WOODS – SUNLIT/THE DARK 7″
Two brand new songs” “Sunlight” b/w “The Dark.” These guys are pretty unstoppable right now. Really nice. “…we’ve watched [Woods] go from acoustic hush to full-bodied sunburned psych before becoming something that combines both ends of the spectrum into perfectly catchy lo-fi folk rock nuggets. In another time these guys would be living in Laurel Canyon with the Byrds and Frank Zappa, but instead they live in New York, probably listen to A LOT of Grateful Dead bootlegs and make music we could drive forever to if we had cars.”
Captured Tracks // € 5.00
WOODS – TO CLEAN/RAIN ON (Live) 7″
Taken from their critically acclaimed fourth album, ‘To Clean’ b/w ‘Rain On (Live on WVKR)’ (an exclusive UK only acoustic version of the album version).

GOLIATH BIRD EATER /SASQROTCH – SPLIT 10″
GBE is the half-decade-strong gauntlet through which Eagle Rock-based Teen Choice Award-winner Bobb Bruno (Best Coast/Pocahaunted) gives voice to his solitary metal ruminations, and oftentimes riffs germinate in his brain/fingers for YEARS before being finally committed to 8-track tape. After a string of shaky drummers but SLAYING tapes/CDRs, he solidified shit enough to lock this timeless psych-crusher in the can. Rolling together depraved sax attacks, freakish costumes, and even the occasional bouzouki curveball intro into their mythically hirsute spliff before torching it in a blaze of drums and drop-tuned oblivion.
Not Not Fun // € 12.00
SWANN DANGER – S/T 10″
Swann Danger is an Oakland, California based band that includes Andy Zevallos on bass, samples, and drum machine and Cynthia Mansourian on guitars and vocals. Both Cynthia and Andy were members of the band Heart Of Snow, which put out an ep on GSL before breaking up in early 2002. Swann Danger is doing pretty much the same thing, just better! Slow, dark and claustrophobic songs.
Release the Bats Records // €6.00
UTMARKEN COMPILATION 10″ (RTB#50)
Gothenburg 2009. This is a small document of the first year of Utmarken with four acts contributing one track each.
Street Drinkers, the soloproject of Viktor from Ättestupa, uses layers of synths and vocals to create minimal and dreamy music reminiscent of Wet Hair and Peaking Lights, but with a unique Swedish touch. After the feedback-mayhem on the Gothenburg Blood Cult Tape, Källarbarnen is now back with a more subtle and somewhat mellow track, here using synths, drums, bass and vocals. All lights are out and everything is falling apart. White is Dan from Ättestupa/Sewer Election, and the project should be known from the tapes on Harsh Head Rituals and Segerhuva. Hitting it hard with distorted synthbuzz and vocals, it ends up like the bastard child of Suicide via filth, crime and abuse. Ättestupa ends everything with the best song they have done, a haunting and intense piece called Änglamakerskan. Freezing winds evokes the mean spirit of an long forgotten era. Total Swedish coldness. All tracks were recorded at Utmarken between fall 2008 and spring 2009.

AIDS WOLF VS ATHLETIC AUTOMATION – Split LP
In the wake of their respective debut albums, Providence’s Athletic Automaton and Montreal’s AIDS Wolf came face to face, stripped bare of armor, wielding weapons of choice. With the battle lines drawn, each band tallied forcefully, committing individual tracks to tape. But as the war waged on, members defected from side to side, new alliances were formed, and the hard lines blurred.What emerged from the battlefield was an entirely new entity: bloodied, unbowed, and undefeated. Gatefold-sleeved vinyl LP, intimately designed by Montreal’s Seripop. Athletic Automaton is guitarist Stephen Mattos, formerly of Arab On Radar; and drummer Patrick Crump. AIDS Wolf vs. Athletic Automaton is the dawn of a new age: a crystalline declaration of independence for an uncivilized world
Skin Graft // €11.00
ATTAR CUPS – S/T LP
This Maine based crew features a host of psychedelic jam talent… Nemo of Drona Parva and head honcho of Time-Lag Records, Sparrow Wildchild of The Bummer Road, and the three members of Visitations, whose record on Time-Lag last year was one of 2007’s best! So this is the second recording from this crew, the first being last years Sloow Tape. This beast is different to the Sloow vibe, still with a super nice jam band sound, but projecting to a maybe more ’song’ (in the loosest possible way) based plane, a little like Visitations. Edition of 299 hand numbered copies.
Blackest Rainbow // €12.00
BAD DUDES – EAT DRUGS LP
Featuring ex-members of Miracle Chosuke, the Bad Dudes play prog-rock to the max. These Basketball fanatics can sure show you a good time. Impressive dueling guitars, keys a la Zepplin, rawkus bass, and one of the best drummers ever seen…
Deleted Art Records // € 5.00
BARN OWL / TOM CARTER – Split LP
Blackest Rainbow continue there vinyl outings with a superb split by Barn Owl (NNF) and Tom Carter (Charalambides).Their sound is super dreamy and almost spiritual, with slow tribal percussion and lots of spooky atmospherics. Like a trip through a dark mystical forest. Tom Carter’s side of this split LP is a single long piece where he and his guitar become one as he grapples with it to produce a whirlwind of feedback, drones and psychedelic madness.
Blackest Rainbow // €12.00
BEAR BONES LAY LOW – VALLEE DE DITH LP
This is the ultimate take on Moolah and Ash Ra Temple. Excellent riffing, brain-melting space synth and far-out hippy meditation. Heavy solo krautrock jams. Think South-American style Neu! Think free, think space!
(K-RAA-K)3 // €12.00
BLANK REALM – HEATLESS ARK LP
We’ve touted this Brisbane clan on multiple occasions in the past (the Mind Peril and The Returner tapes on NNF) but they say the third time’s the charm and clearly that’s true because not only is Heatless Ark Blank Realm’s vinyl debut, it’s also by far the weirdest, deepest, punkest, freakiest, aka BEST album the band’s ever made. And so for all these reasons (and more) we are happy as heaven to offer it up for the world. The porous BR line-up allows for a lot of instrumentation flux and this transience translates on record here to a strange range of agendas: open electric ecstasies (“Fabulous Terror Index”), dissonant outsider-wave art-punk (“Saint Tegram,” “Heatless Ark”), loner Jandek-y demos (“Blues Helix,” “Blues Helix 2”), slow-diving femme-sung dream-gaze (“Till I Clear My Own Name”), and beyond. Varied, wild, and intensely ambitious, this LP establishes Blank Realm as high on the high heap of the rich Australian underground, with miles more expansion potential. Hopefully western world touring plans can congeal soonishly to drive the point home. Black vinyl LPs in beautiful metallic ink smoke-ritual jackets (these jpegs don’t do them justice) screenprinted by art-wizard Ryo from Topping Bottoms. Edition of 400.
Not Not Fun Records // €14.00
CHRISTIAN FAMILY UNDERGROUND – FOR THE DEPTH OF YOUR UNION LP
Summer 06 Family Underground (DK) recorded with Dave Nuss of NNCK at Black Dirt Studios in the woods of upstate NY. The yield was as characteristically unhinged as one might expect: sweeping electronic sounds backed with wood and bone percussion spirit-conjure. However also harvested was some new and especially tasty crop: sung and spoken song, electric guitar/conga “rock,” and an odd ghostly sheen coating the entire proceeding. Nuss comments on the session: “I remember when we were recording, momentarily leaving the studio and going out into the night and feeling it thicken like a partition separating us from this intense state of clear consciousness we had in the recording, which was like… humankind’s natural state. And then thinking about Jesper from FU, an adopted Vietnamese living in DK, and how much he resembles Michael Jackson, and realizing that across continents no man can be divided from himself. We had to make this music to provide for us some fantasy of fulfillment that would carry us through the weekend like rejuvenated suns born again climbing to heaven, after being washed in the deepest bluest sea….”
Woodsist // € 12.00
CRYSTAL STILTS – ALIGHT OF NIGHT LP
Garagey post-punk with 60s psych flavors and classic pop hooks. Alight of Night is a dark hypnotic, haunting slice of rock primitivism. Great record with special silk-screened jacket.
Slumberland Records // €13.00
DATASHOCK – VOL IV LP
Their music is defined almost entirely by psychedelic multidimensional live-improvisations stemming from 70ies Kraut-rock influenced by contemporary electronic music and psychotic dronescapes. If, however, you would want to use other bands from past and present as a reference, names like Tangerine Dream or Sunburned might come to mind. Datashock’s music has a similarly warm and organic feel to it.
Textille // €12.00
DEAD LETTERS SPELL OUT DEAD WORDS – LOST IN REFLECTIONS LP + 7″
Gothenburg based composer and sound artist Thomas Ekelund has delved into a time-consuming investigation of the complex, multi-faceted world of solitude and introspective darkness. His pallet is strictly greyscale, but the tones he uses are deeper, more honest and more heartfelt than anything else out there. Here, hurt is transformed into absolute beauty. And here, dampened drones make pop art.
Release The Bats // €14.00
EAT SKULL – SICK TO DEATH LP
Eat Skull are a quartet hailing from Portland, Oregon, co-masterminded by Rob Enbom (Hospitals / Hole Class) and another original Hospital, Rod Meyer. They bring to the game an extrasensory appreciation of New Zealand’s South Island Sound (Great Unwashed, Axemen), Cleveland art-damage skronk (Modern Art Studio, X-X), and the wretched excess of forgotten Midwest hardcore (Stiff Legged Sheep, Chemotherapy). In other words, just what you need!
Siltbreeze // €13.00
EMACIATOR – COVETING 12″
Misery wears many masks, but Tulare, California fatalist Jon Borges has etched his mark on most of them. For at least half a decade he’s pursued increasingly suicidal tendencies under his Pedestrian Deposit guise (which is currently on hiatus), splicing subdued loops of morbid beauty against savage canyons of harsh noise histrionics. Lately, though, he’s been straying more and more from this aggressive exercise in contrasts in favor of his Emaciator alias, which draws from the same dark wellspring of bitter memories and bipolar rage but, instead of unleashing it in grand frenzies, bottles everything up inside until it seeps out the pores. Early efforts/cassettes retained a strain of buzzing nausea reminiscent of his PD days, but the last 12 months have witnessed a complete abandonment of any ties to the past. Times are still bleak, sure, but the grey prisms of brooding ambience Borges now conjures and slowly collapses convey a depth of mood and subtlety far surpassing simple signifiers like Indifference, Resentment, Remorse. Coveting collects together five exquisite Emaciator compositions (including two particularly riveting songs that were debuted live at Echo Curio last winter) for a harrowing 40 minutes of troubled solace, crisscrossing suicide guitar lines, and entranced self-reflection. Meditation is a myth; desire does not sleep.
Not Not Fun // € 14.00
ETERNAL TAPESTRY – THE INVISIBLE LANDSCAPE
Last year’s Mystic Induction LP captured PDX wah junkies Eternal Tapestry at their hairiest hour, awash in color trails and nightshade flashbacks. Since then they’ve reverted back to their original power trio line-up, circled the tube amps, and written a fresh, flooring set of brand new electric rippers. And The Invisible Landscape is the fruit of this from-bliss-to-blistering evolution/revolution. It’s packed deep with six kraut-punk psych-shredders, huffing fumes from the twin guitar hero dogfighting of Dewey Mahood and Nick Bindeman while drum demon Jed Bindeman does barrel rolls and nosedives into the eye of the storm. There’s also a rawness and warmth to the production that helps the songs bleed into the ear with more electricity than before, and the riff/vocals interplay is streamlined for optimum mainlining. A fiery high point for a fiery high band. Hit it or quit it. Randomly colored LPs (hues range from silt grey to swamp green and beyond) in pro-printed jackets with art by the band plus a photocopied insert. Final repress of 400 copies, mystery-colored vinyl.
Not Not Fun Records // €14.00
EX-COCAINE – ESTA GUERRA LP
On their second effort, Ex-Cocaine throw down hard, evoking a gnarled bonfire with flames that roar thunderously like the detuned and burns evenly like the smelted. Working pretty much from a template of congas and electric fuzz, these heavy mellow bros conjure up swirling eddies of lo-fi, psych that are pretty unbeatable.
Siltbreeze // €13.00
EXTRA LIFE – SECULAR WORKS 2xLP
Extra Life is a New York-based band led by guitarist/vocalist/composer Charlie Looker., a core member of the noise/chamber group Zs and collaborator for Dirty Projectors, John Zorn, William Parker and John Zorn. Formed in 2007, Extra Life combines elements of dark romantic pop a-la Bowie’s Berlin period, aggressive math rock a-la Slint,
Modern Classical Compositions and Medieval vocal music, which the album title, “Secular Works”, refers to.
LOAF // €14.00
FACTUMS – ALIEN NATIVES LP
Factums are a contempo three-piece hailing out of Seattle who claim to have ties with A-Frames and The Intelligence. Alien Native shows a band burrowed deep in the mystery and menace of the nascent gnarl of experimental art rock/no-wave.
Siltbreeze // €13.00
THE FRESH & ONLYS- GREY EYED GIRLS LP
The Fresh & Onlys combine sparkling, frisky new wave that harks back to both the embryonic NZ Dunedin scene & more distinctly post punk era Liverpool! Fuzzy shambling nuggets that come in somewhere between Swell Maps & the Bunnymen but share that kinda oddly focussed lo-fi ghost rock vibe with the likes of Crystal Stilts. The songs are incredibly addictive gems that improve with each listen.
Woodsist Records // € 15.00
GANGLIANS- s/t- 12″ Mini-LP
The album combines elements of the reverb drench garage rock owith a temperament toward lo-fi drum machine bedroom pop. Vocals drift into the stratosphere as every possibility is explored in an attempt to craft the perfect broken pop song. Elements of the Beach Boys can be heard scattered about the record with the suggestion of song writing ambition coupled with a preference for traditional tape based recording techniques. In parts it’s strange and spooky, in parts it’s naive and wild with enthusiasm yet these folks obviously know what they want to achieve and are doing a damn fine job of it too..
Woodsist Records // € 12.00
GARY WAR – GALACTIC CITIZENS 12″ EP
Six-track mini-album from Gary War, which appeared as bonus material on the CD edition of the Sacred Bones album, Horribles Parade. The sound is as fully submerged as on previous releases, with beautiful keyboard melodies and pulsing Syd-era Floyd style bass parts bubbling into vocals that sound as if they have been recorded with microphones wrapped in silver paper. Indeed, at points it sounds as if the music is all F/X, with the original signal removed to the point where all that is coming across the wire is ghostly afterimages and dying waves of reverb and delay. Fantastic modern DIY psych-pop.
Captured Tracks // €11.00

GOLDEN JOOKLO AGE AND PEAKING LIGHTS – COLLABORATIVE LP
An incredible instrumental jam in three chapters recorded at Black Dirt Studios in upstate New York in May 2008 when the two bands met for a tour in the East Coast of the USA. Golden Jooklo Age and Peaking Lights melted their fluxes travelling the astral ways of sound and this is the postcard they sent us from the lands of future psychedelia.

THE JE NE SAIS QUOI – MAKING LOVE WITH TIME ONE SIDED 12″
Stockholm’s The Je Ne Sais Quoi are a band that are constantly redefining and developing themselves and their sound. They started off as a two-piece garage band on their first EP, expanding themselves to a 5 piece on their debut, new wave-esque, album ‘We Make Beginnings’ and took it even further along that line with their last album ‘Rhythm’ where the now 6 piece blended in some glam, weird electronics and even some violins!This new 12″ mirrors their evolution. The title track, Making Love With Time, is a synth driven, catchy and hasty song with a late 70’s pop feel. The second song, I Read the Signs, is holding back a little bit more, echoing the sound of mid-80’s new wave bands. The last track is a late 80’s acid house-like remix of the song ‘Rhythm’ by Eester Benny.

THE JE NE SAIS QUOI – PROTECTION ONE SIDED 12″
»How you steer your life, you can never never know what’s right. Who can run you life, you will never never know all right.«
How can we even start to tell you about this release? Too many days have passed since a new release from Stockholm’s The Je Ne Sais Quoi saw the light of day. This one side only 12″ bring them to life in the most interesting way. This is a band you can trust. No matter what. A murky bass drowns in a hi-NRG disco, with hints of that old Eno. Jilted synthesizers, moldular-bongos and flanged guitars clash against lead singer JZI’s wonderful and desperate vocals. The song deals with the very protective nature of manind. Nothing wrong with that. The 12″ mix extends over almost 11 minutes before drowning in filtersweeps and wobbly tapedelay. Classic! The remix by Richard Brain is something of a complement to the TJNSQ-song. Se it as a cover or a mix from another dimension. As if Cowley and Moroder ever made love IRL.The disc contains link to MP3 dowload. 2010 style!
Moptaco Dics // €10.00
KITES / EART CROWN – SPLIT LP
This is a cold vision of a dark trash covered future full of Sci Fi nightmares and strange out of body experiences. This is the final Kites recording and is perhaps the strangest and most chaotic piece in the prolific discography. Annihilation synth and tape collage, cut up, sped up and dialed to oblivion. Earth Crown steps it back, slows down the pulse, lets the edges of the static curl around the drone to the breaking point, where the damage is let loose, purged out and built again. This LP is a reminder of how cold, desolate, and haunting life can be. Silkscreened by Shawn Reed, Art by Kites and Earth Crown.

LITTLE GOLD – ON THE KNIFE LP
Christian DeRoeck spent most of the past decade writing, touring & recording with the Brooklyn indie/punk band Meneguar. In late 2006, He and bandmate Jeremy Earl decided to combine their bedroom recordings and release them together, as Woods. In early 2008 Christian left both bands. He teamed up with his old friend, multi-instrumentalist Dylan Edrich (Chain and the Gang), and Little Gold was born. Like his earlier work with Woods, the songwriting is earnes. Little Gold has begun to incorporate more improvisational and psychedelic sounds into their mellow, country-rock oeuvre.

MAGIG LANTERN – PLATOON LP
Sadly, this new album from Magic Lantern will be their last, lets savour it: Here it comes. Energetic moon-cone wipeouts, thigh-quaking sweatfests, its all there.Featuring Cameron Stallone (Sun Araw), and definitely orbiting in the same trajectory as the likes of Loop, Spacemen 3, Hawkwind, Wooden Shjips, the Heads, Can, Popul Vuh, Amon Duul II, but with its own loose jointed Cali-vibe, powering through the aural mind expansion. highly recommended!!

MAGIC LANTERN – HIGH BEAMS LP
For fans of good old psychedelic rock but this is more sludgey and freeform. It proper rocks man. Nice production sound too. Cool psyche collage insert too. Listening to this record makes you think that this southern Californinan band have such a great time soaking up the rays of the sun, smoking weed and playing rock n roll. A fantastically good rock record.

METH TEETH- EVERYTHING WENT WRONG LP
“Meth Teeth reside in Portland OR. and in some ways embody the rainy day big country vibe of the city with its youth culture dreamers, old druggies, and rustic history. There is something that is really hard to pin down about Meth Teeth, the songs rely on simple ramshackle rhythms, upbeat shinny guitar interplay, and big fat chord churners, and alot of tambourine banging away on the snare drum. Ultra catchy summertime rockers keep you sad and lonely, and upbeat and hopeful all at once.”—Shawn Reed/Night People

MOUNTAINHOOD – DEATH POD LP
Brand new one sided LP from Michael Curtis Hilde following his recent LPs on Time Lag’s Red Records sub division, as well as a string of ultra limited self released CDRs and releases for Yod and Reverb Worship. This is a far gone trip, thats totally out there and very hard to pin down, the closest categorization for this beast would be folk, but its like some total mutated, distorted lurker mirror image. Wild psychedelic strings and heavy bedroom vibes run throughout this delicate beauty. Limited to 300 in pro-printed black and white wraparound sleeve featuring amazing artwork by Michael.

Stunning new LP from Campbell Knele’s post Birchville Cat Motel project. Continues with the vibes set on his superb LP for Dekorder, total psychedelic filth noise. Two side long heavy pieces of gushing electric destruction, one sound lurches in and tears down another one, which it rebuilds an even more ferocious version of the original sound. Limited to 400 copies.

THE PATRON SAINTS – FOHHOH BOHOB LP & 7″
Maine’s cosmic mystery trio captured for eternity, just for you… While everyone & their mother seems to have some sort of bedroom folk/psych project going these days, you’d be hard pressed to find another unit as pure in spirit & process as these here bodies/buddies. One of those rare vortexes of creation existing totally apart from all hype, pressure or pretense; in other words, timeless. Always balanced on that fine and beautiful line between cosmic joke & aching depth. A simple & unadorned unfurling of strummed & fingered instruments, heartaching female vocals, woodland creatures, earthy male vocals, contrasting half written & totally spontaneous songs, twisting lyrics, haunted melancholy, lysergic joy, and a heavy dose of spooked new england lore. In a way, the recording scene itself is an almost perfect parallel to the sounds & vibes captured here: three shadowy figures laugh & sing around a dim campfire.

POCAHAUNTED – MAKE IT REAL LP
Brand new album from the new look Pocahaunted…After a six-month hiatus, a complete line-up overhaul, a trip to SXSW, a UK/EURO tour, and a full year-plus of only playing shows and writing songs and amassing totemic objects, finally Pocahaunted return to the recorded realm with their first album since 2008. Make It Real collects seven of the band s 2009 live staples for a 40-minute-ish collage of basement body music, garage dub damage, outsider funkadelic sprawl, voodoo rhythm workouts, duo femme soul vocal dynamics, dripping gold sweat, and dream fulfillment. Featuring guest bamboo sax by jazzmaster Alex Gray.

THE PRESENT – THE WAY WE ARE 2xLP
The Present is the music project of New York musician and producer Rusty Santos (Panda Bear, Animal Collective), Jesse Lee of Gang Gang Dance/White Magic and Classic pianist Mina. The Present create a music that seems somehow familiar. Like they’ve already seen your dreams and your nightmares. In order to define the music you’re about to hear it might help to list some of the things it is not: it is not a pop album, neither is it a classical or jazz album. It’s not an ambient album or a rock album either but there are elements of all of these within its dense musical structure. Touchstones include the music of La Monte Young, Dmitri Shostakovich, Wolfgang Voigt, Cluster, Black Dice, Aphex Twin, Can, Arthur Russell, Boredoms and Brian Eno and yet it sounds like none of these.

PSYCHEDELIC HORSESHIT- SHITGAZE ANTHEMS 12″
“I only listen to OK Computer and Cranes. The Fall sucks, DIY sucks, we suck, you suck.” said Matt Horseshit in a recent interview.”Why should anyone listen to you then?” replied the reporter.”Because we’re FUN, duh”. Matt is a dick, of course, and Rich is hilariously clueless mostly, and by all means most of the stuff on this SHITGAZE ANTHEMS EP should’nt work, whether it be the white-boy dub section, the cliche acoustic ballad with backwards guitar, the blatant Dylan rips, or the overall amateur playing, but for some reason these elements that usually reek of pretention and failure actually endear you to the band and their songs.

RACCOO-OO-OON – SAME 2XLP”
Everything’s coming to a end with the swansong from Iowa City’s Raccoo-oo-oon. Following up 2007’s critically acclaimed Behold Secret Kingdom, the final album takes everything up a notch and shows a band taking their last breath and laying down the last bricks in their fairly short history. A fucked up future-prog mayhem that is all over the place and at no known place at all at the same time. Minds are melting, new grounds are covered and things will never be the same. Genuinely uncomfortable, desperate and just beautiful, this album will surely be remembered as the most important recording that Racco-oo-oon ever put to tape. A playtime of close to 75 minutes over 7 tracks.

ROBEDOOR – RAIDERS LP
Following their 2008 East Coast tour with Woods and Pocahaunted the Robedoor agenda has mainly been: hibernating in the City Terrace zone above east LA, adding a drummer/modular synth dealer, and letting the smoke rise. Raiders is the first RBDR LP since 2008’s Endlessly Blazing and is the result of almost six months of slow-burn transformative tape machine meditation helmed by Mr. Ged Gengras. Bummed guitars, loner drone tones, low caverns of reverbed drums and rumble, echo dislocation, and dead voices cascade down into the isolated highways. Song modes are carved out and then left to rot. Features early trio live set staples like “Indo Shadow” and “The Downcast Eye.” You can’t stick your hand in the same black river twice.

SECRET ABUSE – VIOLENT NARCISSUS LP
Secret Abuser Jeff Witscher is an enigma wrapped in a riddle rolled in cassette tape and plugged into a battered pair of towering PA speakers. He’s lived everywhere, met everyone, and inspired legions through his loner lifestyle, utopian fashions (“refugee chic”), and spellbindingly intense music. Up from Rainbow Blanket, through to Impregnable, and across the arid plains of Roman Torment and Deep Jew, Witscher’s maintained a singularity of vision and total commitment to execution that has wrecked us, personally, to the point of speechlessness at least a dozen times. Brutal, pensive, blown-out tones crossfade into tortured minor key guitar laments before being slowly subsumed in a droning ocean of choked vocals and sulking, selfish electronics.

SIC ALPS / MAGIK MARKERS – SPLIT LP
Split 12 anticipating their upcoming December 2009 west coast tour together. Sic Alps give up three tracks with help from Lars Finberg (Intelligence) and Ty Segall, the highlight being a great punched-in guitar solo from Matt Hartman that makes one song reminiscent of a Safe As Milk outtake. Markers show up with a 7ft bass player who throws the band into Guru Guru mode.Great all around. 600 copies.

SOCIAL JUNK – CONCUSSION SUMMER LP
Somewhere between the Bible Belt brutality of Sword Heaven and Tusco Terror and the sticky southern electronics of Pax Titania or even recent Wet Hair, SJ navigate an interesting interzone, boiling together ominous loops, mangled sax, heavy riffs, various vocal moods (pissed, lost, aggro, angelic), militant tribal drumming, and a mess of electric atmospheres into something genuinely gripping and wholly their own. Concussion Summer rumbles through noisy drum circles, hypnotic thrash, and even a couple creepy ballads, with Noah Anthony and Heather Young’s co-dependent chemistry channeled into eight concise hybrid pieces of perfect/classic JUNK.

STARVING WEIRDOS / TOM CARTER / SHAWN MCMILLEN LP
Crazy 3-way collaboration from some of America’s best underground musicians… Charalambides Tom Carter is joined by Shawn McMillen, sometimes member of Warmer Milks, with he added power of Starving Weirdos. The four musicians seamlessly blend their own styles of underground bliss outs to sheer perfection. Together they jam out a totally weird and bizarre sound with lots of scraping, mild feedback, loops, percussion and lord knows what else.
Limited to 320 in pro-printed wraparound sleeves.

STARVING WEIRDOS – B/P/M Series 1 LP
Absolutely mind melting release from this consistently amazing American duo. Brian Pyle and Merrick McKinlay spent sometime recording legendary Humboldt based pianist Darius Brottman Pyle and McKinlay have a side each on this LP.. Side A opens with some straight piano clinks layered with incidental sounds that occured during recording sessions, creating an amazing feeling of beautiful surrealness , leadings into multi-layered piano movements over and over. Side B begins with an powerful, erratic, forceful playing, coated in psychedelic loops and reversed sounds, then returning to a more straight piano playing. Bizarre, but equally genius and beautiful release. Artwork by artist Mick Wiggins.

SUN ARAW – ON PATROL 2xLP
One of the end of year 2009 acts was Sun Araw, thats going to get some replication in 2010 with this monster double vinyl opus……Initially launched solely as a recording project for Magic Lantern guitarist Cameron Stallones, Sun Araw quickly transformed into a stunning live act as well, bolstered by a string of rapturously received LPs. Drawing equally upon 70s kraut-psych rock, Spacemen 3-style drug blues, and woozy tropical world music, Sun Araw s universe is a rapidly expanding one. His electric gospel landed him on a number of prominent music review Best Of 2009 lists, and the trend seems to be growing.

TOPAZ RAGS – CAPRICORN BORN AGAIN LP
Grey clouds stay grey. Low light situations birth low-lit moods. It’s all bummer clockwork. West Coast lurk-jazz triad Topaz Rags return to vinyl with their debut long player, Capricorn Born Again, an eight-song comedown recorded/mixed from spring-to-fall of ‘09 via a complex 4-track/boombox assemblage method. Everything creaks and hisses, there’s smoke in the air, players at the end of their ropes, lyrics washing over faded raga ballads, slinky electric piano bar depressions, shadow gauze cavern pop. The bell jar is half empty, obviously. Slow dive and sink in. Black vinyl LPs (mastered by Pete Swanson) in jackets designed by Amanda. Edition of 400.

U.S. GIRLS – INTRODUCING…….. LP
If the alluring moniker used by Megan Uremovich conjures images of volleyball teams or cheerleading squads, forget it. Like fellow DIY ingenues Sally Strobelight and Inca Ore, U.S. Girls’ approach is deceptively ethereal and delightfully haunting; lithe, lysergic gamma rays of keyboard murk beamed over percussive bonk sort of resemble Diamanda Galas reinterpreting Suicide’s Red Star. And dig that cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “Prove It All Night,” done in such an effortless!

WET HAIR – GLASS FOUNTAIN LP
Welcome back. One of NNF’s total favorite active bands return with a second full-length (most of which was recorded during the same sessions that birthed their debut LP, Dream) and we are pleased as spiked fruit punch. The Reed/Garbes duo mainly sticks to their guns, mining the same post-Suicide art-trance vein they perfected on Dream, but with Glass Fountain there’s an added emphasis on the disembodied, oscillator pop mode that Wet Hair often toy with. Fountain’s five tracks include some of the band’s simplest but catchiest songs (“Crucifix In The Waves,” “When The Right Time Comes,” etc), mesmerizing organ melodies over plink-plonky vintage drum machines with weirdo soulful singing and outer space electronics, like an outsider-punk Silver Apples or something. Hard to say exactly what universe Wet Hair are operating in and that’s probably part of why we love it so much. A killer record that gets better each spin. In jackets with art drawn and designed by the band, plus a pro-printed 11×11 insert. Edition of 600 (400 on opaque lavendar vinyl, 200 on black).

An incarnation of nycs wondrous Woods, as the trio of jeremy earl, jarvis taveniere, and g lucas crane.

WEST COAST POST-ASIATIC COMPILATION 12″ LP
The term Post Asiatic may come across as another ridiculous entry in the dictionary of contemporary sub-genre music but the name is the most appropriate encapsulation for what has easily become the most interesting musical movement in nearly twenty years. Due to space limitations the West Coast Post Asiatic compilation fails to include the majority of artists on the Western Coast of the US who focus on or dabble in Asian/Eastern influenced avant-garde art. However; it offers a glimpse into the fierce beauty and embracing expressionism these artists are conveying. The compilation includes work from Amps for Christ, Soriah, hop-frog’s drum jester devotional, Auto Da Fe, Sikhara & Refrigerator Mothers with sound that travels from electric sitars & winding guitars to tribal animalistic percussion, cyclic drone chanting, gamelan-esque free-spasm metal percussion to dreamy Chinese dulcimers and moon guitars. The marble vinyl is limited to 505 copies and varies in color.

YIKES – WHOA COMAS / BLOOD BOMB 12″ EP
Fucked up gutter-wonk punks Yikes return with a curious 1 sided LP on Labil records called ‘Whoa Comas/Blood Bomb ‘. It’s a right old reverb drenched distorto racket that sounds like Big Black crossed with Coachwhips & Bo Diddley and lasts a mere 7 tunes. Mingus is reminded of early Cramps. Viva la Revolution!!!! This is numbered of 350 in a cool hand printed sleeve.

ZOLA JESUS – NEW AMSTERDAM LP
New Amsterdam is a collection of four songs recorded live at WNYU plus seven unreleased songs from Madison, WI’s Zola Jesus, one of the most intriguing and capable singers to recently emerge from the modern underground. The live set features a full band backing her and sounds somehow different from the previous material, while the homemade tracks on the other side consist of walls of fuzz drum machine melting with those unique vocal-driven melodies and atmospheres. With silkscreened covers on thick colored cardboard paper.Previously released as a CD-R by Sacred Bones Records.

ZS – THE HARD 12″ EP
One side is music, the other side is etched. Zs play loud and/or soft angular repetitive music with saxophone, guitar and drums. Since the bands inception, they have existed between the worlds of DIY punk and academic experimental music. Zs’ broad acceptance can be attributed to their singular approach to instruments, sound, and musical style.
