BLACK PUS Primordial Pus LP

INVISIBLE CONGA PEOPLE In A Hole / Can't Feel 12"

NICHOLAS JAAR Space Is Only Noise LP / CD
*** NOW ON VINYL!

KID CONGO & THE PINK MONKEY BIRDS Gorilla Rose LP+MP3 / CD
*** RECOMMENDED "Thirteen jams hitting ’60s Chicano rock, slip sliding rockabilly, teenage punkdom, mystic krautrock, baby-making sleaze, the best bad peyote trip you ever took and even a velvety call from the beyond. Flamboyant and inspired."

LA VAMPIRES & ZOLA JESUS Self-titled LP
*** BACK IN STOCK!

JULIAN LYNCH Terra LP / CD

MOON POOL & DEAD BAND Patsy / Patsy (Jack Ruby Mix) 7"
*** "Oh shit! What happens when a dude from the SIGHTS/SSM hooks up with one of the geniuses behind noise-mongers WOLF EYES? Old-school Detroit techno jams, plain and simple. Analog synthesizers and sequencers to the max."

NOVELLER Glacial Glow LP / CD
*** "Her most assured, accomplished statement to date, trading distortion & feedback for memorable melodies & a wider sonic palette. Icy shards from the heavens! Pulsing throbs! Creeping anxiety! Feeting melancholy!"

THEE OH SEES Castlemania 2xLP / CD
*** "Castlemania is more low-key than previous Oh Sees records -- 'summer-y & poppy' with electric guitars jettisoned for acoustic, the normally echo-laden vocals a bit clearer. Happy pop melodies, sweet and somber tunes, psychedelic moves galore & more."

ROBERT POLLARD Lord Of The Birdcage LP / CD
*** "On Lord of the Birdcage, Pollard reverses his songwriting process, transforming a dozen previously written poems into songs. He’s never written in this fashion before, and his whimsical, surrealist lyrics take center stage."

TY SEGALL Goodbye Bread LP / CD
*** "TY SEGALL has his finger on it. A finger on it, digging into your vinyl. It’s 2011. Ty is 23. So, do we get the comedown record? Yes and massive.”—Andrew Loog Oldham, San Mateo, CA 2.17.11.

*** "The men of Superwolf have a new pair of songs on Drag City evoking the constant trickle of sweat & the madness of bodies crushed together on the street."

WEEKEND End Times 7"+MP3
*** "Power-pop interpreted by My Bloody Valentine, a sublime mix of melody and racket driven by relentless drums and a pummeling bass line. It could be straightforward pop with the insane, shredding feedback guitar."

WOODS Sun & Shade LP / CD
*** "Folk-rock, fuzz, tambourines, tapes and raw lunch pulled straight from the yard. Pop songs and other things: Sun and Shade."
