-rock, Corsano is able to provide the proper base for his aural sculpting. A lot of Orcutt's instrumental work has traditionally felt hermetic even though he's exploring caverns of explosive ecstasy. One often got the impression Bill was operating in the way John Travolta did in the classic 1976 ABC television drama, The Boy in the Plastic Bubble. Orcutt's actual interaction with collaborators emerged not from communication so much as pure observation. While he was fully cognizant of his musical surroundings, his reactions to it were walled off. This approach did not encourage sonic dialogue so much as parallel streams of discourse. These streams could interact with each other, but not in particularly standard ways. On Brace Up! , their first ever studio release, this precept has changed considerably. Whether it's a function of emotional familiarity or an intellectual choice I dunno, but there's a whole new kind of duo exchange going down on this record. Bill and Chris are clearly playing off each other's moves throughout the album. And it really raises the level...

Since exploding on the improvised music scene a couple of years ago Tennessee native Zoh Amba has found herself engaging with an ever-widening group of collaborators as she tours across the US and Europe. She’s forged some enduring partnerships, working regularly with drummer Chris Corsano, bassist Thomas Morgan, and pianist Micah Thomas, among others, but one of the deep pleasures of improvised music is when a first- time meeting produces sparks. Indeed, that’s certainly the case with The Flower School, which bottles some serious lightning. In March of 2023 Amba and Corsano had finished up a duo tour of the west coast with an explosive performance in San Francisco. The next day the duo entered the studio with guitarist Bill Orcutt—a trusted collaborator of the drummer stretching back a decade. It was the first time Orcutt and Amba had ever played together, but it sure doesn’t seem that way.Although Amba has often recorded a bunch of tune-oriented albums for Tzadik she’s a free improviser at heart, and this trio arguably provides the most effective, elastic context for her playing yet. Yet what’s most astonishing about The Flower School is how it elevates and transforms the playing of all three participants. It appears that there was more than enough trust in the room to allow each player to push-and-pull. Anyone who pays attention already knows that Orcutt and Corsano are mercurial figures, perpetually adapting, adjusting, and challenging one another so that every performance by their duo seems to spring from a...

“We learn to speak from people, and to be silent from gods.” – PlutarchTruck Violence’s second full length record, The weathervane is my body, is an attempt to answer, an attempt at conciliation through refusal.Karsyn Henderson and Paul Lecours grew up in a French Canadian town of six hundred people, graduating in a class of nine. By fifteen they were running a local studio and radio station. There was no industry support, no infrastructure, no template for what they were trying to do, only the work itself and the conviction that it was worth doing.At seventeen they relocated to Montreal, joined by Chris Clegg and Thomas Hart, assembled from different corners of the country, and began building Truck Violence from the ground up. The weathervane is my body, the band’s second full-length record and first with San Francisco’s The Flenser, is the product of that process. Every element reflects this. The group composition, the recording, the mixing and the visual media were all produced in house without outside intervention. DIY here is not an aesthetic choice or a marketing angle, it is the only honest option available.The album cover was shot on film by the band on Avenue du Parc in Montreal. A figure perches atop a small Quebecois-style house, handbuilt from reclaimed materials, spine curved, legs pulled in, bare-backed against a skyline that dwarfs everything beneath it. A rural thing dropped into the grit of the city, small and out of place and refusing to disappear. The body is...

The journey of Spirit Adrift has come full circle. With their sixth album in a decade, mastermind Nathan Garrett is ready to unleash the band’s final chapter. Infinite Illumination, the Spirit Adrift swansong, is a return to the wellspring that first inspired it all and testament to a band that in the last ten years has crafted an impeccable signature thoroughly their own, molded from the elemental matter of more than a half century of heavy metal exaltation. Infinite Illumination has a directness to it, a sense of urgency and raw intensity. The songs feel inevitable, like they had to be driven out from deep within during a time of great upheaval. The fatalistic “Born in a Bad Way” summons a vengeful “broken relic from another age” that must “live again and make them pay” via Garrett’s swaggering snarl, while “White Death” impugns “God shined on a chosen few, we must kill the rest of you”. These songs have a palpable sense of malaise both spiritual and terrestrial, personal and universal, inflicted via crushing traditional doom riffs, thunderous mid-tempo marches and Garrett’s impassioned vocal delivery. Long after the band is gone fans will continue to discover the Spirit Adrift catalog and witness the breadth of greatness they delivered in just a decade’s time. Every melodic, epic and emotionally charged thread that defines the band’s legacy honors the animating force behind pure creative ambition. And at its core Infinite Illumination carries both the weight of conclusion and the troubling realization that...

"Oakland, California’s Marbled Eye re-enters the plot with their latest offering Forever. Formed in the Bay Area in 2016 by Guitarists Chris Natividad, Michael Lucero, drummer Alex Shen, and bassist Andrew Oswald, Marbled Eye swiftly recorded their first 2 EP’s and began touring the US garnering notoriety for their propulsive post-punk music. Stylized by deadpan vocals, linear and tight rhythms, and tangled, angular guitar ingenuity, Marbled Eye are a fierce addition to the turntable for lovers of bands like The Fall, ECSR, and This Heat. In 2018, the group self-recorded and released their debut LP Leisure- a highly coveted album by burgeoning punks and record-heads alike. From there, Marbled Eye extensively toured the US and Europe earning recognition as a palpable live force. Building up to their next release, Andrew Oswald left Marbled Eye and was replaced by Digital Regress operator, Ronald Portugal. In 2024, with the addition of Portugal’s methodical bass-work, Marbled Eye conjured their latest LP Read The Air, a modern cornerstone for fans of contemporaries Institute, Uranium Club, and RMFC. Now, The group has aligned to release their new 6-song 12” EP, Forever- A hopeful nod for the future of punk rippers Marbled Eye."With Forever, Marbled Eye carves a deeper path along their singular journey into the future of punk. The music on Forever takes a step deeper into the void, the group accessing powerful studio magic to craft bigger and bolder hooks.

"LA Punks Memo PST return with another modern punk classic Eternal Actors, their new album out this May on In The Red. These 12 tracks capture the fury of late '70s rough and raw punk rock, with Orville Neeley crafting hit after hit of god-tier punk bangers. Vocalist Chris Shaw is also at his most versatile to date, with his lyrical capabilities and patented punk sneers dripping across every song."Simply put, Eternal Actors finds two lords of the punk genre at their very best. There are classic punk bashers like “Dog Groomer Stylist,” and “Doomed to Repeat” but also primitive, bare-bones rock rippers like “Chrome Bubble” and Worship Me.” The band also delivers some of their most hardcore songs to date with “Concrete Club” and “Blown Away.”"With the San Clemente wrecking crew of Jackson Todd (drums) and Emmanuel Koulouris (bass) back again to round out the four piece band, this is truly a powerhouse presentation of punk music in 2026. If the band proved they were a punk force with their long sold out, self titled album, Eternal Actors may solidify their place at the top of the punk pile."Recorded in late 2025 by longtime collaborator Mike Kriebel at Tropico Beauty Supply in Los Angeles, Eternal Actors is Memo PST's second album for In The Red." – Johnny Dogface

***After making us wait a decade for their first LP, SIYAHKAL hesitate none to deliver another blow to the head. A year later, another twelve inches. On “Corrupt,” their trademark gallop comes through clearer while no less mired in ear-piercing qualls of noise. Unrelenting in intensity for its 12-minute run time, “Corrupt” has a certain urgency to it—a frustration, a tension and release. If it slows, it’s only to recollect and come back blazing. At moments, the record harkens to the dissonance of LP-era Die Kreuzen. At others, it harnesses the hypnotism of the first Una Bestia Incontrolable LP. Here, Siyahkal uses rhythmic propulsion like a jackhammer to the skull. If there are prisoners being taken, it will not be them. Through all of it are KG’s gruff vocals, and lyrics that aim to capture the very moment that the greater “we” all find ourselves in—under the boot of States that neglect our very right to be free. Iran or America, the people in power are all the same. They see us all as fodder for war, to maintain their power. And with ‘Corrupt,’ this injustice is not just written into word, but screamed into song.

***Rock För Kropp Och Själ stands as the final, definitive statement from Träd, Gräs och Stenar during their original tenure with the legendary Silence label. By 1972, the band had reached a breaking point. After five years of relentless touring—defined by marathon three-to-four-hour performances delivered four or five nights a week—the collective was physically and creatively spent. The weight of expectation had become a burden; the band felt pressured to deliver "maximum ecstasy" and total psychic immersion at every single gig. This period of high-intensity "flipped out" performances culminated in their final appearance at the Falun prison in July 1972, after which the members dispersed to refocus and recreate their individual artistic paths. Expanded content: Includes a bonus LP of rare live material from Denmark and Gothenburg.

Formed in 2025 as a studio project by five friends in the fertile Nottingham DIY underground, No Peeling have rapidly expanded way beyond their initial brief. September 2025’s self-titled EP was the perfect introduction to the No Peeling universe. Bandcamp Daily picked it as an Essential Release, calling it “a clanging collection of get-in-get-out egg punk that doesn’t ask for more than 10 minutes of your time and overdelivers on every front”. It managed to cram a lifetime of idea-nuggets into seven songs that rarely exceeded the minute mark. A blast of enthusiasm and hyperactivity, the EP was the audio equivalent of a barrage firework: exhilarating and energising (although slightly confusing unless experienced from a distance).Whilst the first EP was completed before the band had played live; EP2 hits a little differently. Written in preparation for their first UK tour and recorded just after, No Peeling’s new-found live energy pushes the results to somewhere new again. EP2 has the garage punk clatter and sparkly efficiency of their debut but is somehow faster and weirder. The guitar and synth seem to be engaged in a constant (playful) fight, tumbling further and further away from the song structure being held together (and propelled) by one of the tightest rhythm sections around. The scrawl and skronk might occasionally recall No Wave but those grooves are locked down.This all provides the perfect foundation for the wry, dry observations of Sophie Diver. From pasta post and fluff-clad delinquents to clingfilm catastrophes and poor working conditions,...

It turns out that the duo's frontman, JOHN BARRETT, wrote and recorded the album in a series of basement apartments. Armed with a guitar, drum kit, and USB microphone, Barrett threw together scuzzy pop songs steeped in punk and doo-wop that dive into topics such as taking drugs, having sex, and other regular teenage activities.”—Andrew Martin

***The legendary Afro-Colombian group Son Palenque, founded and directed by singer and composer Justo Valdés, celebrates over four decades of musical history with the release of their new album Rincón de África. It marks an important milestone in the band’s 40-year recording career and stands as a vibrant testament to the living musical traditions of Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Musically, the album moves across several traditional and contemporary Afro-Caribbean styles. Listeners will hear the driving rhythms of champeta in songs such as “Rincón de África,” “Chapeto,” and “Novia de Barranquilla,” alongside traditional forms including chalupa, sexteto, and bullerengue in tracks like “El Puente de Palenque,” “Anaito,” and “Mina Toto.” The result is a dynamic recording that bridges ancestral rhythms with the modern Afro-Caribbean sound that Son Palenque helped pioneer.The vinyl version contains 12 tracks, including 10 previously unrecorded compositions, written by key members of the group including Justo Valdés, Pánfido Valdés, and Enrique Tejedor.Pressed on limited green vinyl.

***Anonymous transmissions from a spectral, dead-of-night mystery zone. Recorded in 1996 and originally release by Japan's enigmatic La Musica Records label on limited cassette. A group that deconstructs and liberates the chance nature of contemporary classical and noise music enough so that their boundaries blur. Available for the first time on vinyl and digital. Recorded in 1996 and released without any identifying credits in an essentially private cassette edition, Bibiotheca Hermetica's sole release, One, was only the second by the Japanese La Musica label and remains one of its more obscure and enigmatic entries. The group works in spaces adjacent to contemporaneous outfits like Nijiumu and Toho Sara though its non-idiomatic improvisations and decentered, free sound explorations call back to seminal collectives such as the Taj Mahal Travellers and the East Bionic Symphonia. The music constantly shuffles and sifts filled with hypnotic clatter and clamor, rattling percussion, toughly scraped strings, gurgling bass tonalities and pirouetting winds. An anonymous transmission from a spectral, dead-of-night mystery zone. Housed in a custom die-cut, "Uni-Pak" style gatefold with metallic ink, spot finishes and matching La Musica inner sleeve.

In my estimation that explosive blending of sonic complexity and visceral, primitive expression is really at the heart of David and The Jesus Lizard’s power, as it is also at the heart of Orcutt Shelley Miller. Beefheart hand-carved the model for that musical dynamic in marble.”On the subject of Beefheart David Yow says, “I am extremely grateful for Don Van Vliet and the stuff he made, both the things you look at and the things you listen to, but no more so than OSM. That may or may not be the truth.”

Their energy, stage presence, and ultra punk look was as inspirational as their music, functioning like a call to action for many. Hot on the heels of this tour, being locked in, tour tight, and at their peak, they decided to go into the studio and make an album of all the best early songs they felt were never properly recorded or done justice, along with some new ones. The result is a masterpiece and some of the most explosive hardcore punk from any time and anywhere.

Multi-instrumentalist Sarah Lipstate brings her innovative music to life under the name Noveller. Forming unexpected sonic routes, her songs are vivid and cinematic. Following several years spent collaborating with Iggy Pop, and touring the world as his guitarist, Lipstate returns with a new album of her own. I Am The Weather further expands her inventive explorations, creating what Pop once described to Jim Jarmusch as “symphonies for people that don’t have a lot of time.”Sarah’s work as a composer, notably for the HBO Docuseries Breath Of Fire, as well as the Anthony Bourdain documentary Roadrunner, has greatly influenced her new constructions, incorporating piano, percussion and a new studio filled with excitement into her signature guitar sculpting. It is the baby grand at the center of her studio that welcomes you to the record on “Sunday in Copenhagen” before ceding to a celestial six string swell. The percussive rhythms of “Divining Dance” awaken a new morning in “The Way of Our Flood” and walk towards the bowed grace of “Otherside of Mountainside.” Surging into the sky, “Portmerion” allows “Beyond the Fells” to glide back down to Earth, revealing the album’s biggest surprise—a vocal track!It seems fitting given their past, that the first vocals on a Noveller record would be delivered by the legendary Iggy Pop.

Bergsonist emerges on Dark Entries with Depths, a genre-bending 12-track LP of atmospheric and rhythmic excursions. For more than a decade, Moroccan-born Selwa Abd has been using the Bergsonist moniker to examine postcolonial identity and speculative temporalities across disparate media, including sound, image, video, and installation. She is also a key figure in New York underground music, fostering mutual aid and community support through her platforms Pick up the Flow (PUTF) and BizaarBazaar. On the 2025 album ASL أصل ⴰⵙⵍ, Bergsonist explored her Amazigh heritage using field recordings captured in Morocco. With Depths, her sixth LP, she continues the project of ancestral reconnection through sound. Abd notes: “I really use making music as therapy, not as a precious act, more as an energy release that makes me feel alive.” Depths overflows with this excess of vitality. Tracks like “Trust the Current”, “Depths”, and “Underwater World Pursuit” showcase her singular take on diasporic techno-futurism, where James Stinson-esque atmospherics meet Moroccan rhythms. Elsewhere, “Again” and “Higher” push into coldwave territory, with icy arpeggios and electroid beats dancing beneath Abd’s ethereal vocals. But the dancefloor is not to be neglected: “Breakthrough” and “Ode to Life” spring forth with the kind of skewed peak-hour energy that only Bergsonist can bring. Artwork for Depths was designed by Eloise Leigh, and incorporates photographs by Abd and Greg Zifcak taken in Morocco. Also included is a protection poster that features an Amazigh symbol used for warding off the evil eye. Depths is an album that achieves a...

For over 30 years, Simon Joyner has been an anomaly--a wholly independent artist focused solely on his craft. The Omaha-based singer-songwriter began releasing music in the early ‘90s and has walked an unbroken line ever since. Joyner’s songs of quiet joy and heartache have impacted different generations of fellow artists, showing up as overt influence in acts like Bright Eyes or Kevin Morby, and as flickers of shared perspectives in the Lenkers, Oldhams, and Molinas that followed.Tough Love, Joyner’s 19th studio album, continues this upward trend. While intrinsically linked to the personal grief of 2024’s Coyote Butterfly, the autobiographical album Joyner made in the wake of his son’s death, this new album explores the concept of tough love as a dichotomy applied to various fictional relationships including romantic, familial, and political. This balancing act comes through in vivid portrayals of everyday heartache and in the exploration of political rage and the betrayals of the American Dream.One of the marvels of Joyner’s catalog is how his patterns don’t repeat but transform. Knowing nods to Cohen, Dylan, and the Velvets have been part of his songwriting since the early lo-fi days, but the ways these touchstones get infused keep changing. While Joyner’s ragged acoustic songs are in the spotlight, they’re prodded by electric guitars and imbued with experimental tendencies. Rock songs split the difference between minimal grooves learned from Loaded-era Velvet Underground and the ecstatic rhythmic weirdness of Can. By the time we arrive at the penultimate track, “Anniversary Song,” the ghost...

And what would a covers record from a French artiste be without paying respect to Mssr. Jacques Dutronc? His 1968 classic "L'augmentation" gets a 21st century rub-down to loosen up the kinks, and emerges revitalized for a daring new scene. The real madness, however, lies at the end of the programme, with an inverted version of “One Step Beyond” knocking the record’s concept on its head, as this 2 TONE classic is stripped of its syncopated nuttiness, summoned back to its roots, and emerges born again as pure rhythm‘n’beat. And this, fellow punk rudes, is how we’re demanding our rock’n’roll be delivered today… COPASETIC AND INTENSIFIED!

***Corum’s Web of Midnight traces an astral cartography and psychic linkage between the psychosexual laboratories of Wilhelm Reich’s Orgonon in Rangely, Maine all the way to the Mount Teide Volcano on the Canary Islands. Different facets of the album were recorded in these charged locations causing the music to erupt with an orgasmic and volcanic force, a subconscious blast and discharge of etheric earth energy channeled through shimmering electronica.Babbling voices that speak in the babel tongues of diverse holy spirits bring the listener into a sacred communion with the spiders of the void, spiders who weave their webs beyond the mauve zone in a realm of outerplanetary darkness. As the record spins so does the silk. Translucent sonic threads connect across vast distances in the dreamtime where they each receive stellar vibrations, now penetrating the earth from the deepest recesses of space.This space music could be considered dark ambient or kosmiche, and like the distant cosmic reaches of the universe it is suitably “out there” to please the discerning tastes of brave psychonautic listeners. Seekers who have previously used Corum’s music as fuel for their own remote viewing reconnaissance missions will find this outing as entrancing as his other explorations. Web of Midnight is a soundtrack for inward travel, destinations unknown.Even as the music voyages across the celestial empyrean of space, he opens up new territory, diving downwards into the underworld where the mysteries of Orpheus (poet, musician, prophet) are encountered in their cavernous depths. Here the Orphic lyre is...

***Twelve years in the making, a new record by Portland's idiosyncratic master of ultra modern folk music Dragging An Ox Through Water. Old school electronic oscillations and blips meet solid guitar playing and singing. The lyrics alone are worth the price of admission. Nothing obvious is ever said and every word gleens with layers of meaning. Dragging An Ox Through Water is Brian Mumfords' cult long running art music project. Beloved in Portland. Willfully underground. The real stuff. A modern masterpiece.

Overjoyed to announce the release of this monumental record featuring two very different sides of the free-improv coin. This intergenerational, wide-minded split LP blurs the hedges of national borders and the traditions of composition, marking a niche interzone inhabited solely by the uncles of punk and their experimental stepchildren. Canadian noise pioneers, Nihilist Spasm Band, deliver a ripping side-long opus rife with their singular blend of hi-octane kazoo, invented instruments and propulsive, arrhythmic drumming. This deep cut is likely to be the final NSB recording released featuring the late great vocalist Bill Exley, who passed away in 2025 after performing as a Nihilist for exactly 60 years. On the flipside, K/S/R screw the tempo down to their patented desert crawl pulse and lock the door behind them. Departing from the interstellar density of the trio’s 2025 Already in Heaven LP, the side-long treatise of An American Sonnet brandishes the group’s minimalist approach heard during recent performances across the United States. A plein air structure of ascetic interplay locates K/S/R carving sonic terrane from the space between notes, where each gesture is ascertained both as an individual voice and a building block of the collective. 180-gram mixed color vinyl, edition of 245. Co-released with Physical.

***"Amish Records is pleased to announce the first recorded collaboration between David Watson and Bill Nace, entitled On Bats.Historically, ensembles combining taishōgoto and bagpipes (at least inside the milieu of “jazz”) have been on the tame side. The Winkler Twins, Dagnabbit, CUZ and other such units pandered to the bowtie set so exclusively that many people have all but dismissed the instruments as hopelessly moldy or even (in the words of critic Milo Fine) “tools of fascism and complacency.” That said, it is my pleasure to announce that the duo of William “Bill” Nace and Dave “David” Watson has made a mighty effort hereon to liberate these instruments from the yoke of yokelism.Nace is a Philadelphia-based wizard of avant-string tomfoolery with a recording history stretching back to Vampire Belt (with Chris Corsano) in the early Oughts. Watson is an NYC-based New Zealand ex-pat whose multi-instrumental genius was first evidenced with the Primitive Art Group in the '80s. Now, with On Bats, the pair have set out to right the wrongs of generations of the dull ass taishōgoto/bagpipes artists who preceded them.The taishōgoto is, of course, a Japanese stringed instrument perhaps best described as a cross between a zither and a typewriter. Bagpipes are...well...pipes with a bag attached. Using their respective instruments to create both long-form tones and berserk machine-like squeedles, Nace and Watson create a varied and surreal aural landscape that shifts contours and colors with ease. The way they combine voices here often manifests as a sonic analogy to...

“There’s an irony inherent in the term ‘postpunk.’ Many of the groups that define the genre (think Pere Ubu or Cabaret Voltaire) existed for several years before punk. But these outfits had little hope of finding an audience until punk stirred up an appetite for the extreme, while also spawning a new breed of independent labels that could support challenging music.“This Heat are a prime example. Formed in early 1976 by drummer Charles Hayward, guitarist Charles Bullen and ‘non-musician’ Gareth Williams, the group were initially unaware of what was brewing elsewhere in London, yet they were driven by similar impulses: to make noise expressive of the era’s turbulence. Instead of punk’s crude reduction of rock ’n’ roll, This Heat took their bearings from expansive inspirations: free jazz, Captain Beefheart, musique concrète, and reggae’s disorienting dub techniques.“Vital to their evolution was Cold Storage, a disused meat fridge in Brixton where the band rehearsed. Produced by This Heat with David Cunningham and Anthony Moore, their 1979 debut was collaged out of cassette tapes and recordings made during ultra-cheap graveyard shifts at The Workhouse. The jump-cuts in sound quality were deliberately designed to make the album more unsettled and jarring.“The first two principles of This Heat’s mission statement—‘All possible processes. All channels open.’—could have been co-signed by many pre-punk experimentalists. It’s the third part—‘24 hour alert.’—that makes This Heat archetypally post-punk, crystallizing the ‘totally-wired’ mood of paranoid vigilance they shared with peers like Scritti Politti and The Pop Group. Soft power—the mind-control of...

After six years of purgatorial sway, Joel Shanahan’s Auscultation project returns with a fourth full-length of dazzling, convex electronics: IV. His signature production touches have only heightened in the interim: iridescent synths; dexterous bass; slinky networks of pads and percussion; regal, rolling fog. Icy bangers of isolation and beauty crafted over long Pacific Northwest winters of endless rain. The album evolved fitfully, polished and shelved between bursts of inspiration and malaise. This push and pull gives the music a manic, mirror ball, mood-swing movement, tilting between reverie and regret and sweaty abandon. Seven songs of memory and mirrors, haunted by shadows of the past but dreaming of futures still liquid, and unions yet to come. Mastered by Alex Nagle. Design by Britt Brown.

With their third album Projections, UK doom metal juggernaut Godthrymm have completed their Visions Trilogy begun with 2020’s their Reflections debut album and followed with 2023’s acclaimed Distortions. During the band’s discourse since the release of Reflections, Godthrymm have been recognized as the new emerging band from the UK to bring back the glorious aura of early-mid ‘90s UK doom metal, most notably formulated by the Peaceville Three (My Dying Bride, Paradise Lost, Anathema). As expected, considering the band was formed and helmed by UK doom metal veteran Hamish Glencross (ex-My Dying Bride / Vallenfyre / Solstice) and features doom metal drummer extraordinaire Shaun Taylor-Steels (ex-My Dying Bride / Anathema / Solstice). So in this sense, the classic UK doom metal DNA has already been implemented within their sonic fabric. Projections sees Godthrymm continue to develop and broaden their sound even further, building upon the cornerstones of Distortions. Now with an expanded lineup which includes keyboardist co-vocalist Catherine Glencross, bassist Bob Crolla and new second guitarist Kris McLaughin, Projections is their most layered, varied and complex release yet, all while still upholding the colossal emotionally charged heavy doom backbone that has defined the core of the band’s sound.

***Knock Knock is a celebrated Sacramento indie-pop/rock band known for their infectious, sunny 1970s-AM-radio-inspired sound, often described as a mix of folky acoustic rhythms, sharp surf-rock guitars (think Pixies), and danceable beats. Active for over twenty years, the group became a staple of the local Sacramento scene, often releasing new material every few years between weddings, child births, and divorces. Knock Knock is lead by “cool youth pastor” turned NPR donor Allen Maxwell (Vocals / Bass). Compromising this man’s vision are the married guitar duo Mike Cinciripino (Lead Guitar) and Heather Conway (Vocals / Rhythm Guitar). Every band needs a at least one actual musician. Knock Knock does better than one and provides two: Christine Shelly (Drums) and Dylan Barnes (Keys). Knock Knock's music is often marked by upbeat melodies that contrast with deeper, sometimes existential themes in their lyrics, described as "apocalyptic musings" that deal with personal, emotional crises. Night School / Night Shift is Knock Knock’s 4th long play record and is released by Sacramento Records. Recorded by Pat Hill’s (Bastards of Young; Earthtone Studios) and Ted Angel (Mr. T Experience). All tracks were mastered by the late and great Patrick Haight.

Indian Talking Machine: 78 RPM Record and Gramophone Collecting on the Sub-Continent VOL 2
Sublime Frequencies
***This double LP of instrumental Hindustani, Carnatic and folk 78rpm shellac records from India comes with a full color 12-page insert of gramophone record ephemera, shops, labels, manufacturing details and graphics. The LPs feature over 25 artists recorded between 1904 and 1959 playing a panoply of instruments: jalatarang, dilruba, sarod, clarionet, pakhawaj, violin, been, kazoo, shehnai, tabla, sarangi, sitar, vina and more. Artists include Imdad Khan (the first sitarist ever recorded), Ahmedjan Thirkhawa, Bundu Khan, Amir Hussain, Allauddin Khan (who taught Ravi Shankar), and others both forgotten and revered. The Indian classical instrumental tradition is one of incredible proficiency and expressiveness using instruments and techniques created over generations that seem to perfectly and uniquely compliment Indian culture, landscape and tradition. Sympathetic strings resonate inside sitars and sarangis to manifest shimmering reverberant spiritual spaces; horns, reeds and flutes extend the range, volume and melodic inventiveness of the voice; a mind-boggling array of elaborately turned percussion instruments allow for rhythms as complex or as simple as the flowing Ganges River. Classical music in India was perhaps at its height during the 78rpm period as the raj era was ending and the world was globalizing. 2LP gatefold with 12-page full color booklet insert. Produced by Robert Millis (Climax Golden Twins/Victrola Favorites) and features never reissued recordings and is the long-anticipated follow up to the Indian Talking Machine book/CD (Sublime Frequencies 099), which was also produced by Millis from his collection of 78rpm records and ephemera.

Philip Glass, the great American composer, was already in his mid-30s before his first album appeared, and then only because he produced the double LP himself. Music With Changing Parts was the inaugural release on his own Chatham Square imprint in 1971.At this point, Einstein on the Beach, Glass’ first opera, was still five years away. Yet in Changing Parts, one can already hear much of his vocabulary in full bloom: the buoyant arpeggios, the melding of electronic and acoustic instruments, the elongated drones of human voice, the primary emphasis on pulse (an interest he shared with fellow composer Steve Reich) and the ecstatic potential inherent in repetition.The album features the original Philip Glass Ensemble—the composer himself, along with Jon Gibson, Dickie Landry, Art Murphy, Steve Chambers and Robert Prado—playing Farfisa organs and woodwinds as well as Barbara Benary on electric violin.As Glass describes in his memoir Words Without Music, he secured a $500 interest-free loan for the recordings’ initial release from the Hebrew Free Loan Society—an organization intended to help immigrants from the Old World upon arrival in the US. Though Glass was merely the grandson of immigrants, the venture wasn’t far off the society’s charter as Changing Parts helped usher in a new world of sound that would become known as Minimalism.Chatham Square went on to release albums by other composers in Glass’ circle, including Gibson and Landry. The label was named after the Manhattan intersection where Landry had a studio and the ensemble rehearsed.Born in Baltimore in...

***"Hounslow: a seemingly unassuming town with a storied history. Birthplace of MF DOOM. Final destination of the northbound 281 bus. And once upon a time, the stomping ground of beloved post- punks, Scissor Fits. Formed in 1978, with a stripped- down, spiky DIY sound as their sonic template, the band recorded their legendary debut EP ‘Taught? Tense? Angular? And Other British Rail Sandwiches’ before they'd even played a live gig. An instant classic featuring arch but relatable ditties such as 'I Don't Wanna Work For British Airways', 'I Wish I Hadn't Shaved My Pubic Hair Off' and 'Waiting For Your Love In The Shower' the EP garnered glowing press and the inevitable support of John Peel. A second EP 'Soon After Dark' was released in 1979, which found the band adding a poppy, quasi- psychedelic twist to their now beefed-up sound, and a superb final recording from the same era could easily have made up a third EP. In the tradition of so many punky posses of their time however, the Fits called it quits after just two fabulous singles, burning brightly and briefly, and their legacy is now captured here on this career-spanning compilation. Featuring both the band's EPs, plus four sumptuous previously unreleased tracks, this is the definitive Scissor Fits article. Dive in."—(Ed Zed, Strange Flesh)

Recent works by West Mass ritualist Secret Places of the Lion have explored a fusion of orphic synthetics and MIDI machinery, but Saturn Fern documents the project’s primordial origins in dosed tarot electric guitar. Recorded across 2012 and 2013 between a garage deep in the desolate woods of Belchertown and a New Haven apartment above a North African garden café, the process was acidic, smoky, nocturnal, and improvised. Long-form guitar traced in FX and braided into loose loops, dusted with keys, the collection’s nine tracks were captured in single takes straight to a field recorder. In the artist’s words: “Field recordings from the deep field.” Mastered by Jared Carrigan. Design by Britt Brown.

Sons of Freedom is the culmination of a decade-long fascination with idyllic new wave library music. After retiring his ethnographic tropical ambient project Coconut Dealers in 2012, Konstantin Shkolnikov found himself drawn to a different muse: Essential Key. Across a series of self-released digital collections, the vision streamlined and solidified into a palette of soft rock licks, fretless bass, and 80’s drum machinery, in a sheen of velvet tape hiss. Inspired equally by Japanese prog, Patrick Cowley, AOR obscurities, and “the joy of life,” the album’s 10 instrumentals flow with cohesive leisure, warm and wood-paneled, spiked with sleek funk. It’s music for cruising, surfing, and soaring, on wind or water, in fantasies past or memories not yet made. Mastered by Jared Carrigan. Design by Britt Brown.

***Even as the primary torchbearers for Detroit’s underrepresented pop factions, Deadbeat Beat remain on a path apart. The band has evolved gradually, growing deeper musically and intellectually around a core of immediate songwriting and always landing outside of standard indie rock parameters. This difference and the growth within it are both in full view on From Here to Ohio, the group’s third album and first substantial work since 2020’s How Far. It’s a powerful wave of songs that hit instantaneously, even as the band takes new risks with composition, instrumentation, and the vulnerability of saying more.The things that have always been great about Deadbeat Beat are still great. Sprouting from a teenage friendship that grew into a musical practice between drummer/vocalist Maria Nuccilli and guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Alex Glendening, the band has long lived in the precarious and holy intersection of garage rock drive and indie pop catchiness. Rounded out by the understated melodic bass playing of Zak Frieling, the songs became their own brand of dualistic excitement; ragged and nervy enough to dance to mindlessly in the basement house show, but never far from the melancholia and neurotic jangle of the most introverted Flying Nun band. Those basic building blocks are still in place here. The guitars are still clean (but not too clean), the rhythms are still snappy and uncluttered, and tight vocal harmonies still beam out like unbroken lines on a freshly repaved highway to somewhere better. Even if heard from a muffled distance, From Here to Ohio would...

***Recorded live on location, this is a style of music unlike anything you have ever heard before and the first album of the Himba people's music ever released from northwest Namibia. From the album's producer and recordist, Ian Brennan: "The Namib desert is the oldest in the world. Therefore, the driest. Italian-Rwandan photographer, Marilena Umuhoza Delli and I had come to record with possibly the most photographed people on earth, the Himba—to listen rather than gaze at them as if on display. To share their voices as a counter to their visual objectification, particularly the inappropriate eroticization of the women who customarily go topless throughout daily life. We had to stress multiple times that we did not want the musicians to don touristic tribal costumes—quite possibly the first music project in history that urged performers to cover-up rather than pleading with artists to expose more flesh. But it was to no avail. When the assigned hour arrived, the men all ditched the baseball caps and soccer jerseys that they routinely wear. And for the women, the reality is that they almost without exception keep their torsos bare, even in winter. We had to acquiesce. Forcing the issue would have only been the flipside of inauthenticity. The featured, traditional instrument is the Cattle Gun. It's rarely found these days and therefore, costly. Made from the lengthy horn of an Oryx and coated in mud, it is blown, resulting in a breathy, rattled tone. Via the use of live looping on three...

***The Four Eyes are a long-standing Sacramento "budget rock" band, recognized for their endurance in the local scene alongside bands like The Bananas, NAR and The Trouble Makers. Their recordings, particularly on Secret Center Records, are noted for a comically lo-fi sound, sometimes described as "listening with a pillow over your head.”The Four Eyes are fronted by diamond-in-the-rough-crooner Joel Goulet and backed by the fact-based and austere rhythm section of drummer Jay Baker and bass-machine player Dave Ninja. Although originating from the coastal college town of Santa Cruz, they are mantel barriers of what some call “the Sacramento sound.”Now for the real question: What is Earth 2025 you might ask? Well, Earth 2025 is a turn based, text based internet video game created in 1996. The game brings together tens thousands of players in an interactive gaming environment that's addictive, entertaining, and engaging.

***Musique Pour La Danse presents The Unreleased Themes From Hellraiser (Expanded Ritual) by Coil. Back in 1987, Clive Barker's supernatural body-horror classic Hellraiser hit cinemas worldwide and introduced audiences to the demonic Cenobites. Barker was a devoted Coil fan (Peter Christopherson and John Balance ), and he famously said they were the only band he'd ever heard on record whose music he'd had to take off because, in his words, "they made his bowels churn." He initially invited them to compose the film's music, and the group began recording cues. But the producers at New World Pictures ultimately rejected the material in favor of a more traditional approach, bringing in Christopher Young, whose final score remains excellent, if less experimental. What remains from Coil is an unfinished soundtrack with surviving fragments and rough ideas, abruptly left behind mid-process, a glimpse into an alternate Hellraiser movie. Nearly 40 years later, key long-term collaborators and Coil's "secret third member" Danny Hyde located the original Hellraiser studio session tapes, and the bonus material recovered from them is presented here as an "Expanded Ritual" edition, reassembled into a standalone, possibly definitive and strangely beautiful nightmare suite. Play it in the dark and experience the consequences of raising hell. Notes by Danny Hyde. Original artwork by Trevor Brown.

***BACK IN PRINT!!! Received an 8.3 Best New Reissue rating from Pitchfork. Black Editions present the first ever vinyl edition of Tokyo Flashback, the legendary 1991 compilation that defined the Tokyo psychedelic movement and first brought it to the outside world. Tokyo Flashback is one of the most iconic compilations in the history of underground music. Originally released by Japan's P.S.F. Records, Tokyo Flashback defined the breathtakingly unique and previously obscured musical movement that had been developing in Japan since the late 1970s. The compilation features some of the earliest released recordings by KEIJI HAINO, HIGH RISE, MASAKI BATOH's GHOST, WHITE HEAVEN, FUSHITSUSHA , KOUSOKUYA, and MARBLE SHEEP. It captures the excitement and energy of a Tokyo awash in Technicolor and deep blacks; the music echoing krautrock, psychedelic freak-outs, garage, and no wave. At the same time it reveals astonishing, totally idiosyncratic expansions of rock music. In time, Tokyo Flashback expanded to a synonymous nine volume series that, over the following two decades, unveiled Japan's ever evolving soundscapes to the rest of the world. Tokyo Flashback is a defining statement of late 20th century Japanese psychedelic music and an essential primer to the world of P.S.F. All tracks are exclusive, this edition features the first time translation of the original liner notes.

***For more than three decades, Go Hirano has developed a quietly enthralling sound world on the peripheries of the Japanese underground. Emerging in the 1990s, Hirano released three albums with the revered PSF Records label and established himself as an artist with a unique sense of melody and atmosphere that was both entrancing and intimate. His work, largely recorded at home and in the field, de-emphasized technical perfection in favor of an unvarnished immediacy that imbued the quiet moments of daily life with a dreamlike splendor. On The Habit, Hirano brings together recordings that span decades of his playing the piano and other instruments on a daily basis. The core of the album was recorded in 2020 at Pianola Records in Tokyo, while other pieces draw from recordings dating as far back as the late 1980s. Through this span of years, a coherent vision emerges, marked by patient, subtle engagement with repetition, space, and resonance. Hirano works with a restrained palette—piano, pianica, wind chime, percussion, and synthesizer—to develop simple melodic figures that gradually shift in harmony and texture. Spacious piano chords expand through soft synthesizer tones. Near-imperceptible rhythmic frameworks intertwine with tranquil phrases that drift and merge with the sounds of the world around them. This synthesis of music and the environment in which it is created is critical to Hirano's approach. Rather than isolating the music from its surroundings, he embraces the atmosphere of the moment, the room in which each piece is played, capturing the subtle sounds and...

A best for all the music lovers of ‘70s sound! In the Ethiopian musical landscape, Mulatu Astatke is a unique musician, a composer, an arranger. His real contribution lives in its action for the instrumental music, in a country where the orchestral traditions did not exist. For more than 30 years, he is the door flag of the Ethiopian music.

Known as the vocalist of Boy Harsher, Matthews channels the nocturnal spirit of the original while making the song distinctly her own.Released as a limited-edition 12" on Heartworm Press, the single transforms the underground favorite into a late-night anthem, with the B-side featuring an extended remix by Los Angeles duo Spike Hellis, stretching the track into a driving, synth-charged club version.

Austin’s creepiest bad boys are back!After a few years of wandering in the wilderness, Drakulas return to their spiritual home at Dirtnap Records (and Wild Honey Records in Europe/UK!) to unleash Midnight City upon the world!Drakulas move in the shadows of a neoned, late‑’70s city—proto‑punk bite, garage grit, ’80s synth ghosts and new‑wave chill wrapped in world-building, nocturnal lyrics.Conceived as an art experiment by Savage Lord Mic, Sam Francisco (Riverboat Gamblers) and Pink Rick (Rise Against), and filled out with a rotating cast of sketchy characters, Drakulas quickly shed their daylight skins—black turtlenecks, medallions, VHS flicker—and became emissaries of a cinematic underworld where drugs, arcade lights, pornography and occult whispers score the streets.Their 3rd LP, Midnight City turns up the musical quirk factor a bit, with fully-realized, inter-connected songs that are at the same time unsettling and yet weirdly danceable. Marvel as they emerge from the fog with a new full‑length on Dirtnap/Wild Honey—listen if you dare.

Evolution can be ugly and beautiful, painful and euphoric. An Undying Love For A Burning World is the first new release from Neurosis in a decade, and a potent statement of intent and rebirth - one that marks the first new steps of resolve and resilience. An Undying Love For A Burning World is an epic album of colossal hypnotism - beautiful, fearsome and utterly compelling in a way that only Neurosis can be. Aaron Turner (Sumac, Isis) joins the band on vocals and guitar, a name whose legacy is intertwined with the band’s own and a true kindred spirit. Neurosis have never been afraid of change, and here they embrace endless regeneration, surrendering to the emotional exorcism through heaviness and distortion that their music incites. Just as the universe tends towards balance, Neurosis’ cacophony of noise, rhythm and dissonance always resolves towards moments of beauty. The addition of Turner's powerful vocals and wildly creative and unhinged approach to guitar proves to be a vital force as Neurosis find themselves again at the mercy of evolution and expression. The album was recorded by Scott Evans (Kowloon Walled City, Sumac, and Great Falls) at Studio Litho in Seattle during three weekends this winter, and mixed in three days just six weeks before release at Evan's Antisleep Audio in Oakland. Neurosis will play their first show in seven years on the traditional lands of the Blackfeet Nation in Montana as part of Fire in the Mountains festival by special invitation of Firekeeper...

The epitome of a modern artist, Jana Bahrich does most things herself, no matter how painstaking—writing, producing, directing, often hand painting t-shirts the day of shows when the band have run out of merch. This has helped give her band Francis of Delirium a unique identity, with her rock confessionals breathing a new life in to the genre and her paintings creating a striking design aesthetic.Released as she was finishing high school, 2020’s single 'Quit Fucking Around’ was a great introduction and it remains one of her most enduring songs. Shortly after it’s release, she signed to artist-first indie Dalliance Recordings (Gia Margaret, HighSchool, lilo) and three EPs—All Change (2020), Wading (2021), The Funhouse (2022) and a striking debut album - Lighthouse (2024)—on and Jana has Francis of Delirium flying.While the EP’s fizzed with promise, her debut album Lighthouse landed its punches. Seeking a more vulnerable and open sonic palette, she wove in pop elements to create anthems that celebrated heartbreak and love. Lead singles ‘Real Love’ and ‘First Touch’ were the first tracks she made with an outsider - working with GRAMMY winning producer Catherine Marks (boygenius, The Killers, Wolf Alice)—while the rest of the album was produced by Jana herself and day one collaborator Chris Hewett. The critics were impressed too—“Bahrich’s choruses, almost every one, are lumpin-your-throat gorgeous.” NME; “Jana Bahrich seems too young for this tremendous debut’s ambitious anthems.” Uncut; “A rewarding experience that captures a talented, young artist at the crossroads between adolescence and adulthood."

***Born in the ashes of WWII, the only girl of seven children, they called her Pinky. She grew up in the windy plains of the Texas panhandle, singing in the church choir and dreaming of being on the stage one day. Just 18, she met the love of her life and soon married rodeo cowboy Cole Tex. Sharing a common thirst for adventure, they traveled the country roads together. He wrote the songs and Pinky sang them, performing in small roadhouses and honky-tonks all over the southwestern states. These are some of the few recordings that still exist.

A wave of lunar heaviosity, My Death Is More Beautiful Than Your Life is the sophomore album from the duo of drummer Andee Connors (A Minor Forest, Common Eider, King Eider, P.E.E., J-Church, aQuarius recOrds) and synth / electronics / vocalist Marc Kate (I Am Spoonbender, Never Knows), delivering another slab of their signature tectonic synth-doom. In spite of what appears to be a spare sound pallette and dispensing with the use of guitar and bass, MHAIF's sound is utterly immense and wrought in dark emotional intensity, sprawling across nearly eighty minutes of morose slow-motion grandeur. The ten songs lumber through the duo's signature haze of electronic luminescence and earth-shifting percusion, crafting each one into a massive slab of ultra-heavy glacial drift. It would be too simple to describe this as "drone metal"—My Heart, An Inverted Flame evoke a moonswept ambience that offers something more lush and radiant, lending moments of dreamlike beauty to the gravitational crush. Likewise, this transcends the banner of doom metal; while Connors flattens everything in sight with his colossal sledgehammer drumming, the blown-out electronic textures of Kate's synthesizers and FX delirium pulls the sound into a kind of cosmos-devouring psychedelia, with swells of saturated cinematic majesty billowing across the rupturing percussive dirge.The drums thunder in the deep, laying down monumental backbeat awash in swirling, squealing, searing electronic noise and howling Berlin School-esque melodic forms. But they also roll and stutter monstrously, Connors rending the blackness with sudden bursts of seemingly freeform power as often as...

PRIMITIVE RING consists of Bert Hoover (bass/vocals), Charles Moothart (guitar/vocals), and Jon Modaff (drums). The Los Angeles power trio formed in September 2024 when Hoover and Moothart came together seeking a new creative outlet. In 2025, the band released four 7"s on four different labels (Greenway, In the Red, Reverberation Appreciation Society, and Fuzz Club UK). They hauled amps and drums into bars to hone the sound of the newfound brotherhood that is Primitive Ring. Rock and roll is in its essence a primal experience, and the name reflects that. Three individuals collide and egos rattle, shedding layers and growing new limbs. Archetypes flash to the rhythm of a freight train and the crown is passed hand to hand like a good luck charm, symbolic and communal. Rock and roll is for the people and Primitive Ring is for the taking. At least it will be when the band's debut LP is hurled into the future via In the Red Recordings.Primitive Ring is 11 tracks coming in just under 42 minutes. It was recorded by Mark Rains in December of 2025 at The Station House in Echo Park. The album is the genesis story of a lightning bolt flashing in the eternal drama of creation and destruction. The album showcases the distinct writing styles of each member, but the overall aesthetic is a woven tapestry demarcating the timeless meridian. The record is the spawning of a collective vision. This is something we all share, and we must remind one another...

***The Early Music Vol. 1’ by Black Swan Network is a collection of songs and sketches by Elephant 6 co-founder Will Cullen Hart written between the hiatus of The Olivia Tremor Control in 1999 and before the formation of Circulatory System in 2000. Side A features tracks from the HHBTM Records 7" singles club single and side B features 8 tracks from those same sessions that have been unreleased until now. The Early Music Vol. 1 tells a story of an artist working through a million ideas via a 4 track blending textures and tiny melodies pulling from ambient soundscapes and field recordings while working out tiny vocal melodies falling between the baroque psychedelic pop of his previous Olivia Tremor Control work and the long ambient minimalist passages of The Black Swan Network. These songs would be the blueprint for the start of Will's next project Circulatory System. These songs will feel different in each place and way you play them. The label heavily suggests listening loudly through speakers, through headphones, and once using the download card play them through your computer and in your car. Each listening experience will bring different elements to the forefront. This release is being pressed on black vinyl with no banding between tracks and being meant to be listened to as one continuous side.

Just as you were getting your head straight coming off the 21st Trip … Brown Acid dose # 22 drops, continuing to fry your mind in a revolving trap-door Twilight Zone alternate world of early hard rock… populated by real life characters so far out they can look like a cheesy wedding band but sound like Blue Cheer! Uncanny! This music comes at you from many angles. Teens in a garage colliding with booze, drugs and girls for the first time, lounge lizard hustlers with snazzy stage clothes and fuzz boxes… gnarly backwoods troublemakers meet blow dried glam rock wannabes here, seamlessly clobbering your head with sound rather than each other! An electric post-psychedelic bar brawl for your mind awaits, unfasten your seat belt, crank it up and fly!Sounds Synonymous "Babylon" out of Flint, Michigan 1969 rip the devastating Blue Cheer classic a new one, immediately swarming you with organ swells and distortion before collapsing into a tuff funk groove, a psychedelic James Brown vibe shot through with dirty howling fuzz guitar, vocals nailing the messed up but confident relaxed sneering attitude of the original Cheer eruption.The Bumps "Shining" from Seattle 1969 resides right at the transition of ‘60s psych into early prog, well constructed, no diluting things artsy fartsy style, a compelling heavy riff, spacious vocal harmony hook floating above a turbulent take on getting your shit together and shining like a star.

Lauren Lakis makes songs that are steeped in darkness, but inside of them is a sense of hope. They are propelled by the possibility of emerging on the other side feeling less alone and fully transformed. On her debut album Deadlights, set for release on Riding Easy Records on May 8, 2026, she conjures a shifting reality—one defined by both distortion and clarity. Indebted to shoe gaze and ’90s alt rock, its 10 tracks are filled with ethereal vocals, melodic guitars, and a heavy low end. It’s inspired by groups like Deftones and Hole, powerful bands that explore the emotional bottom but are able to rise from the depths. Lakis was born in Baltimore, where she was raised by her single mother. As she grew up, she lost multiple family members and friends to addiction. She became an actor and a photographer, trying to capture the human experience with each endeavor. Her travels led to stints living in Prague and Tokyo, before she moved to Los Angeles. In 2016 she endured a horrible breakup, and then her mother was in a car accident that left her paralyzed. Though Lakis was already singing in a band at the time, these life-altering events motivated her to focus on writing and recording her own music. “When you're in a place of total surrender, you are able to get out of your own way and finally do the thing you want to do,” she says. After the car accident, Lakis’s mother’s health deteriorated, and...

***Memorie Di Occhi Grigi, the new 12" from Italian provocateurs PSICO GALERA, is an 8-track onslaught of dissonant experimentation, unhinged and unpredictable guitar solos, pounding drums, and raw, uncompromising energy, with vocals alternating between distorted shouts and pitched effects reminiscent of early G.I.S.M., slicing through chaotic riffs to create a nihilistic, intense, and sick experience.Influenced by RKL’s Rock’n’Roll Nightmare era, the metallic and robotic edges of early Voivod, and the unstoppable force of Stinky Rats, late Negazione, and late Upset Noise, the record fuses Italian and US hardcore punk from the ’80s and ’90s with obscure Japanese influences such as Bitousha, Masturbation and Hog-Gish.The lyrics explore claustrophobic worlds of unstable minds, institutional violence, and social abandonment, oscillating between fractured self-reflection, guilt, frustration, and calculated revenge. Each track depicts raw, often unsettling scenarios, building a narrative that is intensely personal, universally disturbing, and brutally compelling.Dark, abrasive, and uncompromising, Memorie Di Occhi Grigi is a direct, fearless sonic manifesto.Psico Galera's vision is unfiltered, urgent, and clear-eyed, portraying a world where the annihilation of the individual looms relentlessly and oppressively.

***Sorry State presents Beyond Recognition, the debut 6-song 7” EP from Washington, DC’s Laughing Corpse. Laughing Corpse emerges from the same DC hardcore scene that has brought us so many great bands over the past few years, with members serving / having served time in Brain Tourniquet, Kombat, Corvo, Daunting Nightmare, Genocide Pact, and many more. While Laughing Corpse’s blistering execution hints at the members’ experience, the sound here is darker and uglier than you might expect, mired in the reckless, Void-influenced end of 80s hardcore. You can expect dramatic rhythmic shifts, desperate vocals, and guitars that frequently careen off-script into wild, noisy leads. Laughing Corpse drummer Connor Donegan is a transplant from Sorry State’s home base of Raleigh, North Carolina, and his roots show through with several nods to our city’s tradition of uniquely damaged hardcore, particularly the early eras of Corrosion of Conformity and Double Negative. You don’t need the backstory to appreciate this, though… just hit play at max volume and let Laughing Corpse level you.

***Sorry State presents Welcome to the Idiot Factory, the new 4-song EP from Raleigh punk lifers DE()T. While its members come from Raleigh’s fertile hardcore scene, DE()T’s ability to pummel is only part of their toolkit, with these four songs exploring the wider range of feelings that crop up when you’re on the wrong side of your 30s and life is still dealing you the same bullshit it did in your 20s. Vocalist Colin Swanson-White’s disaffected drawl evokes the post-human cool of Gary Numan or “Homosapien”-era Pete Shelley when he sings about life as a cog in the machine, but he can also let out a blood-curdling scream when things come to a head and powerhouse drummer Cameron Craig lays into his Vistalites. DE()T’s deft ensemble playing—honed over years of blowing touring bands off the stage here in Raleigh—further elevates these songs, whose inventive arrangements ride waves of loud/quite/loud as bassist Jeffrey Bechtel drags anchor across the bottom end and synthesist Matt Stone bleats out hooky melodies on top. These four anthems sound like no other band, yet still deliver a mighty dose of punk’s authentic, gut-punching impact.

Through brief and evocative pieces, the artist assembles textures, repetitive motifs, and melodic fragments to create an intimate and offbeat sonic universe.Each track acts like a captured moment—a small autonomous sonic world—where imagination, spontaneity, and sonic exploration take center stage. With its deliberate simplicity and free approach to the song form, Om-Om reflects Chloé Jara-Buto’s singular artistic vision: music that is sensitive, minimalist, and open to experimentation. Om-Om will appeal to fans of experimental pop in the vein of Broadcast and Stereolab. Includes previous Chloé’s compositions as a bonus.

***"We live in a world where the real and the fake are increasingly blurred. One where we are constantly under surveillance. Our lives scraped, commoditised, monetised. Every element feels like it has been specifically constructed to isolate and atomise, to ferment insecurity and to sow self-doubt. Comme Un Poignard (Like A Dagger) conjures this very unease, a life that feels as if it is bound in chains yet spinning out of control at the same time. Hailing from Bordeaux, and featuring both current and ex-members of Bombardement, Faucheuse (Reaper) are back with their second full-length and follow-up to 2024’s, Rêve Électrique (Electric Dream). As the title track erupts through the squalling feedback, the band’s trademarks are firmly in evidence—fiercely galloping d-beat riven through with a boisterous rock’n’roll swagger and brimming with buccaneering solos that strut that hazy line where blues and NWOBHM intertwine. It is though, perhaps, the vocals that remain at the very heart of their sound. Cleanly sung and robustly melodic, they call with equal vigour on both a punk urgency and a rich sense of pop drama. It is a frantically breathless yet tautly crafted ride as they sweep from the scuzzy melodicism of 'Pacte de Feu' (Fire Pact) to the frantically careering 'Météore' (Meteor). Before, Faucheuse throw an unexpected sidestep and bow out with the mournfully cascading organs and hauntingly reflective vocals of 'Etincelle' (Spark)."—Scott (Foundation Vinyl)

Revised artwork by Molly Smith with extensive liner notes from Arthur’s partner Tom Lee.Over twenty years ago, Audika Records began compiling and releasing the exceptionally varied, long sought-after music of Arthur Russell, and in the process has succeeded at helping the beloved late artist finder the broader audience he always believed he would reach. A new generation of listeners and critics has come to appreciate Russell as a visionary and an influence upon a broad range of today's most compelling musical artists.While much of the critical and popular affection for Russell's music has come about well after his untimely death from AIDS in 1992, many fellow artists believed in his genius and were drawn to collaborate with him during his lifetime. The legendary producer John Hammond (Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen) recorded Russell on several occasions; a number of these recordings now heard on Love Is Overtaking Me, along with songs recorded with various incarnations of The Flying Hearts, a group formed by Russell and Ernie Brooks whose shifting lineup included...

It's 1970 and this beast of an LP nails the moment psychedelic '60s haze faded into early bad ass hard rock. Edge take it other places as well, brief progressive flashes, medieval folk pop, even… ambitious and concise on every track. No excess baggage, killer arrangements shot through with ripping guitar, moody organ and hooks to spare. The Edge LP always pulled premium collector $$ and your ears will tell you why!Edge was formed by members from two L.A. bands that both had psychedelic pop LPs issued on the obscure Flick-Disc label in 1968, a 'hip' subsidiary of MGM. Richard Barcellona and John Keith from the American Revolution and David Novogroski from the Boston Tea Party along with Gallen Murphy make up the guitar/organ/bass/drums quartet lineup. Richard Barcellona is also responsible for the amazing lead guitar on the Seeds 1972 single "Shuckin'' and Jivin'", so this LP is Seeds related, always a notable detail when talking L.A. rock history.Cue it up and hold on to your seat, you're in for quite a ride during the next 28 minutes of your life!

Hailing from Denver, CO, fronted by Kalyn Rose Heffernan—a wheelchair using, profanely queer and tiny rapper, with a very distinctly high-pitched sense of humor. Backed by her gimp Greggy on drums, the band combines fantastic beats with an absolutely face shredding live show. Playing shows everywhere they could, the band has expanded into performance art, museum takeovers, politics, prison tours, permanent installations, theater, film, and now the release of their newest album, “Oh Imperfecta!” on Alternative Tentacles Records. They bring together contributions from Jello Biafra (twice), Radio Pete (who happened to come up with the name Dead Kennedys when Biafra was a teen in Boulder, CO, and this is their first time ever collaborating musically), Kimya Dawson (Moldy Peaches), Oliva Jean, Junia-T, Amy Goodman, and some honorary WSC members: Qknox, Michelle Rocqet, Wes Watkins, RAREBYRD$, and many more; to create 11 absolute bangers.

"The artist Tina Fulker (1954-1992) would be a bit of a mystery to most folks, myself included. A poet hailing from the UK, she is the author of 4 books of poems (Gash!, Skylight, Scrapbook, Jukebox) that are highly coveted amongst collectors of rare ephemera. Her recorded works seems to have come from those pages & this album collects the 8 tracks from her cassette release, 'Tender Hooks' (1986) + the five included on a V/A tape, 'Real Time 6' from 1983. With assistance from John Ramo (guitar) & Zenon Slawinski (electronics), Fuller's cadence both flickers & haunts around the the sparse, brilliantly executed arrangements. Zaius Tapes mastermind, Johan Klepp, says that he'd been listening to his copy of 'Tender Hooks' almost exclusively over the 2025 holidays & decided it needed a vinyl legacy, thus combining 'Tender Hooks' with the 'Real Time 6' recordings for this 'Collected Works' lp. Spoken word, lo-fi, minimal synth, glits of Suicide come to mind within these pieces, as does the early works of Anne Clark. Done in a paste-on edition jacket w/a pressing of 200, this is certainly release no one saw coming. Leave it to Zaius Tapes to make available something else we didn't know, but now need."—Anne Shirley, Bolingbroke, Nova Scotia

***Les Rallizes Dénudés returns with Disque 4 -’76 Studio et Live-, the latest in the ongoing series of official archival releases from the celebrated Japanese underground band.In 1991, Les Rallizes Dénudés released what would become the only official albums issued during the band’s lifetime: ’67-’69 STUDIO et LIVE, MIZUTANI / Les Rallizes Dénudés, and ’77 LIVE. What no one knew at the time was that Takashi Mizutani was already deep into preparing another record.Disque 4 reconstructs the track list Mizutani had put together for that fourth album. This includes the single “White Awakening," recorded in 1976 at the studio in Takadanobaba BIG BOX as part of the sessions that would become known among collectors as the “Virgin Demos.” Production and mastering of this archival release were handled once again by Makoto Kubota, assembling the album from the masters left behind by Mizutani, utilizing newly discovered tapes as additional sources.Prepared by Mizutani using a variety of formats, including U-Matic, open reel, and DAT, the tracks were originally labeled with working titles such as “Disque 4” and “Record No. 4,” indicating that Mizutani intended them for inclusion on a possible fourth album. The recordings were taken primarily from studio sessions that all seemed to have taken place around 1976, which aligns with the claim that Mizutani himself once made that “there exists an album of studio recordings made with the same members as ‘77 LIVE.” His notes also suggest an attempt to sequence the tracks as a vinyl LP, splitting them into...

Originally released in 2019, “The Congress of Teddy & The Rough Riders” is a full throttle, loose limbed blend of vintage honky-tonk and garage psych.“The band captures a melancholy wind that tousles the hair of the standard country crowd – ably picking at traditional tropes and applying requisite studio shine, while fitting in with the sunburst strums and pedal-steel melters of Mapache, James Matthew VII, and Tobacco City. The record’s bootlegger stomp and backporch ramble let it sink in and simmer without falling fate to any stereotypes that might befall a band with less inclusive tastes.”

Shedding the prism-light on the characters he meets in his songs, Frank also sings about the spiritual glory of the mountains and rivers of the Appalachian landscape he loves, psychedelically wound together over Frank’s intricate fingerpicking, soulful vocals, tender melodies, and transcendent vision.

***Dubs From The Neighbourhood—from New Zealand super producer Christoph El Truentro—takes us on a musical journey inspired by road trips through small towns, sunshine, secluded beaches and lush green landscapes. This is deep dub in the most classic of forms; taking cues from those that have come before while adding flourishes of a sonic palette completely new. While the idyllic scenery invoked on the cover is typically associated with a carefree joy, the album adds details and textures that nod to the inevitable flipside of grief and loss that are experienced alongside life's journeys. Named one of the 10 Best Albums of the Year by Rolling Stone Australia.

***In the nineties, Sammy checked all the indie‐rock boxes. The duo—East Village singer/guitarist Jesse Hartman and L.A. lead guitarist Luke Wood— released a lo‐fi debut on Smells Like records, the label run by Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley. They moved up to major‐label Geffen for their second LP, Tales of Great Neck Glory. And then it was over. Sammy left behind two LPs, an EP, and a legion of fans wondering what happened. Hartman went on to a well‐received solo career; Wood became a heavy hitter behind the scenes. Thirty years later, the pair are looking back on lives well lived and their wildest dreams realized. F. Scott Fitzgerald—whose best‐known novel incidentally takes place in Great Neck—once wrote, “There are no second acts in American lives.” The story of Sammy proves him wrong. 5x8 224 page paperback book. Includes 22 B&W photos. "The story of so many bands who didn’t quite break through, but came close enough to taste it. Jeff Gomez’s history of Sammy is well-researched, admirable, and clearly an act of love.”—Howard Fishman, author of To Anyone Who Ever Asks: The Life, Music, and Mystery of Connie Converse

***The debut EP from Bakersfield’s So Real is a five-track burst of emotive, indie rock that feels like it was pulled straight from a well-worn time capsule. It channels the late-’90s moment when bands like Broken Hearts Are Blue and The Get Up Kids shook everything up—when vulnerability met driving rhythms and changed the sound of underground rock for good. Call it Midwest Emo, call it heart-on-sleeve indie—either way, So Real carry that spirit proudly out of Bakersfield (and honestly, is that really a surprise?).These songs balance catharsis and movement: shimmering guitars, earnest vocals, and rhythms that make you want to sway, shout along, or finally step forward and ask that person to dance—even if you’re terrified to. It’s music for anyone who’s ever felt stuck between going out and staying home, between wanting connection and retreating into their room.

***Lead Blocks For Feet captures The Pine in a formative moment, pushing outward while beginning to settle into a sound that feels distinctly their own. While previous releases drew heavily from the California emo landscape, the band takes a darker turn here, experimenting with folk-inspired songwriting and introducing the character-driven storytelling that would help define their sound: fast, loud, distorted, and heartfelt.Back in print for the first time in over twenty years, this edition is packaged in a gatefold sleeve and remastered with care.

***Days Slipping By is the third album from Bakersfield’s The Pine and marks the point where the band reaches their fully realized form. With the introduction of their permanent drummer, the band settled into a core lineup, allowing for a greater sense of focus and cohesion, resulting in what became their defining work. While their previous album pushed outward and explored new lanes, this record pulled everything into place and refined the sound while carrying the same fast, loud, and melodic intensity. It’s heartbroken, lost, a document of what it’s like to look at the world through new eyes when everything changes and you’re left all alone, and a defining entry in the California emo canon. Back in print for the first time since its original release in 2003. White vinyl pressing.

The Brazilian duo DEAFKIDS returns with a vital and combustive new album, CICATRIZES DO FUTURO (SCARS OF THE FUTURE). This nine-track sonic assault forges a path beyond the conventions and boundaries of static musical genres. Here, electronic fury and feverish organic percussion collide with a relentless Latin American punk spirit."Conceptually, the album is a visceral diagnosis of a world intoxicated by its own fictions of power, tracing the anatomy of a systemic grand deception and exploring its mechanics of psychological, social, and material domination, the indelible marks imprinted on bodies and minds and it's catastrophic consequences. It is a journey from the poisoned and addicted collective psyche to the desperate search for an antidote, while the future seems to be already cursed by the very forces that pretend to build it. Yet, for all its thematic weight, CICATRIZES DO FUTURO is hypnotically danceable - physical and ritualistic music that demands body movement as a form of mental cleansing. The album doesn't just reflect a fractured and violent world — it breathes desire to live and resist through new sonic paths.""Our music comes from the perception of the environmental, political, and moral toxicity that permeates our realities under such conditions. In the context of the album, the scars are those of a brutally stolen past reflected in a wicked future. A permanent mark of violence is also a memory that will never be silenced!"

Mabe Fratti is a Guatemalan cellist, vocalist, and composer based in Mexico City, celebrated for her experimental yet deeply melodic work. Blending cello, voice, synthesizers, and electroacoustic textures, she builds songs that move between improvisation, ambient soundscapes, and off-kilter pop forms. Emerging from Mexico City’s improvisational and experimental scene, she has become a key voice in contemporary avant-pop.Bill Orcutt is an American guitarist and composer known for his raw, highly individual approach to improvisation. A co-founder of the 1990s noise-rock duo Harry Pussy, he helped shape a fiercely abrasive aesthetic that drew from no wave, hardcore punk, and free jazz. Often playing a four-string guitar in unconventional tunings, he combines shards of melody, sudden silences, and surging rhythmic bursts, creating music that feels both primitive and structurally intricate. In parallel with his work as a guitarist, he runs the Palilalia and Fake Estates imprints and develops his own audio software, continuing to blur lines between avant-garde experimentation, song form, and DIY practice.Almost Waking:"I had known about Bill’s music for a while: since his 2017 release under his own name. I connected a lot with his music and I had no idea that years later we would be collaborating! It was a total surprise that we started chatting on the internet of collaborating!—we bounced ideas back and forth, all starting with a series of guitar solo stuff that Bill sent me.

***Mark Crozer has released countless solo and collaborative albums and has been a member of legendary alt-rock band The Jesus and Mary Chain for nearly 20 years. Yet last summer, he was adamant that he wasn't going to release any more music. That mandate lasted until he started reminiscing about his childhood in Oxford, England and wrote the dark wave confessional, "Everything Must Change." That personal track inspired a full collection of songs. Homecoming, out on boutique indie label Dusty Mars, is a 10-song album that explores loss, grief, and endings with heartfelt candor and sharp British wit. A rainy-day record, it's lushly layered with loops, samples, effects-laden guitars, tribal beats, and Crozer's spectral yet soothing vocals.

Can you believe there are now four CIA Debutante lp's in the world? That's right, this newest one, 'Trespass' is batting in the cleanup spot & it is very to task; the strongest, most focused effort put forth yet. Narrator/guitarist Nathan Roche is at the peak of his oratory & string mangling prowess. His recitation over flared fret work, conjoined with Paul Bonnet's alchemical electronic stitchery (don't forget that clarinet!-Woodwinds ed.) summons forth a promethean tableau that's inexplicably both gothic & futuristic. Imagine if Mary Shelley had created Roxy Music instead of Frankenstein? 'Trespass' burns with a demanding urgency, its majesty sweeping across time from the charnel houses of Ingolstadt, Barvaria, to the Offworld shoulders of Orion....frontiers! Whatever you thought of their previous three albums, those are now but tears in the rain. With 'Trespass', could CIA Debutante be approaching the pinnacle of Godhead? The Fates whisper only, "perhaps."

***When considering Charlotte, NC, three things should come to mind: Ric “The Nature Boy” Flair, NASCAR, and the kings of Destructo Rock ANTiSEEN. Undoubtedly, you can guess which one we are here to talk about….The early 1990s saw ANTiSEEN evolve from regional antiheroes to a global force of Evil Rockn’Roll. Between storming Europe and extensive domestic terror campaigns, the band managed to record 1992’s Eat More Possum, an album now regarded as one of their best and most definitive records.Now it would be simple enough to end the discussion there and hurl another reissue into the ring. BUT, as you well know by now, dear reader, that’s not how things get done here at TKO Records. So buckle up…Despite Eat More Possum’s legendary status, the truth is that the album never really got the chance to live up to the band’s original vision. The 1992/1993 Safe House (US) / Zuma (EU) version was mastered and released with producer Jeff Dahl’s mastering instructions COMPLETELY IGNORED, much to the band’s dismay. While later reissues on TPOS, Man’s Ruin and even the TKO in 2002 all did their level best to rectify the mistake, none of these efforts ever achieved the sound intended for the original version.Fast forward to 2026. At long last, TKO has once again braved the VAULT OF ANTiSEEN. We have managed to dig up the original 1/4” mixdown reels, and unearth Jeff Dahl’s original hand-written mastering notes. These materials were delivered to elite mastering expert Adam Gonsalves, who has...

*** Rural France is the project of Tom Brown (Teenage Tom Petties) and Rob Fawkes, who began writing songs together after both moving from London to rural Wiltshire and starting families. What started as a casual way to meet up soon turned into a band built around Tom’s scrappy slacker pop songs and Fawkes’ melodic, jangly guitar lines.After releasing their debut on Half-a-Cow Records, the duo recorded two lo-fi albums in a garage—RF (2021) and Exacamondo! (2024)—both released by Meritorio Records and warmly received by the DIY indie community for their short, melodic songs inspired by the spirit of Guided by Voices, Teenage Fanclub and Pavement.Their fourth album, SLOTHS (out May 8 via Meritorio), sees the band expanding their sound. Mixed by Rob Slater, it’s their clearest and most expansive record yet, adding organ, horns and mellotron while keeping the jangly, scruffy charm that defines Rural France. The songs reflect on getting older, time passing, and the strange realities of adult life—thoughtful, melodic indie rock with heart and humor.

***The Maureens are the soundtrack of the perfect late-summer evening, but that feeling works just as well in October or February. Their guitar-driven pop exudes a warm, timeless atmosphere while daring to take quirky turns: fresh and catchy, yet also steeped in intense melancholy, resulting in a sound entirely their own. Five albums and around seventy songs later, Maureens are celebrating their fifteenth anniversary this year—an adventure that began in the Utrecht music scene. The band members now live across the country, but their signature sound remains intact: the songs of singer/guitarist Hendrik-Jan de Wolff are infused with a love for melody and harmony, evident in every arrangement. Their previous album Everyone Smiles received remarkably positive reviews, including coverage in OOR and four stars in de Volkskrant. For their fifth and most recently recorded album, Don’t Give Up, they returned to the studio with Frans Hagenaars. Most of the record was recorded live in a remote wooden cottage in the Belgian Ardennes, giving the songs a raw, immediate energy. Once again, they are writing a new chapter in their quest for the ultimate song. Maureens have performed in living rooms and major venues like Paradiso and TivoliVredenburg, toured Spain, and closed a show at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool. Their hunger for writing new songs and playing in new places remains as strong as ever.

***Guilty Razors, Parisian punk band (1975-1978). To understand something about their somewhat linear but very energetic sound, we might need to talk about the context in which it was born and, more broadly, recall the boredom (a theme that would become capital in punk songs) coupled with the desire to blow everything off, which were the basis for the formation of bands playing a rejuvenated rock music; about the passion for a few records by the Kinks or the early Who, by the Stooges, by the Velvet mostly, which set you apart from the crowd. In 1975-76, French music was, as almost always, in a sorry state; it was still dominated by Johnny Hallyday and Sylvie Vartan. Local rock music was also rather bleak, apart from Bijou and Little Bob who tried to revive this small scene with poorly sound-engineered gigs played to almost no one. In the working class suburbs at the time, it was mainly hard rock music played to 11 that helped people forget about their grueling shifts at the factory. It makes sense that the four+1 members of Guilty Razors, who initially amplified acoustic guitars with crappy tape recorder microphones, would adopt punk music (pronounced paink in French) naturally and instinctively, since it combines liberating noise with speed of execution and—crucially—a very healthy sense of rebellion. Anything that could challenge authority was fair game and of course, strikes for just about any reason would lead to increasingly frequent truancy (with a definitive farewell to education that...

***Unearthed original copies of the debut single from the Great Plains power pop group Todd Newman and The Leatherwoods. Recorded in Lawrence, Kansas in 1988 and released in 1989, the two tracks on this single serve as a blissful snapshot of the region’s sound during the “Alternative Rock” era. A-side "To Win You Back” is pure power pop balladry, while the flip, “Downside Of An Eightball”, is a dark comedown acoustic number. Bandmates Todd Newman and Tim O’Reagan eventually relocated to the Twin Cities to continue with their musical pursuits. Newman played in a number of local bands including playing bass for Grant Hart, while Tim O’Reagan scored a long lasting gig as the drummer for the Jayhawks. For fans of Paul Westerberg, Chris Bell and acoustic Roky Erickson.

Extinction Burst is the new invocation in album-form by Guttersnipe, Leeds’ premier and pre-eminent XFCER (XFCER: Xenofeminist crisis-energy rock) duo. Slamming at full speed to multi-dimensional oblivion, Extinction Burst is the most full, hi-definition lurid dream-mare yet spewed out by Uroceras Gigas & Tipula Confusa. Engineered and mixed by Ross Halden at Hohm Studio in Bradford and mastered by Rashad Becker, Extinction Burst follows 2018’s My Mother The Vent, which garnered universal critical adoration. Nevertheless, this long-awaited follow up is more extreme: it is wildness beyond reason, splitting new tears in the reality gauze, ultimate hallucination through sound ecstasy. 2026’s Guttersnipe are evolved, mutated by 8 years of touring together and with the labyrinthine network of groups both Guttersnipe members are involved with Tristwch Y Fenywod, Nape Neck, Petronn Sphene, Yexxen to name a few. On Extinction Burst, as with previous material, the duo are heavily augmented with technology. Tipula Confusa's drum kit triggers chasm-causing synth pulses with thumping low end attack.. Strafing from all over the stereo field the constant shatter of the cymbals and toms feel like Sunny Murray or Rashied Ali in full flight during a John Coltrane session in 1967. Uroceras Gigas’s guitar + synth storm is by-now similarly an instantly recognised tool kit in underground music. Switching from screeching guitar atonality to intricate riffs from the black metal/Voivod hinterland to ultra-distorted synth meltdown, it’s an utterly overwhelming, essential and vital pouring-out of the full emotional spectrum. Both artists vocalise, ecstatic and primal, drawn out or...

Doubting all the time. Fearing all the time. Our Darkness descends upon Dark Entries with a reissue of Anne Clark’s epochal proto-house masterpiece from 1984. As a young poet, Clark found herself drawn to London’s emerging punk scene. She became acquainted with Psychic TV affiliate David Harrow, with whom she would collaborate on 1983’s Changing Places and 1984’s Joined Up Writing. “Our Darkness,” off the latter album, was released as a single on Ink Records that same year, and became an underground club hit. It’s a singular piece of music: Clark’s lyrics, delivered with equal parts muscular confidence and unease, speak of urban alienation and heartbreak, while Harrow’s production pummels the listener with hydraulic beats and gloom-laced arpeggios. The song’s spirit would prove influential on both the early Chicago house and Detroit techno scenes, where mechanistic funk and existential despair could catalyse dancefloor mayhem. This reissue offers three versions of “Our Darkness”: the original 12” remix, the Razormaid mix, and a previously unreleased dub version uncovered by David Harrow. Also included is the extended mix of “Sleeper in Metropolis,” another dancefloor hit of Clark’s, as well as the elegiac “Poem for a Nuclear Romance.” The record includes an insert with liner notes and lyrics. “Our Darkness” channels timeless longing and contemporary dismay, a classic overdue for a little light shed upon it.

Through her work across five Vastum albums, Leila Abdul-Rauf has been a sonorous contributor to 20 Buck Spin’s discography for more than fifteen years now. Concurrent to that she’s also amassed an impressive body of solo work whereby she could showcase the full range of her multi-instrumental artistic and vocal talents. We now bring that part of Leila’s output to 20 Buck Spin showcasing her darkest and most confrontational material to date with new album Andros Insidium.On Andros Insidium Leila draws us into a ceremonial descent, through the architecture of shadow itself. Unfolding like a ritual text etched in obsidian, each movement traces the violent and sacred geometry of transformation. The presence and wisdom of the feminine divine looms throughout, as an ancient and uncompromising force, in conflict with everything buried, exiled and made monstrous by the machinery of societal pressures and unrealistic expectations. The album delves deep into the dark vastness of the psyche of woman: wild, ugly, vulnerable and powerful.Sonically Andros Insidium is a mutation of the cinematic dark-ambient, industrial and ritual folk expressed in prior releases, now sharpened into something far darker, more narrative and intimate. Leila’s vocal work becomes a new focus with a wider variety of styles and characters, exorcising the demons of patriarchal fragmentation and revenge fantasy as lived myth. In its most potent moments, Andros Insidium suggests that wholeness is not purity or light, but the terrifying act of reclaiming everything that was discarded, and learning to speak with its voice.

Experience over 40 minutes of aural and visual mind fry, translated sonically for the body and soul, as only this southern post-punk trio dare deliver. "I was fortunate to have two of my favorite professors at Memphis College of Art, Mary Molinary and Jill Wissmiller, show me Maya Deren’s work while I was a student. I was in a poetry class with Mary and an experimental cinema class with Jill. Both perfect and very different contexts to see and discuss Deren’s work. Meshes of the Afternoon redefined how I thought about both film and poetry. The framing, the pace, the repetition, and her strong use of the body and its contrasting movements were all so new and revolutionary to me. Her films were poems, they were choreographed dances, and they were hugely avant-garde and experimental, especially for the time she was making them. (Meshes of the Afternoon came out in 1943!) Crosstown Arts asked Optic Sink to score her films in 2022, and we were honored to be part of bringing her work to a bigger crowd in Memphis.

Thank you to my parents Esther Zepeda Dominguez and Ramon Zepeda for all their sacrifices. S/O to El Rancho Verde and Las Casitas Apartments.Hua Hsu writes in the New Yorker, “Lowrider culture dates to the nineteen-forties, when young Mexican Americans in Los Angeles began lowering their cars to cruise in style. Starting in the sixties and seventies, the sound for these slow, styled-out crawls through the city was the oldie, whether it was the blissful harmonies of soul music or doo-wop. "Lowrider Kumbias” is the San Jose producer Turbo Sonidero’s contemporary tribute to the music he heard while growing up. Just as his forebears tinkered with the hydraulics of their classic American cars, he retrofits classics like Gene Chandler’s “Duke of Earl” or Brenton Wood’s “Baby You Got It” with modern parts, in this case electro-Cumbia riddims. His work is cross-generational take on pride, what it means to have soul, and what it means to bounce." 2022 release.

***Discos Rolas presents Puebla's Grupo Soñador for the first time on vinyl. Founded in 1998 by brothers Beto and Richie Tlahuetl in Cholula, Puebla, the group released one self-titled album as Noche Latina before renaming themselves. Grupo Soñador is renowned for pioneering cumbia in Puebla with their keyboard and synth-heavy regional take on cumbia sonidera (cumbia sound system). Grupo Soñador pushes the sound of cumbia sonidera, a style created by DJs in Mexico City who dramatically slowed down records from Colombia, Peru, and elsewhere in South America and dubbed them with personalized greetings (shout-outs). Cumbia from Puebla tends to draw more from cumbia styles from Ecuador and Peru—more keyboards and synths, less accordion—than Colombia, which the best reference for Mexico City.Grupo Soñador gained regional, national, and international recognition with their second album Camino al Cielo (2000) featuring their first sonidero hits “Cumbia de la Cerveza,” “Camino al Cielo” and “La Cumbia de las Botellas.” In 2001 Grupo Soñador's El Paso del Gigante exploded into the sonidero universe, propelling them on their tour in the United States where they played to sold-out crowds of thousands. They continue to compose, perform, and tour and the band now includes Beto's two daughters. 2021 release.

***Deep in Cyber Aztlán, Grupo Jejeje emerged in 2014 out of a shared fascination with the darker sonic undercurrents within cumbia. Mexican-American producer Turbo Sonidero, alongside Persian-British producer Arrabalero are Grupo Jejeje aka Los Místicos de la Kumbia digging deep into the cumbia universe in search of esoteric sounds from short-lived labels, synth-driven melodies from Puebla, and loop- and sample-based kumbias editadas from San Luis Potosi.Grupo Jejeje’s music filters these sounds through their own unique immigrant experiences. While Turbo Sonidero grew up as a Mexican-American in San José’s Latino East Side in the shadow of technophilic Silicon Valley, Arrabalero came of age in London surrounded by classical and popular Persian music. In Cyber Aztlán, a reimagination of the mythical Aztec ancestral land, Grupo Jejeje soundtracks cosmic encounters between Egyptian, Mesopotamian, and Meso-American cultures. After years of sharing song sketches and collaborating online, Turbo Sonidero and Arrabalero met in person in Oaxaca and Tepotzlán to work on and finalize their music together in 2018.In July 2018, Grupo Jejeje and Discos Rolas traveled to Mexico City and met with legendary artist Jamie Ruelas. Beginning in the early 1980s, Ruelas revolutionized flyer art and logos for the Mexico’s largest and most important sound systems—Polymarchs, La Changa among others. His hand-drawn imagery of space travel, sexy cyborgs, and massive sound systems defines the visual aesthetic of Mexico’s sound system culture. It is an honor to collaborate with Jaime Ruelas on the album artwork of our first release. 2019 release.

***In a world filled with noise and chaos, Harlan’s music offers a restoration to peace. Music for Stillness unfolds slowly, inviting rest and quiet presence. The bansuri flute leads the sound, its vocal-like quality weaving melody atop cello and ambient textures. Influenced by Indian classical music, Japanese environmental music, and Western ambient music, the album leaves space for the listener to choose how deeply to engage. The music offers a single question: What might peace sound like?

***The Nils are a Montreal punk rock band formed in 1978 by Alex Soria. The Nils first gained local notoriety upon the 1983 release of a five-song demo entitled Now. Their self-titled debut album was released to critical acclaim in 1987, and earned praise from Rolling Stone and contemporary punk rock bands, including Hüsker Dü. The Nils disbanded and reformed on various occasions in the 1990s and early 2000s, until the death of Alex Soria in 2004. In 2010 Carlos Soria reformed the band, and in 2015 The Nils released Shadows and Ghosts, their first album of new material in over 25 years. The Nils Now on Artifix Records is the very first time the band’s complete self-released 1983 demo cassette is being released on vinyl. With a sound reminiscent of Hüsker Dü, and the inspiration to bands like the Libido Boyz, The Nils proved at their beginning that they were a band with raw energy that blends hard-driving melodic rock with punk. Tim Yohannan of Maximum Rocknroll highlighted its heavy guitar orientation and hook-filled, Wipers-esque style, marking it as a significant, early change of pace for the era. All five songs from the 1983 demo are on this 7”EP. Pressed on black vinyl and housed in cardstock covers with art by 1980s punk artist Brian Walsby and lyric insert. Edition of 500 copies.

***Malaria infected mosquitos everywhere need to watch their backs. The most ferocious TWENTY ONE CHILDREN of Soweto are geared to exterminate all filth but their own, as they again join forces with Slovenly Recordings for an exercise in max irritability, and a structured plan with which to execute it. Immediately following the shockwaves of their explosive debut 7inch, the ‘Children return with a mini album’s worth of heavy distortion and a shit ton of bad attitude.Twenty One Children are the riotous punk pulse of Johannesburg — a fearless trio tearing up South Africa’s alt-music rulebook. Formed by friends Thula and Abdula with drummer Biko, they fuse U.S. skate punk grit with Soweto’s heartbeat in a storm of noise, soul, and defiance. Combining the insolent attacks of Suicidal Tendencies & Reagan Youth with the crude, rural thud of Ngozi Family, the 'Children are much more than just another punk band. Fueled by wit and DIY spirit, they’re a movement — building skate parks, hosting benefit shows, and igniting stages from Joburg to Kenya to the UK. In 2025 they toured the UK, shared the stage with proto-punk legends DEATH at We're Loud Fest in Kenya, and played loads of packed DIY gigs in South Africa… and they’re just getting started. 2026 ain’t just another year — it’s the Year of Twenty One.

In a post-world world, the soundtrack should be post-what-fucking-ever, and it needs to careen at light speed with piles upon piles of noise and tension. What remains of Sardinia and Turkey? GENTILESKY is there, and there, and HERE, bonding over a common goal of survival. “Dream” is their second album, and its ferocity was carefully designed to stop you dead in your tracks, but it’s not like you have anywhere left to run anyway.

Lessons is the new record from bobbie. This is their first release with Orindal Records. bobbie lives in Western Massachusetts, where they alchemize dream pop ethereality, twinkly ambient abstraction and intimate vocal clarity into their unmistakable sound. Distorted Omnichord autoharp looping, layers of drone-y synthesizers and low, reverberating guitar crack open into a wide sonic landscape. bobbie architects this atmosphere then introduces rhythm (often just Omnichord pre-set drum beats but also live drums from Lessons engineer, Felix Walworth) and then adds the lyrical presence. The songs are deeply layered and spatial but with a clear vocal throughline. There is harmony and dimensionality to this assemblage. bobbie evokes the ambient qualities of Enya, Brian Eno and Cocteau Twins as well as the pop-y poetic vibes of Dear Nora and Frankie Cosmos. Influences range widely from artists such as Laraaji, Beach House, Arthur Russell, Bill Callahan, Beverly-Glenn Copeland, Alice Coltrane, Astrud Gilberto, to projects like Plantasia and to recurring dreams + visions. When they wake up in the morning, bobbie often records themself dictating and attempting to make meaning of the previous night’s dream. Much of their album’s imagery comes from this practice.

Trademark is the third LP from Cincinnati punk quartet Choncy. Within genres that have been recycled, revitalized, and pushed to their limits for over fifty years, the group is constantly dancing around their signature sound. References of alternative music motifs stretched from bustling British megalopolises to rust-covered Midwest neighborhoods displays Choncy’s desire to play punk music but refuses to pick an era to pull from. Is there anything left to say? Are we all playing the same three chords? If we are, who owns the rights to them?Known for their “kitchen sink” style, Choncy has cleaned off the plates this time around; loosening up on their hardcore roots and taking a step further towards the estranged and angular corners of punk. Unpredictable dances between demented dissonance and craggy punches parallel a constant shift in power, resulting in a record that demands attention more than ever before.Since the release of their sophomore LP, Choncy has been ping-ponging phone demos as a full-time Ohio to New York remote effort. In similar fashion, the group elected to record these ten tracks on their own between their respective practice spaces and bedrooms in Cincinnati and Brooklyn. Even with hundreds of miles between them, Choncy continues to refine and deliver their trademark style and sound.

***The Sleeves are the duo of Jack Cooper and Tara Cunningham, both likely known to you as one half of Modern Nature. Following an all-instrumental Mossy Tapes release last November, Cooper and Cunningham have recorded 10 new songs showcasing their vocal and guitar interplay with only the faintest echoes of prior efforts (individually or collectively), representing a fully realized leap forward from their largely improvised debut.'The Sleeves' is a somewhat counter intuitive take on the guitar/vocal duo formula (provided you think there is such a thing) though it's not nearly as simplistic as "the space between the notes"—it would be the height of exaggeration to say an album this simultaneously expansive and incandescent is unprecedented. But it doesn't happen nearly often enough, either.

***Mark Morgan (formerly of Sightings and Silk Purse) and Gaute Granli first met in Brooklyn at The Glove in 2017 while Granli was on tour from his home country of Norway. The following year, Morgan embarked on a solo European tour and he and Granli did three shows together in Norway. Ultimately finding each other reasonably tolerable and able to agree to disagree on punk versus prog, they soon thereafter toured together in the fall of 2019 in Europe for 50 days with each playing solo. As the tour progressed, both found themselves influencing and being influenced by the other and by the end, they decided they should do a band together (easier to book one act rather than a package deal). Plans were made to reconvene in 2020 to record and possibly tour but then Covid threw a wrench into the works.A couple of years later, Rump State finally started playing and recording together in 2021 at Entropy Studio in Redford, Michigan (notably the childhood home of Ted Nugent who purportedly refers to it as "Tedford"). Outside of agreeing that there should be a strong focus on duo vocals and that Morgan would play guitar and Granli electronics, not much else was discussed in advance of first playing together. From these sessions, their first LP "Retaliation Aesthetics" was cobbled together and eventually released on the Parisian No Lagos label in March 2023. Since then, Rump State has toured the USA once and Europe multiple times.'Psychic Sidekick', Rump State's second...

***The title track for Lupo Città’s second LP, Inverno (‘winter’ in Italian), was born in January 2023. Written in waking sleep at 4 am. Looking out the window at the winter world below when it's too quiet, no one is around, but anything and everything feels possible. Lupo Città wrote the songs for Inverno by instinct: each song, in viscera, a life and personality of its own. Chris, Jenn, and Sarah each brought in songs at different stages, in different forms and moods. Some came together fast, others took long. Some songs had to be stripped, slowed down or sped up, while others were completely gutted and rebuilt. A hard coming out of post-COVID lockdown, trying to relearn to live outside of isolation. Moving from the dark of winter into light, a jarring shift, the world was changing so fast in such stark contrast between the quiet isolation we settled into with close friends and family. We couldn’t look away anymore, in the light of day, escalating political and social chaos happening outside, now rapidly closing in.While Lupo Città’s debut was melodic, energetic, world-weary, sometimes chaotic, Inverno is out on a limb, taking a risk, and not caring at all how it turns out. Inverno is a snapshot of the bad and good, trying to stay awake and be present, fighting off the sleep of winter and the lure of time standing still, so we can create the world we want instead of trying to survive the world we're in....

Sultans Ghost Ship LP was originally released on Sympathy For The Record Industry in 2000. While RFTC looked for a new drummer, Speedo (armed with an 8 track tape machine and 3 microphones) devised yet another alias as “Slasher” and concocted this primordial ooze of moped scuzz, punk rock and roll. Ghost Ship was met with enthusiasm by those seeking blistering relief from the weak, whiny, wretched and wimpy wannabes du jour. The sound is full on, straight ahead with only starting gates and finish lines between songs. The band played some shows around California and would slightly evolve on their second LP Shipwrecked. Ghost Ship is Sultans at their most thuggish and hairiest. Taking inspiration from Australia’s Chosen Few, Ramones bootlegs, Misfits bootlegs and then challenging themselves to be as thrifty and impatient as possible, the songs are intentionally brief, similar and burly.After this was recorded these tapes lay dormant in a shed for over 20 years. When the tapes were recently unearthed it revealed unreleased songs recorded after Ghost Ship yet before the band’s follow up LP Shipwrecked. Some of these songs would later be absorbed by RFTC and re-recorded. These songs are included here as bonus tracks and offer no relief to the record’s unrelenting pace.

San Diego’s Mrs. Magician has always bent surf music and punk into something delightfully off-kilter — sun-soaked, hook-heavy power pop with a lyrical fixation on life’s darker undercurrents. Their 2012 debut, Strange Heaven, was a nihilistic pop statement that grew into a cult classic. The 2016 follow-up, Bermuda, sharpened the edges with punchy, nervy songwriting. Both records were produced by John Reis (Rocket From The Crypt, Hot Snakes, Drive Like Jehu), cementing the band’s place in Southern California’s underground lineage.Now, in 2026, Mrs. Magician reemerges with their long-awaited third LP, Spiritual Hangover. Recorded at Dave Grohl’s Studio 606 and Singing Serpent Studios with producer Christian Cummings, Spiritual Hangover finds songwriter Jacob Turnbloom trading youthful nihilism for something more reflective. Where earlier records wrestled with existential dread through anthemic defiance, this new collection embraces uncertainty — an admission of ignorance in the face of the human condition, paired with a genuine longing for connection and understanding.The humor remains. The hooks are sharper than ever. But the perspective has shifted. These songs feel less like a declaration of dominance and more like a celebration of fragility — an acknowledgment that life is fleeting, confusing, and still worth enjoying.The album features Andrew Montoya (drums) and Mark Rivera (bass) of The Sess, Ian Fowles (guitar) of The Aquabats, and John Reis (guitar).Spiritual Hangover channels the bright urgency of late-’70s power pop through a distinctly Californian lens — warm, melodic, and irresistibly alive.“Super fun, well crafted, with great melodies.

California composer Phil Geraldi’s vinyl debut both refines and refracts his signature muse of interstitial Americana across 11 melted glass mosaics of processed guitar, decayed radio glow, and Harmonia synth horizons: Rural Deceased Undiscovered. He describes his vision for the pieces as “multilinear,” rearranging classic radio songbook elements like hooks, choruses, and emotional cues into unfamiliar topographies of “alien country.”Shards of acoustic guitar and pedal steel flicker in long shadows of amplifier hum and airwave static, like the scrambled broadcast of some heartland station along a desert highway. It’s music both rustic and placeless, warped by weather and technology, shimmering like northern lights over the badlands.Mastered by Jared Carrigan.Sleeve design by Jo Minor and Matt GoldbergInsert design by Anthony Boruch-Comstock.

A Dublin-born, stylistically-restless but fundamentally punk troubadour, Stefan Murphy emerged in the early 00s under the moniker The Mighty Stef, which became a full-band concern around 2007, wrapped up in 2016, and was followed by a short stint as Count Vaseline. Then, in 2019, Murphy met a gentleman by the name of James Mechan, who happened to be Stiff Little Fingers’ guitar tech. That last part is relevant, as any current convert to the band we’re discussing here can testify. And so is the first part, as Mechan wanted to record Murphy at his Nashville studio. Those plans were derailed by the pandemic but not forgotten when Murphy moved to Nashville in 2022. Work commenced, the pair were joined by Ryan Sweeney (of Cheap Time) on drums and Eli Steele (Sweet Knives) on lead guitar. The result was The Sleeveens, named after an Irish slang for “trixter”…not the earthly type responsible for a plastic Aztec death whistle on your exhaust pipe but rather the otherworldly one that temporarily vanishes the keys to the vehicle. The Sleeveens’ debuted on 7-inch with 2023’s “Give My Regards To The Dancing Girls” on Sweeney’s Sweet Time label and “UFO’s” b/w The Four Tops’ “Bernadette” on Interstate 94 Recordings in 2024, followed by their fantastic self-titled LP on Dirtnap Records the same year, which gained traction on independent radio thanks to bangers like “Metallica Font” and “Aretha Franklin”. An official Gonerfest 22 inclusion, the band has also shared stages with G.G. King, Schizophonics, Total Hell,...

Transformation, growth, and rebirth drive Ascent Effort, the latest release from Portland, Oregon trio Rhododendron. The title points upward, but not toward arrival. The record documents a period of change defined as much by instability as progress, where confusion and renewal unfold at the same pace. Formed in 2019 while the band’s members were still in high school, Rhododendron’s Ezra Chong (guitar, vocals), Gage Walker (bass), and Noah Mortola (drums) set out to push their musical limits without regard for genre boundaries or audience expectation. For Ascent Effort, the band joined the roster of The Flenser, aligning with a label that has long championed artists who work in tension rather than comfort. In the past seven years the trio has developed a sound rooted in technical precision and repetition. Drawing from the angular experimentation of underground rock in the 1980s and 1990s alongside elements of jazz, ambient, and progressive music, their compositions are deliberate with intensity. Riffs fracture and reform, rhythms lock into patterns only to break apart, and extended passages build pressure before shifting direction. Performing regularly in Portland, the band has cultivated an intense and loyal local following. The live setting hardened the material. Songs grew heavier, sharper, more physical through repetition and high volume. The material that became Ascent Effort was tested on tour before entering the studio. Written largely in sequence, the album traces a period of personal change and internal friction. Growth is not always clean; sometimes it grinds forward. Nothing resolves without cost. Confusion...

***CRYPTID SPAWN’S initial offering to the black metal canon is a polarizing but influential mini album comprised of primitive, atmospheric, and evil sounds. ‘Black Phosphorous Dungeon’ punishes the ear-to-brain pipeline with slow, bludgeoning riffs, minimalist drumming, and distorted, bestial vocals. The lyrics point to the bleak moments lived in this modern era of genocide and warfare such as Palestinians, Rohingya, Uyghur, Sudanese and this list goes on etc. Though some may find its production muddy and vocals alienating, they have created a divisive but revered experience for dedicated underground metal fans by blending raw black metal with death/doom, hardcore punk and ambient textures. ‘Black Phosphorous Dungeon’ stands out for its unique, ritualistic atmosphere and deep-tuned, fuzzed guitars that create a crushing, immersive feel.500 on black 140gr vinyl housed in a 24pt jacket with lyrics insert included.

***Limited double-LP version of the 2008 CD originally issued on Load, compiling the best live and studio recordings by the final iteration of this group."60 second bursts of chaotic rock 'n' roll that barbarize whole histories of freakout style, from free jazz through classic hardcore, boogie, blues, Black Flag, Germs, most explicitly through Beefheart, but all hyper-condensed into ultra-kranky riffs that Orcutt plays at hallucinatory speed, compressing Zoot Horn Rollo style avant confusion into lighting runs and metallic two note knock-outs. Hoyos's style is so primitive that it's wildly avantgarde, with an instinctive feel for time that confounds the most advanced improvisatory strategies with the most hysterical. And her vocals are post-Yoko in the truest sense, not directly informed by her but sharing the same spontaneous energy and a-musical appeal, sometimes breaking from songs completely to expand on barely articulated vocal rants and fever pitched bouts of screaming. The whole group existed in a zone that was constantly beyond technique. The arc of their career was perfect, the mission truly accomplished, and all that's left is this amazing series of recordings, a body of work that has had a disproportionate effect on the minds, if rarely the actual sound of the underground."—David Keenan , The Wire, December 2008

And with that message, they carry the torch of fast 80s USHC, meaning short songs with hooks that get the job done without overstaying their welcome. The hope for the record is to leave the listener with a desire to fight through the bullshit rather than falling into despair. Following the 2023 demo, DIMENSION took their time with writing this EP and tried to trim the fat as much as possible without overworking the songs, wanting it to sound as “live” and natural as possible.

Bestial death horde Pig's Blood are going scorched earth with their inaugural release under the Dark Descent Records banner. Destroying The Spirit sees the band reach a new level of relentless, blackened brutality. An unholy barrage of volcanic riffing and abyssal hostility, Destroying The Spirit is violence incarnate.Hailing from Milwaukee, Pig's Blood have spent the last decade-plus unleashing their unrepentant strain of death metal upon the underground. While often grouped under the banner of war metal, their sound stretches far beyond any single label.Drawing from the raw, militant fury of bands like Revenge and Blasphemy, the band fuses that chaotic savagery with a backbone indebted to early ’90s American legends such as Deicide, Order from Chaos, and Incantation.The result is a malformed yet deliberate hybrid—bludgeoning battle hymns delivered with a sharp, serrated edge. Through sheer force and conviction, Pig's Blood continue carving out their own brutal stronghold within the death metal underground.

The long‑awaited sophomore release and first full‑length LP from San Francisco’s hybrid psychedelic Latin blues rock explorers, Bolero! has risen—an unapologetically primal expression of human music.The album unfolds as a guided journey through the spiritual and mortal realms, bridging past, present, and future through dynamic, richly layered compositions. Drawing inspiration from the San Francisco Sound of the late ’60s and ’70s while reframing it through a contemporary lens, the record moves fluidly between groove, ritual, and reflection.The journey opens with “Greetings,” an acknowledgment and welcome to our planet spoken in fourteen languages by friends and family of the band, layered over a deep, funky instrumental jam that ignites the album’s momentum.A drum hit snaps into motion the next track, “Espíritu,” beginning in a hypnotic trance with ghostly vocals inviting listeners to commune and dance with the spirits. The piece steadily builds into a powerful groove, featuring percussion breaks and soaring guitar and organ harmonies. Wind chimes drift in as a deep, tribal rhythm emerges, leading seamlessly into the final track of Side A, “Bathala.” Inspired by the ancient Tagalog deity said to have created the universe, the song erupts like a volcanic war cry—thunderous, cathartic, and elemental.Side B opens with “U.A.V.” a bluesy, fuzz‑drenched anti‑war anthem featuring vivid, incisive lyrics delivered in a dark, Morrison‑esque baritone over a crushing, Sabbath‑inspired musical assault. As the smoke clears, “Simply Livin” rolls in like the ignition of a classic car. Rooted in California sweet soul, the track pairs everyday imagery with soothing vocal...

The single “We Outlast Them All” from this latest, Crawlspace Of The Pantheon, is an anthemic victory lap on album #44 from the indie rock stalwarts.Robert Pollard told Rolling Stone: “ ‘We Outlast Them All’ could be our ‘We Are The Champions’ but it’s not necessarily about us. It’s about anyone who perseveres over a long period of time.” On Crawlspace Of The Pantheon: “I worked much more diligently on this set of lyrics. I chiseled away at lines and sections and phrasings...I wanted them to have an overall emotionally conceptual feel. At times it feels somewhat autobiographical.”Guided By Voices will not be on tour in 2026. Pollard recently told Magnet: “Why would we stop playing live and make these kinds of records? I don’t know. We do what we wanna do.”“Pollard is the greatest rock lyricist of all time.” —Dennis Cooper

***Surprise Privilege is a 3-piece San Francisco punk band formed in 2021. Surprise Privilege gained a reputation in the Bay Area for their high-energy, fun spirited DIY shows, playing in various places such as Golden Gate Park, Chinese restaurants, San Francisco landmarks, and most notoriously, on a moving BART train (the Bay Area's heavy-rail public transit system) in 2023 alongside their sister band False Flag.Every release Surprise Privilege puts out is a little bit different but always keeps the tongue-in-cheek, attitude they started out with. "Feed Me" is their first professional studio recording and vinyl release, a limited run of 250 on translucent red vinyl. It blends a furious combination of both power violence and hardcore punk, giving it a heavier feel relative to their other releases. "Feed Me" is the first release on "F.Y.J.F.Y.", a label co-founded by Cody Azumi of Surprise Privilege which focuses on keeping the San Francisco punk scene alive and well.After playing sold out shows throughout the years and a series of successful tours across the US, mostly covering the West Coast, Surprise Privilege took a small hiatus to focus on opening a community-run punk record store located in the Lower Haight of San Francisco with other members of their label. Despite their small break, Surprise Privilege is back and has a lot of plans for the future to uplift and maintain the spirit of San Francisco punk.

***First time on vinyl for these incendiary hard psych rock tracks, which made their only other appearance in Australia in 1999 on CD as part of the “Sky Pilot” compilation released by Camera Obscura Records.With each passing year since his death, the intense and inspiring musical legacy of Jesus Acedo is in danger of slipping into darkness. That’s where we at Lion Productions come in — together with Rich Hopkins and San Jacinto Records — to do our utmost to keep the Lambent Flame burning, so to speak. All of the music on “Whirlpool Ocean” originates from the troubled and bizarre sessions for the album Acedo made under the name Black Sun Legion — and then destroyed, when his struggles with schizophrenia overwhelmed him. Fortunately, Hopkins had the masters, or this LP would not exist today, and some of Acedo’s most brilliant music would be lost. Happily, not the case. We have this album and other recordings of Acedo's through which to remember and admire his genius.

***A second collection of rare singles from the Gaiety Records label, featuring the cream of the mid-sixties crop of Canadian garage, punk, and psychedelic music! Highlights include more terrific songs from the Plague and Lexington Avenue, bands whose members would be better known when they created the Jarvis Street Revue. Twelve tough tracks by the Checkerlads, White Knights, Tomorrow's Keepsake, NRG, and Solid Reputation. The Gaiety roster was rich in talent (the 49th Parallel, Jarvis Street Review, and Souls of Inspyration, not to mention the Checkerlads, White Knights, Dewline, Tomorrow's Keepsake, NRG, Merriday Park, and Portland Street South) — but it was not rich in resources, which is why these singles are as relatively unknown as they are even today.

***Some of the hottest garage and rock and psych to be released in Canada during the mid-‘60s! Eleven sizzling tracks from rare singles recorded for Gaiety Records, the indie label formed by Don Grashey and Lloyd Palmer, and active from 1961-1969. Formed by Don Grashey and Lloyd Palmer in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Gaiety Records was an outlet for many relatively obscure but excellent Canadian garage and rock bands during its existence. They released their own singles as well as sub-licensing material to other labels, such as RCA (49th Parallel), Columbia (Jarvis Street Revue and Souls of Inspyration), Decca, Epic, Musicor, and others. Features the Checkerlads, White Knights, Tomorrow's Keepsake, Lexington Avenue, NRG, Solid Reputation, and the Plague, including their face melter, ‘Face of Time’ and the essential psych classic ‘High Flyin’ Bird’.

*** Montreal janglers Prism Shores return with Softest Attack, a sharper, more immediate follow-up to their acclaimed 2025 breakthrough Out From Underneath. While the previous record leaned into atmosphere, this new album doubles down on hooks, maximalist guitars, and the pure strength of their melancholic songwriting.Produced by Scott “Monty” Munro (Preoccupations) and mixed by René Wilson, Softest Attack blends jangle pop, ‘90s power pop, and shoegaze with clear echoes of The Wedding Present, Teenage Fanclub, and My Bloody Valentine — all filtered through the band’s Dunedin-inspired indiepop sensibility. For the first time, all four members contribute lyrics and lead vocals, marking their most collaborative and ambitious effort yet. Softest Attack is Prism Shores’ boldest attempt to craft a top-tier indiepop record: bigger, brighter, and overflowing with guitars, but always anchored by undeniable melody.

***From the ashes of SEMTEX 87 come GUNNER, a negative hardcore unit who treat their existence as a series of maneuvers with an unknown end goal. “An exercise in discipline and power.” Hardcore, dissonance and physicality underlines every move. Nothing without purpose. Where it will end is anyone’s guess though. The world is uncertain and filled with pain. Society cracks the psyche. Life has little quality.Similar to Semtex 87, whose impetus was informed by the movements of a deranged man rampaging around town in a stolen tank on a revenge kick, Gunner too finds abstract inspiration from a Perth local, an inwardly tortured man with a penchant for vice and suicidal ideation, that one of the band members regularly encountered at his night job. “There is a sense of being forced to apprehend the world with the tools one has been given, and sometimes those instruments are blunt and fractured to begin with. What separates us is much less than what we might imagine it to be, and what separates us from Society is much greater than we can tolerate comfortably. Necessarily, I think it is in that gap of psychosocial discomfiture that we make what we make.”500 copies on black 70gr vinyl housed in a 12pt reverse board glued pocket sleeve with A4 insert included. Recorded by Cameron Murphy. Mixed and mastered by Will Killingsworth. Art by Dave Gunner. A co-release by Helta Skelta (Oz) and Iron Lung (US).FFO: Semtex 87, Chain Reaction, Cheetah Chrome Motherfuckers, Mecht Mensch, Vile...

***Alice Kemp is a British artist working with noise, performance, fetish objects, installation and many other forms of media. Throughout her work, she articulates a broken and illogical syntax of the subconscious through trance states, dreams, and disturbances. She has performed extensively, occasionally as an associate to the Schimpfluch-Gruppe of Swiss extreme aktionists.It is a rarified violence that the Kemp invokes on her 9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning. Something disfigured. Something fucked. Something left behind. The subject matter of her investigations are deliberately inscrutable as she grotesquely amplifies a moment of terror, or fear, of sadness through pockets of piano melodies broken by psychoacoustic noise, razor-cut silence, ghastly vocalizations, crushed acts of physical aggression, and buckets of high-pressure suspense. Cryptic and oblique by design Kemp's work reads perhaps as a seance gone awry, certainly as private ritual made public, and as a transfiguration of literary body horror turned into a sonic nightmare that runs parallel to the works of Rudolf Eb.Er, Puce Mary, Sewer Election, and Luc Ferrari.9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning was originally published as part of the instantly out of print boxset, On Corrosion - a 10 cassette anthology from 2019 that was housed in a handcrafted wooden box and featuring full albums from Kleistwahr, Neutral, Pinkcourtesyphone, Alice Kemp, She Spread Sorrow, G*Park, Relay For Death, Francisco Meirino, Fossil Aerosol Mining Project, and Himukalt. The collection also stood as the 50th release for The Helen Scarsdale Agency.

***Curt Sydnor (Animal, Surrender!) and Greg Saunier (Deerhoof) play the Goldberg canons of J.S. Bach. Bach Artillerie is an absurdist take on the nine canons from Johann Sebastian Bach’s Goldberg Variations and his Brandenburg concerto no. 5. Inspired by 20th century Bach interpreters like Wendy Carlos and the Swingle Singers, the canons are arranged for live synthesizers and drums while the concerto movements are reimagined and rendered via MIDI technology, showing the potential for fully human and fully computer-based reimaginings of these peak musical compositions.Sydnor and Saunier tracked the album on March 31, 2025 immediately following the Big Ears Music Festival at the Knoxville studio of engineer Jake Smith. Saunier created his parts using only Bach’s keyboard notation and later created the MIDI arrangements of Brandenburg Concerto no. 5 to complete the album. Musical introductions and transitions were supplied by Sydnor who recorded his parts live on analog synthesizers. Some arrangements were crafted in the studio and some minor overdubs were added later.

These recordings were originally made for an album that would later get completely re-recorded before release.

Hectic and raw, they bring their own take on international hardcore (specifically Japan by way of Sweden) through an American filter. You can hear the similarities of East Coast contemporaries such as Ultimate Disaster, Destruct, et al. with the urgency and brutality of the riffs. If this short sharp shock of a hardcore punk 7” is any indication, Siphon is going to be destroying ear drums across the planet in no time. The limited record comes with a huge fold out poster with artwork by Joe B of Subversive Rite, Question, and a billion other bands you love.

***Continuing right where they left off, REEK MINDS bring us this short ripper of disgusting depraved hardcore. Six blasts of fast maniacal shredding to punch a hole in your wall to. Tighter than ever. Really awesome guitar leads bringing to mind Alienator, who they actually share members with. Tyler sounds like a man who just crawled out of a dumpster in a dark alley, beat the shit out of some asshole, and grabbed a mic to vomit his hatred on to our undeserving eardrums. This shit is about as hardcore punk as it gets. Don’t worry, there are also enough breakdowns to stomp around your bedroom and break shit to as well. In a world that has been progressively getting worse and worse over the last 8 years, at least we’ve had Reek Minds (with this being their fourth vinyl release in that time frame) continuing with a vengeance as our collective soundtrack to everything that is completely fucked. The catharsis we need in this timeline is real with Reek Minds, and it fucking hits hard. Includes a poster.

***Blurred Visions, the new album from Parisian trio Bleakness. The band draws its influences from English post-punk and Californian 80s death rock, blending them with the intensity and urgency of today’s punk/hardcore scene. The result is a dark post-punk sound, both energetic and melancholic, that revisits the atmosphere and rebellious spirit of the pre-goth scenes while injecting a solid dose of punk rage.In 2025, Bleakness crossed the Atlantic for a US tour on the East Coast and throughout the Midwest, and took the opportunity to record their third album at House of Foto Studio in Louisville, Kentucky, produced by Ryan Patterson (Fotocrime, Coliseum). An intense week spent in the Germantown neighborhood refining the band’s sound and identity.

***Electrifying heavy sessions recorded in 1997 featuring the classic Mainliner + Musica Transonic lineup of Nanjo Asahito (High Rise), Kawabata Makoto (Acid Mother) and Yoshida Tatsuya (Ruins) driving into new divergently fried terrain(s). Here, Nanjo and co. are on a quest to find new directions, and while the sessions were for an abandoned Mainliner album, a good portion of Solid Static hews more closely to the moment-to-moment deconstructions of Musica Transonic. The propulsive ten-minute opening title track is a lost gem in the canon of Japanese psychedelia and rock and roll—beginning with one of Mainliner's bludgeoning motor-psycho riffs, it veers off into auratic space, Kawabata's snake-charming guitar weaving around Nanjo's buzz-fire bass and Yoshida's multi-limbed drumming. Musica Transonic's improvised and jazz-informed take on psychedelic rock is writ across the distended rhythms and arcing bass and guitar lines that scrawl across "Prosecutor" and "Topsy Turvy," or the slurry of distorted tone that rolls through "Rot Way." Available for the first time on LP or any physical form aside from a clutch of CDR's sold at a few live dates in the late '90s. Housed in a custom die-cut, "Uni-Pak" style gatefold with metallic ink, spot finishes and matching La Musica inner sleeve.

***Conceived in 2016 in the depths of San Francisco, False Figure exploded onto the Bay Area's burgeoning modern deathrock scene as a loud and driving three-piece. Distinguishing themselves with tribalistic tom beats and screeching guitars a la Killing Joke, this became the hallmark of early releases as swirling feedback gave way to drippingly saccharine melody. Toying with a dichotomy of tension building verses only to be released by lush melodic choruses. Andres Ruiz's haunting vocals blend together a rich chemistry of melancholic, desperate crooning alongside harmonious guitars. 2002's release Castigations, saw the band take a step towards traditional gothic rock and further from traditional punk sounds while retaining their own alchemy. Now the band releases its newest iteration, departing headfirst into luscious early dream pop ecstasy while maintaining a deep beautiful melancholy radiating throughout the record. With influences from the French cold-wave scene, Spain's La Movida and British shoegaze, this newest release includes an entirely new line-up with Kevin DeFranco (Super Unison, Boy Problems) on second guitar and Kienan Hamilton (Cartilage) on bass explore a deeper concept of what modern post-punk could sound like.

Saxophonist, producer and composer Brian Allen Simon explores darker hues, transposing waking and altered states under his studio veil Anenon. On the deeply evocative new album ‘Dream Temperature’, he shifts electronic processing to the foreground, introducing digitized wind instruments and unworldly atmospherics, not heard since his innovating mid-late 2010s output.A longtime Los Angeles resident, born and raised, Brian Allen Simon has expressively operated under the moniker Anenon, releasing the highly revered ‘Petrol’ (2016), ‘Tongue’ (2018) and the viscerally beautiful ‘Moons Melt Milk Light’ (2023), in a line of unwavering musical dialogues. While the penultimate album was a deliberate, reductive, entirely acoustic detour that was born out of a want to unplug, ‘Dream Temperature’ sees Brian primed with a newly discovered wind synthesizer as his central compositional tool, alongside acoustic piano and tenor saxophone. The entirety of the album’s electronics are triggered by Brian’s lungs, generating otherworldly synths modulated by expressive breath control, channelled through the laptop as the core processing chamber for added textural components and field recordings.A free floating and heavy emotional resonance marks 'Dream Temperature' from beginning to end, invoking the feeling of waking up, still heavy from a night of half-remembered dreams, and continuing one’s day in this state. Simon maps out the album's spatial voice early on the statement title track, a deep, yet compact cut, generated from digital saxophone rasps that whistle by in close proximity, along with haze filled textures and sub bass. There is a sonic oscillation of urban grit and pastoral drift...

Reeking Aura, a five piece death metal group made of seasoned veterans from the NY/NJ underground scene, returns in 2026 with their second album On the Promise of the Moon. Tracked at OK Studios in Kinderhook, NY then mixed and mastered by the legendary Dan Swano, On the Promise of the Moon builds on the "Fires in Deep Frost" EP released in 2025 with a dark, melodic atmosphere that does not compromise their brutal, guttural NY roots.Returning from the first album are guitarists Terrell Grannum (Thaetas), and Rick Habeeb (Grey Skies Fallen) as well as vocalist William Smith (Afterbirth). Drummer Hudson Barth and bassist TJ Coon (both also in Trog) round out the lineup and bring fresh blood to the band, with all members having contributed to the writing process.The album also features contributions from guest vocalists Eston Browne (Vulnificus) and Jon Berg (The Path) as well as string arrangements by Ben Karas (Slaughtersun).Reeking Aura began in 2019 and promptly recorded their debut EP "Beneath the Canopy of Compost" and first album "Blood and Bonemeal" with Colin Marston in Queens, NYC. In addition to NY and NJ gigs supporting Malevolent Creation, Horrendous, Crypt Sermon and Mortician, they have toured the North and Southeast U.S. with such acts as Replicant, Atoll, Pyrexia, Hath, Animals Killing People, False Gods and Carrion Vael.

***The Beltones are, beyond debate, one of the best American Punk Rock bands of the late 1990s / early 2000s-era. Hash it out amongst yourselves if you disagree, but them’s the facts. And that’s why TKO Records is pleased to announce the release of Fort Liquordale: 1995-1998. Collecting damn near all of the material from the band’s original South Florida lineup, Fort Liquordale is the definitive document of the Beltones early history. Side A features the first vinyl appearance of the On Deaf Ears mini album and Naming My Bullets 7” material since the limited 2014 Record Store Day reissue. It’s obvious but nonetheless bears repeating that these songs are some of the finest U.S. punk ever committed to vinyl: mandatory listening for all students of the form. Flipping the LP takes things further into the past. SIDE-B compiles the Lock And Load 7” EP, the My Old Man 7” single, two obscure comp tracks and two tracks from the Beltones’ impossibly rare 1995 demo. For any Beltones diehard, this is as complete a chronicle of the band’s earliest material as one could hope for. And that’s that: Beltones records sell themselves, but we had to say something for this blurb.. If you aren’t already a fan, you either haven’t heard them yet, or your musical taste is in question.

Part of the early independent music movement that started in the late 1970s, K. Leimer and his label Palace Of Lights occupies a special and respected niche among electronic, experimental and ambient genres. His work is included in the Cherry Red Noise Floor compilation series and his early cassette work is featured in the critically acclaimed VOD box set American Cassette Culture. “I’ve always wanted to produce an album centered on the muted depth of sadness the piano offers, and this is almost that.” In nearly all his music, Leimer has relied on the density and layering of multiple timbres and voices to shape his compositions. With very few exceptions all the voicing on Atrophies for Piano originates from piano. Composed and recorded over a two-year period, the atrophies occupy sparse, gap-filled stillness, disassembled melody and patterns, and fluctuating, uncertain drones. Aided occasionally by treated strings, each piece seeks out edges of imminent collapse and harmonic decay. Six dark New Classical settings populate an atrophied sonic landscape possessed by an energetic melancholy. Issued on 180 gram white vinyl and various digital formats, Atrophies for Piano was mastered by Taylor Deupree with cover photography by Tyler Boley.

A magus is a wizard…a sorcerer. Magus, the band, is certainly interested in such things (who isn’t), but the name is especially apt due to the band’s approach to alchemy, the blending of rock, gothic, proto metal, and psychedelic styles to create a sound that is, ultimately, unique. Part of that uniqueness comes from the instrumentation. While guitar is often a dominant instrument of the rock oeuvre, the Fender Rhodes generally plays a supportive role. Not so here, where Jessica Weeks’ deft use of the keyboard dovetails with Greg Weeks’ more standard six-string approach. Not standard is the band’s sound. Doomy yet inspirational, dour yet vibrant, the duo’s tunes map sinister realms whose subjects span metaphysical creatures to enigmatic portals. You know, the typical stuff that rubs elbows with a magus. Formed in late 2024, Magus sprung from a desire by both artists to experiment with darker, heavier sounds. Long enamored of artists like Flower Travelling Band,, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple, the duo delved deeply into trance like riffs and euphoric solos to create the backbone of what has become their debut album, Music for Mandrax. This thirteenth Language of Stone offering features grounded, metronomic grooves, organic, lugubrious synth lines, and tandem vocals (supplied by both Weekses) that, in total, weave a heavy, trance-like spell sure to entice fans of bands as disparate as Sabbath is to Pink Floyd. Recorded at Weeks’ Hexham Head studio (to analog tape, of course), the band enlisted long-time counterparts Jesse Sparhawk (bass) and...

Two giants of alternative / experimental music join creative forces for the first time in their storied, nearly fifty-year careers. A startlingly cohesive union that burns through landscapes of primitive outsider rock, avant-garde composition, progressive ambient and further locales boldly and beautifully unnamable. Bonner Kramer (previously known as Kramer) decoded the sounds of Galaxie 500 as producer on all of their records as well as producing Low, Will Oldham and Urge Overkill’s hit single “Girl, You’ll be a Woman Soon” for the Pulp Fiction soundtrack, to name just a few of his over three hundred and seventy producer credits listed on Discogs. He is the proprietor of iconic indie label Shimmy-Disc (a one-time home to Daniel Johnston, Ween, Boredoms and John Zorn’s Naked City among countless others), and an esteemed recording studio mastermind. Thurston Moore is a founding member of Sonic Youth, and responsible for Chelsea Light Moving and a massive and varied solo career, and remains an era-and genre-defining composer, cultural critic, prime mover of all things cool, and one of the most iconic, singular guitarists in rock music’s long tail, the keystone of the explored tension between rock and noise.

“I wanted to travel / Home into somewhere,” Ana Roxanne breathes across an eerie suspended drone on “The Age of Innocence”. “I wanted to try / And go very far.” These are the first words we hear on Poem 1 and reintroduce an artist who’s in a conspicuously different phase of her life than she was when her debut album, Because of a Flower, sprouted nearly six years ago. Heartbroken and reflective, Roxanne surveys the transformations that followed and displays a new-found boldness. Her voice is naked, vulnerable and alive, no longer shrouded in tape noise or looped and echoed beyond recognition beneath layered electroacoustic textures. Throughout the course of Poem 1, Roxanne displays her skill as a singer and songwriter in the classic sense, using the limited instrumentation simply to accent her exposed tones. Muted piano phrases and plucked bass notes languidly trail her anguished siren song on “Berceuse in A-flat Minor, Op. 45”, making each word count.On “Keepsake” meanwhile, she sounds as if she’s alone in an abandoned bar, stroking the dust off the piano’s keys as she inventories her emotional scars. There’s a smell of old whisky in the air, but Poem 1 is a remarkably sober album; never wallowing in self pity, Roxanne finds catharsis in the logic of her expressions, twisting out the edges of her memories into surreal, cinematic asides. “Untitled II”, the album’s pronounced, uninhibited centerpiece, delivers on the Lynchian promise that’s been present since her first EP, 2019’s ~~~. “[I] always picked...

Bifuu_ZONE—translated roughly as “a zone of gentle breeze”—is a concept developed from Tsudio Studio’s personal vocabulary rather than any strict linguistic equivalent. While liminal spaces are often associated with unease, Bifuu_ZONE reframes them as places of quiet comfort, restoration, and slow transformation. The project centers on impermanence, erosion, and the subtle ways time reshapes even the most solid structures. The West takes its title literally, drawing inspiration from buildings and environments located west of Osaka. Each track is composed with a specific architectural space in mind, allowing tone, texture, and resonance to emerge from imagined structures rather than narrative progression. The result is a site-responsive ambient work that listens closely to stillness, weathering, and spatial openness. Saxophonist mori_de_kurasu appears on three tracks, introducing breath and human fragility into the album’s restrained sonic palette.

The album opens at dusk with an imagined final stop before departure, a roadside gas station just as daylight fades. This introductory scene, conceived as “Last Gas Station Before the Horizon,” places the listener amid passing cars, distant seagulls, and the low hum of anticipation. The idea is to frame the record as part of a radio program, potentially guided by a radio announcer’s voice drifting in and out of the soundscape.From there, the journey moves fully into night. Tracks progress like signals picked up along the drive, calm, reflective, and gently nostalgic, until the album’s closing moment. “Peaceful Blue” represents arrival at the final destination at dawn, when the sky shifts into a deep blue and the listener waits quietly for the sun to rise and a new day to begin.

Generic Flipper, the debut album by Flipper, remains the most absorbing full-length LP to emerge from the early San Francisco punk scene. A constant source of imitation for so-called “noise rock” bands, it has yet to be surpassed in its nihilistic glee.Recorded between October 1980 and August 1981 and released in 1982 on the indispensable Subterranean Records, this album functions as a chaotic, sticky mass of individual personalities: the magma-like bass eruptions and dual vocals of Will Shatter and Bruce Loose, Ted Falconi’s icy guitar scraping and the relentless beat of drummer Steve DePace. At times playful and taciturn, paranoid and absurd, Generic charts a deliberate path that willfully chances destruction.In early ’80s punk, when the hardening default was “faster-shorter-louder,” Generic subverts the nascent hardcore scene with a strictly applied regimen of turgid-slower-heavier. The lyrics are bleak, yet unnervingly beautiful. “Ever” sets the tone with trademark restraint—“Ever wish the human race didn’t exist? And then realize you’re one too?”—while closer “Sex Bomb” is a churning, 8-minute epic with looping bass, saxophone accompaniment and electronic effects of dropping bombs.Tons of indie bands have attempted to recreate Flipper’s mix of acidic guitar, metallic bass sludge and sardonically brilliant lyricism, using the seemingly effortless template they pioneered; however, the effect usually drives listeners right back to Generic. While most of their contemporaries wilt under direct comparison, No Trend, the Butthole Surfers, feedtime and Church Police are a few who can stand the frigid heat.

***REISSUED!!! BAD POSTURE's 1983 Irresponsible records C/S 12". These guys hung around and shared members with Flipper. They started in SF and ended the band in NYC shortly after this release. Eight tracks including the classic "G.D.M.F.S.O.B." featured on the 1982 MRR Not So Quiet On The Western Front compilation. Features bonus demo tracks and a large fold-out poster with unseen photos, fliers and band bio/interviews. Limited edition of 500 copies. Limited edition of 500 copies. "The eight tracks on this release showcase BAD POSTURE’s hysterical brand of aggressive funnypunk to its best advantage. The title song and “Time for Smack” are good examples of this band’s abrasive, mid- to fast-tempo hardcore assault, and while I admire their on-target lyric sense, the song structures could use more catchiness and originality as a rule. Nonetheless, there are some nice, gravelly vocals on this entertaining disc, so give it a listen."—Steve Spinali, MRR # 12, March 1984

It’s taken Sealed records more than five years to put this release together but finally it’s here. The one and only Bikini Mutants. The Bikini Mutants were from Yeovil, Somerset and part of the All the Madmen world. In their short life as a band they recorded two demos at Monitor Studios, Milborne Port in Somerset in 1982. Let's Mutate collects these two demos on one LP, along with a 20 page booklet featuring photos, lyrics, reviews, interviews and much more. The band played mostly in Yeovil and the West Country along with the Mob and the Review, and even though they were part of the West Country anarcho scene, the sound was a mix of scratchy post punk and indie pop. Members of the band went on to be in My Bloody Valentine and the Chesterfields. The songs are intricate, delicate and engaging with the drums and bass locked in, the fuzzed out guitar weaving on top and Christine Cole’s angelic voice taking each song to pop heaven. Think a mix of Girls at our Best, Au Pairs and the Marine Girls.

***A Visitor's Soundtrack is the first glimpse into the world of Sleep Paralysis. Instantaneous Expressive Music. Single-take free improvisation featuring Moog synthesizer and drums in the forefront of the mix, accented with an array of strange percussion instruments such as the Walaphone. Sleep Paralysis share a conceptual foundation with free jazz and early experimental electronica, creating an abstract / surrealistic painting with live sound. The album flashes between minimalist drone and frenzied bursts of avant-garde percussion and electronics. Sleep Paralysis invite the listener to a deep and free soundscape on A Visitor's Soundtrack.

Coming just on the heels of the release of The Bats new LP, Corner Coming Up (Flying Nun), earlier this year, we at Ally Records are incredibly excited to be releasing a remastered version of Robert Scott's (Electric Blood, The Clean, The Bats, The Magick Heads) stellar solo LP The Green House. Originally released by Flying Nun in 2014, but out of print on vinyl for several years and not widely available in the US, we felt it was time. Ideally, we were targeting a 10th anniversary release, but 11-12 years works just as well, and the results are worth the wait due largely to Carl Saff's skillful work on the remaster.Upon the initial release of The Green House, seasoned veteran NZ musical journalist Graham Reid described it as capturing Robert "at yet another career peak in melodic songs which only rarely allude to the acoustic or rock chug of his other bands but mostly turns attention towards deftly tuneful songs" with descriptions ranging from dreamy to ethereal to timeless. We'd add haunting, beautiful, and folk-inspired at times to that range, and songs like "Lights Are Low” and "Lazy Boy" are some of his best. Tristan Dingemans (of NZ psych outfit High Dependency Unit) adds a subtle, but menacing guitar texture to balance out the comforting elements of the lead-off track "Lights Are Low," a song which establishes the mood for the rest of the record perfectly. We also agree with Reid's assessment of the closing song "Right From Wrong"--...

***Following an EP and several singles, Brooklyn-based punk band Shop Talk delivers a full-length album. The band's self-titled LP was recorded in Nashville with Stiff Little Fingers tech / Sleeveens bassist James Mechan behind the boards. The LP is the product of an immersive five-day session at Mechan's residential studio, and it harnesses the power of Shop Talk's live show with minimal overdubs. It's a snapshot of this hardworking New York group on the heels of their summer tour, and half-delirious in the Tennessee heat. These songs have the emotional intensity of a fever dream—partly because Mechan and the band were running moderate-grade fevers during tracking. Listen well, but don't get too close. Recommended for fans of: X, The Adverts, Nick Cave, The Pretenders, The Damned, etc.

Has it really been 13 years since Dirty Fences released their first album TOO HIGH TO KROSS? Probably. We started counting and ran outta fingers.Still NYC’s favorite ‘Rock’n’roll, Hard workin’ band,’ the Fences—as their friends call ‘em—haven’t veered far from the path they first forged here. Maxed out, always tuneful heaters, intended for cranking at top volume, and perfect for howling along to in whatever damn key you please!Nowadays it’s hard to imagine a DF show without “All I Want,” “Heaven Is Tonight,” “Under Your Leather,” or “White Lies” in the boy’s hit-factory repertoire. Each and every one of these 13 tracks is bound to get stuck in-between your ears for days, then years to come.Meanwhile the band’s second and third full lengths, along with heaps of singles, furthered their sonic blitz, slyly as Ramones’ heir apparent, Bee Gees meets CBGBs rebel rousers, The Freshies’ worthy rival from the Big Apple — or, all of the above?!Recorded over two weeks at High/Low Recording in Memphis, Tennessee by Toby Vest, Too High To Kross quickly sold out, as the band toured up a storm. At the time nobody knew the album would spell THE E-N-D for Volcom Entertainment, who went bankrupt shortly after its one and only vinyl pressing. It’s remained out of print ever since. Until now.For years, aftermarket copies have been scarce and prohibitively pricey, and a proper reissue has been long overdue. After working with members’ other projects (Hershguy and Brower), Dig!

Chicago legend K. Alexi returns to Dark Entries with K.A. Posse’s Strkes Again, an EP of preleased unreleased acid and house mayhem. K’Alexi Shelby’s illustrious career has included releases on legendary labels such as Trax, DJ International, and Transmat, as well as collaborations with high-profile artists like Marshall Jefferson and Pet Shop Boys. But his musical journey began at the young age of 12, when he befriended Ron Hardy and Frankie Knuckles while frequenting the Music Box and Warehouse. In high school, he began to write songs and hone his poetic craft. “I recognized I had a gift to say what I was thinking. I would study Prince and Marvin Gaye, figure out what they meant and put my spin on it. The power of the word. I was writing love notes for all my boys in high school and making a killing. I would know what to say and what they should do.”Dark Entries previously reissued Shelby’s debut record, Essence of a Dream, which was recorded under the name Risque III in 1987. Strikes Again brings us six tracks recorded in Chicago between 1988 and 1990, which come courtesy of Mike Dunn’s personal archive. This record showcases the rawer, more immediate side of Shelby’s sound, with tracks full of overdriven 808’s, careening sirens, and dangerously funky breakbeats. “Imported Taste” brings Shelby’s signature deep pads to the front of wild congo-laced percussion. “Suckas Be Ready” is a slamming hip-house cut featuring vocals from MCD-TA, while disco-samples duel with crunchy 909s...

In the pantheon of classic free jazz, Noah Howard’s The Black Ark looms large. Recorded at Bell Sound Studios in New York City in 1969—just prior to the alto saxophonist’s relocation to Europe—the album was eventually released in 1972.The Black Ark exhibits not only the power and imagination of Howard’s playing, but also his breadth as a composer and bandleader. Listeners expecting unrelenting blasts of “energy music” might be surprised to find a cohesion atypical of free jazz; amidst the wild, impassioned solos, Howard weaves in Latin rhythms and fat-bottomed grooves.The first side, consisting of “Domiabra” and “Ole Negro,” sets the album’s tone. Both tracks sound as if they could have appeared on some of Blue Note’s proto-spiritual jazz, groove-heavy releases—evoking the likes of Horace Silver or Bobby Hutcherson—before ceding the floor to the horn players’ anarchic firepower.As John Corbett writes in the liner notes, “Two players stand out. Bassist Norris Jones—who would soon consolidate his name into a one-word reversed amalgamation/permutation of the two, Sirone—is given ample room, largely unaccompanied; his corporal approach foreshadows later work with the Revolutionary Ensemble. But the secret weapon on The Black Ark is Arthur Doyle. Straight from basement rehearsal sessions with Milford Graves, whose ensemble he had joined and who remained a favorite of the drummer for decades, Doyle is a human flamethrower.”Trumpeter Earl Cross’ guttural, vocal effects complement Doyle’s take-no-prisoners approach, while the estimable combination of Muhammad Ali (Rashied’s brother) on drums and Juma Sultan on congas adds an ever-shifting propulsion.

The latest by Alexander Sirenko’s omnidirectional Coral Club alias traces his bedroom 4th world architectures onto more iridescent terrain. Follow The Mirage weaves between states of bliss and illusion, tranquility and transience, reveling in its own unraveling. Synths and synthetic percussion congeal and dissolve and ebb and flow in sideways tidal surges of waves, wind, clouds, and crystals. Silver currents crest into dizzying mallet latticework. Tribalist marches fray into woozy cosmic undertow. If motion is color, a mirage is a rainbow – to be savored, favored, and followed.

The 4th full-length by Argentine séance centrist Acid Twilight arrives after a 3-year lull spent musing on visions of mystic orders, silk roads, and altered states. Trippo Nova fuses these fascinations into an hour-long journey to the end of the night, crafted with keys, bells, guitar, metronomes, shakers, synths, and smoke. It’s music of vaulted halls and the long-shadowed outskirts of camp, unspooling like ceremonial fragments of older, longer, nameless melodies – their origins unknown, but their ritual unbroken.

Here we find ourselves, among the Canadian miscreants Egregore whereupon they return from whence the wind howls like a damned choir and the Earth knows no master, to chart a broader sonic wilderness via It Echoes In The Wild. And much as sea-rogues and freebooters sought fortune upon blackened waters, so too does Egregore venture musically into diabolic and ungoverned lands.Presenting something more expansive, elemental and untamed on It Echoes In The Wild, the early occult black death metal lunacy embraces atmospheric breadth equally alongside primitive force to delve deep into not only geographic wilds, but the psychological, esoteric and spiritual hinterlands at the edges of complete madness. Dark invocations and secret tongues draw forth echoes from forest and fen, cave and cliff, tempting the temporally tethered to receive the curse, all the while driven by a primal, unknowable sardonic menace.Though the voyage be perilous, to succumb to It Echoes In The Wild is to become ensconced in a lawless dominion of the soul in service of a higher call. Mirroring nature’s unbridled forces and the hidden echoes that dwell within, Egregore’s second album takes the band’s mystical insanity and magickal perversion to the edge of the abyss and plunges forward.

***For this one, Jack and Meg decamped to Memphis to record at the legendary Easley-McCain Studio and walked away with a bonafide classic. Unique for a White Stripes album, as it contains no covers, no guest musicians, no blues and no guitar solos, this album would be most of the world's introduction to the band.While the video for "Fell In Love With A Girl" could've single-handedly raised the price of LEGO stock three bucks a share (IF it was a publicly traded company) the other jams on here are momentous, from the fuzz distorted clarion call of album opener "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" to the finger-pointing accusations of "I Think I Smell A Rat" this album has everything you could ever want from the Detroit duo.Cut directly from the original 1/4" master tapes, pressed on HEAVY 180-gram vinyl and lovingly ensconced in a beauteous Stoughton tip-on jacket...this album has never looked better, and perhaps, has looked markedly worse.

***Named after the Dutch art movement and magazine of the same name from the early 20th century, the White Stripes sophomore release finds the band recording in the comfortable confines of Jack White's Third Man Studios, then housed on the ground floor of his house in Southwest Detroit.This is the album that would propel the band into globe-trotting rock and roll prominence, from jaunts to Australia, New Zealand and Japan, to a crucial support slot opening for Sleater-Kinney. The on-point covers of Son House and Blind Willie McTell pair wonderfully with both the minimal downtempo somber numbers and the maximum energy explosions of unadulterated power.Pressed on 180-gram vinyl and housed in a Stoughton tip-on sleeve, this is undoubtedly the best version of "De Stijl" to hit the shelves.

“Forty or so Damaged Bug tunes from the past seven years were orphaned / unfinished, which is pretty rare for me. I just kept having other things going on and life kept getting in the way. And frankly, the songs were all over the place so I didn’t see a thread in there, but in light of current events in the world, I feel like it’s every artist’s calling to construct personal messages cloaked in a moments of escapism. That’s what this record is for me—was something to clear the decks a little bit in my studio and relax my mind and keep the wolf from the door. It’s a bit of a joyous / sad record dealing with hope and forgiveness, two things which I hope end up more in my life. “It’s abstract and poppy, fried and sugary. “It exactly how I feel at the moment fried and skewed. “Good luck out there and I hope this turns off the torrent for you, for a moment .” — John Dwyer

Music in Continuous Motion, Bill Orcutt’s latest entry into his 21st-century repertoire of quartet guitar music, pointedly steps away from the cut-and-paste constructivism of Music for Four Guitars into a sonic stratum that's yearningly melodic, resolutely human, and built for performance. Conceived for a 2026 NYC concert, Music in Continuous Motion shares the concision of its predecessor—but rather than the discrete, mechanistic precision of Music for Four Guitars, the tracks on Music in Continuous Motion unify—each song weaving four gleaming threads into the warp and weft of an evolving, complex texture that employs simple, repeating motifs to build new melodies from counterpoint itself. It accomplishes this in the most efficient manner possible: most of these 12 tracks hover around two-and-a- half minutes, each iterating first the substrate, then the melody and its variations, then slamming shut like a clockwork music box.Based on previous recorded evidence, Orcutt is fond of boundary conditions for his studio guitar records. Much of the time, his launchpad is obvious (The Four Louies, How to Rescue Things); with others, it’s intentionally obscured. When recruiting me to write about each release, he might send me a clue (“This is a bridge pickup record more than a neck pickup record,” Orcutt helpfully offered for Music for Four Guitars). Although any given dispatch is a potential red herring, up until now, each has implied an Oulipian conceit (however obtuse) that at least somewhat determines the outcome. Thus, I was a bit surprised by his statement on Music in Continuous...

Carve is the second full-length by Bay Area artist Kathryn Mohr. Written over the course of five years and recorded over several weeks in a rural singlewide in the Mojave Desert, the album centers on love experienced as a form of grief, not as an aftermath of loss, but as a condition of intimacy itself.Mohr describes Carve as an album about how memory exists outside the body, embedded in places and landscapes. It is shaped by her first return to the American Southwest since a childhood road trip at age five, and by the experience of moving through terrain that holds emotional weight long after its origins fade. The record considers how intimacy feels after years of isolation, and what it takes to carve out a life that allows for trust, presence, and feeling rather than mere survival.The project took form after a difficult tour that ended in Joshua Tree. Mohr pointed her car into the desert and drove alone, crisscrossing the Mojave on dirt roads. Months later, she returned to record the album, working alone with an acoustic guitar, a field recorder, and limited supplies.Following that period, Mohr began to allow for intimacy and connection. The time she spent recording Carve in the desert did not create isolation so much as mirror it. Working alone out of an old, western-themed jail Airbnb, the physical enclosure reflected the emotional conditions under which much of the record had been written: distance, restraint, and long stretches of stillness. In that context, love...

"Julius Hemphill's debut record, 1972's Dogon A.D., was self-produced for his Mbari imprint, and it was issued with a beautiful black-and-white cover. Very DIY. The label's name writ large along the bottom edge, like it was the band's name. It's a quartet record featuring Hemphill on alto and flute, with Baikida Carroll on trumpet, Abdul Wadud on cello, and Phillip Wilson on drums – a classic jazz front line/rhythm section format, but nothing conventional about the way the music sounds."The long track – from where the LP takes its title – is one of the key epic statements of new jazz in the era. Among its remarkable distinctions, it manages to draw on Wilson's schizoid experience having been a member of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and the first drummer for the Art Ensemble of Chicago, in making an 11/8 rhythm into a staggeringly funky thing of joy. Over the course of fourteen and a half minutes, Hemphill builds a nearly continuous solo, his spiritual blood brother Wadud sawing the cello with a deep blues soulfulness that is raw and mantra-like in its repetitive incantation. It feels right and wrong in equal measure, the theme carrying its own piquancy with honked barnyard dissonances and some contrary motion between the horns and string. Most of all, it takes its own sweet time, in no hurry to get anywhere in particular, but out for a righteous stroll."– John Corbett (excerpt from the liner notes)

To commemorate the 40th Anniversary of the passing of James Darroch, singer / songwriter / guitarist for Sydney's incredible The Eastern Dark, Grown Up Wrong! is thrilled to announce a long-awaited reissue of the band's classic single "Johnny and Dee Dee / Julie Is A Junkie".Heavily influenced by the Ramones—the band opened their first live show with 'Blitzkrieg Bop' and from then on opened with a new Ramones song every time they played, working through the band's complete catalogue in chronological order—as all manner of hyper-melodic and high energy rock. The Eastern Dark were a classic trio powered by former Celibate Rifles bassplayer James Darroch's blazing guitar and anchored by former Lime Spiders backing vocalist Bill Gibson's hard driving and melodic bass playing (and supreme backing vocals) and Geoff Milne's untouchable beat keeping. They set Sydney's Radio Birdman influenced scene alight in 1984 and quickly built an international following on the back of their classic single. Sadly, just hours after completing what would become their next release - the mini-LP Long Live the New Flesh— the band's life, and that of 26-year old James Darroch, was brutally ended in a road accident whilst the band was on its way to Melbourne.On the back of the tragedy, the band's music lived on and it's global impact was reflected in the influence it bore on numerous bands, from Boston's the Lemoneads to Tokyo's Teengenenete, and obviously a succession of Australian bands from the Hard-Ons through to God and the Meanies and beyond.After...

Long lost Sydney power pop band circa '79-80 whose two main players came together at the urging of legendary LA svengali/producer (Runaways, Hollywood Stars, Candy etc) and songwriter (Kiss, Van Halen etc.) Kim Fowley after he 'discovered' them both during his Australian sojourn of Xmas '78/79. Those two main players were Jarryl Wirth, guitarist of now iconic and oft-bootlegged early Melbourne punks Babeez/News (Jarryl recorded solo tracks for Fowley under the name the Lonely Boys) and Jimmy Manzie, songwriter/bass player for hugely popular Sydney band Ol' 55 (Aus's answer to Sha Na Na/Flash Cadillac) who previously had a #1 album and multiple Top 10 hits (and who can still sell out theatres). Manzie is also known amongst power pop fans as the producer of the classic single 'Sooner or Later' by Fowley's other Aussie power pop proteges, the Innocents, and is known to Ausrock fans as the producer of the Choirboys.Edition of 500 copies on hot pink vinyl.

Previously unheard live recording from '77 of legendary Aussie power pop pioneers Beathoven, who were described by Kim Fowley as 'the Tasmanian Bay City Rollers'.Huge in their home state, Beathoven failed to break nationally (despite multiple TV appearances and a Best New Band' nomination at the 1978 Countdown Awards) and eventually morphed into the Innocents, who are also much loved in power pop circles.Recorded live to two track, this album captures the mania surrounding the band and captures the band at their early Beatles best and sounds like The Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl reenacted in a Melbourne highschool in the '70s! Includes great versions of fan faves like "Please Don't Go", "Darlin'" and "Shy Girl" and plenty of songs never before released.Includes liner notes by the band's David Minchin, with plenty of cool pix and memorabilia.Both Beathoven and the Innocents have been recently names as favorites by The Lemon Twigs.For Fans Of: Lemon Twigs, Sharp Pins, the Gnomes, early BEATLES!, Swinging Blue Jeans, Bay City Rollers, Rockin' Horse, the Poppees, the Innocents, the Nerves, the Scruffs, the Spongetones, Shake Some Action-era Flamin' Groovies, Utopia's Deface the Music, the Rutles!Edition of 500 copies on sold blue vinyl.

Courtroom Wedding, the feral new album by singer-songwriter-punk rock legend Chris D.’s new unit Poison Fang Society, succeeds In the Red Records’ release of two expansive albums by the bandleader’s Divine Horsemen, Hot Rise of an Ice Cream Phoenix (2021) and Bitter End to a Sweet Night (2022).The taut, economical eight-song set grew out of several songs penned in the immediate wake of the COVID pandemic lockdown and originally envisioned as material for a third Divine Horsemen record. But logistical problems involving the band’s co-lead singer Julie Christensen’s ability to record in Los Angeles led to the formulation of a new solo configuration rooted in the past.Poison Fang Society guitarist Larry Schemel, most recently of Death Valley Girls, and Tucson-bred drummer Johnny Ray are both veterans of the eight-piece lineup heard on the Flesh Eaters’ 1999 album Ashes of Time. They are joined by bassist-keyboardist-guitarist Sharif Dumani, who also engineered the collection and co-produced with Chris D.The songs Chris brought to the studio reflect a shift in style: “I was really trying to write some more traditional kinds of songs, but not make them sound really anonymous. On the last couple of albums, the Divine Horsemen albums, there was a lot more cut-up stuff. I still did some cut-up in the lyrics with this record, but not as much. The lyrics to ‘Cellars to Weep’ were very influenced by songs like Bob Dylan’s ‘Subterranean Homesick Blues’ or ‘Highway 61 Revisited,’ even though song doesn’t sound like that. I wanted to...

The unholy triumvirate of Big Sexy Noise featuring Lydia Lunch, James Johnston (Nick Cave, PJ Harvey, Faust) & Ian White (Barry Adamson) of the notorious Gallon Drunk are dead set on proving once more that ROCK is alive and kicking, down and dirty and raunchier than ever!Lunch helped pioneer no wave in 1977 with the slashing din of Teenage Jesus and the Jerks and has remained a caustic presence in the alt-rock firmament ever since. Big Sexy Noise unites her with guitarist James Johnston and drummer Ian White of guttural London greasers Gallon Drunk for the most joyfully bawdy music of her career, stripping bare the bluesy brawn of 70’s heavy-rock and inverting its every cock-rock cliche to Lunch’s delight.White’s limber shuffle injects sinful grace into what could have been Neanderthal sludge, while Johnston stirs up the din of an entire band with his single guitar, hurtling between bone-simple, steamy riffs and blasts of near psychedelic noise.Big Sexy Noise Live in Italy, a fierce, fearless, tub thumbing, balls to the wall rock monsterpiece.

***BACK IN STOCK!!! "With bass drones cranked way past 11, frantic guitar shredding passages, and blown out drum machines, TAKAAT’s ‘Is Noise Vol. 3’ poses the question, ‘what if the Tuareg songwriting legends Tinariwen started a band with drone-lords Sunn O)))? Well, that might be what ‘Is Noise Vol. 3’ kinda sounds like. Drawing from sonic inspiration of blown out Takamba recordings of the Sahel, slinky drum machines of Hausa pop mp3s, and manipulated field recordings collected in Agadez, Niger, ‘Is Noise Vol. 3’ is yet another exciting musical departure from its prior volume. TAKAAT was birthed from the idea of always evolving concepts and taking risks, seeing each volume as an opportunity to explore noisy futures steeped in a shared language of DIY. Through chronological limited 10” EPs you too can take the noise home. Play it loud."—Mikey Coltun

***"Maisy Owen, a Nashville native, has been surrounded by music and the art of songcraft just about all her life. First came the viola at age nine, then guitar where she embraced fingerpicking, soaking in influences from Nick Drake, Bert Jansch, Mazzy Star and David Olney. Raised in a musical family, her father Gwil Owen is an Academy Award-nominated songwriter.Maisy’s unique sound, musical truth and stirring vocals inhabit Dark On A Sunny Day, her debut album, produced by Robin Eaton (known for his work with Jill Sobule and co-writer of 'I Kissed a Girl')Drawn to melancholic melodies and dark poetic imagery, her first single 'My Youth Is All For You' was released as a 7” and gave Maisy a chance to explore her visual side / love for abandoned houses with an accompanying video. Her second single, 'On My Way Down' was recently featured as KCRW's 'Today's Top Tune.'Often spotted around Nashville playing bars or cruising around in her beloved pickup, Maisy is that special talent in a city awash with singer-songwriters. While folks thus far seems to have different takes on who she might sound like (for us, it's some of our favorites; Vashti Bunyan, Anne Briggs, Tia Blake...), pinning that down is a fool's errand. She is Maisy... a singular talent, and one worth watching.""Drawing on the moody intimacy of Nick Drake, the folk finesse of Bert Jansch, and the hazy dream-pop glow of Mazzy Star, she’s carving out a sound all her own."—KCRW"A finger style that is...

***ON OLIVE GREEN WITH ULTRA CLEAR MERGE VINYL!!! Montréal’s Phobocosm return with “Gateway”, an unrelenting and eldritch death metal opus that seals one chapter while unveiling the next. The album includes material from every songwriting period of the band, some of it dating back to the “Deprived” and “Bringer of Drought” eras, as well as “Foreordained”, of course,” explains guitarist Samuel Dufour. “Gateway” was recorded, mixed, and mastered by long-time collaborator Xavier Berthiaume (Gevurah, Sanctvs) during the same session as Foreordained, giving the two records a consistent sonic throughline, while allowing “Gateway” to close established narratives. “We view it as the closing of a chapter for the band,” Dufour continues. “Not that our future material will be completely different from our existing material, far from it, but we have decided to do things a little differently next time around by adding new elements that haven’t appeared in our music before, exploring different dynamics and experimenting with a new tuning. Thematically “Gateway” grows from ideas first explored on Foreordained: “The song ‘Revival’ from Foreordained inspired the album’s theme, which is the fact that humans have been trying to live forever — or to unnaturally prolong life — since the dawn of time, often for reasons even more absurd than the pursuit of eternal life itself,” elaborates Dufour. “We used this as the main theme and pushed the concept further, exploring the most repulsive forms of cruelty humans are capable of — even when using science as a means to prolong barbarity...

***"Static Shock out here still pushing the finest in international punk and hardcore. This time with a smoking debut from Oslo’s Draümar. Their influences are from the same city block with groundwork laid by groups like So Much Hate and Svart Framtid. Unfortunately, the songs are blasting away at the same monumental enemies albeit with different faces. The never-ending nuclear question, societal unease, genocide, and a steadfast approach to not turn away from the constant horror of today’s world make up the tapestry of this 12”.The intro and outro track nod and update John Carpenter’s Assault On Precinct 13 setting the stage for a flurry of cold, desperate Norwegian punk—instantly identifiable and as potent as ever. Indeed, they’ve scraped the blood, sweat and victory off the floors of Blitz and distilled it into a Molotov aimed directly at a world in constant crisis. These are chords and context against a rising fascist world where screaming is not a limp response but also tactic, celebration and affirmation. Aside from the fury contained in the original tracks you get a bonus treat in the dual vocal attack on the Bannlyst song ‘Herrene’ which features original Bannlyst vocalist Finn Erik Tangen—instantly identifiable and still just as pissed."—Josh Nickel

***Originally released on the Black Eye label in 1988, Paddock Of Love was the Sydney band's second LP and the first to really feature a more stable line-up, which included Guy Maddison (future Mudhoney bassist), Nick Barker (future pop star!), Peter Hartley and, of course, the man who drove the engine, Stu Spasm (Art Gray Noizz Quintet). Around the time of its release, the band were invited to play on Andrew Denton's nationally-televised TV show on the ABC, Blah Blah Blah, and played the opening barnstormer, "In The Raw," fully nude, causing an uproar in the tabloids. It was a fun time to be alive, and shot the band into the national consciousness of confected outrage for a few weeks. What's more important is this recording, which is a glorious collection of scungey 'n' grungey rock 'n' roll degeneracy in the finest sense of such words. It is filled with killer tracks like "Funeral On A Spit", "Gargoyles" and "Cannibal's Lament", sounding focused, purposeful and like a real BAND. Paddock Of Love has been out of circulation for 30+ years, and in this edition, Sorcerer also include a huge fold-out poster with a reproduction of the cover on one side, and lyrics and new liner notes from Stu on the other side, as well as outraged articles from the time, press clippings, etc. The cover shown here is the Censored Version (spot the difference!), so that it can stay on the internet and not get taken down, though the real...

***REISSUED ON VINYL - FIRST TIME ON CD!!! Masterminded by Portland, Oregon-based musician T. Messing (Rohit, Nux Vomica) and taking its name from a Khanate song, Rotting Sky's 2014 masterpiece and sole full-length album "Sedation" still towers grandiose and inscrutable as defiant testament of a vision that remains unrivaled and unprecedented to this day, over a decade after it was first conceived. A swarming and sweeping creative tour de force conquering expressive totality from deep within the most tense and concealed folds of inner turmoil and personal struggle, "Sedation" plumbs the darkest depths of torment as a massive cathartic deflagration, immortalized into the present as one of the most enduring, moving and soul-shattering underground experimental black metal creations of the past decade. Adhering religiously to its foundational principles of withdrawal, isolation, confinement, and frugal self-empowerment, "Sedation" accretes from a myriad of field recordings, samples, guitar pedal layering, and home-made DIY recording tactics, to embody a massive colorless monolith of industrialized sonic ruin. A majestic convergence of dungeon-creeping raw black metal, disembodied power electronics, industrial noise and dirging funeral doom, ascending and spiraling into an obsidian maelstrom of despair. The foundational seclusion driving other recluse experimental and industrial leaning black metal projects such as Nortt, Gnaw Their Tongues, Murmuüre, Emanation and Paysage d'Hiver has convergently evolved similar stylistic traits in Rotting Sky, materializing a majestic and impenetrable aural specter in which the artist's unique personal.

***After their debut release, Communion, Suitor’s efforts went into sculpting a different sound with their newly expanded lineup. A pared down selection of songs they wrote during this period would ultimately become Saw You Out with the Weeds. In the spring of 2024, the songs were recorded live in Lawrence, Kansas by Caufield Schnug and Lira Mondal of Sweeping Promises. Suitor’s wide range of influences and exploratory ethos are on full display in this concise yet diverse set of tracks. The record is a push and pull between elements of noise pop, post-punk, and indie rock, balanced by densely worded vocal melodies and strong, captivating hooks. Embracing a larger wall-of-sound approach for the mix, Saw You Out with the Weeds is filled with sharp, layered guitars and driving rhythms that course through all of its shimmering textures.

***The first ever official release by this legendary Melbourne post-punk band who only ever existed for a number of months in 1978, but who cast an important and influential light in Australian (and global!) music, influencing the likes of the Boys Next Door/Birthday Party and The Models, the group's membership and its diaspora reading like a who's-who of crucial Australian music of the past 50 years. In the band was a young Rowland S. Howard, who would soon go onto join the BND/Birthday Party; Ollie Olsen (Whirlywirld , No, Max Q , Dogs In Space soundtrack and so much more); Janine Hall (Saints; Weddings, Parties, Anything) and Jeffrey Wegener (drummer extraordinaire for the Laughing Clowns and the Saints, among others). The Young Charlatans recorded a demo with Ron Rude, and also surviving is a live recording from the Tiger Lounge in Richmond. With help from band manager Bruce Milne , Eminent Vinyl have sourced these two recordings to make up this LP, mixing the best of the both to document 45 minutes of inspired music as young players were still grappling with the fallout of punk rock, and wishing to push the music further into more experimental and adventurous directions. Contained here are 13 original songs composed by Rowland and/or Ollie—including an early version of Howard's defining track, "Shivers"—remastered by Mikey Young and featuring extensive liner notes by author and friend/fan of the band, Clinton Walker.

***Black Editions presents the first ever vinyl and digital editions of Rotting Tapes II by Rotting Telepathies, the free-punk trip of spectral poet Michio Kadotani and High Rise founder Nanjo Asahito. Recorded live in 1982, and originally issued as a limited cassette edition by the notorious label of the Tokyo underground, La Musica Records. Kadotani's music has previously only been documented on a 1991 CD on P.S.F. (entitled Rotting Telepathies ), and the recently rediscovered '87 KAD 3:4:5:6 set, which makes this disinterring of a highly limited 1990s La Musica cassette edition particularly significant. The unrelenting dunt of the rhythm section here, locked-in and revolving around Nanjo's bowel-rumbling bass, is the perfect foil for Kadotani's guitar—sometimes cutting, sometimes spindly—and the stream of babble that was his vocal style. It's frazzled but underpinned by viciously sharp logic. A beautiful representation of Kadotani, the man Nanjo once called "the only real punk in Japan." Available for the first time on LP or any physical form aside from a small run of hand assembled cassettes on the Japanese La Musica label in mid '90s (LA-107). Housed in a custom die-cut, "Uni-Pak" style gatefold with metallic ink, spot finishes and matching La Musica inner sleeve. La Musica Records was a label founded by Asahito Nanjo in Tokyo during the 1990s. It released nearly 200 cassettes and CD-r's, all handmade in micro-editions sold at shows. The catalog featured artists and recordings largely of obscure, often completely unknown origin, sanctioned and "grey-area" documentation of the Tokyo...

***Brooklyn-based pianist and composer Eva Novoa presents Eva Novoa Solo (I), her first solo piano recording and seventh album with 577 Records. Recorded at the legendary Sear Sound Studios in Manhattan, the album captures Novoa alone in the studio, embracing the artistic challenge of vulnerability, introspection, and creative freedom that defines the solo piano format. After several years working primarily within piano trio settings and other ensemble configurations, Novoa turned inward, embarking on a deeply personal sonic journey. Solo (I) marks a pivotal moment in her artistic evolution and establishes the foundation for a new series of solo recordings. On Solo (I), Novoa expands the traditional piano vocabulary. While the grand piano remains her primary instrument, she also performs on Fender Rhodes and electric harpsichord (the latter to be explored further in upcoming volumes), incorporating Chinese gongs, additional percussion, vocals, and even whistling on select tracks. The result is an intensely intimate and sonorous experience—raw, cinematic, and emotionally charged.

The other side of the LP finds Franklin back in Australia, where he’s made a new home for a number of years.

Smug Brothers’ music has been cutting through the indie noise for more than two decades, driven by the ever-evolving chemistry of singer/guitarist Kyle Melton and drummer Don Thrasher (Guided by Voices, Swearing at Motorists), and their slew of highly collectible LPs, CDs, and cassettes.And yet, you don't need to own any of those to get an overview of the Columbus, Ohio, band’s insanely addictive, riff-driven catalog. Smug Brothers’ newest release, Gravity Is Just A Way To Fall, does that for you, arriving on the heels of both a new record (2025’s Stuck on Beta) and an increasing number of shows, festival spots, and Melton’s own recording finesse.Like Heartless Bastards, Cloud Nothings, or Times New Viking, Smug Brothers burst out of Ohio in the mid-2000s with a scrappy, lo-fi sound that only hinted at the head-bobbing greatness to come. Briefly a recording project with Darryl Robbins of Motel Beds, and since 2009 a full-fledged band, Melton and Thrasher have belted out Beatlesquese earworms, head-spinning sound collages, serrated stompers, hushed folk, dance-ready horn splashes, and more on their sonic journey.Thank the indie gods, then, that they’ve chosen a tight 13 songs for the LP version of Gravity that showcase their mastery with a rotating cast of Ohioans (most of them sporting their own worthy musical projects, including Kyle Sowash, Brian Baker, and Marc Betts).I’ve been a fan since the very beginning, not just as a proud native of Dayton, Ohio, where they formed, but as a rock lifer and music critic who’s...

Born from the grips of the pandemic, Shine are the newest brainchild of Hazael’s Tomasz Dobrzeniecki, and their first album Wrathcult leaves no doubt that a new force in Polish extreme metal has awakened.Inspired by the likes of Emperor, Bathory, Morbid Angel, Entombed and Dismember, Dobrzeniecki’s new outfit channels that lineage into something raw, relentless, and unmistakably its own.“‘Shine’ for me is a sheen of a sword's blade, the last thing that your foes see in their lives. You can also relate it to the Promethean light given to people that enlightens or sometimes blinds us. It can also be a glare of rage stemming from the resistance towards the unnatural rules forced upon us,” explains Dobrzeniecki when asked about his new unit’s name. “Our music is full of references to ancient rules and rituals and times when people lived in accordance with nature and cosmos using the primeval knowledge.”Dark Descent Records will handle the release, having previously collaborated with Dobrzeniecki on the reissue of Hazael’s classic opus. Wrathcult continues in similar thematic territory, invoking forgotten ancestral knowledge and tapping into primal forces, and mythic echoes of a pre-Christian world.“Lyrics for the album are mainly inspired by the pre-Christian spirituality and mythology of our forefathers and based on such books as Bestiariusz Słowiański, Mitologia Słowiańska by J. Bobrowski and M. Wrona, and Słowiańska Czarownica (Slavic Bestiary, Slavic Mythology, Slavic Witch).

“The music on this record is a reflection of journeys and travel. The real world kind and the metaphorical ones as well. Having experienced the arrival of my children, the decline and departure of my parents, and the many years of venturing out and returning home in my own life, travel feels like the perfect tropology to consider the mysteries we inhabit. Travel and its impressions, rituals, superstitions—the possibilities and risk-all open up onto the landscape of our biggest questions, fear and wonder.“Two songs established the spine of this music. Songs I’ve always loved, it seems even before I’d heard them. The first one, and the source of the title is ‘You Belong to Me’ by Jo Stafford. Colonial overtones unmissable to our modern ears aside, it’s also a beautiful mid century romance—and an ode to the threat of a shrinking world. The song represents the loneliness and the mystery of being alone and left behind. The singer is not asking their loved one to shut down horizons, merely reminding them to return when the traveling is done. To set aside The Silver Plane of transition, change and the in-between for the intimacy of solid earth.“The second song is ‘Promised Land’ by Chuck Berry. Also about a journey and another one that moves easily between allegory and narrative. The singer is on the move across segregated America trying to get to the promised land of California. The song is both a tall tale that evokes Mark Twain, and an American...

Gutvoid was formed in Toronto, Ontario by Daniel Bonofiglio (Guitar) and Brendan Dean (Guitar and Vocals), soon followed by Justin Boehm (Bass) and D. W. Lee (Drums). Blending modern death and doom soundscapes with progressive rock and metal songwriting foundations, Gutvoid creates a monster seething with gut-wrenching riffs, cavernous vocals and prog virtuosity. With the release of the “Astral Bestiary” EP in 2019, the debut album “Durance of Lightless Horizons” in 2022 and their latest output, the “Breathing Obelisk” EP in 2024, Gutvoid has continued to build on their sound, focusing on more elaborate yet intentional song structures while deepening the depth of their aggressiveness and technicality. The upcoming full length album “Liminal Shrines”, the first half of a two-part concept, showcases the band at their most intricate, aggressive, and creative thus far, further expanding and building on their cosmic horror infused atmospheres and origins. “Liminal Shrines” was recorded at Boxcar Sound Recording, Mount Wexler Studio and Dystonic Sounds, mixed and mastered by Greg Dawson and BWC Studios and features cover art by Kjell � ge Meland.

Luciano Cilio was born in Naples, Italy, in 1950. He studied music and architecture and, in the late ’60s, collaborated with local artist Alan Sorrenti, American expat Shawn Phillips and various avant-garde theater groups. A virtuoso guitarist and self-taught composer, Cilio released only one LP before his untimely death at the age of 33. Dialoghi Del Presente (1977) is a work like no other, one that sounds both ancient and ahead of its time. Produced by Renato Marengo, it features a series of muted tableaux for strings, woodwinds, guitar, chorus, piano and percussion. Cilio carves out a space where subtle, repetitive phrases yield—almost imperceptibly—to breathtaking silence. As Jim O’Rourke writes, “These recordings sound as if they were to please no one but himself; they feel self-contained, introspective, and determined ... You can feel in the music a sort of necessity that can be rarely found, like in This Heat’s debut or Nick Drake’s Pink Moon.” While each subsequent “quadro” grows more abstract, Cilio draws the listener into an expansive, pastoral soundscape. The closing piece, “Interludio,” begins with a plaintive guitar, which is joined by haunting strings and woodwinds before concluding, poignantly, as the album began, with Cilio and his guitar, alone once more. Superior Viaduct's edition reproduces the original sleeve design. Sourced from the original master tapes. Recommended for fans of Johann Johannsson, Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden, Arvo Part and Popol Vuh.

***Tommy Peltier's Echo Park, compiled of unheard tapes from the early/mid 1970s, brings us into contact with a long-extinct creature—equal parts slinky hipster, universal soldier of the heart and snuggly loverman—he light-rockin’ tinseltown troubadour, the likes of which hasn’t been served around Hollywood since 1979! Tommy’s somewhere in the tuneful tradition of Rupert Holmes, Stephen Bishop, Andrew Gold, David Batteau and of course, Captain Fantastic and the Thin White Duke. His soulful songs and high-pitched vocals (he was once called “Tom Rapp on helium”) are paired with the requisite chopsy, jazz-enriched LA players, entrancing the ear with grooves and performances both tasty and sweet. Mixed and mastered with great zest by Jim O’Rourke (he brought new life to recordings of a similar vintage for Judee Sill’s posthumous Dreams Come True back in 2005), Echo Park is an encompassing trip through a whole other time and place.

Originally released in 2001, Up The Country is the debut album by The Sixth Great Lake and a quietly revered title within the late-’90s / early-2000s indie scene. Rooted in jangly guitars, melodic songwriting, and a distinctly pastoral sensibility, the album sits at the intersection of indie pop, folk-rock, and classic guitar-driven pop.Although initially released with modest exposure, Up The Country steadily developed a loyal following, earning cult status among fans of understated, melody-focused indie. Its charm lies in its simplicity: clean arrangements, memorable hooks, and an unforced warmth that has allowed the record to age exceptionally well over the past 25 years.This 25th anniversary reissue presents an opportunity to reintroduce an overlooked catalogue gem to today’s market, appealing both to original fans and to a new audience drawn to timeless, guitar-led indie records. With renewed interest in archival and heritage releases, Up The Country offers strong long-term catalogue potential beyond initial anniversary demand.

***Chicago singer/songwriter/producer Gia Margaret describes her music as “sleep rock.” It’s a genre all her own, combining elements of folk, shoegaze, slowcore, ambient electronica and trip hop. For her self-produced debut album, There’s Always Glimmer (out July 27, 2018 on Orindal Records), Gia Margaret crafted twelve gorgeously melancholic lullabies to combat her own insomnia, and to salvage some beauty from the brighter and darker moments of her life.There’s Always Glimmer explores relationships between friends, family members and significant others, often in past tense. Sparse verses isolate mundane moments of domestic and urban life, and choruses ache with earnest expressions of yearning and loss. The disarmingly simple language of Gia Margaret’s lyrics, when carried by the melodic sparkle of her singing voice, have the power to elevate an ordinary moment into something supremely nostalgic and sentimental. A ride on a train, a hand on a shoulder, a dog in a yard, the light of the moon through an apartment window are each made significant and sacred, worthy of examination and preservation.As much as it addresses the unease in our lives, each song on There’s Always Glimmer is steeped in loving comfort, awash with gentle sounds to usher the still minutes before dreams come, when we’re left alone amidst the shadows and the echoes of our memory. There’s Always Glimmer exists to fill the darkness and the quiet.

The Disassociation is a collective made up of all five members of Refrigerator, Amy Maloof of the band Falcon Eddy, author/bassist Jonathan Lethem and artist/musician Sam Sousa. Their first record is comprised of material written and shared over the last five years and recorded over one long seventy three hour weekend. It is called Losing Is A Luxury.Some songs feature one member, some all eight, as the mood turns from stoic Tammy Wynette to Shambolic ESP Godz/MIJ Yodeling Astrologer before circling back to NZ circa 1985. This is no side project, no "eclectic and organic album", it is a fucking electric shut down. The band is a true collective with members bouncing from instruments, vocals and songwriting duties.The seed of the project was a song that Maloof recorded for Lethem and Sousa's weekly radio show on KSPC. Lethem, who has written lyrics for Lee Ranaldo, Walter Salas-Humara and a myriad of others, does the same here, but also plays and sings, while his radio co-host sings a gruff Lee Hazlewood/Ann Margret duet with Maloof. Refrigerator offers both knee play balladry and some bright cherry shoulda been AM pop leanings on the record as members back up or step out with the collective of The Disassociation.The band is doing three shows on the west coast and two shows on the east coast as well as multiple pop up shop variants of satellite versions of the band that will feature two to seven members, across the states throughout the spring and summer....

***Itchy & The Nits could very well hold the distinction of being the world’s most charming band. They possess a friendship that one could only imagine exists in teen sitcoms of the 60’s and 70’s and Saturday morning cartoons. The world could collapse tomorrow (seems probable) and with the rest of us hysterically running around, hands to the heavens, The Nits would be gathered in some cave banging on rocks, strumming rubber bands and putting each other in stitches. They are the real deal 21st century Monkees.“Welcome to The Itchy & the Nits show / Dance like you’re at the disco” sings the chorus to the Nits’ second Theme Song, which opens their sophomore album. Greetings From... contains odes to Smelly Boys, swimming at the Nudie Beach, and watching television on a beautiful day; more songs about relationships and less songs about getting crabs. 'Cartoon' is littered with classic sound effects swiped from the songs source material, which feels perfectly at home amongst this setting. Even at their most introspective, on song such as 'Waiting Around' and 'Gimmie a Break', the sounds are more suited for the beach than the funeral parlour, and simplicity is still the order of the day. We don’t hear a guitar solo till album closer 'City Line', most of the songs are two to three chords, and the choruses are generally a group chant sure to stick in your skull and crack you up.Itchy & The Nits have spent the last two year’s honing their...

***Explosive. Urgent. Wildly inventive. Everyday Timebomb captures Dog Faced Hermans at their most fearless—fusing punk intensity, free jazz chaos and political fire into a sound that defies genre and time. Long out of print and increasingly difficult to find, this lost classic is finally back on vinyl for a new generation to discover. Formed in the vibrant European post-punk scene of the late '80s, Dog Faced Hermans stood apart for their raw energy, charismatic vocals and an instrumentation that inspired artists from The Ex to Godspeed You! Black Emperor . Their fearless spirit and DIY ethos turned noise into art and protest into rhythm. This limited reissue stays true to the original analog sound while the fresh remastering gives the original tracks new depth and punch. Each copy includes carefully reproduced artwork and archival notes celebrating the band's unforgettable legacy. For fans of Chumbawamba, Rip Rig + Panic, Fugazi, and anyone who believes that music should sound like liberation itself. Everyday Timebomb is more than a record. It's a reminder of how revolutionary sound can be. LP limited to 500 copies; Cut at Schnittstelle Mastering and pressed at Optimal in Germany.

***Debut 7” from NYC’s Disket. Formed by members of Baby Shakes, Mala Vista, and Vaxine, Disket fuses the sounds of punk and powerpop to make an infectious and anthemic hook filled single. Harkening back to the late 70s era when punk records had no fat on them, a trimmed down double A side 7” you absolutely had to have before the album came out just in case that fantastic B-side didn’t end up on it.

***A reissue of Circle X’s first full-length album. Prehistory was recorded in 1981 and released in 1983 by Index Records, making them, strangely enough, labelmates with Wall of Voodoo. Circle X were formed in 1978 from the remnants of NO FUN and the I-HOLES, Louisville, Kentucky’s first two punk bands. Circle X got the hell out of Dodge quickly enough, settling upon New York, then Dijon, France, and then back to New York again. Prehistory is a tire-burning left turn from the band's earlier EP. The pendulum arc of TONY PINOTTI’s vocals still contain throat-shredding howls, but expands to contain croons, moans, speech. BRUCE WITSIEPE’s lacerating guitar is dumped into a dubbish aquarium of reverb, and RIK and DAVE LETENDRE worry obsessive polyrhythms nearly to death.The music of these Louisville-NYC art-punk-rockers continues to exist bafflingly outside of time—so when better than 42 years after initial release to reissue their album debut on vinyl? New listeners will find, in addition to the roiling compulsion of its odd, dance-damaged clockwork and synthesis of feral and aestheticized values, a refined understanding of the width and breadth of “post-punk” music, from any era, known or unknown.

***Confined to Time, the debut full-length from Cemetery Reign, features eight Death Metal / Punk emanations brought forth from the mind of David McMaster, known from the ranks of such celebrated underground acts as Street Tombs and Superstition. With Confined to Time, McMaster thematically opens the gateway for a soundtrack to the catastrophic apocalyptic devastation happening above, beneath, and beyond the funeral grounds of Earth, developed from a multitude of riff-charged songs with haunting, reverberating guitars, and obliterating rhythmic assaults of drum and bass ruthlessness that have been entombed until now. Confined to Time was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Augustine Ortiz (Street Tombs, Dysphotic) at The Decibel Foundry and The Kitchen Sink in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Cover Artwork by Grady Gordon (Predatory Light, Reversed, Sutekh Hexen).

***Black Tape II is only the second widely available release by Ohkami No Jikan (The Time of the Wolf), one of the more esoteric groups of the 1990s Tokyo underground. Recorded in 1992, it illuminates a largely undocumented facet of Nanjo Asahito's psychedelic cosmology, distinct from his better-known work with High Rise, Musica Transonic, and Toho Sara. Aside from a handful of limited, handmade cassettes and CD-Rs on his La Musica label, there's only been one Ohkami No Jikan album, Mort Nuit, that made it beyond the collector inner circle. One of Nanjo's longest-running, most mysterious outfits, Ohkami No Jikan's conceptualization—as a psych outfit "that explores 'stasis' and 'motion,' both actively and philosophically"—hints at the intensity of the music here. There's a pellucid beauty to much of Black Tape II, with the simplest, most erotically charged chord changes descending from the heavens, Nanjo moaning consumptively as the songs slip by in an acid daze. The 1992 line-up here, with Asai Fumiyo on bass and Nagao Kouji on drums, was one of many variations of Ohkami No Jikan; simultaneously languorous and heavy, at times pushed into the red with arcing blasts of feedback, the group feels cosmically aligned with Nanjo's purity of vision. Housed in a custom die-cut, "Uni-Pak" style gatefold with metallic ink, spot finishes and matching La Musica inner sleeve.

***Electric Cowbell Records announces the launch of Richmond Relics, a new archival imprint dedicated to preserving the city’s musical history. Its inaugural release is a newly remastered reissue of FA3574, the sole album from Richmond, Virginia’s legendary supergroup Famous Actors From Out of Town. Originally self-released in 1986 as a limited-edition, cassette-only title, FA3574 was recorded at Floodzone, a repurposed tobacco warehouse studio in Richmond.The album features ten original instrumental tracks that capture the group’s kinetic chemistry and their off-kilter blend of late-’70s/early-’80s art rock, jazz, noise, and improvisation. Nearly forty years later, the recordings remain strikingly vibrant. Now fully remastered for vinyl.Formed in Richmond, Virginia in the mid-1980s, Famous Actors From Out of Town created ambitiously composed instrumental music rooted in the city’s fertile underground scene. Built around the uncommon power of two drummers working intricately in tandem, the quartet blended jazz, rock, improvisation, and experimental music into a sound that was both cerebral and physical.Though the band played infrequently, their live appearances became legendary local events, drawing multigenerational audiences of punks, metalheads, jazz fans, students, and artists alike. The group featured composer and keyboardist Marty McCavitt, percussionists Johnny Hott and Pippin Barnett, and multi-instrumentalist Paul Watson on trumpet, guitar, and bass. All four were veterans of Richmond’s jazz, rock, and new-music communities, with deep connections to bands such as the Ululating Mummies, Orthotonics, Gongs Violence, House of Freaks, Idio Savant, the Tom and Marty Band, and the Snakehandlers. Their creative pedigree extended well beyond the city, with members...

Considered by many the template for 1990s indie rock. Versus’ first full-length album became an instant cult classic. Recorded by Adam Lasus (Yo La Tengo,Helium, Lilys) at his Studio Red in March of 1994 and released just six weeks later in early May of that same year on the Teenbeat label. Finally back on vinyl LP with all new art on the outside (designed by Unrest’s Mark Robinson) and the original art on a full-color innersleeve, plus an OBI strip holding the package together. While the first pressing didn’t include the track “Fallow,” this edition has all 12 songs from the CD. Each of them remastered by Scott Anthony.Formed in New York City in 1990 by guitarist Richard Baluyut and bassist Fontaine Toups, Versus became one of the most important, influential and underrated bands in the then budding indie-rock genre.“They weren’t as influential as Pavement, as industrious as Guided By Voices, as idiosyncratic as Unrest, or as ubiquitous as Superchunk. But the part that Versus played in the indie rock underground of the 1990s can’t be overlooked. . . . Versus were the quintessential indie rock band.” — Pitchfork

"At long last a chance to wander behind the sky. In the chaos of the momentary and the infinity of the image, the room hums among the countless reverberations of voice and body in which, for the most part, we remain unseen. Belgrado, a ring of keys chiming through an empty prison hallway liberating every iron door as it approaches in countless careful celebrations of its passage. El Encuentro, meaning “The Meeting” or “The Encounter” pulses in cool kindness and high energy reverie, probing the same moment from a thousand angles as if Alain Resnais photographed their own private hallucinations and burnt them into song. That moment, THE moment is so elegantly woven into lyrical silk on El Encuentro as an exploration of dreams and reality, deep personal reflection, and acceptance of the end. It is the search, and the crossroads of the ethereal science of the imaginary. It sounds like being led into the back room of a tiny club in an imaginary city lost in time - intimidating whirring machinery drawing you in as if to lure you into wrecking on the rocks in a spume of Last Year at Hacienda-bad, dizzy on Righeira punch, and burnt by the Balearic sun.15 years after their debut, Belgrado continue their journey of musical development from the immediacy and directness of their guitar driven post punk sounds all those years ago into an ever evolving musical project which has spanned four LPs ranging from minimal wave and dub influences all the...

***First ever reissue of the Berkeley CA hardcore batallion Special Forces' 1984 World Domination 12" EP coupled with 1983's 8 Songs To Kill By demo. Special Forces were a staple of Bay Area hardcore in the early 80s, gigging with all the major acts who came through town, such as Discharge, DRI, Misfits, Crucifucks, Fang... The list goes on. The group played a no frills, brash brand of USHC, perhaps most distinguished by their frantic, razor wire guitar strumming reminiscent of Feederz, Dead Kennedys or Italy's Peggio Punx. With sardonic lyrics taking aim at American militarism, Special Forces are a complete package for any early 80s USHC aficionado. And speaking of complete packages, this reissue includes tons of unseen photos and flyers, and of course the vinyl debut of the group's 1983 demo. What are you waiting for? Enlist today!

***Loving reissue of unsung death rock heroes Ex Voto's 1990 12" EP Don't Look Back paired with a cavalcade of unreleased 80's material. The 80s SoCal death rock scene was anything but organized, hence a group like Ex Voto, who had been around in some form or another since 1982, making their vinyl debut in 1990. The group's Anglo influences are all fairly apparent—Sisters of Mercy, Alien Sex Fiend, Joy Division and the like—but the group puts the same distinctly Southern Californian spin on the sound as their peers Kommunity FK, Christian Death or VooDoo Church. There are even shades of EBM, anticipating the industrial boom of the dawning 90's. Highly recommended for any 80s gothic gourmands.

THE ART GRAY NOIZZ QUINTET is spearheaded by twisted Australian guitar legend STU-ART GRAY, most notoriously known as STU SPASM of LUBRICATED GOAT, CRUNT, SALAMANDER JIM, and THE BEASTS OF BOURBON. Adding another crazed chapter to an already solidly sordid musical history, THE ART GRAY NOIZZ QUINTET stars some of the finest scoundrels of the New York City underground scene - SKELETON BOY of WOMAN on two-string bass, NIKKI D'AGOSTINO on sax, and veteran drummer RICH HUTCHINS of LIVE SKULL providing the savage, swinging beat. A rotating roulette of characters swagger into the second guitar slot as needed, each showcasing their particular specialty - twang, treble, or atmosphere. Stuart Gray's wayward path through the flashpoints of noise, grunge, and swamp-rock history is well-represented in the Quintet's sound - chaos with a cinematic edge. Sharing stages with kindred spirits such as THE SCIENTISTS and MUDHONEY got the attention of audiences early on. Their recordings and incendiary gigs throughout the New York scene and beyond soon caught the eye of the infamous LYDIA LUNCH, and it was only a matter of time before a new collaboration was born . . .Now, THE ART GRAY NOIZZ QUINTET collide with the queen of no wave LYDIA LUNCH on a new two-fisted ten-inch single . . . Melting the MAGAZINE classic "PERMAFROST", and grinding out an apocalyptic version of IGGY POP's "MASS PRODUCTION".

After a year of demos and in-person performances that impressed everyone from The Lemon Twigs to your mom (what!), Mod Lang can finally poly-phonically dent your ear drums with wax.Yes, Mod Lang named themselves after a Big Star song. Big deal. No, they’re not accepting suggestions for a more “original name” but thanks for your concern.Born out of Detroit’s underground rock ‘n’ roll circuit, Mod Lang came together in the summer ’24 when scenesters Antonio Keka (guitar/vox) and Alex Belfie (guitar/vox) joined forces with Ava East (bass/vox) and Ben Taber (drums) to put their sharp pop rock instincts front and center.As you’ll hear on both sides of this single, Keka’s and Belfie’s bright harmonies sound Everly-tight with a youthful and slightly ragged exuberance that’s very convincing. Clever hooks, heartfelt grit, and a sense of fun. That’s what we need most in these dreadful times. 'TV Star' consumes side-A and hits with the immediacy of a lost-era ‘70s power-pop classic. What exactly is a TV star? Write your answer here____________________. On the flip side, '3+1' is a fiery but tuneful collision with blistering guitars and a militant groove that one day will have 45 collectors shouting about.For a group that’s spent its first year and a half building a reputation onstage with no album out, this single puts their strengths on full display. What started as a new outlet between their other groups...

***"The Motor City’s fabbest new foursome has finally squeezed a year and a half of late-night drives, in-person blow-outs, busted A/Cs, and grass roots-fueled rock ‘n’ roll onto a new slab of wax that will really turn your head. After dominating the Midwest circuit with nothing but word-of-mouth, a couple of demos, and harmonies bright enough to make mods and rockers make peace, Mod Lang delivers a debut LP that proves they weren’t another hype band that some old geezer told you about.Tracked mostly live and bounced down to reel-to-reel, Borrowed Time is a direct and concise attempt at a pure pop album. Across the ten tracks, you’ll hear messages about hopeless romanticism, disillusionment of everyday life, urban alienation, and rock ‘n’ roll mythology. Simple, direct, and unpretentious. Better than TV. Starting with the opener 'What I Can’t Have,' the true heart of the record, guitarists-vocalists Antonio Keka and Alex Belfie’s Beatles vs Stones melodies set the tone for the remaining 30 minutes. The beat-driven 'Cocamoda' reportedly emerged from a gibberish jam that tells a comical tale about a loved one getting put into jail while showing off the impressive rhythmic force of bassist Ava East and drummer Ben Taber. 'These Words' is proof Keka and Belfie got the brains and ragged charm for writing clear, infectious melodies that’ll make you feel alright. Both 'Big House' and 'Borrowed Time' come on hard with a level of breathless energy that borders on frenzy — investing pop for a rawer, looser, and...

***A reissue of the first two solo records from R.E. SERAPHIN on one LP.Tiny Shapes is paisley pop meets guitar-centric post-punk. R.E. Seraphin’s lyrical point-of-view is both cynical and sentimental—falling somewhere between The Replacements and The Feelies circa The Good Earth. Musically, jangly yet sturdy instrumentation collide with hushed vocals. This approach is best heard in opening cut “Today Will Be Kind”—a tune that offers a hopeful view of love gone sour. Engineered and co-produced by JASPER LEACH (Tony Molina) and mastered by MATT BULLIMORE (The Mantles), Tiny Shapes was written following a move from Austin to the Bay Area. While re-acclimating to life back in his hometown, Seraphin enlisted original Talkies rhythm section, OWEN KELLEY (SLEEPY SUN) and PHIL LANTZ (NEUTRALS, COCKTAILS) to help develop his songs.A Room Forever, featuring six acoustic-driven, but deeply melodic songs (including a cover by Luna), is every bit the small-scale rock triumph as its predecessor. Inspired by the southern gothic vignettes of Breece Pancake and the melodic guitar interplay of The La’s and Television, Seraphin recorded these songs in his home in one short spurt. Long-distance contributions from co-conspirators Owen Adair Kelley (Sleepy Sun), Matt Bullimore (The Mantles), and YEA-MING CHEN (YEA-MING & THE RUMORS) help elevate the tunes from homey demos to top notch pop.

***"I first heard about St. Louis garage rockers Ace of Spit in 2022 thanks to their Sophomore Lounge-released self-titled debut album, a wild punk rock LP that sucked up and spat out surf rock, proto-punk, and even a bit of power pop on us all (it snuck onto my year-end list and everything). Four years later, Ace of Spit kicked off 2026 by releasing their sophomore album Ace of Spit II, this time co-released by legendary St. Louis music venue The Sinkhole’s record label and something called “Wombat Cock”. If anything, Ace of Spit II is an even greater commitment to the twin tornados of freewheeling garage punk and “spaghetti western” vibes; with one major exception, the quartet (Brett, Scott, Steve, and Gabe) spend all of this LP’s twenty-seven minutes prowling the fabled “Cramps to MC5” spectrum. The album’s first three songs are all “rippers”, to be sure, but the ever-so-subtle desert-rockabilly sound is already there, and it only gets more obvious in “Diaspora Rock”, “Road to Reno”, and the genuinely-Western-evoking “Past Continuous”. That one “major exception” I mentioned earlier is “Parts List”, a bizarre excursion into fuzzed-out, fried electronica (with Link Wray riffs over top of it, of course) for three minutes; no idea why that’s smack dab in the middle of the record, but I don’t mind it–and besides, everything else rocks, so who cares?"—Rosy Overdrive

***Wristwatch returns with their first album in 3 years! Aptly titled III, it is the first Wristwatch release to feature all 4 members of the live band on record! This is also the first time the band has had an outside engineer come into the fold. The band chose Beau Sorenson (Bob Mould, Superchunk, Taylor Swift) to engineer and mix the sessions. Additional recording was done at frontman Bobby Hussy's home studio. The result is the most powerful and commanding album the band has made thus far. This is Wristwatch at peak power. Tight, in your face and full of all the chaos the band's live shows are known for. Tyler Spatz's frenetic bass lines come through front and center while guitarist Ben Dederich's lead lines take the band into spacey post-punk territory. Snappy and precise rhythms from drummer Eric Hartz perfectly encapsulate the original drum machine tracks and bring new life to these songs. Bobby Hussy's exuberant and over the top vocals are the cherry on top. "Hints" distills the band's raw Midwest energy into two and a half minutes of tense, buzzing post-punk. Driven by gritty guitar tones and sharp unrelenting rhythms, the track teeters between urgency and restraint—a cathartic release wrapped in tight sonic control. It's a standout cut from III that showcases the band's knack for channeling restless emotion into minimalist electrified momentum. This is punk rock for the new school.Revolver exclusive translucent red vinyl limited to 50 copies.

As long as there has been music, the form has been used as a vehicle for storytelling. Artists who have something to say often find that putting it into music is the ideal means of communicating thoughts and feelings to others. And the concept-album form is a logical extension of that storytelling impulse, often writ large. It allows the writer to tackle bigger themes, more involved story lines, more finely textured characters and ideas.In the pages of WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA, author Bill Kopp explores 30 remarkable concept albums, drawing on new, firsthand interviews with the artists behind their creation.Author of the critically acclaimed Disturbing The Peace, Kopp turns us down the darkest road of musical blind-spots yet, the concept album, a previously shunned genre, now worthy of your curiosity. And then you hear something like Ogden's Nut Gone Flake, and The Turtles Present Battle of the Bands, or S.F. Sorrow, and you're REALLY second-guessing yourself now, right? As it turns out, there's something genuinely interesting about this "concept" in itself, and it lends us a look into a world when musical creativity really had been unleashed in its full glory. Yes, those extravagances produced much audio garbage, but very few people even get that chance anymore, despite the ease of home recording. Even Capatain Sensible and The Church commited this 'big ideas' into noteworthy efforts, along with Hawkwind, William Shatner, Ghostface Killa, and of course, Pete Townshend, who graciously offers an exclusive interview here.

***In 1996, The Wedding Present released Mini—an EP featuring six tracks that all had connections to motoring. Almost thirty years on, David Gedge has revisited the concept with Maxi, a brand-new, six-track EP which is again loosely based around the theme of driving. But this time… the result is significantly more expansive.Maxi arrives swiftly after the release of 40 a commemorative reflection of The Wedding Present’s complex and fascinating catalogue across four-vinyl and four-CD formats, with the compilation’s final track being ‘Hot Wheels’—a track from Maxi.Although Maxi follows the same concept as Mini, the 2025 model of The Wedding Present’s vehicle is discernibly grander, with Gedge hinting that guitarist Rachael Wood—who was new to the band at the time of writing —might be one of the reasons why. ‘Scream, If You Want To Go Faster’—the opening track—mesmerises with a slow-building, post-rock feel before it revs up to set the EP’s tone and flows into the infectious riff of ‘Grand Prix’—itself driven forward by the complexities of Wood’s playing.‘Hot Wheels’ and ‘Two For The Road’ – tracks three & four – are unmistakably Wedding Present. Gedge’s urgent guitar playing and lyrics shine their headlights on the challenges of the heart, and allow the listener to return to terra firma with a more familiar sound that effortlessly stands alongside classic Wedding Present releases. ‘Interceptor’ – track five – is steered by the bass until a roaring guitar and pounding drums shift gears to bring the listener back full circle to the post-rock...

It's not exactly like Pee Wee Herman fronting the Gang of Four, but it's probably as close as anyone needs to get to that. And, while the Misfits pastiche on the cover may be what initially grabs the consumer by the eyeball, the fact that the band is posing in front of a Red Owl grocery store should indicate that things are not what they seem.

***The sophomore effort from Green Bay's clown princes of dorkwave adds a further level of muscle behind their punk/new wave outbursts, and also finds the band admitting that they have listened to Cars, Dickies, and Wire records of their own free will. Occasionally at the same time! If you can figure out what disease this is, they'll probably name it after you. Shop Smarter! 2023 release.

***Melding lo-fi punk with early new wave and self-effacing absurdity, this initial effort from Green Bay's Smart Shoppers treads an unlikely middle ground between the Crucifucks and the B-52's. Songs are kept short to align with modern attention spans. Includes Rev. Nørb (Boris The Sprinkler, MRR, Razorcake) to thrill the world's eight remaining pop-punk enthusiasts, and Joe from the Last Sons of Krypton to capture that lucrative '90s garage punk market.

***In a bold move to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album, Local H are proud to release reFISTED, a complete re-recording of their 1995 classic, Ham Fisted. This isn't just a reissue; it's a defiant do-over. Founder / frontman Scott Lucas describes the new album as a "fistfight with myself at 24 years old" and decided to take on the challenging process of revisiting and reimagining songs written three decades ago. The band treated the original recording like a demo, while reFISTED sees them sometimes radically reworking and rearranging tracks, and other times aiming to produce even meaner, heavier versions of the originals. reFISTED was recorded and mixed with Greg Norman (Russian Circles, Neurosis, Kim Deal, Andrew Bird) at Steve Albini’s legendary studio, Electrical Audio, a conscious decision by Lucas to recast the record as an early '90s Touch & Go release.To bring new life to these songs, Lucas brought in a host of collaborators representing the band's entire history and a fresh wave of talent. reFISTED features guest appearances from past bandmates and musicians Lucas has worked with in other projects, including Eric Oblander (Five Horse Johnson, Clutch) and Max Crawford (Poi Dog Pondering). The album also introduces "new blood" like Deanna Belos of Sincere Engineer and the members of Tuff Sudz, ensuring the record feels both nostalgic and vital. reFISTED is a testament to Local H’s enduring power and a fresh take on the raw energy that launched them into rock n’ roll history.Pressed on oriole...

***LP version. Abdou El Omari was born in 1945 in Tafraout, south of Agadir—a village suspended between the pink granite peaks of the Anti-Atlas and the waves of the Atlantic. A landscape already musical in itself. He grew up in the dry mountain light, surrounded by the rhythms of nature and Berber's culture. Very little is known about the man—a veil of mystery still surrounds his life, only deepening the fascination. In the 1970s, as Morocco was transforming, Abdou El Omari shaped a sound of his own—a visionary blend of spiritual jazz, psychedelic funk, Moroccan traditions, and early electronic experimentation. Today, his work is resurfacing, rediscovered by a new generation of listeners in search of lost horizons. This record stands among its rarest and most precious fragments. At twenty-two, he founded his first group, Les Fugitifs, which gained him local fame. Soon after, he released records and cassettes on labels such as Cléopâtre, Hassania, Boussiphone, Hilali, and his own, Al Awtar, while performing on RTM (national radio and television). He also composed for artists like Naima Samih, Laila Ghofran, and Aicha El Waad. In 1976, through the label Gam, he released his only vinyl album, Nuits d'été—a record that would become cult decades later, reissued in 2017 by Radio Martiko. In the 1980s, his music grew quieter, more secret. He tried to recover his old tapes from the studios he had recorded in, but gradually withdrew from the scene and returned to hairdressing. A pioneer of musical fusion, he opened...

***Ile de Garde isn't just a clever pun paying homage to the blessed German mystic and jack-of-all-trades, Hildegarde Von Bingen It's the name chosen by three women freshly signed to Born Bad / Carpaccio Cathédrale, who came bearing gifts: six synth-wave tracks based on a drum/keyboard/spoken word line-up. It won't be for everyone, and that's just as well. More of a narrator than a singer, Klara Coudrais performs the lyrics, embodies characters, and puts on a show, in French and in English. Controlled and clinical anger, putting facts in order, whether it's settling scores with some violent bloke or scrutinize a couple on the path to a breakup—Sylvia Plath meets Diamanda Galás, heckling the audience gently. It sometimes flirts with singing, with reinforcement coming up as backing vocals. Neither John nor Karen Carpenter, Cécile Aurégan layers synths to produce dense, enveloping soundscapes. It's a full starter-main-dessert, but the trio has a strong stomach. Morgane Poulain peacefully taps away at her drums. Track after track, no-frills post-post punk for your ears, with a few surprises. Ile de Garde takes the floor, body-wise. Rage Blossom is a beginning, and you have to be there.

"When I was approached by Riding Easy Records about this project, I'm not sure they understood exactly what they'd done. They turned over Twenty-One volumes and over three hundred files of post hippie, aggressive, apocalyptic and psychedelic rock, funk metal and said, "do your thing.” What was supposed to be a quick flip turned into a 7-month project. I laughed, I cried, I broke shit and put it all back together again. And I mean that, literally and figuratively. Because, y'all, halfway through this labor of funk, my studio flooded. I was then relocated, that’s including 15k records, demo'ed, remodeled, rebuilt and moved back. Not once did I stop working. This ain't no micro dose, this is two tabs, double dipped. So this time, take the brown acid." - Mr. DibbsBrown Acid is the longest running compilation series collecting obscure, heavy underground rock tracks from the late 1960s through the mid 1970s, released by RidingEasy Records in collaboration with Owner of Permanent Records Lance Barresi and RidingEasy Owner Daniel Hall. It focuses on hard rock, proto-metal, heavy psych, stoner-ish acid rock, and early proto-punk from bands that usually only managed to release a lone demo 45 or self-released single before disappearing into obscurity. Framed as a kind of “post-hippie, pre-punk” document, the series digs up and properly licenses these forgotten cuts, presenting them as numbered “Trips” that function both as a historical excavation of a lost heavy rock underground and as a cult-favorite listening experience for modern fans of fuzzed-out,...

***Driving is a huge part of rock and roll’s enduring mythology. Images of cruising down the highway with friends and lovers while basking in the freedom of the open road pervade pop music’s lyrical canon. Yet, so often, these idealized images clash with the everyday drudgery of being a motorist: traffic jams, detours, and bad news on the radio.This tension is central to Motorists’ sound—as much about the colourful possibilities of life as it is about the way those possibilities are boxed in by technologies. It’s clear that, for the band, creative collaboration is the only way to break the tension. In a world where everyone’s been in their own bubble, Motorists have pushed theirs together and worked through feelings of isolation as a group, to the tune of jangly guitars, infectious power pop hooks, and a steady motorik beat. The result is an album (the band's third) full of revelations about what it means to be together, and how bad you want it when you’re being torn apart.

***"There is a scene in the BBC Krautrock documentary that made a great impression on me. Iggy Pop sits spread eagle in some beachside location drilling holes in coconuts and ruminating on the sound of Neu. The clash of the visual spectacle and the subject matter infected my dreams. At one point he describes Neu as 'pastoral psychedelicism'. I thought of that moment when Buz first played me the demo for the song which would become 'Heat', when first he asked me to play music with him. I heard it, smelled the fresh coconut juice and the sour sweat on Iggy's leathery hide. I knew that we would do it right. I moved to Sydney at the end of 2022. It was toward the end of two years of Melbourne lockdown that started in the immediate wake of the Total Control tour of Japan at the end of 2019 and was the longest time in 20 years that I had not travelled overseas or played music. After moving to Sydney I had an overwhelming need to start a new band and sing again. Total Control and Straightjacket Nation would be difficult to gather any momentum with my living interstate, and also I wanted to settle here and start something new and try and obliterate some of the stasis that entered my veins from the lockdown. Low Life asked me to play a solo show with Iceage at the opera house, but I had no ambitions for solo performance and had...

***GROSSEST NATIONAL PRODUCT (GNP) formed in 1982 in Birmingham, Alabama and were one of the state’s first hardcore punk bands, playing garage-y thrash with lyrics inspired by the comedic acidity of the Ramones or Dead Kennedys. Classic 1980’s teenage thrash, the band was a constant, encouraging presence in the Birmingham punk scene for nearly three decades, opening shows for the Meat Puppets, GBH, Life Sentance, Maggot Sandwich, The Accused and many more.A wild cast of hilarious characters, the band rarely left the city limits, even less often the state and left few recordings, but tracked a classic demo tape in 1985 featuring some of their best songs “Reggie’s a Veggie”, “Ready To Ralph”, “Rabid Lassie”. The demo is presented in its entirety, pre-mastered by WILL KILLINGSWORTH at Dead Air studios with vinyl mastering by ANNE-MARIE SUENRAM. Packaged with photos and flyers from the band's first three years, and an additional lyric sheet insert with extensive liner notes and band history from guitarist CHRIS HENDRIX.

***Rikk Agnew's All by Myself is one of those records that feels like a secret you're lucky to stumble upon—a raw, weird, totally personal snapshot of a restless artist at a pivotal moment. Originally released in 1982 on Frontier Records, the album stands apart from most of what was coming out of Southern California at the time, even though it was born right in the middle of the exploding hardcore punk scene. By 1982, Rikk Agnew was already a big deal underground. As the guitarist for Adolescents, he helped shape the sound of Orange County hardcore with sharp riffs, surf-inflected melodies, and a sense of urgency that became hugely influential. He also played in bands like D.I. and later Christian Death, moving fluidly between hardcore punk, post-punk, and darker, more experimental territory. Agnew wasn't just a fast, aggressive guitarist —he was a songwriter with range, curiosity, and a strong DIY instinct. All by Myself lives up to its title in the most literal way. Agnew recorded the album largely on his own, playing all the instruments and handling vocals himself. Instead of delivering another straight-up hardcore record, he went inward. The result is a lo-fi, home-recorded collection of songs that blend punk energy with new wave, post-punk, psychedelic touches, and even moments of pop sensitivity. It's rough around the edges, but that's exactly the point—the album feels intimate, unfiltered, and honest. In the early '80s, Southern California punk was loud, fast, and often confrontational. Bands were pushing against the mainstream...

***Fort Not, the Swedish songwriting duo of Robert Carlsson and Fredrik Söderström, return with their new album You On Repeat on Meritorio Records. Joined by bandmates Philip Gates, David Hansson, and Joakim Björnberg, the group recorded the album over a hot summer weekend in a barn near Sweden’s west coast—an environment that left its mark on the record’s warmth, immediacy, and unfiltered charm.You On Repeat is a bittersweet indie pop record where jangly and distorted guitars, lo-fi textures, and disarming melodies meet. Rooted in a DIY spirit inspired by ’90s indie rock and classic pop songwriting, the album moves fluidly between noise and tenderness, urgency and ease, capturing a band equally attuned to raw emotion and crafted hooks. Long regarded as one of Sweden’s best-kept indie secrets—as praised by Swedish music magazine GAFFA—Fort Not are ready to step fully into the light. With You On Repeat, that secret is finally revealed.

***Behold! Lost Goat’s fourth and final album The Dirty Ones is now available on vinyl!Originally released in 2001 by Tee Pee Records on CD format only, this atom-smashing fusion of Metal, Blues, Doom and Psychedelic riffs can now be experienced in the format it was always intended to be heard... on the sweet sound of vinyl.Lost Goat was birthed in 1994 in the SF Bay Area underground music scene. It was a golden age before the distractions of smart phones and social media prevailed; when in-real-life and tangible experiences were all that existed. Epic rock shows happened daily in every smoky bar, club, and in basements and warehouses all around the Bay Area. In these spaces Punks, Crusties, Metalheads, and Freaks commingled, and all were welcome. Out of this stew of musical influences, alchemy happened, and Lost Goat was born, creating a sound that was uniquely their own.The band would spend the next eight years recording and releasing four albums, three 7” records, and tour with bands like High On Fire, Neurosis, Unsane, L7, Dead Moon, and many other luminaries of heavy rock music at that time.However, all things must come to an end, and so in 2003, Lost Goat disbanded when Erica Stolz decided to move back to her home in NYC. The band members would remain close and go on to pursue other professional and musical endeavors. And in that same time, significant world events and new technologies would occur forever transforming the way of life and music...

This is the first widely distributed release for Isabel Pine after a series of self released EPs and singles on Bandcamp. She studied classical music on viola from the age of 3 through into college, where she was on a path to be a performer in a large ensemble, but eventually left after feeling frustrated and limited in a world that did not provide much of an outlet for individual creativity. But the doors of perception really opened when she moved to British Columbia and was exposed to the raw beauty of the wilderness there.She began recording at home using a basic audio setup along with a cello, viola, violin and double bass, and spent time making field recordings of natural sounds in BC. Her next idea was to actually move into nature to record, curious as to “how it would sound if I recorded outside entirely, with the natural reverb and sounds of the environment in the recording from the very beginning. The rustling of the leaves or a raven’s beating wings were as integral to the music as whatever I played.”Fables is a mix of pieces that were recorded in the fall of 2024, in a small, remote cabin and outside, primarily using stringed instruments. The result is a series of stunning vignettes, meditations patiently unfurling like gentle waves, slowly advancing and retreating.

Ushering in a new era, Berlin based, New Zealand heavy psych duo Earth Tongue lower the castle gates on their third album Dungeon Vision, a trove of fuzz-drenched anthems produced by garage rock luminary Ty Segall in Los Angeles. Guitarist Gussie Larkin and drummer Ezra Simons spent the Berlin winter of 2025 refining the album’s twelve tracks in their self-described “windowless cave” rehearsal space, crafting a record that channels both isolation and the duo’s live intensity. With the songs finally taking shape and a studio deadline looming, they flew to Los Angeles to turn their hard-won ideas into the real thing. Once there, the band and Ty captured lightning in a bottle, recording and mixing Dungeon Vision in just ten days at Altamira Sound. Tracked live to tape, Dungeon Vision pulses with human energy, fuzz guitars, bone-battering drums, and hauntingly tuneful vocals. Ty Segall’s influence is all over the record with Ty choosing the best takes based on feel rather than technical perfection. The “king of fuzzy guitar tones” pushed the duo to find new sonic textures while championing their raw chemistry. “Ty’s been a big driving force,” says Ezra. “We supported him in New Zealand back in 2023, and he’s backed us ever since even bringing us on tour through Europe and the UK in 2024.” Since their emergence in 2016, Earth Tongue’s world-building, visuals, and relentless touring have earned them global attention and a cult-like following.

***REISSUED!!! "Kashyyyk was originally released in late 1995. Each copy was recorded onto a blank cassette, almost never new. We'd find boxes of tapes at flea markets and dub the demo over one side of them. Never knew what was on the other side. The collage on the cover evolved over time. Early copies had a sparse cover and later copies had a cover collages like this one. The text also changed over time. Edits were made, the thanks list grew, and the address changed. The text on this rereleases is the same as the last copies made in the '90s, with only tiny changes. Three of these songs were recorded in August of 1995 and originally released as the 8D8 demo. We made an unknown number of copies before we recorded again with Matt on guitar. We added our three new songs to the old and named the demo demo after Chewbacca's home planet. The other collages were put together specifically for this 30th anniversary release. Bonus track: Gage recorded January 19, 1996. This is the original version with Matt on vocals.

If Cathedral is one of Nigel Ayers' most celestially minded records, then Invocation of the Beast Gods is among his most ritualistic. We start at full throttle with suffocating tension before giving way to an uneasy release. "Tranquil" this is not, but Ayers' delicate touch allows him to explore the full breadth of the album title's implications — here you will find moments of whimsy, contemplation, and full-bore reckoning. No Holiday is pleased to offer Invocation of the Beast Gods alongside our reissue of Cathedral from earlier this year as a single LP on clear-and-black marbled vinyl.

Group Rhoda returns to Dark Entries with Phase 5, a new LP of synthesizer-driven art-pop. An integral member of the West Coast electronic music scene, Mara Barenbaum has been writing, performing, and plunging into oneiric depths as Group Rhoda since 2009. Barenbaum’s songcraft is at once stylistically diffuse and laser-focused, a synesthetic approach that allows her to effortlessly glide between genres and soundworlds while centering her singular poetics. On Phase 5, her fifth LP as Group Rhoda, we find Barenbaum waxing nondualistic. Lines between fairytale and fact, between nature and art, between subject and object all dissolve under contemplation. The songs on Phase 5 are perpetually in-between states, deftly shifting form at the blink of an eye. With sleight of hand, “Field Tone” transmutes from brooding John Carpenter-esque electro into vocoder-driven space disco. “Dragon Pine” darts from cosmic dub to cybernetic dancehall and back again. The uptempo darkwave-leaning number “Aeolian Crossing” dissolves into the void, like sand falling through one’s fingers, like a retreating wave. The cover artwork for Phase 5 is by Shawn Reed, and features purple lilies and light refracted through water. All songs on this album were mastered by Ruud Lekx. The digital version of Phase 5 will be released via Katabatik, a label and sound system that Barenbaum has had close ties to for the past decade.

“One foot out the door, another in the otherworld...” So begins Hannah Lew’s debut, self-titled solo record, soaked in imperious, wide-eyed pop songwriting and a girl-group/post punk aesthetic that belies the artist’s history in the U.S. underground. A towering, hook-laden album, it’s infused with an optimism and surrealism that conversely deals with the times we find ourselves in. Recorded at home in Richmond, CA and in The Best House studio with Maryam Qudus in Oakland CA, with the assistance of a crack team of West Coast musicians, this album sees Hannah Lew stepping out from behind the legacy of her two groups Grass Widow and Cold Beat. While musically bearing similarities with her previous work, Hannah Lew is a bold leap into direct pop territory, making ample use of a vocal style that teases out the inherent melancholy in her melodies. Mastered by Sarah Register, each song is a perfectly honed nugget that frequently pulls the heart in two directions at once. Themes of change, breaking up, shattering old ways of being are shot through the record. For the front cover, a photograph of the artist’s face was printed, ripped up and re-assembled, resembling the creative process embarked upon by Lew for her first “solo” material. The album feels instinctual, almost dream-like in its assemblage of sweeping synths and pulsating, propulsive drum machine beat patterns with Lew’s vocal performances sensitive and caressing over the top. Increasingly relying on the subconscious and dreams to guide her creative process, Hannah Lew frequently...

The late pedal-steel guitarist Susan Alcorn leaves a final surprise hinting at new directions left underexplored on her collaboration with Nomad War Machine, the improvising metal duo of drummer Julius Masri and guitarist James Reichard. Their death-metal-influenced pummel adds new fire to her molten flow across a suite of improvised tracks that show off the vast range and simpatico of the trio. Julius Masri and James Reichard of Nomad War Machine: “An unexpected opportunity arose out of a catching-up conversation where Susan had revealed a recent fascination with death metal, confessing, ‘I’m 70 years old—I think about death!’ She had learned a couple of Arch Enemy songs on her pedal steel, particularly compelled by their frontwoman’s intensity and vigor as a performer. Voicing an appreciation for the hook-oriented sound of Swedish death metal made sense for a melodic thinker whose roots as veteran pedal steel player reached into the Texan Western swing circuit in the ’60s and ’70s. For her, ever the explorer, metal was a new, appealing point of departure into fresh musical territory. When she expressed an interest in playing with Nomad War Machine, it felt like there was a whole world of shared or complementary interests to explore.” Though known for her fluency in jazz, country, and free improvisation, Alcorn had also studied Arabic, the oud, and maqam, with all holding a deep curiosity for her.

Like a black wind rising off peatlands long left to silence, Ireland’s Coscradh unearth their second album Carving The Causeway To The Otherworld, wrenching up the bog-roads of the dead through dread sorcery. An invocation of deep-rooted heritage and ancient mysticism the album resurrects the six-thousand-year-old oaken pathways raised by warring tribes under the cold eye of the druid, toward the realm beyond life, and conjuring these vanished labors with the memory of violence itself. Channeling the druid as both astronomer and war-seer, Coscradh invokes Mars as the god whose red light demands sacrifice, revealing Gaelic warriors hollowing themselves into vessels and letting the fury of Goac enter and devour them for battle. Guitars flare and burn like meteors knifing the horizon, letting loose riffs rusted with ancestral power. The blistering percussive onslaught crashes like hooves on dead earth as the band’s savage ferocity erupts like a war-cry cast into the heavens, crowned in ruinous splendor. Coscradh fully inhabits this domain between worlds, breathing into their work the fury and spiritual force of a people who carved truths into land, sky and grave. A communion of druidic science and blood, ritual aggression and linguistic resurrection, Carving The Causeway To The Otherworld compels a celestial reckoning where fate itself is flung upon the altar. Like gods that ride the firmament, Coscradh’s cold cruel radiance falls upon all who hear it. The record is a cosmic execution, binding together the bygone causeways, war gods, stone idols and star-born forces that the druids...

There's a tendency in metal to mistake aggression for honesty, volume for depth. To confuse the performance of darkness with its actual weight. Hidden Fires Burn Hottest, the new album from San Francisco-based post-black metal band Bosse-de-Nage, sidesteps this entirely. It’s the group’s most fully realized work yet, precisely because it refuses to be pinned down.Bosse-de-Nage have been working with The Flenser for over fifteen years. They were one of the first bands the label ever partnered with and have the longest active relationship in the label's history. But unlike most bands who build momentum through constant touring and visibility, Bosse-de-Nage has largely existed apart from the music world's usual machinery. They've evolved on their own terms, in relative isolation, allowing the work to develop without outside pressure or influence. What began rooted in black metal anonymity has mutated into something that actively defies categorization. The aggression is still there, but it's no longer the point.Hidden Fires Burn Hottest finds the band treating emotions like physical objects, feelings with spatial properties. “No Such Place" describes a space that can't exist but does anyway, somewhere between thought and location. "Immortality Project" examines infinite possibility not as promise but as problem, endless options collapsing under their own weight. These songs don't use metaphor to describe emotion. They make emotion into something you could theoretically touch.Tracked by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Oathbreaker) at Atomic Garden East and mixed and mastered by Richard Chowenhill of Agriculture, Hidden Fires Burn Hottest was years in development, with...

***Born in 2023, Boyswitch is a four-piece, two spirit punk band on Huichin Ohlone land (aka Oakland, California). Fusing punk, post-punk, grunge, and sometimes ska, Boyswitch is here to make you gay and shake up the world. With a sold out first show in January 2024, the band has been busy performing, writing and recording music. Boyswitch has shared the stage with iconic bands like Trap Girl, Destroy Boys, Commando, and Fatale. You may have seen them play sold out shows at Thee Stork Club and the Independent, or witnessed their queer debauchery on the live music stage at Folsom Street Fair. This unapologetically transgender band is making waves in the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and is gearing up for recording in the new year.Queer Without Fear features six songs that will get you dancing, moshing, and feeling sexy. The songs were recorded and produced in Oakland, California by Elke Gentile. The songs aim to be outside of the norm and bring out the true raw experiences of trans two spirit T-boys surviving on Huichin Ohlone land. The vinyl also features an unreleased version of “T-Boy”.The band fuses high energy on stage and paired with the power of the lyrics, calls everyone in for movement in their bodies. Some of the songs are prayer songs, and others about living as a queer person in society without fear. This project is a prayer to the community, trans youth, and to loved ones. The band hopes to inspire other trans queer artists....

Can’t go over it. Can’t go under it. Gotta go through it. And somewhere out there in the Pitch black beyond all darkness lies Peace & Purpose. The horizon you never quite crest until the inevitable end. Breathe deep — this fearful moment is the most alive you’re ever gonna feel.For the last decade, Crack Cloud’s vision has grown ever more expansive, more cinematic. Last go around, they dropped from The Heavens and then performed with their bare backs to an endless darkening desert. Now they’ve crammed all that life into some metallic and strange object called Peace & Purpose.All the terror of living. All the helplessness. All the raw human will. All glued and screwed and locked into this impossible tactile shape of dungeon dub; sour milk vox; Avant-protest music.Music armwrestling itself to the ground. Far afield of beauty. The discordant symphony of factory farming and grim timber of the meat processing plant. The grinding din of the cogs. And yet, never giving up in spite of all good sense. Even in death, we are a coterie of survivors. Look now: There’s Terry Fox on his one-legged Marathon of Hope across The Great White North while cancer spreads through his lungs. A self-annihilating drive to feel alive. Rage against the dying of the light, they say. Well, how ‘bout it then!??!Peace & Purpose is not in any way some art project meditation on Punk Rock. It is Punk Rock. Terrifying, inspiring, vital, invigorating and most importantly, utterly unexpected. Every...

Juan Ramos is up to bat for the next Körperspannung release with the four-track stunner EP Hard Bois. Deeply connected to the ongoing pursuit of gay excellence and endeavors, Juan honors those who have come before us and touches us deeply in our soft spots at all the right moments.Across Hard Bois EP, the Berlin resident and behind the scenes operator (IYKYK) shows precisely why he’s one of dance music’s most exciting and dependable prospects. Opening the release, "Hard Bois" combines snaking drums in a melange of samples with bff Kris Baha vocalizing sizzling and snaking lyrics winding around this propulsive club cut that could easily be a snapshot right out of a scene from Chicago’s iconic Medusa Club."Saviour Sound" is music that makes iron pipes sweat with hedonistic abandon. Exposed steel modulates to a hardcore beat. Gears interlock to move the whole building into autonomous shuffle. Conduits of electricity pulsate to the drama unfolding in a dim lit factory with dank corridors leading us on a path to a flowerbed growing and thriving in a subterranean hydroponic garden.On the flip, the alarm strikes and it’s (shout it out): "Werk Day"! This is your call to get buttoned up and ready to make dreams reality. Head to the gym, pump those guns and then house your body. Technological funk winding through a sturdy and rock hard kick that helps you ride through the chasms of pleasure and pain.Rounding out the release is your "Acid BB" rocking and roaring through the...

The EP Echolocation sees the debut of a new German artist: Len.Leo.Originally from his hometown of Mainz, and now for a few years a Berlin resident, Len.Leo's Echolocation comes to Bézier's recently launched record label Körperspannung.In their shared concrete home inside Friedrichshain, Bézier and Len.Leo have built an immense production studio, in the heart of their apartment, around which they organize salons with friends and fam to cultivate dreams, new vocabulary to express wishes for the collective queer musical mosaic.Cut right from the cloth of a post-punk lineage, "Echolocation" burns and welds tracks into rails fitted for a high-speed lysergic bullet."Corrugation" is a subversive adventure into the wells of imagination weaving pulsating artifacts from an unknown era to craft sounds through atmospheric needlepoint.In "Radio Silence" cascading wings flutter through the diagrams of a sunken underground compound only to be discovered to be long abandoned, cut off from receiving transmissions for who knows how long?

The EP by Bézier Negative Velocity sees the Californian artist (now for a few years a Berlin resident) initiate the launch of their new German-based record label Körperspannung.Bézier, whose career (since the early 00’s) spans close to two decades of focused, ground laying work: from lighting up the Honey Soundsystem collective’s bulbs to generating a steady pulse of releases on Josh Cheon’s Dark Entries records, has built a dynamic repertoire weaving a mosaic of influences across cultures, generations and spaces. A lifelong learner of music from an early age Robert Yang has been under constant calling to deploy music in an artful, stylish and meaningful way.For ‘Negative Velocity’, Bézier collaborated with Bay Area drummer and avant-garde musician Dave Easlick taking live recordings of him on a drum kit warping and wrapping his parts into curves and ellipses that project mappings outward into the atmosphere. From Easlick’s source material Bézier generates a technological, multi-dimensional landscape through mental manipulation of sound waves bending the fabric of time and space. For both the title track and on the B-side ‘Diabolical Embroidery’ the lattice work here involved sampling and resampling every hit and puncture from Easlick to atomize, pressurize, polish and disintegrate into fine particulate matter while reassembling parts back together fortifying the sonic tapestry further and further and further…‘Deep Sea State’ is an exercise showcasing the raw form of Easlick’s drumming but laced with an adamantium frame. Melodies from Bézier’s musical training past haunt the entire interlude.

From the same recording sessions as Bézier’s first EP on Körperspannung records Negative Velocity, Contraption channels a few moods and scenarios.On the A-side "Contraption" is an insignificant droplet darting through the sky. Soon it joins a disarray of objects positioned above the atmosphere, maneuvers in formation to reveal randomized, decentralized nodes packed for mayhem.On the B-side Bézier shows a slice of his lived experience. Back in 2004 he used to go to house parties around East LA with friends they grew up with every weekend to listen to music. Winding through the Southern Californian roadway sprawl they’d drive 1/2 an hour to 1 hour on the I-10 (sometimes diverting to Route 60 if gridlock is expected) to get to the location, usually in a residential neighborhood. Being respectful of the communities and the struggle of the progenitors of this music, Bézier presents "Blue Halo" as an homage to that sound with a twist: Cumbia-Synth to provide a little sauce for your ears. Dave Easlick joins the milieu to provide a percussive framework for this tune.Lastly, "Bit by an Electric Wire" showcases Easlick’s drumming with an overlay from Bézier. As Dave rips and shreds through his drum kit the OCD machine living inside Yang’s brain switches on and organizes, collates and files that dataset into a hardcore rhythm track.

***Robert Stillman didn’t set out to make a concept album about Steve Jobs. But as a composer and improviser whose music asks questions about his relationship with reality, a curiosity about the promises and follies of technology took him there.Following an intuitive path from James Bridle’s acclaimed book on non-human intelligence Ways of Being to the seminal 1995 essay “The California Ideology”, Stillman arrived at Walter Isaacson’s biography of Apple founder Steve Jobs – and what would become the catalyst for his new album.“10,000 Rivers points to an alternative narrative about a man who is tormented by the instability of his reality, so tries to invent his way out of it,” Stillman explains. “Ultimately, his tech designs become expressions of his will to replace the messy, disordered, temporary nature of the world with something that strives to be barely physical: streamlined, symmetrical, uncomplicated, and deathless.”Highly original, wholly unclassifiable, 10,000 Rivers is part cultural critique, part sonic biography and takes the form of a series of songs, instrumentals and abstract soundscapes that respond directly to moments or paradigms from Jobs’ life.Stylistically, it leans on Stillman’s relationship with the smooth music of Billy Ocean, Gloria Estefan and 10cc from the ‘80s and early ‘90s, made at what he calls “the knife’s edge between the human and the digital.”

This was a festival organized by the Brotherhood of Eternal Love (aka the "Hippie Mafia") who you might know from the book or documentary "Orange Sunshine". they were the biggest suppliers of high potency LSD in the world and they put on this concert as a sort of "West Coast Woodstock" and they even flew a plane over the crowd and dropped Christmas cards containing tabs of acid on the crowd! The music is several psych/blues rock/ acid folk bands unknowns and its a pretty solid audience recording with lots of in-between song rants and announcements. Really a wild listen! This reissue has a new handmade cover including a stamped patch of acid blotter paper and is limited to 300 copies!"Completely preposterous 'fan club' reissue of what was unauthorized to begin with: live documentation of unknown bands playing a Christmas day festival organized by the Brotherhood of Eternal Love Hippie Mafia. Crude lo-fi biker rock, Hendrixian blow outs, scuzz blues, elongated Cream-y jams, and earnest folk, interspersed with on-stage rants from assorted wasteoids, Black Panthers, and maniacs.

***A bizarrely entrancing jewel from the depths of the Japanese underground, Doo Dah Nean was originally released in small run of hand assembled cassettes by the La Musica label in the late '90s. The album is the sole release and evidence of Nean, an entirely under-the-radar trio that crossed the sensual, disassociated female vocals of Japanese iroke kayōkyoku music with off-balance shamanic rhythm and echoing electronic rumble. Nean were the trio of Yui on bass and electronics, Naoko on voice, and Non on drums. Both Yui and Non were also part of Holy Angels, and Yui played with Ohkami No Jikan and Mauduit Nuit. Vocalist Naoko, in her lone recorded appearance anywhere, elevates the proceedings to peak outsider strangeness. Her ultra-repetitive chants and sighs balance childlike innocence with sinister knowing. Alternately distracted and humming to herself or delivering breathy, near field whispers, the simple juxtaposition of her vocalizations with Non's stumble-drunk drums, and the amorphous blobs and gloops of tone unleashed from Yui's instruments lands like an avant garde, proto-ASMR incantation. A truly confounding release in a La Musica catalogue that's not exactly thin on the ground for such form. Housed in die-cut "Uni-Pak" style gatefold with metallic gold ink and soft touch finishes with printed inner sleeve. Vinyl pressed at RTI. Additional mastering by Timothy Stollenwerk, Stereophonic mastering lacquers by Phillip S. Rodriguez. Elysian masters executive produced by Peter Kolovos.

Pleasure, shame, and survival often arrive tangled together, indistinguishable in the moment. Camgirl, from Crippling Alcoholism, takes that entanglement as its starting point. Rather than separating desire from damage, the record allows them to coexist, tracing a path through obsession, performance, and persistence without offering clean resolution.Camgirl is the 2025 breakthrough album from Boston’s Crippling Alcoholism, a record that frames pop immediacy against obsession, endurance, and collapse. Built from ear-wormy hooks and abrasive noise rock textures, the album smuggles grotesque and confrontational subject matter into songs that remain deliberately melodic. Pleasure and revulsion blend throughout, with choruses that linger even as the lyrics refuse comfort.Released on September 12, 2025, Camgirl follows a loose narrative centered on a sex worker moving through cycles of exploitation and survival, treating intimacy as spectacle and visibility as threat. Songs flicker between desire and despair, confession and performance, flooded with artificial light. Despite its subject matter, the record resists nihilism. Its closing moments arrive quietly triumphant, not through escape or redemption, but through persistence itself.Originally released on vinyl by Portrayal of Guilt Records, the first pressing of Camgirl sold out quickly. The Flenser reissue makes the album widely available for the first time, reaffirming it as a defining statement from a band operating at the intersection of pop form, noise, and lived experience.

***The return of Cleveland Ohio's songwriter laureate with the first LP of unreleased music in 13 years. Bill Fox fronted the power-pop band The Mice and won acclaim with solo albums Shelter From the Smoke and Transit Byzantium; his new album Resonance has won national acclaim and been featured in multiple reputable periodicals as a triumphant return to music.With his first LP since the re-issue of 2017’s Before I Went to Harvard, Bill Fox won international acclaim with 2025’s Resonance (Eleventh Hour Recording Company), a collection of never-before heard tracks that span his career. Sequenced, restored, and remastered into a cohesive statement, Resonance was hailed as “full of sharp lyrics, vivid imagery, crushing confessions, and endearing musical flourishes” (Pitchfork) with tracks such as Terminal Way being “a great example of his knack for McCartney-like pop craftsmanship” (Uproxx).Known for both his beloved solo releases Shelter From the Smoke and Transit Byzantium as much as his power-pop garage group with brother Tommy in The Mice, Fox has long been admired by fellow musicians and music fans alike who have praised his plainspoken lyricism and melodic instinct. Much like those critically heralded releases, “Resonance is uniformly excellent and presents an ideal entry point for newcomers” (Uproxx).A study in contrasts: stark acoustic confessionals sit alongside bursts of power-pop energy, Resonance’s fidelity ranges from cassette hiss to studio clarity. Songs like “Lift Your Heads,” and “Meat Factory” showcase Fox’s gift for blending social commentary with timeless melody, while “Wildflower” blooms with Guided By Voice’s Doug...

***Eleventh Hour Recording Co. presents a remarkable reissue that gathers together a wealth of otherwise unreleased Bill Fox material, offering listeners a deeper glimpse into the songwriter’s singular world. This compilation showcases Fox at his most versatile, moving effortlessly between intimate folk balladry and sharp-edged power pop, while also highlighting his collaborative spirit through rare tracks with The Radio Flyers.The collection features standout folk songs that exemplify Fox’s plainspoken poetry and melodic instinct, including “Standing On Nothing Now,” “Greenlove,” “On The Way,” and the aching “Chain To Your Heart.” A cover of Peter Laughner’s “Baudelaire” is reimagined with Fox’s understated delivery, while two traditional folk numbers add texture, even if they feel less essential. The real revelation, however, comes with the inclusion of three Radio Flyers tracks: “I Only Did It Cuz I Felt So Lonely,” penned by Wally Bryson is pure power-pop brilliance; Fox’s own “Alienated” brims with urgency and bite; and “Whenever I” closes their contribution with another undeniable gem.What makes this reissue so compelling is its patchwork quality. Like much of Fox’s catalog, it embraces imperfection, balancing lo-fi intimacy with flashes of studio clarity. The sequencing allows the listener to move between hushed folk confessionals and full-band energy, creating a dynamic portrait of an artist who has always resisted easy categorization. For longtime admirers, the Radio Flyers tracks alone make this a must-have; for newcomers, the folk songs provide an accessible entry point into Fox’s enduring craft.This release is more than a stopgap or curiosity—it’s a vital...

***The fifth album by The Freak Accident, The Midnight Show, expands the known universe of what the SF band is capable of. The heavy parts are heavier, the punk parts are punkier, the noise is noisier and the improv parts are improvier; while somehow simultaneously creating the catchiest Freak Accident album to date. Ralph Spight (Victims Family, Guantanamo School of Medicine - vocals/ guitar), Henry Austin Lannan (bass/ vocals), and Stark Raving Brad (drums/ vocals) have coalesced into a band that can & does go in whatever direction they please. The album kicks off with the tongue-in-cheek indie rock of "Don't Blame Me"—"sort of the point at which the lineup of The Freak Accident became a band, slogging through all the humiliations that only people who are music lifers can relate to", as Spight explains. This sets the stage for a wild ride: the synth-tinged melodic punk of "Fairytales", some dark garage-surf on "Busted Time Machine", some extended undersea sonic adventuring on "Gill Transplant", the pop-song-turned-noise-jam of "I'll Be Your Toilet" & the dissonant swing of "Down in The Dumps." "Fairytales" itself, as Spight notes, "is an exploration of the Hallmark-card images of Christianity... Musically, I just wanted it to be a straight ahead rocker with extra synth noises. And to take it over the top, why not add a drum solo? A drum solo, who does that?" The Freak Accident had an inside joke about having to play last at every show, which formed the basis of the lyrics...

***80% of the planet’s oceans remain unexplored by humans. The vastness, extreme pressure, cold temperatures and darkness of the underwater depths make it incredibly difficult to explore. New York independent record label Ever/Never Records has a solution—send Split Apex to traverse and survey the liquid expanse that covers the greater part of the Earth. What could go wrong? Unlike the crew who manned the ill- fated Titan submersible, the two members of Split Apex—Jussi Palmusaari (guitar, electronics, percussion) and Peter Blundell (voice, bass)—will navigate the oceanic abyss as if they were born to it. Split Apex makes music that thrives under pressure, a sonar- equipped manta ray that plunges so deep it emerges into an alien landscape few humans have witnessed. In other words, Split Apex leads listeners into unchartered waters and reveals sounds yet unheard.Split Apex formed in Autumn 2024 and quickly entered a sustained period of rehearsing and recording in Croydon, South London. Palmusaari came to London from his native Finland, where he played with Preesens during the late ‘90s and early 2000s. As for Blundell, Split Apex exists in a continuum that began with innovative beyond-rock trio Mosquitoes which led to his current work in Komare with Dominic Goodman (also from Mosquitoes). Following a self-released cassette earlier in 2025, Ever/Never commits Split Apex’s vinyl debut—Thoughts In 3D—to wax and it’s a late-breaking entry into the best album of the year conversation.

Binge & Purge was the band's first-ever U.S. album and remains a favorite of their legion of fans world-wide.

Originally released in 1985, the debut EP by The Mice still stands as one of the finer song-oriented rock records of that era. Drawing inspiration from both mid 1960s British Invasion groups and the energy of punk, For Almost Ever is about as scorching as an essentially pop record can be. Although vocalist / guitarist Bill Fox would go on to release several much-loved mostly acoustic solo records, here he is joined by his younger brother Tommy, a veritable monster on the drum kit, bashing away with both finesse and the manic energy of a high school kid.And let’s talk about the song “Not Proud of the USA.” Conceived as an answer to The Clash’s “I’m So Bored with the USA,” this track is packed with such overwhelming hooks, righteousness, and adrenaline that it’s irresistible. During the war in Iraq, it took on a new life on college radio and online when it was reissued on CD. And with this vinyl reissue, it would seem the timing is sadly spot-on once again.Mastered by John Golden, this new pressing crackles with The Mice’s spirit, reproduced in big 45 rpm sound for deeper low end and greater definition than the original, which has been commanding a steep price for quite a while now. We’ve also been able to restore the colors of the hand-colored cover photograph to their original vibrancy.

***For the first time since 1982 this legendary UK punk compilation is back on vinyl! All legends have a beginning, and this is the glorious start of the Riot City label, the first release which kicked off one of the greatest runs of punk releases of all time. Packed out with legends who would go on to define both the Riot City sound as well as the broader "UK82" genre, here you get early tracks from Vice Squad, Chaos UK, Expelled, Abrasive Wheels, and several others, some owing their only vinyl appearance to this compilation. A stunning snapshot of the creativity and political outrage boiling in Bristol's UK youth cult at the time, as well as a testament to the networking and vision of one of punk's greatest labels.

***Complete collection of all recordings spanning '84-'86 from this all cult, anarcho-hardcore outfit out of Ljubljana, Slovenia (formerly part of Yugoslavia). For only existing for a few years, this band of three women was surprisingly prolific, contributing to the legendary Hard-Core Ljubjana Compilation as well as their own classic Dezuje EP. A prime example of the dark, furious hardcore sound typified by Eastern Euro punks of the 80's, this collection is a loving tribute the the group's efforts. Features a heap of liner notes, clippings and photos to compliment the stellar musical onslaught.

The Scam were true outsiders, playing unhinged, raw hardcore a la United Mutation, Void, YDI and the like during the era when youth crew and crossover reigned. The Everything Ends in Rot EP has been a "secret weapon" of sorts in the obscurist ultracore arsenal for generations, but this is the first time the full session from that EP is presented along with the demo and compilation material on one vinyl collection. A truly horrific collection of mega hardcore hell.

***Scarcely heard 1983 demo from this obscure LA hardcore punk outfit. Not much is known about Immortals, beyond a few flyer appearances, but they played a brash, hard hitting brand of punk clearly influenced by British punk imports of the time. Thick guitars and a distinctively Colin GBH style vocal delivery coat the fist pumping motorcharged rhythms on this raw demo recording. Listening to a cut like "OK To Kill," you'd think this group could have built a legacy a la fellow Britcore obsessed Southern Californian groups like Final Conflict or Dr. Know, but alas, all we have to remember this group is this in-your-face recording.

Revered by 70's KBD cultists and first wave USHC fighters alike, the Cheifs may have not been around long, but their influence and raw, energetic bursts hold up nearly half a century after release. To match the legacy this EP garnered in the ensuing decades, this release is accompanied by a 128 page booklet and a never before heard bonus track--an alternate take of the title track.

***Fazed on a Pony is the alt country / indie rock recording project of New Zealand songwriter Peter McCall. swan is his second full-length album. On swan McCall sings with emotional immediacy, warmth, and wit about living honestly in the face of inevitable uncertainty and disappointment. McCall’s mix of wry humour, sincerity, and melodic instinct has drawn comparisons to MJ Lenderman, David Berman, and Sparklehorse. However, Fazed on a Pony lives within its own antipodean aesthetic and sound.Sonically, swan sees Fazed on a Pony expand from the Pavement-esque tuneful indie rock of previous releases to include pedal steel, fiddle, drum machines, and synthesisers. While there is a diversity of style, the album is rooted in the hallmarks of McCall’s music: uplifting and catchy guitar lines that serve the song, paired with arrangements that feel both comfortable and surprising. Where the lyrics tell a sad story, the music betrays that it might just be okay in the end.

***"Hey! Here's another cool late '70s punk-era LFD release from the vaults. These guys were a popular CB's/Max's band in New York back in the day, but due to mismanagement, their major label deal offers (of which there were several) were bungled so they never released anything other than a rare single produced by Wayne Kramer of the MC5. This album was recorded by Ed Stasium (Ramones,Talking Heads) in the Sire Records basement studio in 1979. They languished for 45 years until rediscovered in the Sire Archive at the Rock 'N Roll Hall Of Fame. The songs were digitized and remixed by Bob Stander and Ed Stasium earlier this year and will be available for the first time this October. Here's your chance to grab one before they're generally available! We appreciate your past support and thank you for helping us continue this labor of love."

***A 12-inch reissue of Detention’s rare, early-1980s punk/hardcore single,“Dead Rock ‘N Rollers” b/w “El Salvador” plus 7 additional songs, 4 of which are from the band’s out-of-print self-titled LP, while the others also were recorded in the early-1980s, but not released. All songs on this Mini LP or Maxi EP (take your pick) have been remastered at Enormous Door in Austin and the grooves cut at 45 RPM to achieve the highest fidelity and maximum punch. The tombstone art on the front cover of the original 45 by Jeff Jamieson has been resurrected for this release. If it looks familiar that’s because, like the NastyFacts EP art, it’s been ripped off... numerous times. Most famously, it appears on the cover of the Killed By Death Compilation #2.

***"Back in the 1970s, women in punk bands were far outnumbered by their male counterparts, and women who wrote punk songs were even more rare. Ramona Jan formed Comateens in 1978 with Nick Dembling. She wrote, played guitar and sang on the 2 songs included on this new, deluxe reissue, which includes liner notes by both Nick and Ramona. Nick sings lead on Danger Zone, Ramona on Elizabeth’s lover (which was recorded at the same time as Danger Zone, but not previously released). She left the band shortly after the release of the Comateens single to found the more New Wave-oriented Dizzy & The Romilars (think Waitresses, B-52s, the Flirts, etc..), who recorded and released their own version of Elizabeth’s Lover. In between, Ramona produced the “Drive My Car” EP by NastyFacts (Jimboco 1981/2022 Left For Dead reissue). If you like first wave punk, pop punk and alternative music made in a time when genres were still fluid and the rules had yet to be written, you’re going to love this record!"

***Cindytalk has remained a majestic proposition over the decades, one marked by a continued process of disintegration and regeneration. Change has been a constant for Cindytalk, as has been the presence of the Scottish musician Cinder, who has fronted the project since the early '80s. The first Cindytalk albums embraced a dark theatricality of post-punk dissonance and abject rock deconstruction that coupled industrial dirges with Cinder's beatific vocals, these same vocals that were once plied to the earliest This Mortal Coil and Cocteau Twins recordings,forever binding Cinder to the 4AD lore. But even on those albums, Camouflage Heart and In This World, Cinder was pushing the band to embrace the studio as a tool for further abstraction of sodden drones, cobwebbed dark elegance, and decayed textures. By the early aughts, Cinder had reimagined Cindytalk through the granular processes of digitalia with a handful of equally celebrated works of glitch-born expressionism for Editions Mego. Cinder explains that "those elements were growing roots under our sound and had started to organically change the shape of what we were doing. The fucked-up rock music was in retreat and the electro-acoustic abstractions were becoming apparent. Fast forward to the early part of the 21st Century and my first laptop. It seemed natural where I needed to begin that part of my new sonic journey. To further explore those and new territories. Sunset and Forever is intrinsically connected to what came before." Sunset and Forever is a labyrinthine opus, one that returns to the themes...

Malmo, Sweden's Sternpost returns to Concentric Circles with unworld.afterpop. Following on the heels of the much loved Ulrika, the new album from Sternpost, AKA multi-instrumentalist Petter Herbertsson, shimmers with immersive, cinematic arrangements that sound like they could have only come from a dream.Taking inspiration from Paddy McAloon of Prefab Sprout's "I Trawl the Megahertz" and "A Breath of Life" by Brazilian author Clarice Lispector, with some bits of Van Dyke Parks and Art Bears thrown in for good measure, it is apparent from the start that unworld.afterpop is no scrappy DIY affair. The songs are alive with an unbelievably lush and warm production quality, belying their homerecorded origins. Not content to simply rest on his laurels and repeat himself from release to release, unworld.afterpop sits at the meeting point between Herbertsson's more overtly pop structured group Testbild! (four of whose members appear here), and Sternpost's explorations into harmonic texture and countermelody.Albums this richly ambitious, detailed and dare we say "mature" feel almost out of step with modern music, having more in common with grand late 60s or early 70s productions, when producers working in a "pop" context were more likely to stack layers in the studio, creating mini orchestras of sound. Most importantly, nothing here feels superfluous or unnecessary, with every detail and instrument simply being exactly where it should be.Concentric Circles is incredibly honored to present new recordings from Sternpost, with a release that reminds you that sometimes a really good, fully formed album is the best way to...

***Big Blood, the intrepid voyagers into the outer reaches of hallucinatory noise-rock and eclectic freakadelia opt for a new path along the circuit board of creativity. Electric Voyeur was made by applying strict limitations using home-made electronic instruments and voice alone. The result is an album that is as trippy as it is devotional in its exquisite craftsmanship.The glorious scent of solder and silicon wafts all over this music. Crafted over the course of ten years at the workbench and in the studio by Caleb Mulkerin and Colleen Kinsella, they were guided along the way by a slew of books on how to make homemade instruments. Key among those was Nicolas Collins Handmade Electronic Music: The Art of Hardware Hacking. Lucky for us listeners, all of that effort is here condensed into four-sides of exquisite vinyl.Kinsella’s mesmeric voice is showcased in all its crystalline beauty over beds of lo-fi reverb laden electro gurgles and percolating rhythms as she chases shooting stars across glittering percussive patterns. The lyrics are as poetic and mysterious as the efforts they put into creating these machines of ring modulation, rhythm and distortion. Beats made of crushed bits and the swirl of sweeping oscillators all make for a momentous and lyrical slapdown.This work appeared first in two digital versions. For the vinyl release on Psychic Sounds an EP of additional unreleased material titled Moonlight Again, has been added. It is exciting to hear these extra songs, now brought out under the night sky and exposed to...

***A collection of intimate songs traced from the spectral darkness by Nanjo Asahito, the notorious leader of some of Japan's key underground psychedelic units (High Rise, Mainliner, Musica Transonic, Toho Sara, etc.) Recorded between 1980 and 1988 and previously only available in a cassette micro-edition released by his La Musica Records label in the mid-1990s. Remastered and available for the first time on vinyl and digital. From the original La Musica cassette notes: "A compilation of secret projects recorded over a period of twenty years. Deeply personal music that achieves a strange balance between beat folk balladry and off-key mumbling. Suggestive self-celebratory music conceived as a confirmation of existence." A lesser-known side of Nanjo Asahito—if all you know of his work is the overloaded, intensified psych-rock and free-sound of his group projects then the solo songs on M gently redraw the contours of Nanjo's private universe. There's something gem-like in the way these five songs are formed, even as they accrue grit and dirt while drifting out of the speakers. Here, Nanjo grabs handfuls of gentle chord changes, allows them to rotate in the air, suspended in reverb, flickering in half-light, as he murmurs drowsy melodies. The closing "Eucharist" pushes everything through a thin layer of distortion; elsewhere, tinkling piano, from guest Matsuoka Takashi, who also performed with Keiji Haino's Nijiumu, disturbs dust molecules to dance through hazy air. LP is housed in die-cut "Uni-Pak" style gatefold with metallic gold ink and soft touch finishes with printed inner sleeve. Vinyl...

***Bang! Records presents the remastered vinyl reissue of Blind Ear (1989), the album where The Celibate Rifles take their punk instincts to the next level—garage muscle, surgical precision, and a rock'n'roll pulse that sounds more urgent than ever today. Formed in Sydney in 1979, the band appears here in full flight: two guitars in constant dialogue, a rhythm section with newfound dynamic range, and a razor-edged vocal that bites without losing melody. The remaster opens up the stereo image, sharpens the six-string detail, and restores to the turntable the physical punch this record demanded from day one; it's the definitive way to (re)discover a key title from the Australian school. The tracklist is pure traction: "Some Kind of Feeling" hits the ground running with speed and focus; "Wonderful Life '88" nails an instant hook and a clear-eyed critique of yuppie culture; and the closer, "O Salvation," lands as an expansive, cathartic statement of intent. Two tracks unusual in Australian rock for their subject matter—"Sean O'Farrell" and "Belfast"—tackle the Northern Ireland conflict head-on and underscore the band's social gaze, while the rest of the album maintains a no-filler intensity. This edition preserves the original LP sequence (the two bonus tracks existed only on the period CD) and stands as an essential piece for collectors and front racks alike: ideal for in-stores, listening bars, and classic alternative rock playlists. If your audience connects with BORED!, Radio Birdman, The New Christs, or The Saints, Blind Ear is an unequivocal yes.

***Between 1987 and 1988, when Seattle was still a circuit of small clubs, four-track tapes and bands sharing drummers, Jack Endino went in to record one of the most solid—and most unfairly invisible—outfits of that scene: Bundle Of Hiss. Those sessions fell into limbo, stored in the basement of Dan Peters (who would soon go on to Mudhoney ) and for years they were a kind of pre-grunge legend: everyone knew they existed, but there was no record, until Loveless Records from NYC released it on CD. This Bang! Records LP is, finally, that record. It gathers the core of those 1987-1988 recordings done by Endino: the moment when the band is tighter, darker and closer to what the press would later call the "Seattle sound": minor-key melodies, thick fuzz, vocals on the edge, and that mix of hard rock, punk and Sabbath-like heaviness fans would later hear in Mudhoney, TAD or early Soundgarden. Bang! Records is releasing this album on vinyl for the first time, just as it should have come out in the late '80s: a basement document turned into a collectible artifact. For those who want real grunge, not the domesticated version. Here is Bundle of Hiss exactly as Jack Endino captured them in 1987-1988.

***San Francisco’s post-apocalyptic spaghetti western surf rockers Hangtown are proud to present their new full length opus Strange Riders. Nine over-the-top eclectic tracks of fuzzed-out garage/surf/alt-country/doom mashup that makes Hangtown who they are. Featuring pummeling drums, horns, grand pianos, haunted saloons, and all the spring reverb they could find at El Studio in SF over the course of a year.Hangtown was founded in San Francisco in 2016 from a solo album by multi-instrumentalist Robb Grimes. The music envisions a dust blown post-apocalyptic world, and the sad and twisted stories from the inhabitants therein. Grimes, joined by long term collaborators Nick Poulos (guitar), Matt Fogel (drums), and Reese Douglas (bass), released their first full length album as collaborators in 2022, titled Tales From The Gun, after years of gigging the west coast and refining their sound.Strange Riders is a Terminator 2-level sequel to their debut. With the addition of metal bassist Sandeep Bhuta, Max Daniel on Trumpet, and Herman Sandu on grand piano and Wurlitzer, and with production by Phil Becker at El Studio in SF, the album has a bigger sound and takes a more cinematic turn. One of the strangest and best albums from the Bay Area that no one asked for. And a product of a very specific musical vision- Strange Riders is an unexpected blend of cinematic western/horror surf, Morricone worship, and doomy alt-country ballads.

***"Seeing what an integral part Tom 'Pig Champion' Roberts is to the legacy of POISON IDEA, it might be hard to imagine the band ever existing without his six-strings of fury leading the way. But when they first started out in 1980, the band’s line-up consisted solely of Chris Tense on guitar, Helmet’s Henry Bogdan on drums and founder Jerry A. Lang on vocals and saxophone. It might also be difficult to fathom them not coming out of the gate as a blazing hardcore punk unit, yet when they first started out, they were more inspired by the challenging and disjointed sound of New York City’s No Wave scene than anything coming from the west coast of America. 'The No Wave stuff was hard to understand and kind of scary, so that’s what made it interesting' tells Lang, 'But when that first wave of hardcore hit, it hit so hard. It was breathtaking, so I was like, this is what I want to do now'. Ditching Bogdan and gaining Dean Johnson on drums, the band set out to be one of the first hardcore punk bands in Portland.Sadly, recordings of their first incarnation have yet to surface, but due to the tireless efforts of Mark Rainey and his TKO empire, we can now get an earful of their first stab at hardcore sans Tom here on Pearls Before Swine: The Early Years Volume 2.Kicking off the collection, we have POISON IDEA performing their first ever gig as a high-velocity punk...

***Julian Elorduy has been making music since he was fifteen, moving from the noise-soaked chaos of Mayyors to the jangling indie-pop of Fine Steps and, later, the more solitary reflections of Pious Fiction as Julian Never. His new album, Everyday is Purgation awakens on the other side of a Dark Night of the Soul drawing on the writings of mystic, St. John of the Cross—stripping away comforting narratives in order to see what remains with a clearer, more ascetic eye. It’s Julian at his most exposed, shaped equally by the underground that raised him and the melodic pop that continues to haunt him."Julian Never’s jangle, all-chiming balladry power pop poetry is one of our favourite revelations in the past few months.

These tracks mark Buzz Kull’s most focused and ferocious work to date,a document of emotional clarity and mechanical pulse that embodies Heartworm Press’s devotion to beauty, severity, and the ecstatic void.The CD version of Deep Hate contains the four songs from the 12" plus four remixes by PIG, Kontravoid, Cold Cave and Spike Hellis. 12-inch pressed on half black half white vinyl.

***Beach Impediment is honored to be reissuing a top tier USHC classic that came into being right here in Central Virginia. In the summer of 1982 when Richmond's RED CROSS came to an abrupt end, guitarist Mikey Rodriguez didn't seem to miss a beat, recruiting Crispy Cranmer, formerly of GASSE 32, on vocals to continue his vision of creating frantic, fast and ugly hardcore punk... and they did just that late one October night, sneaking into the studios of Union Theological Seminary to belt out 8 urgent and furious tracks clocking in at just over 5 minutes, immortalized on a platter compliments of local punk stalwarts Zero Degree Records later that year. What became known as the Fascist EP (a title unintended by the band that stuck per Jeff Bale's glowing review in Maximum Rock and Roll #5) spread far and wide in the months that followed, not only cementing the band's place in the annals of international hardcore punk history but also triggering a regional explosion with the genre; the fuse of which has been lit by Mikey's previous service in MOD SUBS and the aforementioned Red Cross. This is just the beginning of our long awaited reissues of the legendary WHITE CROSS—stay tuned!Remastered by Chris Corry, each record comes in a stunningly accurate reproduction sleeve featuring a never before seen band photo from when the boys opened for The Exploited, an insert with the long lost lyrics accompanied by a collage of flyers and other imagery related to...

***"Forget all the RHCP jokes, RHDP has no time to pay attention to anything worthlessly American like bars that don’t serve Red Horse beer. The Filipino power trio hail from Virginia Beach and for nearly 15 years have been one of the best kept secrets in the Virginia punk scene. The Red Horse Drunk Punks (or is it Red Horse Drugs Pancit these days?) look to hard rock from across the decades and world as ingredients to their drunken stew of rock. They carry the torch of bands like Annihilation Time or Motörhead with the ability to make it burn brighter taking from hometown heroes like The Juan De La Cruz Band and the Twisted Red Cross catalog.With KASKASERÖ the band lands on wax for the first time since 2016’s Silinyador EP with their best sound yet. The long awaited full length hits like a sonic punch of unrelenting guitar shredding, tight drums, belting vocals in Tagalog and the expert playing of a Filipino kubing jaw harp on 'RAK EN RÖL II HIMIG NG KUBING.' You won’t find a single song that doesn’t have you wanting to drive a Jeepney 100mph through the HRBT.

***Austin, Texas punk powerhouse MUJERES PODRIDAS returns to us hot off the heels of a tour of Japan with their Sangre Y Sol LP, the first we have heard from them since 2021's Muerte En Paraiso. Each release has seen the band not only honing their skill but ultimately carving out their own territory within the vast sonic terrain we're all immersed in and Sangre Y Sol is truly the pinnacle of their nearly decade journey thus far. The aural steamroller that is this ensemble aside, this record is not meant to be merely a linear punk album with one sound but rather a cohesive collection of experiences of growing up on the border of South Texas reflected by varied levels of mood and intensity. These songs are about love, violence, death. They reflect the general passion that comes from balancing the intense highs and lows of life while still being proud of the land that nourished and raised the members of this group. In short, Sangre Y Sol is meant to represent the violence and danger people face crossing the border on foot and the long journey that lies ahead navigating through a society and landscape that are often both inhospitable and harsh.Each record comes in a full package featuring an outstanding LP jacket and newspaper print poster composed by drummer Phill Gonzalez alongside illustrations by Kumi Gardner that help to convey these stories and emotions on a visual level.

He runs the Shrimper record label. His fourth book is out in 2025 on Bamboo Dart Press.The Last Chance Lottery is a collaborative record featuring the music of Methe and the vocals/lyrics of Callaci. Cinematic and outre in tone, the record does not forsake melody or tunesmithery, but strips much of it bare to paint it with surprising found sounds, abstraction and a balance between what these two fellas do best. The album was mastered by Al Jones as Marginal Frequency to further tightrope those two worlds. Features cover art and liner notes by Callaci.

This record shouldn’t, strictly speaking, be possible at all.It’s not just that Autechre’s music is electronic and Shane Parish’s is acoustic. It’s not just that Autechre come from electro and techno, while Shane’s solo guitar music is rooted in jazz, folk, and the blues. Those borders, between mediums and genres, are as porous as you want them to be. But Autechre are synonymous with difficulty, opacity, inscrutability—known for unparseable rhythms, cryptic riffs, and shapeshifting timbres. Even on their early records, before they’d begun building out the mind-bending software systems that have defined the past quarter-century of their music, the duo of Sean Booth and Rob Brown were working at the very limits of their machines: eking melodies out of drum sounds, programming intricate polyrhythms of superhuman complexity, and writing sequences that defy attempts to decipher them. I’ve been listening to “Yulquen” for 31 years, and I still couldn’t tell you just what is happening between the melody and the beat; try as I might, I simply can’t count out the steps.Now take Shane: one guy, one guitar, two hands. Six strings. Ten fingers. (Throw in a tapping foot for when the timekeeping gets tricky.) That’s the sum total of what he’s working with. These are not the kinds of tools you’d think would be equipped for Autechre’s music. But if anyone could take on a project like this, it’s Shane. Informed by his years spent playing standards as a working musician in supper clubs and resorts around Asheville, North Carolina,...

The album was recorded over three days whilst the Heads were rehearsing for a couple of live dates with their friends, and peers, Mudhoney. The guitars, drums and bass were laid down live in Bristol, over-dubs added and then mixed/produced by John McBain in Portland. Initially planned as two single albums, (Volumes 1+2) it soon made sense that they should be put together as a double LP. Named in a nod to the Stooges' Raw Power classic 'Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell', it describes the trajectory we're all on. The Heads are renowned for their brutalist take on psychedelic rock, this new album shows how much they have absorbed from their years of existence, their peers and the world around them. Not much change though, they haven't mellowed out. The pummel is there, the spaced out sike zones are there, there’s wigged out guitar solos that will peel the paint off the walls, there’s even pop songs if you look/listen hard enough. John McBain has done a grand job in fine tuning the noise and sonic assault. It's hard to draw a direct “for fans of “ list, because ultimately this album is for fans of the Heads. However, you can trace the DNA of this album back to the Stooges, Hawkwind, 13th Floor Elevators, Can, Mudhoney, Monster Magnet, Loop, Spacemen 3, MC5 etc. all squeezed through the Head's heavy sonic blender. A band that only ever existed on the fringes, "if you're not on the edge, you're...

If you’ve been following the wanderings of prolific psychedelic magicians Elkhorn, you might be surprised that Elkhorn guitarist Drew Gardner’s solo LP Wave Field is the most out and out “rock” record on VHF in many years. Working here in a small group with excellent players Tom Malach (guitar), Andy Cush (bass), and Ryan Jewel (drums), Gardner cuts loose on a set of propulsive and swinging material that allows him to greatly expand his sound into unexpected areas. “Rhizoid” starts with a sneaky groove riding the nimble bass and drums of Cush and Jewel before a leap into the ripping Sonic Youth/NEU! hybrid of “Space Ray.” “Shadow Casting Grass” brings things back down to end the side with some Elkhorn-adjacent gentle guitar weave backed again by the sly rhythm section. “Wave Field” kicks off side 2 with an extended buzzy guitar raga with Cush’s melodic and fat bass providing jammy counterpoint. The epic “Mayan Bees” closes the LP with an extended workout on another extremely fine drum and bass ostinato, a hypnotic minor key riff that slow builds over 10+ minutes.

Debut by a new string trio of Pelt and Elkhorn veterans with the wild card contributions of Kaily Schenker, creating a new variant of supremely pleasing acoustic-psychedelic-drone-Americana etc. “Lullaby>Summer Field” is an aptly named gentle rise, with Sheppard’s fingerpicked 12 string snaking through waves of elongated fiddle and cello. “Triode>Freedom” follows a darker minor-key ostinato with Gangloff’s keening melody over the top. “Freedom>Universal Blues” starts as a dirge and builds to a transition into the traditional “The Squirrel is a Pretty Thing,” with Kaily Schenker’s droning harmonium and vocal delivering a riveting, epic version of what’s usually cast as a short “kids”/folk-tale song (e.g. Peggy Seeger’s version). Originally this album was released by the band in an instantly sold-out edition of 100 for sale at their shows. This updated version includes a new insert by Kaily, a new cut by John Golden and a thick pressing from Smashed in Chicago.

One of the countless Harvey Milk recordings I’ve accumulated over the years is a spotless recording of the band performing on Atlanta radio stalwart WREK 91.1 over at Georgia Tech. The year is 1994 and the band has barely been a band for less than two years. Two freakin’ years. Harvey Milk drove into Atlanta on a weeknight to perform their puzzling Southern Gothic dirge for the weirdos that religiously tune in to hear the vanguard of Georgia music on the Tech station. All these years later, I listen back to this recording and sit in sheer awe of what a fully formed, self-actualized and succinct powerhouse Harvey Milk had become so quickly after their beginning not two years prior. While the band’s full lengths are unassailably well conceived and air tight, their live performances of the era leaned more on the material that lurked on their many seven inch releases that sat dormant on local record shelves until the world outside of Georgia caught on, leading the locals to take stock in this puzzling and extremely righteous band. Taut megajams like “Probolcoc/Jim’s Polish,” “Yer Mouse Gets My Dander Up” and “Women Dig It” were merely tucked away in singles bins while their full length masterpieces had yet to find their fans across the globe. Nary a hair out of place. Sitting on my patio during an extended layover a couple years back, Tanner said “anything you ever want to put out by me, Creston and Paulie is fair game.”...

Spider Taylor crawls over to Dark Entries with Surge Studio Music, an album of archival gay pornographic soundtracks. James Allan Taylor was born into a working-class family in Los Angeles in 1951. Nicknamed “Spider” by his father due to his frantic energy, Taylor was a natural-born guitarist, gifted with perfect pitch and a voracious musical appetite. Throughout the 70s, he expanded his musical repertoire, playing in bands ranging from country to post-punk, like his outfit Red Wedding, while always looking for new sounds and styles to explore. During this period, Taylor also partnered with his soulmate and musical collaborator, Michael Ely. They were part of a wave of bold, young, gay couples living openly together in the years immediately following the Stonewall Riots. In the early 80s, while working at the West Hollywood gay sex club Basic Plumbing, Taylor met Al Parker, the legendary pornographic actor and director, who recruited Taylor to produce the soundtrack for a film he was working on. Parker’s partnership with Steve Scott running Surge Studios produced some of the most popular all-male films of the era. Spider’s music was a natural fit for Surge, and throughout 1985 and 1986, he composed the soundtracks for five films produced by the iconic studio. Assisted by engineer Steve Conrad and armed with a drum machine and some synths, Spider’s compositions for film veer from the expansive, reverb-drenched “Rainforest” to the Miami Vice-esque chugger “Tech.” While Spider thought of this work as little more than a gig, tangential to...

Somewhere between heaven and hell…there is Fallen Angel. Dark Entries continues its mission of shining light on a generation of composers and musicians lost to AIDS with Brandy Dalton’s Fallen Angel, his soundtrack work for the award-winning Fallen Angel series. Brandy was known for many years in the LA underground for his performances with his boyfriend, Robert Woods, who was the resident DJ at Club Fuck. Eventually, they recruited John Munt to form the band Drance, becoming infamous for their high-energy performances and songs that tackled taboo topics like sadomasochism. While Drance explored the aggressive sounds of industrial and EBM, Dalton continued to produce a wide range of electronica, from abstract sonic textures to techno bangers. The Fallen Angel album collects 16 sweaty, sticky cuts composed for the pornographic series Fallen Angel, a trio of leather-focused films released by Titan Studios. The sounds here span from the fractured cyberpunk-rave of “Swelled” to the tabla-laced trance of “FA2,” taking listeners on a journey through hedonistic recesses chock full of crunchy digital drum machines and wailing FM synths. This album was originally released on CD in 1999 by Titan Studios, capitalizing on the success of the film franchise. It will be reissued on LP as well as CD, featuring 6 bonus tracks. Artwork for the album, designed by Eloise Shir-Juen Leigh, features stills from the Fallen Angel film. Also included is an insert with liner notes and photographs. This album is dedicated to Brandy, who passed away from AIDS-related illness in 2006,...

To the cloud disappear / cloud evaporate canned heat boogie hymnal of “Clear View.” The prayer is answered and the sun pokes the light through again. A voice in the forest calls out blindly.

***Dust Collector from Los Angeles have taken their time crafting a modern masterpiece. The result is 12 tracks of Disorder, Chaos UK, Gai, Swankys, and Confuse influenced noisepunk perfection. Where so many bands just crank the noise up as loud as possible, and pump out quick pogo inducing songs, Dust Collector have paid close attention to detail creating songs that are unique, memorable, have perfect production, and do justice to the bands that influenced them. Very much in the spirit of noisy bands like Lebenden Toten, Dust Collector seems to be focused on a recipe that is total quality over quantity, with no cut corners. If you are a fan of raw but catchy hardcore punk from any era, this LP has set the bar to a new height.

***Burning Future is the debut EP by NYC's ARSON. Perfecting their sound and energy over the last 2 years in the way of a truly hard working band, every gig feels and sounds better than the last. This record is no exception, a marked improvement over their early demos, and one which reflects the intensity of their live performances. Stylistically comparable to bands like Extreme Noise Terror and many of the early crust bands rooted more in the hardcore end, and less of the metal end of the crust spectrum, but ARSON cranks up the noise to deafening levels. For fans of Gloom, Ferocious X, Zyanose, etc. 5 original songs and a Gloom cover.

"It’s inevitable that some people will have reservations on a Chris Bailey-less live Saints record. Word on the street is the shows for this incarnation of the Saints have been outstanding. The story checks out listening to Live Nights in Venice Vol. 1. So, what do we have here? Original Saints lead guitarist/founder Ed Kuepper, original Saints drummer Ivor Hay, Mark Arm (Mudhoney) on vocals, Peter Oxley (Sunnyboys) on bass and Mick Harvey (The Birthday Party, Bad Seeds) on guitar. That’s a heavy lineup. "As I write, The Saints have been on tour in the States, performing their classic first three albums from the Kuepper and Hay era (Kuepper left The Saints in 1979, Hay would float in and out throughout the 1980s). Live Nights in Venice Vol. 1 pulls two tracks from (I’m) Stranded (“Nights in Venice” and “No Time”) and two from Eternally Yours (“[I’m] Misunderstood” and “Know Your Product”). The band is smoking and Mark Arm more than makes the grade on vocals. “Know Your Product” is the highlight for me, if only because the brass/sax section of Julien Wilson (tenor sax), Eamon Dilworth (trumpet) and Mark Spencer (baritone sax) is outstanding. It’s a high-quality live recording; the red-vinyl 12” spins at 45 RPMs. Live Nights in Venice Vol. 1 is definitely worth the price of admission." -Ryan Leach

***An earth-moving night in Chicago, 30 crazy years ago, caught HOT on tape and finally unleashed! Teengenerate were a force to be reckoned with in the ‘90s garage punk underground and with their string of classic singles and LPs, the Midwest was just STARVED for these heathens to break our minds wide open. And they did, and some of us were just “never the same.” Is this how Hozac started? YES, this was THE SEED.Just an awe-inspiring brute force of punk purity, slashing through incredible covers of THE KIDS, PAGANS, and FUN THINGS and sowing the seeds of obscure punk obsessions to no end with their savage treasure map of sick sounds.The heat, the power, the rage and the euphoria, it just doesn’t always align like it did when Fink & Fifi took the stage. Sure enough, it was on THIS DAY 30 years ago that our minds were blown apart and our eyes were opened and a life-changing rock’n roll performance that commemorates the 50th release on the Hozac Archival subsidiary. Secretly recorded by Ken White, the Brides’ right hand man, and mastered by TIM WARREN of Crypt Records for maximum authenticity, Live at the Empty Bottle just explodes out of the grooves and will level anyone within earshot, just like it did when Teengenerate desecrated Chicago TWICE on the same night (check out their VML Live at the Fireside Bowl 7″ too!), exactly 30 years ago TODAY!

This album is a hallmark in the death-industrial scene—both for its extreme thematic intensity and its visceral sonic brutality. It’s not for the faint of heart, but for those drawn to confrontational, thought-provoking sound art, it remains a dark classic.Released in 1993 on Artwork Production, Germany, The Grand Guignol is a dark, uncompromising work blending industrial, noise, dark ambient, experimental, and drone genres. The album delivers a relentless sonic assault with unsettling themes—serial killers, anthropophagy, existential dread—drawn from disturbing real-world sourcesTracks include titles like “The Cannibal,” “Black Dahlia,” “Hunting for Humans,” and “Certificate of the Wound,” culminating in a chilling Epilogue. The sound is characterized by droning textures, distorted voices, samples of serial killer recordings, pre-death gasps, fragmented conversations, and deeply brooding atmospheresOne reviewer vividly described it as “an extreme noise and menacing ambient” experience, "hard to listen to the whole of it without becoming depressed or mad."Another recounted being initially repelled, then strangely captivated by its dark audio landscapes—“all the vileness that can be found in the depths of human nature”2xLP on opaque red vinyl.

Each track of Weighted Room is shaped by multiple generations, arrangements, and voicing of the same starting material — drawing audio out of midi and flipping audio back into midi to be repeatedly rewritten, recast, retimed, and re-voiced. “Oddly enough by putting these tracks through dozens of iterations the music more or less determined its own form. As a result there’s way more variety here than is typical of any one collection of my work, but it still holds together as a singular statement” Leimer said. To complete the album Leimer edited, layered, and processed the seven pieces using different parts and passages from all their generations. Some versions contribute as little as a single sound, others form the overall structure, while still other generations play in the foreground, middle ground, or background. The track styles span ambient, dark ambient, new jazz, noise, and new classical with equal focus. As one example, the title track flips the relationship between a lead instrument and the ambient textures that were the original focal point of the music by obscuring its evolving, granular atmosphere with a more melodic sensibility, asking the listener to give attention to buried aura — emphasizing the inversion of traditional instrumental roles which is the defining characteristic of Weighted Room. Mastered by Taylor Deupree with cover art by Simon Adjiashvili, Weighted Room adds a distinctly new setting to K. Leimer’s catalog.

For years, Jackson C. Frank was as ghostly a legend as they come. Even the relatively few record collectors who revered his work were only aware of the lone LP released during his lifetime. For all most listeners knew, Frank made an incredible album in 1965 and then vanished, despite that record having been produced by Paul Simon.1975 Mekeel Sessions features six tracks recorded in the mid-’70s at a studio in Lake Hill, New York about five miles from Woodstock where Frank was living at the time. Only uncovered decades later, these recordings hum with the same mysterious warmth that defined Jackson at his peak. His guitar work, alternating between strummed and fingerpicking, is perfectly understated. His stark and somber voice, more weathered than the lighter tone on his debut.While the Mekeel tapes were intended for Frank’s sophomore album, it never came to be. What one hears is not a singer-songwriter fading out of view, but rather a singular artist who never stopped trying to build his own world—even when no one was watching. For fans of everyone influenced by Jackson: from Nick Drake, Sandy Denny and Bert Jansch to more contemporary acts like Elliott Smith, Vincent Gallo and Iron And Wine who surely used Frank’s sparse approach as a template.

SOGA are an integral part of Mexico City’s music scene, providing the connective tissue between the sounds of first generation punk, friendship, feminism, and the urgency of hardcore. The band began life in 2018, releasing a stunning demo that sent us into a frenzy of excitement. Such scrap and power. We could not wait to hear what came next… With some time to steep and a slight personnel shift, the resulting ‘Corrosión’ is a ferocious hardcore inferno of a proper debut album. Twelve songs bursting with rage pointed at what they’ve witnessed first-hand that is wrong in their home country: disappearances, mass graves, femicides, male oppression, societal expectations towards women, gentrification, right-wing bigotry, and international corporation violence towards the land and resources.“This album is a reminder of our resistance and solidarity.”500 copies on black 150gr vinyl housed in a 24pt reverse board jacket with lyric sheet included.

***This EP is an absolutely captivating salvo in what looks to be a grand peregrination of American Hardcore’s pits and perils. What started as a two person meat and potatoes 80s USHC project has blossomed into something more expansive in structure, melody and form. They’re not so much reinventing the wheel as following a tradition of other bands that successfully expanded their own sound while still being in the hardcore framework like Poison Idea did with Feel The Darkness and how SSD did with Get It Away creating a unique personality and a firm vision of their future.No Idols’ engaging lyrics are inspired by a general anxiety and anger about the hellish social-scape we’re living in today. With people’s spirit and pride being broken by a system that never cared about them to begin with, No Idols has found themselves becoming stronger in the process of protecting their people, their family, their crew etc. While the world is destroying itself, and people stray further away from their moral compass, their path and morality stays the same, and their urge to fight has only grown stronger.

***Basic Strategies for Going out shares the two Peel Sessions recorded by Huggy Bear in 1992 and 1993. Eight tracks total, two previously unreleased songs, a revelatory early version of “Her Jazz” and a fanatical gaiety throughout. For a band that so wholeheartedly invested in opposition, the chance to go up against the stifled decorum of the BBC pushed Huggy Bear to a nitroglycerin blaze. From the outraged to the rousing to the coy to the hell-bent, Basic Strategies for Going Out reveals the extremes reachable by a band at ferocious work. Released by arrangement with the BBC, Basic Strategies was mastered by Fred Thomas from the original session recordings. It is the first Huggy Bear recording issued since 1994, and at present their only commercially available release.

The culmination of that is, what we feel, a collection of songs that really got to the core of what we’ve been trying to do with 80HD. We all wanted to push the style more and more extreme, not worrying about sticking to a genre marker or style, and just pushing ourselves to make a record we were all really proud of, and did a great job representing the band at a particular moment in time. And how much we like Lord of the Rings. People should listen to ‘Orc Party’ because it’s good.”

***"46 years after I first heard Stare Kits on a cassette, they finally have an LP. About time! This NYC quartet's name often comes up in discussions of the No Wave era, which make sense. The members—Angela Jaeger, Amy Rigby, Michael McMahon, and Bob Gurevics—were all fans of the scene, and involved with various aspects of TR3, one of No Wave's pre-eminent showcases. UT played their first gig opening for Stare Kits. Rick Brown (Blinding Headache, Information, etc.) played guest sax with them. Julia Gorton used Amy as a photo model almost as often as she used Lydia Lunch, and so on. But despite such connections they were not a No Wave band. Stare Kits's music certainly use instrumental elements in line with No Wave's ethos, but these're part of a much larger mix. The band's basic approach is much rockier and punkier. Bob's guitar parts are more in the tradition of Quine and Reed than they are Lydian, the McMahon/Rigby's rhythm section is more primitive than martial, and Angela's vocals are goddamn melodic. Closer musical comparisons might be made to a various aspects of UK bands from Penetration to Wire to Deaf School to X-Ray Spex. There's a soupçon of a '79 UK DIY rattle to some of the tunes as well. But there is an ineffable something lurking in their collective soul that keeps Stare Kits's instrumental sound grounded in the NYC art-punk/street-rock continuum. Angela's vocals may resemble Penelope Houston's at moments but there's not much overt political...

***The brand new split single from Warp Chamber and Benothing presents two tracks of putridly devastating Death Metal! “Warp III” is the first new Warp Chamber music since their debut full-length, Implements of Excruciation. Recorded and Mixed by Ethan Camp (Caustic Wound, Mephitic Corpse, Mortiferum) and Warp Chamber, the release features a nearly six-minute track that reflects the maturation of Warp Chamber’s sound and a preview of new music to come. “Deathways” is the most annihilating Benothing song to date, but not without spiraling into psychedelic atmospheres. Recorded in 2023 at the band’s rehearsal studio, the song retains its live feeling even with multiple layers of instruments, ambience and noise. “Deathways” is a heavy, dark, punishing trip into nothingness, and an example of what may be coming when the next step is taken. Mastering for the Split was handled by none other than Dan Lowndes (Blazar, Mortiferum, Noroth) at Resonance Sound Studio.

***“So, how did this band even happen?” That’s the question most often asked of Winged Wheel, a creatively and geographically scattered collective who have somehow congregated to make a noise that’s unexpected but undeniable. The band includes Whitney Johnson (Matchess, Circuit des Yeux), Cory Plump (Spray Paint, co-owner of the dream venue Tubby’s), Matthew J. Rolin (solo guitar wizard and half of the Powers/Rolin Duo), Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth), Lonnie Slack, and Fred Thomas (Idle Ray, Tyvek), each player living in a different city and bringing their own unique element to the group’s chain reactions. Early long distance file-trading between a few members yielded 2022’s No Island, a debut album that was accidentally really good. Good enough for the band to expand their membership and meet in person for the sessions that became 2024’s Big Hotel, a surgically-assembled murk of high energy kosmische rock with jammed-out tendencies. Fast forward just a little and all of a sudden the band that started out as a passing idea has completed multiple tours, become a taper’s dream with sets that drift through structure and improvisation, and ridden the momentum to places unforeseen on their third album, Desert So Green.After a run of shows across the Midwest in the spring of 2025, the group settled into a studio on the outskirts of Chicago to track their next record. Though the full lineup had only been solidified for a little over a year at this point, time together on stage led to a quickly-expanding sound...

Legendary French industrial pioneers Vox Populi! arrive on Dark Entries with a reissue of Sucre De Pastèque. Vox Populi! was founded in Paris in 1981 by Axel Kyrou, a multi-instrumentalist of Greek, French, and Palestinian roots. He soon recruited his future partner, Mytra, and her brother Arash Khalatbari, who were second-generation immigrants from Tehran, as well as bassist Fr6 Man (Francis Manne). Their sound was motley, combining elements of musique concrete and early industrial with horns, flutes, and traditional Persian instrumentation. Improbably prolific and ceaselessly divergent, Vox Populi! found their way onto dozens of cassette compilations during the heyday of the 1980s DIY tape music scene, including releases on era-defining labels like Insane Music, Cthulhu Records, and their own Vox Man. Sucre De Pastèque, the band’s sixth full-length release, came out in 1986 on Unlikely Records, the cult outlet of Rimarimba’s Robert Cox. Like most of Vox Populi’s output, Sucre is a scattershot endeavor, encompassing psychedelic dirges, cosmic drones, hypnotic chants, and fractured machine-funk. The mood is understatedly bleak, but Vox Populi’s genre agnosticism and curious sense of wonder prevent things from feeling oppressive or heavy-handed. The cover for Sucre De Pastèque was designed by Eloise Shir-Juen Leigh, and features a collage by Vox Populi member Fr6 Man. Each copy includes an insert with photos and notes by the band. This is deeply fried material, perfectly capturing the obscurantism that characterized much of the 80s DIY cassette scene.

Three "new songs" recorded in 2006 from SF underground faves Total Shutdown. Limited to 200 copies pressed on clear/red/yellow mixed vinyl and housed silkscreened fold-out covers."The crazed experimental rock of San Francisco's Total Shutdown first saw the light of day at a gig on February 14, 2000. Vocalist Bob Linder, bassist Nate Denver, guitarist Paul Costuros, drummer Phillipe Nguyen, and saxophonist Matt Hartman all play a variety of instruments besides their main ones and, individually, have been involved in everything from performance art to death metal. There first release came as a split 7" with Boxleitner on Thin the Herd Records and it earned a spot on Byron Coley's Top Ten singles of 2001 in the Village Voice. Compilation appearances and limited-edition CD-Rs followed before the one-sided 12" 'Long in the Making' came out on blood-red vinyl and with silk-screened covers in 2002. It was enough to draw the attention of the usually electronic-leaning label Tigerbeat6, who issued the band's self-titled debut in 2003."—David Jeffries (All Music)

“Low tuned, dark and violent Texas death metal,” comes the uncompromising answer from Terror Corpse drummer Dobber Beverly when pressed to define his newest abomination. Formed in 2025 yet manned by veterans of the US underground, Terror Corpse rise from the remnants of Malignant Altar, continuing where their predecessor left off – still in league with Dark Descent Records.Produced entirely in-house by the skinsman, the record’s sound is as distinctive as it is crushing. From the first pounding kick drum, soon joined by a gut-wrenching bassline, Ash Eclipses Flesh never loosens its relentless grip.“I wanted to essentially have a super low tuned Celtic Frost guitar sound with a modern and large natural drum recording. Big room, big drum sounds. Tack on some cavernous low, Craig Pillard style vocals and bass guitar and you’ve got our sound.”The band’s veneration of the Celtic Frost’s legacy is further demonstrated by the album’s closer, a cover of Into the Crypts of Rays. Dobber makes no secret of Terror Corpse’s influences: “Disciples Of Mockery, Incantation, pre-2000s Morbid Angel; essentially older evil American death metal. Celtic Frost is a massive influence to all of us. From their primitive and violent beginnings to the ultra experimental and dark era of their later records.”Ash Eclipses Flesh is clad in artwork courtesy of the notorious Shoggoth Kinetics, displaying a horrifying future so far and near: “Lyrically the album follows a kind of dystopian downfall of humanity. Something crossing surreality and future outlook based off of current happenings. A race...

The bass leads and drives each track into the batcave whilst the vocals yearn and ache on top. This record has a clear 80's English influence (Killing Joke, Vex, A Touch of Hysteria, Blood and Roses etc) but it also very modern day Barcelona with the reverb as important as an instrument and totally DIY. 2011's excellent self titled LP has been bettered in sound, production and song.

In the annals of punk, few albums hit with the seismic force of NOMEANSNO’s Sex Mad. Released in 1986, this was more than a record, it was a detonation. Amid the Cold War and the Reagan era’s cultural tension, Sex Mad erupted as a raw, furious, and utterly fearless statement that redefined what punk could be.From the opening blast of “Dad,” NOMEANSNO made it clear they weren’t following anyone’s blueprint. The Wright brothers Rob and John, alongside guitarist Andy Kerr, forged a sound that fused hardcore intensity with the precision of jazz, the elasticity of funk, and the cerebral bite of art rock. The result was unlike anything else emerging from the scene at the time.Lyrically, Sex Mad dove headlong into alienation, addiction, and societal rot. These are subjects punk had tackled before, but rarely with such intelligence and emotional gravity. Rob Wright’s snarling vocals and razor-edged bass lines delivered every word with conviction. Even the controversial cover art, an original painting by Andy Kerr was censored by some retailers,. This just underscored the band’s willingness to confront discomfort and provoke dialogue.Recorded at Profile Studios in Vancouver with producer Cecil English (D.O.A., Subhumans), Sex Mad captured the raw electricity of NOMEANSNO’s live shows while revealing the intricate musicianship that set them apart from their peers. Though critics at the time didn’t always know what to make of it, Sex Mad has since become a cornerstone of experimental punk. A record that influenced everyone from the Melvins and Primus to Faith...

In 2022, In the Red Records released The Great Confrontation, an album of instrumental electronic music by Chip Kinman. It was Chip’s first solo album; his previous recording, This American Blues, by his band Ford Madox Ford, was issued just prior to the 2018 death of his brother Tony. The Kinmans had been partnered musically since they were teens, in a variety of now-legendary projects: the OG California punk band the Dils, the pathfinding cowpunk unit Rank and File, the ear-shattering electro-rock duo Blackbird, and the Western music twosome Cowboy Nation.In the wake of The Great Confrontation, Chip and In the Red plotted another record. The resultant collection, Chip Kinman, is reflective, soulful, and profoundly affecting, a statement of identity and a look back at life that avoids the pitfalls that could derail an autobiographical work."I had to figure out something to write about, and I thought, it’s time to make that record," Chip says. "A long time ago, Tony and I were talking about singer-songwriters, and he said, ‘If you’re going to sing about your life, you better have had a fucking interesting life.’ And I thought, I have. I’ve gotta deep-dive into that. I figured, if I was going to write about what it was like, how was I gonna approach that? How was I going to say that without being nostalgic or without being maudlin or without being over-celebratory? It it was, well, just say it like it was."The album features several moving, personal new songs: the...

This top rate collection features the group's debut 1979 single, the certified KBD classic "Death to Disco," their 1981 12" EP and some odds and ends from that era. Far from a paint by numbers snotty punk rock outfit, The Vectors had a musicality and tension colored with shades of post punk, while retaining the proto-HC energy expected of a SoCal outfit from their era. In a sense they bridged the gap from the Anglo Skids/Ruts sound to the Americanized iteration in groups like Big Boys, Effigies, Minutemen, etc. This collection features a ton of photos and artwork exclusive to this release; a fitting presentation for this collection of top rate punk tunes.

***This release compiles two Japanese only CDEPs (2000's Birth of Dick Spikie and 2005's all Japanese language Goイング マイ ウェイ or Going My Way) from this veteran street punk revival outfit. Dick Spikie focus on the more melodic side of the early 80's UK punk explosion, musically comparable to groups like Stiff Little Fingers or Toy Dolls, however there's a direct and brash nature to their sound which aligns them just as much with the more blunt oi! acts of that time. Regardless of influence, Dick Spikie deliver ten anthemic, infectious tracks of incendiary punk rock. For a group who's been delivering the goods for over a quarter of a century now, these early bursts of energy show just how dedicated to pure punk rock this cult Japanese outfit was from the start.

Playing tons of shows with fellow longhorns Big Boys, Offenders, the Dicks, Stickmen with Rayguns, etc., Bomb Squad earned their place in the early 80's Texas pantheon. Musically, they borrowed heavily from what was happening in the UK at the time, and in that regard maybe they were more comparable to like minded Anglophiles like Toxic Reasons or Kraut. Regardless of the influence, the important thing is this LP delivers 12 tracks of high energy, anthemic, fist banging hardcore punk. With politically conscious lyrics to match the infectious songwriting, what's not to love here? The collection is fleshed out with tons of classic flyers, promo ephemera and liner notes to complete this loving homage to an underrated group.

Accelerators were a band out of time. Squarely influenced by the buzzsaw, bubblegum punk of the Ramones, Accelerators were cranking out one high energy, greasy cheeseburger American punk track after another smack dab in the middle of the US hardcore explosion.

In addition to the great tunes, this LP delivers a smattering of previously unreleased photos and liner notes.

*** "I was recently introduced to this obscure Lithuanian “evil metal” band by Dan from The Corroseum, who knows my taste in music from our past collaborations on Tudor and similar projects. Musically, Trylika channels the raw spirit of early demo-era Root (complete with bizarre corpse paint), the rough energy of early Tudor and Drakar, yet leans toward a more upbeat heavy metal sound rather than pure evil thrash.Active only briefly in the late 1980s, Trylika managed to record just three songs before disbanding. Now, NWN is proud to reissue these rare tracks on a 12" EP—complete with a recorded interview with the band’s main member on Side B.Formed on February 13, 1988, in Kaunas, Trylika began rehearsing at the Freda Culture House. The founding lineup featured vocalist Artūras Gumbrevičius (Ačkosauras), guitarist Arijus Skorupskis (who later switched to bass), drummer Viktoras Andrejevas (Bambino)—later replaced by Vladimir Lavrentjevas—lead guitarist Vytautas Inokaitis (replaced by Anatolijus Rozumas), and bassist Marius Klusas.The band was part of the Kaunas Rock Club and quickly gained recognition, winning several 1988 competitions such as Electric Guitar, Žemaitijos Cup, Aukštaitijos Taurė, Papagala, and Hard Express. In 1989, Trylika even appeared on West German television (VFR TV), introducing their unique sound to a wider audience.Trylika cited Metallica, Coroner, Motörhead, Pink Floyd, Anthrax, Venom, and Judas Priest among their influences—an eclectic mix reflected in their distinct approach to the heavy metal underground.

Henry Rollins and Ian MacKaye’s brushes with skinheads on the first Black Flag UK tour? Just a few of the numerous and unique reflections revealed in SHOT FROM BOTH SIDES, the first book from Paul May, and Sealed Records.SHOT FROM BOTH SIDES is based around the live gig photography of Paul May, a punk from Grays, Essex, in the UK. In the 80s, Paul took hundreds of photos of punks, and punk bands, documented the gigs he saw, ran a tape label, and did the cult punk fanzine Final Curtain. Ordered chronologically, SHOT FROM BOTH SIDES sets the tone for each year from 1981 to 1986 with a recap of important historic and political events, notable records, tapes, and fanzines that were released.

"Since their formation in the latter half of 2023, Berlin’s Industry have quickly emerged into the foreground as one of the more exciting groups of the European DIY punk scene. Having released their 2024 debut LP, touring and playing festivals all over the continent, they are now back with a follow up record that’s every bit as bruising and bleak as the first.Much has been made of how ‘on point’ Industry sound - a mid-paced cocktail of heavy toms and churning riffs recalling ‘No Sanctuary’ era Amebix or classic Killing Joke. But Industry use these sounds as a springboard rather than a template, utilising the form for genuine expression where others are tempted by retro cosplay. Their sound is pared back, pulsing, relentless but danceable. But it’s the words that result in a listen that’s engaging from start to finish, an album that’s both expressive and polemic. Just as people often describe Discharge’s lyrics as Haiku, Industry uses the band’s repetitive grooves as a wide-open canvas on which their exasperated observations are given space to land with precision. The litany of criticisms are familiar to us all - violence exacted on the poor and vulnerable by those in power, the ongoing industrialised slaughter of humans and animals, the disastrous consequences of colonialism, the list goes on… The world in 2025 is fucked, and even though they say they ‘can’t even look’, this band has got their eyes wide open."—Louis Harding

***The second in a series featuring four modern future wave bands, this time all based in Los Angeles and currently touring national venues and festivals. Each is unique but collectively represent the fresh, electrifying sound of bands in the 21st century.Donzii originally from Miami, is a time-bending, post-punk vision: a unity of go-hard industrial bangers, darkly ambient balladry, and new takes on the funk traditions of No Wave.Klypi is the “pop-star” avatar of AC Carter, a multi-disciplinary artist from Birmingham, Alabama. Klypi is part electropop - part performance art with the appeal of synthesizer driven songs in an EDM language.The second side goes further out with ICBM, the collective brain child of Ian Bain from SoCal's inland empire. With music that has been described as the “teenage Frank Zappa”, they bring to the stage and studio a gender bending collision of punk rock, experimental jazz, and shocking art vocals.Finally, Period Bomb is a band started by Camila Alvarez, also from Miami, with the intention of creating a new live experience with every performance. Bursting from the traditions of Riot Grrl punk, bombastic feminist performance art, and hard core improvisation, their recorded tracks can barely contain the energy they bring to the stage.Pressed in deep blue clear vinyl.

The twelve tunes here open uncanny depths of expression as Bill continues to blaze one of the most original songwriting-and-performance trails out there. With My Days of 58, he applies the living, breathing energies of his live shows to the studio process, sharpening his slice-of-life portraiture to cut deeper than ever before.The core musicians featured on My Days of 58 is the group that toured for 2022’s REALITY: guitarist Matt Kinsey, saxophonist Dustin Laurenzi and drummer Jim White, whose synergy was evident in 2024’s live Resuscitate!. This showed Bill, as he puts it, “that they could handle anything I threw at them,” adding: “Improv/unpredictability/the unknown is the thing that keeps me motivated to keep making music. It’s all about listening to yourself and others. A lot of the best parts of a recording are the mistakes — making them into strengths, using them as springboards into something human.”With this in mind, Bill prepared the songs with each player separately. Taking a note from songwriter, fan and friend Jerry DeCicca, he recorded the basic tracks for all but one song in a duo with Jim White. Meanwhile, he rehearsed with Matt, guitar to guitar, while asking Dustin to make horn charts for a few songs.Features guest appearances from Richard Bowden on fiddle, pianist Pat Thrasher, bassist Chris Vreeland, trombonist Mike St. Clair, and pedal steel player Bill McCullough.

***Cold Spring marks a decade since the label first released COIL's landmark album Backwards, with a special 10-year anniversary vinyl reissue. After the groundbreaking release of 1990's Love's Secret Domain album, Coil were not dormant; their main project was Backwards, which was started in 1992, updated considerably between 1993 and 1995, and transferred in 1996 to New Orleans, where it was finished in the magic of the Nothing Studios of TRENT REZNOR (Nine Inch Nails). The album saw the fruition of JHONN BALANCE's recent vocal-coaching, which produced haunting, passionate vocals while reaching new heights. Now, in 2015, 23 years after its initiation, these tracks have been beautifully preserved by DANNY HYDE and are finally available in highest quality audio. Differing substantially from the later, remixed incarnation, The New Backwards (2008), Backwards contains the original versions of Coil's much-loved tracks "A Cold Cell" and "Fire of the Mind," which have appeared on various compilations over the years, and are now presented as originally intended. This album is the essential bridge between LSD and the later Musick to Play in the Dark series. It is an essential conduit, to understand the journey that was taken. 180g heavyweight vinyl in a gatefold matte-laminate sleeve with silver detail.

Ethan Daniel Davidson’s second record of 2025 deepens the allegorical and reflective songcraft that he established on Cordelia earlier this year. Lear is a rich, legs-stretched companion to its counterpart where Davidson draws from his life’s experiences like water from a freshly tapped well. Lear’s eight songs possess a distinct ache akin to Neil Young’s On the Beach. Every lyric, a new road to be explored, and Davidson, the perfect guide to the journey. Davidson’s fourteenth studio album emerged from the same sessions that birthed Cordelia, in similar fashion to alt-country legends Lambchop’s 2004 sister albums Aw C’mon and You C’Mon. He’s accompanied by the same crackerjack team: producers David Katznelson and Luther Dickinson, bassist and Emmylou Harris collaborator Byron House, drummer Marco Giovino (Robert Plant, John Cale), and pedal steel legend Rayfield “Ray Ray” Holloman. At first blush, these tunes might appear more deceptively upbeat than the ruminations on Cordelia, but fear not—Davidson is still mining the dark corners of his own psyche to great aplomb. “It’s me trying to figure out what's happening inside of myself,” he explains, while reflecting on the lyrical headspace he inhabits throughout Lear. “I'm a positive person, but this is a part of my own psychological healing process, which we should all engage in. We're all wounded people, in some kind of way—and I've figured out how to confront that through music and storytelling.” Sometimes, that means confronting his own catalog, as “Count the Knives” revisits the original’s easy-shaking arrangement as captured on...

***Nobody Jones, a five-piece space-country band composed of West Philly style migrants and D.I.Y. scene veterans follow up their debut album Missing Person with Love From a Distant Star, a collection of their most beloved songs from shows, all never released till now. Drawn from a swirling well of half-remembered, half-imagined genre sitting somewhere on the county line between Townes Van Zandt, Vic Chesnutt and the Meat Puppets, Nobody Jones's sound ranges from the cinematic to the raucous to the intimate. Using plain-spoken songwriting, they navigate contemporary alienation and affection, sharing with the listener a few scraps of the deeply personal in hopes of charting a collective map of the soul.

***The latest from this darkwave / post-punk trio from Minsk, Belarus. Dlina Volny’s music vaporizes on the event horizon where Eastern European Post-Punk collides with Western Synthwave. The album balances mystical narratives & dreamlike fantasies sourced deep in the trio’s subconscious. Walking the tightrope that separates pain & euphoria, the lyrics wrestle with polarity. Anxiety vs passion, & hope vs the deep despair that surrounds negative space.

The sprawling expanse of the American heartland is many things: picturesque as it is desolate, familiar as it is alien. Very few settings manage to capture such contrasting characteristics in equal measure, so it’s no wonder that the endless roads and forgotten towns of the deep countryside are practically synonymous with the general concept of a “post-apocalypse”. Although there’s a bleak horror to the rural decay of “Flyover Country,” there’s a tragic beauty in its stillness, something which OKC noise rockers Chat Pile and Texas-raised, Oklahoma-based fingerpicking guitarist and composer Hayden Pedigo masterfully capture on the collaborative LP- In the Earth Again.Despite their works occupying what seems like completely opposite ends of the genre and tonal spectrum, Hayden Pedigo and Chat Pile’s Captain Ron, Luther Manhole, Raygun Busch, and Stin radiate a genuine synergy with one another that extends far beyond their music. Rather than alternating between moments where either the quartet’s signature sludgy beatdown of noise rock and Hayden’s Fahey-esque guitar soundscapes individually shine, In the Earth Again sees both Chat Pile and Hayden Pedigo explore latent yet previously untapped aspects of their sounds. For Chat Pile, this meant an opportunity to explore moodier arrangements, indulge in sample and tape manipulation, and pen among the most sincere and personal lyrics in their entire discography. In Hayden’s case, this collaboration enabled the visionary guitarist to translate the masterful craft of his typically tranquil, deep country soundscapes into something more sinister, tinged with a visceral, metallic grit that is no less...

***The DIY ramshackle energy we know and love from the group is present and familiar, as is the dry wit and authenticity (a word I’m nervous in using, but if the shoe fits), however Plough Through the Rust often sees the group's songwriting taking a more introspective and personal path. Whereas Pig City was sonically expansive (and three songs here are drawn from those sessions), Rust often draws things closer, finding the charm within the scaled back honesty and rawness."Like Velvet Underground if they had been subject to the unrelenting heat, everyday abuse and suburban sprawl of heartland Australia."—Everett True.

Retail Simps
(As Educated Fools play) Tantric Decapitation: 69 Minutes of Trichotomy & Liquefaction
Total Punk
***After 3 albums, 2 7"s, a feature length documentary and a smattering of cassettes, the Simps, our perennial protagonists, have entered middle age. An unflattering era in the life of a band where the shiny novelty of youth has disintegrated, pressures to expand or leave this mortal coil have mounted and the darling status once indiscriminately slathered onto their oeuvre relegated to the shadows, a blink in the continuum of the next-big-thing economy. Many believe aging gracefully is a myth, and that may be so, but people like Joe, Chris, Obe, Zak and cohort Cole know no other way than to slog onward and upward. With the departure of keyboard magnate Tom Tom, the unequivocal straight man to the chaotic ensemble, the group was due for a proper unravelling or a long hard look in the mirror. Tantric Decapitation was recorded live at Value Sound Studios in 2 days by Renny Wilson, and after nominal mixing attempts, left bare. It was an exercise in introspection, the gritty product destined to be a looking glass into the rough hewn nature of the band’s sound. Despite the realism and immediacy of this double album, one thing was certain: every record needs a story: a platitude drilled into the heads of banal musicians and record execs alike. Doesn’t matter the fortitude of the yarn however, just the way you use it. As such, the Educated Fools were born. A fictional group from the wilds of Nantucket, primed for the newborn sheen the Simps...

***Long-running UK DIY band surface from their regular output of obscure self-released cassettes and backroom performances in their local neighbourhood bars, with this, their third ‘proper’ longplaying record, the culmination of a ‘rock’n’roll trilogy’ that perhaps only exists in their own typewritten manifestos. Augmenting the usual duo of Private Sorrow and Baron Saturday are new additions: State Education on bass, clarinet and pedal steel; and Autodrome on drums. Together they navigate Studio One rhythms, obvious rockabilly riffs repeated metronomically to the point of oblivion, 60s psych covers, chopped up tapes of previous bands, improvised chaos, and even tender ballads. A raw quartet screaming and begging to be let out of the walls of their self-imposed r’n’r prison.“For the third and final LP of the ‘Rock & Roll Trilogy’, Midnight Mines have heralded a Spitfire parade across the skies above their street level hacienda, the shimmering roar reverberating a gleeful din, sending tremors of bewildering euphoria into the enthusiastic gaggle of lugholes below. The winsome cover of Red Krayola’s ‘Victory Garden’ alone sounds like Spacemen 3 trapped inside a Fun House mirror. Midnight Mines deliver their most fantastic blurt yet.”—Tom Lax, Siltbreeze

***For his third new album release for Drag City, Tashi Dorji turns to the electric guitar. After the furious acoustic improvisations that drove the previous two—Stateless and we will be wherever the fires are lit—it’s easy to imagine an album of his electric guitar improvisations as an encompassingly incendiary essay. Especially when titled low clouds hang, this land is on fire. After all, this is a man capable of tearing up the place with the tactile musical violence of Bill Orcutt and Derek Bailey! And yet, this knowledge serves to set up a greater shock: the album’s disarmingly gentle musical drift.When asked why he turned the knob down from 11 for this album, Tashi says simply, “To find the silence.” As ever with Tashi, this is a political statement. Even the search for silence takes intention and happens for a reason. In this time of such institutional inhumanity, what is there to feel but exhaustion? When seeing the faces of the deprived, what is there to feel other than hopelessness? In the face of such grief, what words are there to say?So, Tashi got a couple amps, moved from the shed where he’d done his first two DC titles, set up in a room in the family home with high ceilings and dialed in the reverb. Once the sound was in the space, reflecting in a manner that he felt congenial with his mood, he taped it. It’s a striking signal, meditative and melancholy, with a delicacy comparable to the...

Kurt Vile once sang that he had a freeway in mind, but Matt Kivel (Vile’s former Woodsist labelmate) literally has a freeway mind. Kivel grew up in Santa Monica, California, getting shuttled up and down the 10, the 101, PCH, and all the other freeways Angelenos lovingly affix definite articles to. He started out in music as part of the buzzy, Eagle Rock-based indie band Princeton, toured the country relentlessly, burned out, and then resurfaced with a series of bleak, hauntingly spare solo albums that garnered widespread critical acclaim.Over the ensuing decade, Kivel collaborated closely with a growing set of brilliant, and varied musicians from across the globe, including Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Alasdair Roberts, Madi Diaz, Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes, Jana Horn, and Satomimagae. He moved to Austin, Texas then left for New York City for a spell and then returned to Austin where he settled down. In 2017, he started writing the songs for what would become his eighth solo album, Escape From L.A.Escape From L.A. is an autobiographical song cycle that chronicles the first thirty-three years of Kivel’s life in the City of Angels. The material was labored over, rewritten, rearranged, and rerecorded numerous times, between LA, New York, and Austin. Kivel self-effacingly refers to it as his “bootleg as hell Blood On The Tracks” with myriad alternate sequences, tempos and arrangements that will never see the light of day. It involved over twenty collaborators, a string section, pedal steel guitars, and a renewed lyrical and vocal...
