This Issue: Luke Reilly from PNKSLM Recordings

Is there a genre that you would consider to be the label’s “signature style,” or is it a mix?

I wouldn’t say we focus on any genre as such, but we like to think everyone we work with has that sort of special “edge” or whatever. We turn down a lot of bands that are probably a much safer bet financially, but if they don’t get us excited, then there’s no fun in it. I’d class everything we do as “Rock & Roll” in some form, but that branches out into weirdo pop, psychedelic rap, garage punk, acoustic ballads, whatever really, so long as it has some heart.

How would you describe your overall ambitions and goals as a label from when you first started compared to now?

How did you personally get started in the music industry?

My mum has always been a musician, so my childhood summers were basically being dragged to folk festivals with her, so I guess I didn’t have much choice. But the first big “business” move was when I was 16, me and my best friend started promoting shows in our hometown (Leicester), purely so we could get into shows before we turned 18. We ended up putting on early shows for the likes of Arctic Monkeys and The Cribs… Funnily enough doing that was what got me accepted into University, after my grades sucked. Did a 3 year degree in “Music Management & Studio Production”, which set me up for this life of fortune and success.

When and where did the label begin?

The year was 2013. I accidentally ended up moving from London to Stockholm, and was working as an A&R assistant at a Universal imprint. We got a demo from this band Sudakistan, who clearly weren’t a good fit for a major label, but I loved it. I’d been thinking about starting a little side project label, just a few 7”s here and there, so figured they would be a good first band for that. That went great, sold out entirely in a couple of days, Pitchfork was all over it… I thought “damn this is easy.” So then I did a few more, then a few albums... and then it just sort of took over my life. Johan came in as co-owner to sort out all my fucking mess in 2016, which was when it started to look more like an actual business and not some sort of international tax scam. Around that time we thankfully managed to trick Redeye into distributing us. Then in 2021 we hired Axel, who came in to sort both of our fucking messes, as a sort of label manager. Someone we pay to shout at us and remind us of what we’re forgetting to do on a daily basis.

What is the meaning behind the name for the label?

As the label was just supposed to be a side project, I didn’t really think enough about it. I couldn’t really think of a label name, so I just took the name of my club-night I was running in London (Punk Slime), thinking it wouldn’t matter much. By the time I realized that it was a pretty shite name it was too late. The whole “PNKSLM” thing really confuses radio DJs as well, we’ve been called all kinds of things, Pink Slim, Punk Slam etc. It’s got to the point though now where even if we could change it, I’d be too stubborn to.

How has the label changed since it started?

We spend a shitload more money, get a lot more stressed out, and Pitchfork now don’t give a fuck about us. But we’re a million times more organized than we used to be. And we now finally understand the need for solid lead times.

Describe the general makeup of your team at the label.

At the core it’s just me, Johan and Axel, so we kind of all do a million different things. But we definitely have certain specific skill sets that work together well - Johan’s great with the business/numbers side of things, Axel is great at keeping stuff organized, and I’m really great at shouting at people on the phone.

What has been the biggest challenge for you and the label during the Pandemic?

We’ve always naturally leaned towards working with brand new artists, and I guess sort of one of our specialties was introducing them into the world to some degree. But we learned very fast and hard that without any live shows being possible, that task became practically impossible.

Is the label tied to a specific geographical area? How is this reflected in your releases?

We’ve got artists all over the world now. We obviously end up working with a lot of Swedish artists, often things work better the tighter the relationship can be between us and the artist, which of course is easier if they are at least in the same time zone. But with my English background, we’ve got a fair amount of UK based artists as well. Quite a few from Birmingham UK actually - that’s where I used to hang out and play shows myself as a teenager. Those bands I used to play with, we now release on the label which is pretty awesome. Black Mekon in particular have a lot to blame for my life choices over the years, so it’s cool to work with them and still be releasing their records all this time later.

To be honest I think the ambitions are still pretty much the same as they always were. Basically to each artist as “big” as that artist can get. It’s probably a sign of some degree of narcissism, but I’ve always been terrible at accepting that something is out of reach from us. Like why can’t we get our bands on that big festival, or that TV show, in that magazine, or that tour, whatever it is. Of course it doesn’t always work out, but we’ve definitely always been punching way above our weight when it comes to what we achieve, especially for such a small company on such small budgets. If we take a band on as a label, we’ve got that responsibility to push them to the maximum of our ability. What’s the wildest marketing promotion you’ve ever worked on for any release?

Maybe not the wildest idea, but one that sort of backfired a bit. So when ShitKid retired from music in 2020, she left us with several releases to still put out. She literally left town, had her name changed, and became a nurse. Totally disappeared. So when we released her final album, she was already long gone, but we needed something to help market the release, so I thought it was a good idea to make a load of “Missing” posters with her face on and get them plastered around Stockholm. It turned out a lot of her friends genuinely didn’t know what she was up to, or where she had gone, so we started getting a lot of very worried phone calls. I guess people were talking about it at least!

If you had the budget, what would be your dream “outside-the-box” or “crossover” marketing campaign?

I strongly believe we need to make some bribes, to get me into the writing room for the final episode of HBO’s hit show Succession. Episode synopsis as follows:

The Roy siblings are stunned when Waystar Royco’s imminent takeover is suddenly thrown into chaos, as a surprise last minute high bidder is dramatically revealed - eccentric music industry mogul, Tor Hansen (Redeye co-founder). In a futile effort to ease tension between the two companies at this pivotal point, Kendall Roy is flown out to Stockholm to meet the hip young company PNKSLM Recordings, to get a grasp on the sort of people they will now be forced to work with. Kendall’s emotions start to rock as he boards the plane, specifically as he’s taking the same flight route his father recently had. Relationships fail almost instantly after Kendall meets PNKSLM founder Luke Reilly (played by Keanu Reeves), as the two industry giants clash personalities on every level. They both go to top local restaurant “The Crazy Horse” for dinner with the previously expected buyer of Waystar Royco, the Swedish tech entrepreneur Lucas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgård). Whilst Kendall visits the bathroom, Reilly and Matsson make plans to kill him, following poorly received comments he made about Brexit “being kinda cool, if you think about it”. Reilly & Matsson lace his meatballs with rat poison taken from the restaurant floor. Kendall returns, and starts to eat the meatballs. The song “Done With The Day” by PNKSLM artist 7ebra starts playing. In one final twist, whilst consuming his final köttbular - Kendall opens up to Reilly & Matsson - and apologizes for all his wrongdoings, and admits it was a poor decision “based on my own insecurities and my fundamental need to be accepted” to wear the 50,000 dollar leather jacket to a meeting with a record label. Reilly & Matsson look regretfully at each other, but know it’s too late. The episode and series wrap up with a shot of Tor Hansen reclining in his chair with a cigar, in the new Waystar Redeyeco office. The song “No Regrets” by PNKSLM artist She/Beast begins playing. Cut to Roman and Shiv slowly packing their boxes at the office, tears in their eyes - finally realizing, albeit too late, that despite all their differences - Kendall truly was their one last chance to keep the family legacy alive.

How would you describe the average fan of the label?

A person of an immaculate, distinguished taste.

What in your opinion has been the biggest change in the music industry from when you first started compared to now?

Definitely streaming. But not because of sales. I’m unfortunately not old enough to know what it was like to sell a million CD’s at 99% profit margins. But more the music discovery side of things. When I started doing this, it was relatively easy to create a genuine buzz/hype around new bands by getting coverage on music blogs, and the bigger music sites. But as playlists started taking over as the way people discover new music online, all those sites have died off. Which I think is a big shame to be honest. If you had to start a new sub-label, what would it be called and what kind of music would it be geared towards?

I still really want to do “Pop Slime” and just release really tacky but happy 90’s style pop music. But Johan won’t let me. One day…

They say our sun will explode in about 5 billion years or so- how would you like the label to be remembered?

The label that ruined the finale of HBO’s hit show, Succession.

‘In Times New Roman...’, the 8th studio album from Queens of the Stone Age is raw, brutal & rough around the edges but with a refinement that reveals itself further with each successive listen — and QOTSA founder Joshua Homme’s lyrics are as witty and withering than ever. The results are instantly identifiable ; QOTSA’s sonic signature, expanded and embellished with new and unprecedented twists in virtually every song, a live in-a-room recording that showcases a band at the height of their creative powers.

‘In Times New Roman...’ is a party for the obscene and the clean, the outcasts and the weirdos, and anyone and everyone in between. One of the most important bands in recent rock history is B A C K but it’s no exaggeration to call this album a devastating rebirth.

Sun Ra Arkestra Directed by Marshall Allen

Living Sky

CELEBRATING

MARSHALL ALLEN’S 99th BIRTHDAY! 25% DISCOUNT ON STANDARD EDITION 2LP UNTIL 06/30/2023

Album Highlights:

- Instrumental album rich in spirituality with a decidedly mellow hue.

- Lead and directed by living legend Marshal Allen (98) who has been the musical director of the Arkestra since 1995. As a featured soloist with the Arkestra, Marshall pioneered the avantgarde jazz movement of the early 60s, influencing all leading avant-garde saxophonists thereafter.

- Recorded during the pandemic in Philadelphia, this album is the first new recording since the group’s Grammy nomination in 2021.

- Cover art by Black Monument Ensemble’s Damon Locks.

Street Date: October 7, 2022

For more than two decades, the disciple that has most visibly carried on Sun Ra Arkestra’s legacy and sound is their musical director, alto saxophonist Marshall Allen, the iconic fire breather and life force that restored the Arkestra’s vitality in the massive vacuum left by Ra and John Gilmore’s death in the ‘90s. Allen turned 98 in 2022 and, as evidenced by Living Sky, his influence and leadership remain undiminished. Marking the Arkestra’s first new recording since their 2021 Grammy-nominated album Swirling, Living Sky was recorded on June 15, 2021 at Rittenhouse SoundWorks in Philadelphia and features a total of twenty musicians, including a strings section. It was mixed and mastered by three-time Grammy winner Dave Darlington (Eddie Palmieri, Brian Lynch, Wayne Shorter).

Steve Pilgrim - Beautiful Blue

Muddy Leaf Records

LP MLRLP006 5055869549325

CD MLRCD006 5055869549448

LP is limited to 1000 copies on Blue Transparent vinyl. Working with Paul Weller as producer and co-writer on his 5th studio album, Liverpool troubadour Steve Pilgrim releases the achingly melancholic “Beautiful Blue” on Ltd Vinyl and CD. The album features Paul Weller playing on all tracks , Steve Craddock and Rachael Jean Harris with string arrangements from Hannah Peel. These sketches of songs, melodies and chord progressions became the beginning of a co-writing direction for Pilgrim/Weller and took the material to a new place, tugging and pushing the softlyspoken Scouser in new ways that only Weller could provoke. Tunes such as ‘Test of Faith’, ‘Don’t Let The Mirror Break You’, ‘One With All’, ‘Universe’ and ‘Where Our Love Goes’ have echoes of Pilgrim’s previous work, but add a warmth and classicism found in his co-writer’s celebrated ‘True Meanings’ record. ‘Beautiful Blue’ is the work of an artist who finds strength in still life and shouts loudest when whispering. The songs on this album are streamlined, lacking fat and offer intricate acoustic guitar playing weaving in and out of memorable melodies (‘New Sky’), undulating strings (the gorgeous title track) and devastatingly delicate vocal harmonies (‘Everyday’).

OVERVIEW

On a practical level, Geese are still the group we were introduced to in 2021: vocalist Cameron Winter, guitarist Gus Green, guitarist Foster Hudson, bassist Dom DiGesu, and drummer Max Bassin. But spiritually, Geese have returned as an entirely different prospect. Their new album 3D Country is the sound of a restless, adventurous band redefining themselves.

Knowing they were now beyond teenage basement experiments and were instead making something for an audience who would hear it, Geese felt emboldened. While writing 3D Country, Winter was preoccupied with “modern doom,” the way climate change and all manner of looming catastrophes hang on the horizon while we otherwise go about our lives. “It’s about living in spite of just total ambient dread,” he explains. “I wanted to adopt an irreverent, sarcastic way of looking at that.” While Winter wanted to portray a generational experience, he didn’t want to be overly literal or didactic about it. “At this point, everybody I know is already so cynical and defeatist about the state of things, it’s actually hilarious,” he explains. “Younger people make jokes out of the fact that human extinction is on the horizon, and that’s kind of beautiful. I tried to represent that attitude.” With a heightened ambition fueling 3D Country, the band created a bugged-out, wild, unpredictable ride — an almost phantasmagoric reflection of contemporary life. “It feels like going to the circus and instead of having a good time, everyone is trying to kill you,” Bassin says.

3D Country is the follow up to the band’s 2021 debut Projector. That record earned the band their TV debut on Colbert, profiles in the NY Times, Stereogum Band To Watch, Consequence Artist Of The Month, Paste Best Of What’s Next, Rolling Stone called them “indie rock prodigies,” as well as tours with Jack White and Spoon.

OVERVIEW

Léa Sen’s 2nd release, You Of Now, Pt. 2, is an EP that runs through themes as heavy as they are relatable: quarrel with the self, contradictions, feelings of desire and more.

Showcasing her extensive sonic palette as a guitarist, singersongwriter, producer and mixer, You Of Now, Pt. 2 explores experiences that are deeply real: the unsavoury parts of life and of her own mind. But through these reflections, Sen communicates the peace that comes with knowing that it’s ok to not be perfect. “On this EP, I was just a bit more honest with myself about who I am, and how flawed I am. But no matter how flawed I am, I still care for myself,” she says.

Dragonfly ʚĭɞ details self-imposed restriction over pulsing synths and electronic drums, whilst Luv Him (about u) features her soft and lilting voice framed by little more than guitar chords and an atmospheric vocal. The song communicates toxic relationships based on lust and pleasure.

Signing to Partisan Records in 2022, Sen has seen a stellar rise suggestive of a talent far beyond her years. Her introspection and vocal talent has seen her find critical acclaim with the likes of The FADER, The Guardian, Crack Magazine, Dummy, Notion, The Independent and more. The artist has received radio support on BBC 6Music, Radio 1, 1Xtra and Apple Music 1, and a nomination as an AIM Award One To Watch in association with BBC Introducing.

Above all else, You Of Now, Pt. 2 is a record that asks us to reject polishing and embrace the freedom that comes with vulnerability, in the way Sen has herself. “I want people to feel like they’re not crazy,” she says. “We’re all going through it, and it doesn’t mean that you’re not worthy or you’re inadequate. And also maybe a reminder to myself.”

SIDE B

Twin singer/songwriters Chandra and Leigh Watson mark their arrival at Bloodshot Records with Holler, a crackling country set produced by Grammy-nominated artist, songwriter, and producer, Butch Walker. Recorded over 5 days in Walker’s Nashville studio, Holler was designed to capture the infectious energy and attitude of the Twins’ legendary live sets while showcasing their flawless songwriting chops.

“We didn’t want the album to be pristine. We wanted it to be raw, organic, and authentic, like the songs themselves.” Walker joined Leigh and Chandra on harmony vocals, acoustic guitar and lead guitar on a few tracks as well.

The first single from Holler, “The Palace,” was launched with a video premiere and feature article on People.com.

The Watson Twins will be on tour throughout 2023.

Produced by Butch Walker (Taylor Swift, Green Day, P!nk)

The Watson Twins have performed with Jenny Lewis, Margo Price, My Morning Jacket, Willie Nelson, and countless other country, rock, and R&B stars

In collaboration with Timmion Records, Daptone is proud to present My Echo, Shadow and Me , the debut album from the soulful Chicano brother, Jonny Benavidez. Hailing from San Diego (via El Paso, TX), Jonny's desire to sing was influenced by his grandfather, John Lorenzo Guzman, who as a teen in the early sixties spent some time harmonizing with groups in El Paso–most notably Sonny Powell and the Night Dreamers. When he was 13, Jonny was given a record player and a box filled with R&B, Doo-Wop, and Soul 45s that he studied obsessively, employing the harmonies and meloldies therein to cultivate his own unique voice. After a chance encounter with the legendary Dimas Garza, Jonny's career began to blossom and soon he would find himself singing alongside stars like Eugene Pitt and Archie Bell–garnering the interest of Timmion Records.

Backed by the incomparable Cold Diamond & Mink (Bobby Oroza, Pratt & Moody) two incredibly successful singles were cut and plans for a full length were struck, culminating in 11 original songs penned by Benavidez. From the uplifting bounce of the title track, the doo-wop dinged "Dedicated to You", the Latin flare of “Uncle Sam,” to the Sweet Soul masterpiece "Somebody Cares" (licensed and released on a Penrose Records 45), My Echo, Shadow and Me is not only an aweinspiring display of Jonny's versatility as an artist but also serves as a window into the eclectic array of soulful sounds that inspired him to fall in love with music and become a singer. A must have for fans of Daptone, Timmion, Penrose, et al.

OVERVIEW

Fela Kuti (1938-1997) was a Nigerian musician, producer, arranger, political radical, outlaw and the originator of Afrobeat. A titanic musical and sociopolitical voice, Fela’s legacy spans decades and genres, touching on jazz, pop, R&B, funk, hip-hop, rock and beyond.

1973’s Gentleman is the 7th in the series of celebratory Fela 50th Anniversary reissues. Like its predecessors in the series, this version will be available on exclusive colored vinyl (Igbo Smoke) and the LP will be wrapped in a gold foil obi strip with a brief essay on the album and Fela’s global impact on music. Like Fela’s other early 70’s releases, he used each side of his LPs to create a deep groove that pulls the listener in and follows with metaphoric lyrics that call out and critique the corrupt hangover of colonialism.

Gentleman is the last of Fela’s early 1970s albums recorded with the Africa 70. The title track can be interpreted literally or as a metaphor concerning a wider issue. Fela deftly addresses the colonialism-induced, inferiority complex which led many in Africa’s new governing elites to reject African style, concepts of beauty, and modes of behavior in favor of European imports. Gentleman’s other tracks, “Fefe Naa Efe” and “Igbe,” have more direct, less metaphorical lyrics. On “Fefe Naa Efe,” an Ashanti motto from Ghana, Fela tells a woman dumped by her boyfriend that she must get over the heartache and move on. On “Igbe”, Fela declares that anyone who betrays a friend is shit, and that anybody who lacks self-respect is shit - something you want to expel from your body as soon as possible. He sings the word “shit” in several Nigerian languages, so there is no misunderstanding.

• PRODUCED BY JOSH KAUFMAN (The Hold Steady, Bob Weir, Cassandra Jenkins)

“So compulsively listenable - so smart... just brilliant. What a voice” – NPR

“Strikes an impressive balance between serenity and a charged underbelly that makes Samuels so compelling to listen to.” – Paste

The first witnesses to Samuels’ new beginnings fittingly became part of the sound of the album. During her darkest moments, while writing in isolation, her old friends in the band Bonny Light Horseman offered to take her out on tour in early 2020. “They re-contextualized music for me all over again,” she says. Observing a truly kind and compassionate music community brought Samuels out of herself even more. Inspired by conversations with producer Josh Kaufman (The Hold Steady, Bob Weir, Cassandra Jenkins) on the road, Samuels took him up on his offer to produce her new songs and retreated to Isokon Studios in Woodstock, NY in the summer of 2021. They made the album as a duo, with Matt Barick (The Walkmen, Fleet Foxes) contributing drums on the entirety of the record. The result is a sonic template that ranges from the soaring and orchestral to the understated and confessional; at turns free-wheeling and filled with swagger then sincere and precise, with each subtle movement serving to highlight Samuels’ lyrical journeys.

As happens with albums that feel kinetic upon listening, the recording of Bystander with this skeleton crew of trusted friends served to underscore the questions Samuels had set out to answer when she began writing: “I had to ask myself ‘what are my values? What kind of people do I want around?”

In answering them, Samuels illuminates her path out of the wreckage. She doesn’t shy away from where she’s been but more importantly, over the course of these eleven elegiac poems set to a carefully curated symphony of tones, Samuels lets us know where she’s headed. Walking out of a thousand toxic conversations and away from a thousand false illusions, she’s stepping out into the street, with a glass raised for “whoever the fuck is left.” Listeners can count themselves among those being toasted; the lucky ones who get to greet Samuels and hear the tales of her reckoning.

A FIRST-EVER REISSUE OF CHITRA NEOGY’S SULTRY RENDITION OF THIS FIFTEENTH CENTURY TEXT, COMPLETE WITH SITAR, TABLA, & BANSURI!

After graduating from Calcutta University and Santiniketan with a degree in fine arts, Neogy moved to London and continued her studies in drama and film at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. As a way to make ends meet, she worked as a high fashion model and was introduced to photographer Marcus Harrison. Neogy’s voice piqued his interest, so he offered to record her.

With only a microphone and book in hand, Neogy recorded the album within a day. Little did she know, Harrison added instrumentation and shopped it around to several labels before signing a deal with Pulsar records.

After it was released in 1968, Neogy’s Perfumed Garden received critical acclaim, including praise from French ambassador Andre Malraux who wrote “I have never heard anything like this. Your voice is exquisite, layered and hauntingly sensuous.” Prestigious newspapers reviewed the album, one of which being the London Times, who compared Neogy’s enunciation to Lawrence Olivier, her range to Yma Sumac, and her sensuality to Eartha Kitt!

Leaving the music industry behind to pursue dramatic arts, Neogy went on to perform in films like To Sir With Love, Lady J, Premonition, Eliza’s Horoscope, The Saint, and The Prisoner. She went on to make films of her own and now works as a professor of film at NYU.

The newest CD by Zorn’s most recent quartet Incerto is a beautiful and moody suite of nocturnes inspired by the night imagery of Shakespeare. Heart wrenchingly beautiful, the music carries you to a lush romantic world of modern lyricism, blending elements of jazz balladry with classical atonality and minimalism into a vibrant new sound world. Featuring four of the most accomplished musical masters out of the Downtown scene—trusted members of Zorn’s inner circle—this is modern chamber music at its very best!

SALES TO UK&EU& JAPAN&AUSTRALIA&NZ ARE FORBIDDEN: CUM ON ALL OTHER TERRITORIES

Cory Hanson’s third solo LP follows upon 2020’s luminescent Pale Horse Rider, upping the heat to molten levels, six strings at a time. In search of further adventures, Cory draws with vampiric glee from the madness coursing through the world outside; a spiraling shitshow that’s reawakened a compulsion in him an old ambition, even! to crush brutality and elegance together into a fresh set of rocks to hail down upon us.

Western Cum is a high-stepping, hard-dancing, first love/heartbreak, tonight’s-the-night, future nostalgia kind of good time the sound of guitars through the speakers of luxury cars. Like the dream you had once, alone, asleep in an amplifier, blasting Guns N’ Roses through every last orifice in your body. And it’s coming through!

It’s another side of midnight somewhere; high o’clock too, and the dark, cactaceaen fantasias of the previ -

ous incarnation have hardened and dried in Cory ’s pre-apocalyptic garden of choice, a sun-blinded plain of sedimentary rock. Down the highway, beyond the horizon, through the looking glass, etc he’s fixed for rough times ahead, a gunslinger/antihero of legend/infamy, back in town with axe blazing and a rhythm trio dubbed “Slowhand” walking up the crazy horse he rode in on. You ready to boogie?

Western Cum ’s map to the treasure is less about pastiche, though; more toward executing the songs by executioner’s axe, rolling their decapitated rhythm heads and soaring melodies, the panoply of Cory ’s melodic impulses with guitars, guitars, guitars. Harmony leads are just the tip of the iceberg, but be quick the guitars like to melt everything in their path! The eight songs of Western Cum are driven by the stalwart bass of brother Casey Hanson and the drums of Evan

Backer with a few passing acoustics from Cory and the intermittent spirit-moans of Tyler Nuffer ’s steel guitar. The quartet sound two guitars, bass and drums acts as beat-making principle/phrasing device, as well as template for Cory ’s layers of six-string and vocal textures. From the rooftop of their musical safe house the band in their makeshift hut and Cory ensconced in an outhouse they let loose with a blast both face-melting and mind-blowing: a social service that gives constipation a good name.

With Western Cum, this debauched and shameless world is redeemed in the same breath as it is repudiated. A massing of voices and guitars form an almost post-gospel harmony, bright and burgeoning, engorging the thermostat, prising the pressure from your chest before the final wink-out. Maybe it’s a mirage but those things are just another part of reality, ain’t they?

In the lush tobacco fields of North Carolina where BJ Barham was raised, people work hard. Families stay nearby, toiling and growing together. BJ loves those farms and his tiny Reidsville hometown, but he had to run off and start American Aquarium, a band now beloved by thousands. He couldn’t stay, but he couldn’t really leave, either: he’s still singing about the lessons, stories, and lives that define rural America––and him.

Recorded at 3CG Records in Tulsa, OK, American Aquarium’s seventh studio album, Things Change was produced by Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter John Fullbright and features cameos from Americana standouts including John Moreland and Jamie Lin Wilson. Stacked with BJ’s signature storytelling––always deeply personal but also instantly relatable, Things Change questions and curses current events, shares one man’s intimate evolution, and leaves listeners with a priceless gift: hope.

BJ’s candor has fueled American Aquarium’s runaway appeal, visible most clearly in consistently sold-out shows across the country and throughout Europe - between 200 and 250 dates a year. Much has changed for the band and BJ since their acclaimed last effort, Wolves. In 2017, every American Aquarium member save BJ quit the group. American Aquarium has featured about 30 players since BJ founded the outfit in 2006, and while each member has left indelible marks, the band has always been anchored by the literary songs and sometimes roaring, sometimes whispering, drawl of BJ Barham. Featuring a new band lineup that includes Shane Boeker on lead guitar, drummer Joey Bybee, bassist Ben Hussey, and Adam Kurtz on pedal steel and electric guitar, as well as a reinvigorated frontman in BJ, Things Change is American Aquarium’s first release on a label after selling thousands of records on their own.

JACOB MORRIS SLOW FUNERAL

Jacob Morris is a multi-instrumentalist (singer, cello, guitars, bass, keyboards) based just outside of Durham, North Carolina. He began playing cello at the age of four in Austin Texas, playing in his musical family (his father is a he quickly found his place in the legendary scene there playing with (among others) Vic Chestnut, Liz Durrett, Ham 1, Madeline, and Patterson Hood of the Drive By Truckers

Slow Funeral was recorded in a series of late night sessions at 1093 in Athens, GA, by the graciousness of the studio and its engineer John Speigel. Almost each track is from live, unedited performances of each instrument, with some overdubs of vocals and keys in some places. Each song, though different in mood, seems to occupy the same environment as the others because, well, it did. There’s an atmospheric quality to the space inhabited that runs through the EP like a ribbon.

Slow Funeral is set for release on May 12, 2023 via Strolling Bones Records.

Penguin Cafe return with new album Rain Before Seven.. A sense of optimism infuses Penguin Cafe’s fifth studio album, not the braggadocious, overconfident kind, but more a blithe, self-effacing optimism in keeping with the national character. Even when all signs point to the contrary, it operates within the certainty that things are going to be alright. Probably.

PPD: CD $17.99 / LP $23.99 / LE $27 99

The title comes from an old weather proverb with the rhyming prognostication fine before eleven hinting at a happy ending, irrespective of the science: “I found it in a book and I'd never heard it before,” says Arthur Jeffes, leader of Penguin Cafe. “It has faintly optimistic overtones and I quite like it. It's fallen out of usage recently but it does describe English weather patterns coming in off the Atlantic.”

From the widescreen reverie of opener ‘Welcome to London’ with its cheeky nod to Morricone to ‘Goldfinch Yodel’, the self-described “Maypole banger” at the denouement, there’s a welcome sense of sanguinity, always with an undercurrent of exotic rhythmic exuberance. Playfulness pervades, with a titular nod to A Matter of Life… from 2011, the last album title that concluded with an ellipsis. That Penguin Cafe debut is the bridge between the legendary Penguin Cafe Orchestra, led by Arthur’s father Simon Jeffes, and the muchloved descendent, led by Arthur.

“Stylistically it's really satisfying to get back to playful rhythms and instruments,” says the younger Jeffes, who kept the group’s debut from 12 years ago in mind when writing the new album. “Certainly when starting out, I became aware that we’d stopped using quite a few of the textures that had been there at the beginning and it was certainly there in my dad's earlier stuff. So there's a lot of balafon and textures from completely different parts of the world, musically and geographically: ukuleles, cuatros and melodicas that you can hear.”

PR Agent: pr@erasedtapes.com

Encouraged by co-producer Robert Raths, the rhythmic elements of Rain Before Seven… have never been more to the fore and, at times, even hint at the electronic. ‘Find Your Feet’, for instance, is underpinned with more than just a pulse. Mixed by Tom Chichester-Clark, it brings to the musical melange what Arthur describes as a “near electronic feel”. He adds, excitedly: “There are elements of fun here which we haven't really done with the last three records.” Another ebullient highlight is ‘In Re Budd’, dedicated to the late ambient godfather Harold Budd, who Arthur discovered had died on the day he’d been writing the celebratory ear worm with a deceptively tricky syncopation. Played on an upright piano with some “prepared” felt to accentuate the bounce, Jeffes feels a track with an Afro Cuban Cafe vibe would appeal to Budd’s contrariness.

And then there’s the aforementioned ‘Welcome to London’, which got its name as the world started to open up and people were finally allowed to fly again. Jeffes, who touched down on home soil for the first time in a while, was struck by its cinematic John Barry-esque qualities as he took a taxi into West London from Heathrow with the mise-en-scène of the opulent twilight. The optimism is there, and maybe a little caustic irony too. “Robert [Raths] added a layer of nuance which I think is interesting, because many Londoners are not from London originally. So you pitch up to London as an outsider, and you haven't really found your tribe yet, you get mugged… and then ‘Welcome to London’ takes on a more sarcastic resonance.”

Rain Before Seven.. is available digitally, CD, and on black and limited clear vinyl from July 7th 2023

The film Sweetwater tells the story of Nat “Sweetwater” Clifton, the first Black player signed to the NBA. Set in 1950, the soundtrack evokes the era with jazz & blues ranging from sultry Gershwin standards to juke-joint blues. The soundtrack also uses those sounds to springboard into the present tense with newly wri en tracks that kick down the walls between past and present as joyously as they erase genre boundaries

Highlights from the soundtrack include “Taking Me Higher,” a soaring new anthem from Keb’ Mo’, Gary Clark Jr. and Emmaline’s romp through the ZZ Hill classic “Down Home Blues,” and a beguiling collaboration between multiple Grammy-winners and NEA Jazz Masters Dianne Reeves and Terri Lyne Carrington on “Someone To Watch Over Me ”

“The riotous debut offering from this electropunk outfit is a send-up of old-school hip-hop, '90s diva house and classic surf rock... Get your pelvises shaking -- this is the party disc of 2003!” – SALON

In the most exciting musical event of 2023, Oakland punk pranksters Gravy Train!!!! re-issue their debut LP Hello Doctor on its 20th anniversary. Lumped in with the electroclash genre of the early aughts, Gravy Train!!!’s music draws from so much more, collecting in a delicious puddle of theatrical new wave, vintage bubble-glam, chipmunk punk, and organ-driven surf rock over dimestore beats that NEVER quit. From band origin story “Hella Nervous” to queer anthem “You Made Me Gay” to the ONLY ode to fast food and motherhood “Burger Baby”, the hits are all here, and they sound shockingly fresh to this day. The band’s wild, hilarious, and totally unique style is the work of singer/lyricist Chunx, keyboardist Funx, and singer/keyboardist Hunx (also featured: former dancer Drunx, later replaced by Junx). Known for their exhilarating live shows chock full of stunts and shenanigans, Gravy Train!!!!’s magic is also captured on this LP, placing them squarely in rock herstory somewhere between riot grrrl, the B52’s, LaBouche, and Jingle Cats. But Pitchfork said it best when they gave Hello Doctor a legendary 2.9 rating, calling it “kinda funny”, “certainly not great music” with a “weird innocence.” If that’s not iconic, NOTHING is!!!

RELEASE DATE: 23-June-2023

Black Duck captures a band already deeply in tune with one another. The three-piece super-group consists of Douglas McCombs, Charles Rumback, and Bill MacKay each have distinct musical voices that are instantly recognizable, yet blend seamlessly with one another. Their time performing together, playing to the moment and reading each other and the spaces they’re in, formed a fluency between the trio which allows them to follow each other down winding paths and short tangents alike. McCombs is a founding member of Tortoise, Pullman, and Brokeback as well as the long standing bassist for Eleventh Dream Day, an artist whose contribution to the music world can not be overstated. MacKay began releasing records in the early 2000s. He has released several acclaimed solo albums with Drag City as well as a duo album each with Nathan Bowles (Banjo, Black Twig Pickers), and Katinka Kleijn (Cello, Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO)), and two beloved records with Ryley Walker Rumback burst onto the fertile Chicago improvised music scene in the early 2000’s. His fluid technique and expressive playing garnered him much attention. In addition to his solo releases, Rumback has recorded with Ryley Walker, jazz greats such as Jim Baker, James Singleton, and Greg Ward Black Duck’s debut is a testament to that fluency, an expedition led by three veterans into alluring worlds bathed in myriad splendors. Black Duck is a gallery of sonic tapestries, unbound by any genre constraints. Black Duck redefines what two guitarists and a drummer can do, pieces move from breezy shuffles to stormy blues rumbles to gorgeous textural drones. Playing entirely improvised live sets for years helped develop the trio’s acute senses for one another, knowing precisely how to listen to the others and bolster whatever direction they move in. In the short time the trio have played together, they have performed at Big Ears Festival and alongside acts like Yo La Tengo.

“The first single,”Of the Lit Backyards”, is a lovely guitar-led instrumental slathered in tremolo and wistful vibes, drifting and halting with its own unique sense of momentum. I can absolutely imagine it soundtracking a scene in an indie film...”

-Stereogum

“As McCombs completes his solo explorations on VMAK, the music carries him back to his long-perfected sweet spot: as a critical cog in a machine of guitar-centered magic, reading the room for just the right moments.” -Pitchfork

“[Charles Rumback], a veteran of the Chicago free-jazz scene, can make a drum set sing— exploring melody and timbre within his gleeful grooves, treating each ride cymbal and brushed snare like its own voice in a choir.” -Relix

“[MacKay] Locates the sublime in the mundane…. finds something special in what we see around us every day, and that may be fundamentally what folk music is all about.”

Jeremy Tuplin - Orville's Discoteque

Trapped Animal LP

TAR095V

5055869549837

Welcome to Orville’s Discotheque: a synth-drenched concept album brought to you by indie singer-songwriter from Somerset. Set in a world slightly left of reality, the record tells the story of a flawed disco-enthused antihero and his romantic travails. The album charts the stumble and fall of a self-obsessed dancing antihero and his romantic travails. The single sets the scene of the first time the album’s protagonist, Orville, sees his new romantic interest, Eugenie, whilst performing in a disco club night; fascinated by her dance moves that include “hula hoop hips”, “loose helicopter arms”, and whatever else. The lyricism blends self -deprecating humour with poetry, whilst the sound marks another step in the continued evolution of Tuplin ’s musical vision, incorporating his lyrical songwriting and intricate storytelling within a loosely defined genre of “indie disco” - or even “dark disco” and “devilish disco” that he references in the song itself. Orville ’s Discotheque is his fourth album, following his independently released debut I Dreamt I Was An Astronaut in 2017, Pink Mirror (2019), and Violet Waves (2020) both on Trapped Animal Records. Press quotes : Bill Callahan on shrooms” - The Line of Best Fit 9/10 // "Tuplin belongs in the lineage of arch dramatists like Tindersticks and The National" - Uncut 8/10 // “A dreamy, ambling trip with a smattering of celestial embellishments ” - The Independent // "The folk rock surrealist ’s third albuneevm represents a hugely enjoyable, drug fuelled space odyssey" Loud & Quiet Magazine 9/10 // “Walking the line between cynicism and wonder is not an easy task, yet Jeremy Tuplin seems to pull this off with ease ” - For The Rabbits // "The folk rock surrealist ’s third album represents a hugely enjoyable, drug fuelled space odyssey" Loud & Quiet Magazine 9/10 //

SARATHY KORWAR DAY TO DAY (REPRESS)

Release Date: June 23rd, 2023

Limited edition repress on translucent orange/black marbled vinyl of the extraordinary 2016 debut album from percussionist and producer Sarathy Korwar, “Day to Day” fuses traditional folk music of the Sidi community in India (combining East African, Sufi and Indian influences) with jazz and electronics. Sarathy has since established himself as one of the most original and compelling voices in the UK jazz scene and has collaborated with the likes of Shabaka Hutchings, Arun Ghosh, Hieroglyphic Being and Photay. He has toured with Kamasi Washington, Anoushka Shankar, Yussef Kamaal and Moses Boyd.

“Day to Day” is a collaborative release by Ninja Tune with The Steve Reid Foundation. Sarathy was an alumnus of the Foundation’s development program in 2015, mentored by Four Tet, Floating Points, Koreless, Emanative and Gilles Peterson – all trustees of the foundation.

“Refreshingly different, this is a deep and powerful listening experience.”

Four Tet

“An exceptional debut by this multi-percussive artist fusing jazz, electronic and Indian harmonics.”

It’s been a steady process of growth and a long time coming to arrive at this sophomore full-length for the man known in his native Steel City and beyond as producer/keyboardist/DJ Buscrates, and every minute of it can be heard and felt on these ten funky and highly evocative tracks.

The finely-honed balancing act between vintage-80s-synth goodness and neck-snapping 90s boom bap, all coated with just the right amount of soulful melodic sensibility never falters at any point on the album. For a more specific comparison, think Manzel's Midnight Theme LP updated for these strange times we're in seems to fit the bill, especially on tracks like "Prisms," "Floating In The Wind" and "Early Morning." This is the funky instrumental mood music you desperately need right now whether you realize it or not, and Buscrates is here to serve it up. "Buckin'" is prominent among the many highlights of the Pittsburgh producer’s album, strongly evoking the likes of Paul Hardcastle, Atmosfear and the Art Of Noise while simultaneously paying homage to the funk/R&B roots of Detroit techno pioneers like Juan Atkins and Derrick May. The album's sonic journey culminates in "On My Way," the only vocal track on the album and which features Soraya Watti's lovely vocals. One can easily imagine this track on the playlist of NY's WBLS in the early 80s. Soraya's smooth and soulful tones prove to be the perfect addition and act as a kind of sexy ghost in the Buscrates machine. The album as a whole feels like nothing so much as an updated, postmodern version of the kinds of sleek, funky grooves oozing through your Cadillac's 8-track deck circa 1972.

It's music that's "smooth" in all the best possible connotations of the term: music that's smooth on the streets and also smooth between the sheets. It's sleek, sexy and very, very funky, which will come as no surprise to Bus' 12,000 Twitch followers accumulated over the course of his weekly Friday stream. Notable fans and supporters of his include Jazzy Jeff, Francois K, Dâm Funk, Rich Medina, and Spinna. Even more believers in his funky gospel have come as a result of his increasing road gigs in cities like Berlin, NYC, Detroit and Washington DC.

This new album is both a culmination and the beginning of a glorious new phase. Buscrates' time is right now.

Malcolm Holcombe

Bits & Pieces

Malcolm Holcombe is a survivor

Most recently, a cancer survivor, so it's a real gift to have this, his 18th album of brilliant vignettes and expressive musicianship. Shortly after his diagnosis in 2022, he and Jared Tyler decided to get these songs recorded, just the two of them, not knowing w hat the future held in store for them. To musicians, giving life to new songs can feel as critical as life's most basic needs. If a completed album can come from it, all the better.Jared Tyler is the musical shadow of Malcolm: able to anticipate his next moves, predict what's needed when, and provide just the right embellishment and backbone on harmonies, guitars, mandola, dobro, banjo, etc. Jared produced this album, along with Brian Brinkerhoff. No one can fully get inside the musical mind of the great Ma lcolm Holcombe, but Jared comes as close as anyone ever could. You can memorize his lyrics, you can witness the awe and power and transcendent experience of his live performances, but you still won't be absolutely certain that you see exactly what he's seeing. And that's but one of his many attributes. One that has perhaps made contemporaries like Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams, Steve & Justin Townes Earle, and Iris DeMent fans of his.Malcolm Holcombe: singer, songwriter, survivor. He survives thanks in part to the fire and passion and conscience that you witness in his craft. "I will not hide from the words of justice / I will not join the cries of liars / I will not keep my heart from climbing from the dust I swallowed behind. ...Great spirit lift me from despair / to your bosom sweet and fair"

("Conscience of Man")

Tracks: Bits And Pieces / Fill Those Shoes / Hard Luck City / The Wind Doesn't Know You / Conscience Of Man / Ev'ry Soul Is There / Happy Wonderland / Another Sweet Deal / Bootstraps / Eye Of A Needle / Rubbin' Elbows / I've Been There / Bring To Fly

Ripples in the Doldrums

Dead Slow Mu�ny Sweden�s Joel Lundberg is a mul�-talented musical wizkid. As a performer (on guitar and bass!) he has toured the US, Japan and throughout Europe with Kristoffer & The Harbour Heads.

On top of that suppor�ng ar�sts like Debbie Harry and Mumford & Sons. With a master�s degree in composi�on and improvisa�on from University of Gothenburg, studying under Professor Johannes Landgren and Professor Anders Jormin, he is a featured composer and arranger on recordings in various genres. For the app Sleep Cycle he has produced hour-long, ever-changing ambient tonal works for modular synthesizer.

His first album of classical piano composi�ons, Music from a Room (2020) invoked comparisons to Debussy, Ravel and Sa�e – “while remaining firmly at home in the 21st century” – and cri�cal acclaim:

“A refreshing respite from an uncertain reality.” (No Dead Guys)

“O�en lush with rich textures” (Planet Hugill)

The follow-up album, Odysseys and Apostrophes, is an openminded explora�on, an associa�ve inves�ga�on, a stream-of-consciousness-like musical journey. Once again performed by pianist Kalle Stenbäcken.

First track released was immediately picked up by Nils Frahm, and is featured on his very popular playlist on DSPs.

OVERVIEW

We’ve waited long for life signs from Seven Impale, meanwhile the members have been busy with life. Vocalist/guitarist Stian graduated from the Grieg Academy as an opera singer and launched an international career. Keyboardist Håkon joined Enslaved. Some got kids, and some finished their education. Life happened. Though, truth being told, the guys have kept the band, if not warm, at least lukewarm. And now, the long-awaited third album from Seven Impale is finally here, seven years after “Contrapasso”.

The new album “Summit” continues in a well-known Seven Impale style, blending jazz and progressive rock with more heavy influences into four juggernaut tracks. Without leaving the madness of “City of the Sun” and “Contrapasso” behind, the album gives the music and lyrics the space and time needed to captivate and dazzle.

Seven Impale might have reached the summit on this one, but does it mean they have nowhere to go from here?

“Summit” was recorded in Solslottet, Bergen. Produced, mixed and mastered by Iver Sandøy.

Line-up: Benjamin Mekki Widerøe – Saxophone, Erlend Vottvik Olsen – Guitars, Fredrik Mekki Widerøe - Drums, guitars, vocals, Håkon Mikkelsen Vinje - Keyboards, Vocals, Stian Økland - Guitars, Vocals, Tormod Fosso - Bass

The new demos caught the attention of Duchess Box Records who swiftly took the artist for a record deal and have been working to start the hype with the first singles gaining more and more attention with each one.

TEll A ViSiON has been playing shows all around Germany and recently toured in 2000 cap venues with Guano Apes.

Fee Kurten started making music as a child in her hometown of Hamburg and was laying down rap tunes throughout her teenage years.

TEll A ViSiON fuses a mix of influences from early hip hop, new wave, dub. trip hop and post punk.

The High Water Marks formed in 2003 when Hilarie Sidney (The Apples in Stereo, Elephant 6-Co-Founder) and Per Ole Bratset (Palermo) met in Oslo after an Apples concert. The band have previously released 4 official albums, Songs About the Ocean (2004) Polar (2007), Ecstasy Rhymes (2020), and Proclaimer of Things (2022). The High Water Marks continue their streak with the band’s third album in three years, recorded with the same transatlantic lineup, Øystein Megård and Logan Miller.

The High Water Marks’ “Your Next Wolf” is a 17 track treasure chest of melodic gold from the “good old days” of indie music. Sidney and company have taken the best of what indie rock enthusiasts remember and effortlessly replicate it over and over again.

Chaos

OVERVIEW

Chaos For The Fly is the debut solo album from Grian Chatten, vocalist of Dublin’s critically-acclaimed band Fontaines D.C.

Rare moments of respite from a relentless touring schedule afforded Chatten the opportunity to start work on something for himself, occupying a completely different headspace from his hugely successful work within Fontaines D.C.

Co-produced by the band’s longstanding producer Dan Carey, the album is the most poetic we’ve heard yet from Chatten. Each song here has a sweep of colour and textures that breathe life into his lucid tales. Over its nine tracks, Chaos For The Fly is a record that takes in all of life’s emotions and stories. A place you not only want to visit, but will find yourself returning to again and again.

It’s been a tremendous run for Fontaines D.C., debuting at number one in both the UK and Ireland with their third album, the critically acclaimed and Ivor Novello nominated Skinty Fia, and taking home the BRIT award for International Group of the Year. It followed 2020’s A Hero’s Death, which was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2021 GRAMMYS®️, and their debut, 2019’s Dogrel, which was nominated for both the Mercury Music Prize and Ireland’s Choice Music Prize.

Hayden Pedigo

The Happiest Times I Ever Ignored

Description / Bio:

Inspired by the tragicomedic legacy of National Lampoon co-founder Doug Kenney (in whose notes the line ‘These last few days are amongst the happiest I’ve ever ignored’ was found following his mysterious and untimely death), Hayden Pedigo embarked upon The Happiest Times I Ever Ignored with a no-shit aim: to create “the best instrumental acoustic guitar album of the past twenty years.” Though canonical works of comedy and music show their influence—the mournful beauty of Nick Drake, the puckish abandon of John Fahey—Pedigo by no means places their creators on pedestals; if anything pulling them from their plinths, smashing the alabasters, pocketing some pieces, gluing others back together upside down, or leaving them floating free.

Pedigo has lived many lives, having been homeschooled in Amarillo, Texas by his truck-stop preacher father; run for Amarillo City Council in 2019, aged 25—as documented by Jasmine Stodel’s SXSW-premiering, PBS-acquired film Kid Candidate—and struck up pen-friendships and collaborative partnerships with the likes of Terry Allen, Charles Hayward ( This Heat), Werner “Zappi” Diermaier ( Faust), and Tim Heidecker. A move south from Amarillo to Lubbock in 2020 put a spark to the powder keg of his creativity. The move produced not only The Happiest Times and its predecessor Letting Go, but also an Internet presence that showcases a panoply of ever-more outlandish outfits and an effortless deadpan wit. Both the former and the latter helped parlay him into the fashion world, too, having walked the runway for Gucci and been photographed by Hedi Slimane.

In June 2022, Pedigo transported the limbered-up record to Pulp Arts in Gainesville, Florida, where the relentless practice paid off: he played the core acoustic compositions in track order, beginning to end, and by the evening of the first day, realized he’d essentially nailed the record in one go. After tracking the main narrative of the guitar, a studio team of producer Trayer Tryon ( Hundred Waters, Moses Sumney) on synths and bass, Luke Schneider ( Margo Price, Orville Peck) on pedal steel, and Robert Edmondson on electric bass and piano painted in a sunset of sound behind the acoustic parts, lighting them with a warm glow while allowing them to remain front and center of the scene.

How might Fahey have played in a Midwest emo band? Pedigo posits on “Nearer, Nearer,” while the specters of Bert Jansch and John Renbourn float somewhere above “Signal of Hope” – “the most Britishsounding thing I’ve ever written;” an echo in an empty church. Pedigo flits through the cycle of songs, coiling and uncoiling like the mechanism of a clockwork bird on “When It’s Clear;” rambling, a tiny speck in the landscape, on “Elsewhere.” “Then It’s Gone” stands as stark as a leafless tree, guitar spilling a somber tale in its truest voice – and nowhere more than on the title track is Pedigo’s playing more affecting: regret and optimism balanced on intimate, intricate arrangement, as carefully poised as raindrops on guitar strings.

Selling Points

A multi-hyphenate with a cheeky sense of humor, Hayden is the son of a truck stop preacher and friends with Tim Heidecker, ran for Amarillo City Council at the age of 24 (and starred in a documentary about it), walked in a Gucci fashion show in November 2021, and is very entertaining and engaging via Instagram and Reddit with an active fanbase.

Side B: You Know Who Someone You Can’t Move Time’s Standing Still Rich Rudy

Stoned & Alone

You Know Who is the sophomore album from Athens, GA’s own, The Pink Stones. Created In the heart of Athens with their trusty producer Henry Barbe (Deerhunter, Drive-By Truckers), You Know Who is an 11-song record that pushes the boundaries of modern country and rock n’ roll music. The Pink Stones’ sound takes influence from recordings of George and Tammy, as well as J.J. Cale’s self produced Tulsa sound. The record is also just as inspired by the windy city cuts of Curtis Mayfield, all styles that cover the band’s sound in cigarette smoke and whiskey spills. The sextet has utilized their performing chops to make a tight but soulful album featuring guests such as Nikki Lane, Jack Quiggins and Ryan Jennings (Teddy & the Rough Riders), John James Tourville (Deslondes), and Annie Leeth (Faye Webster). No strangers to friends and guests, this ramshackle unit formed together flawlessly to take the next leap into The Pink Stones deep sphere.

TL; DR: Twelve perfectly-constructed pop gems from the ever-prolific RPPs.

RIYL: The Television Personalities, Galaxie 500, The Go-Betweens, Felt, Magnetic Fields.

Dedicated "to everyone who ever tried to start a band in the Bay," The Reds, Pinks & Purples' new collection The Town That Cursed Your Name is at once achingly local and heartrendingly universal. Over the last few years The RPPs' Glenn Donaldson has attracted a lot of attention with his gorgeous, lyrical pop and for good reason; his almost-paradoxical combination of productivity and peerless quality has delivered 6 albums and countless singles in just 3 years, and that's only what has actually been released!

“The Town That Cursed Your Name" gathers together twelve perfectly-constructed pop gems, some previously unheard and some released for just a few days and then withdrawn, but all adhering to the absurdly high standards of song-craft that Donaldson hews to. Echoes of everything from The GoBetweens to Felt to Magnetic Fields echo through his songs, informed by an extreme dedication to detail and no small amount of outright fandom. Songs like "Life In The Void," "Waiting on a Ghost to Haunt You" and "Too Late For An Early Grave" speak earnestly about living and making art on the periphery, finding universal truth the dazzling specificity of Donaldson's San Francisco experience.

TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER + ANTI - MATTER

Release Date: 30th June 2023

King Geedorah aka MF DOOM is perhaps the most legendary and revered living figure in underground hip hop today. On the conceptual classic: Take Me To Your Leader he takes the form of a giant three-headed lizard from outer space to give you “Geedorah's alien perspective on humans".

This re-issue includes Take Me To Your Leader on 2LP Black Vinyl + Anti-Matter on 7” Black Vinyl as a bundle package. For for the 20th anniversary edition, we've gone for the original red and white artwork, gatefold sleeve. The 7" is also in original 7" artwork.

13 tracks all produced, written, recorded, arranged, mixed and mastered by the Metal Fingered Villain himself, MF DOOM

A generation of musicians have grown up in awe of DOOMhe’s influenced and worked with Flying Lotus, Earl Sweatshirt, Madlib, Clams Casino, Danger Mouse, RZA, Ghostface Killah, De La Soul and more.

Originally released in 2003 - a year before MadvillainMadvillainy, the collaborative opus with Madlib (Stones Throw / Jaylib / Quasimoto) - TMTYL was a critical success. “You don't know it yet, but this is your favorite album of the summer. Sh*t, of this whole foul, corporate-owned, Republican-approved year of our lord, two thousand and three.” Pitchfork (9.0)

Alongside the classic Operation: Doomsday (Fondle ‘Em), Take Me To Your Leader is a criminally rare full-length studio production project from MF DOOM - off-centre beats that owe much to his love of jazz, fantastically skilled, charismatic MCing and ideas galore.

Features a variety of vocal guests (some under alias) including MF DOOM, Kurious, MF GRIMM (as Jet Jaguar) and other members of NYC’s Monsta Island Czars and more.

BACK IN THE EARTHLY BINS, ON LUNAR BLUE VINYL!

Across the history of jazz, there is no wilder, more future-forward composer and performer than Herman Poole Blount, aka Sun Ra. Known as much for his wild on-stage persona as his innovative compositions, Sun Ra was the avant-garde bleeding edge of the jazz genre, introducing modal composition and electronic instrumentation before almost anyone else -- not to mention bringing the space age to life with his obsession with all things extraterrestrial. Across more than 100 LPs released in his lifetime, Sun Ra charted a course to space and far, far beyond.

Modern Harmonic proudly presents The Space Age Is Here To Stay, the very first collection of Sun Ra’s vocal tracks — two albums’ worth of mind-blowing tunes from the mind of the Man from Saturn himself. Your choice of CD or 2LPs wrapped in a gorgeous package featuring artwork by the king of space-age art himself, Chesley Bonestell. Includes extensive liner notes from Charles Blass of Sun Radio. Cue this one up and get ready to visit other worlds in Sun Ra’s jazz rocket ship!

Extra Crispy Bluegrass!

Released by Shiloh Records in 1978, 1966 was a curious album, the bucket of tunes contained only two songs in the Colonels’ regular repertoire while the rest was made up of finger lickin’ good covers and traditionals. This reissue expands the offering with some of their earliest known recordings, combining to form a full menu from a legendary band that ushered bluegrass into a more modern era!

The band, led by the virtuosic mandolin player Roland White, delivers a collection of traditional and original tunes that showcase their impeccable musicianship and tight harmonies.

Overall, the Kentucky Colonels' 1966 album is a must-listen for anyone who loves bluegrass music. It's a timeless classic that showcases some of the genre's finest musicians at their very best.

The Kentucky Colonels came along at a crucial time and helped usher bluegrass into a more modern era. The band’s fresh, youthful, fun-loving approach to bluegrass, coupled with a respect for tradition but the willingness to push the boundaries of the music, made the Colonels a band for the ages. A half-century after the band’s last recordings, the Kentucky Colonels still matter.

THE FLESHTONES

DO YOU SWING? (20th Anniversary)

LP STREET DATE: 6/30/2023

Garage rock legends The Fleshtones released their Yep Roc debut Do You Swing? in 2003 to wide-acclaim, with AllMusic saying “Do You Swing? shows they’ve still got the rock -- and if anything, they’re getting better at serving it up.” Produced by Southern Culture on the Skids’ Rick Miller at his infamous Kudzu Ranch recording studio, the songs answer the question proposed by the album’s title, featuring a swingin’ selection of 11 original tunes, plus Super Rock™ renditions of The Searchers’ “Alright” and Led Zeppelin’s “Communication Breakdown.” The album has been out-of-print on vinyl since its original 2003 release and fetches tidy sums in the circles of garage rock aficionados. For its 20th anniversary, the album has been remastered for vinyl by Mike Westbrook of MW Audio and is pressed on pink splatter vinyl!

“Do You Swing? is one of the strongest Fleshtones albums to date, boasting material every bit as potent as what they served up on Roman Gods and Hexbreaker, and sounding fresh, energetic, and gloriously alive.” - AllMusic

HIGHLIGHTS:

☛ 20th anniversary reissue of The Fleshtones long-out-of-print 2003 masterpiece Do You Swing?

☛ First time the album has ever been reissued after its original pressing in 2003 of less than 500 copies.

☛ Pressed on pink splatter vinyl - first time the album has ever been available on color vinyl.

☛ The 20th anniversary reissue is limited to 1,000 copies.

☛ Produced by Rick Miller of Southern Culture on the Skids.

☛ Remastered for vinyl by Mike Wesbtrook of MW Audio.

Los Amigos Invisibles the new sound of the venezuelan gozadera

25th anniversary

Tell

When Los Amigos Invisibles first released “The New Sound”—exactly a quarter of a century ago!)—it was the ultimate party album. Time has passed, but the party has kept on— and this party music, full of nonstop funked out grooves—traveling through house, funk, acid jazz, and bossa nova, to name a few musical avenues—is a journey deep into the pants of rhythm. (We won’t even mention the old sound of the Venezuelan Gozadera).

“Coming towards the end of the nine-song journey, is possibly one of the best Blues-riffed Stoner Rock explosions in the history of modern rock—quite literally. Griggs’ lead guitar is in absolute rare form and exemplifies some of the best playing I have ever heard from him—ever.” – TONE Scott / GOLDMINE

EL PERRO is Parker Griggs of RADIO MOSCOW brand new band. The sound contains elements that fans of Radio Moscow will recognize and love, but this is rock music with a new, fresh spin and feel.

STREET DATE: JUNE 30, 2023

TRACKLISTING

SIDE A

SIDE B

Over the course of four years, James Jackson Toth and long-time collaborator Jarvis Taveniere paired newly written songs with ones drawn from decades ago and brought together musicians from across the various eras of his time recording as Wooden Wand—in the end creating an accidental self-imposed This Is Your Life. “I was bringing people together from my history and writing songs that reckon with my past.” The resulting album, James & The Giants picks at the seams of the memories borne of that experience and finds new footing in reframing memory.

Whether reassessing his origin story as a child on Staten Island during “Islander” or detailing the complex and nuanced nature of even the closest relationships on the horn-laden “Friends Forever”, James & The Giants trades in the imagery and sounds of Americana, but subtly and thoughtfully tilts the frame until a new, mature perspective emerges. Nothing is as simple as it seems, he seems to say, but the complications are part of the beauty.

5. Right Here in the Dark

6. A Strangers Curse

7. Tyrants Weep Alone

While maintaining their unique sound, there’s a new direction for Vulture Industries on their fifth album, as they lean towards the dark side of hard rock. “Ghosts from the Past” was written over a long period, and in a time of big changes both in their personal lives and in the world around us. This album is somehow a mirror of this. It reflects fear of a world spinning out of control, and a sense of powerlessness in the face of a world order falling apart. Crumbling only to be replaced by old ideas fronted by autocratic warlords with no sight in mind but their own power and legacy.

Pulling on a wide range of influences; From dust riddled Spaghetti Westerns accompanied by Ennio Morricone, past the monochrome melancholia of apocalyptic post punk, through deep valleys and steep hills shrouded in progressive darkness and a Nordic noir looking to solve the unexplained murder of the truth. Landing on something once described by a fan as “This is how Nick Cave would sound like if he made metal.”, Vulture Industries has long since established itself as something singular, yet once familiar, strangely recognizable.

With a writing and production process that was the band’s longest haul to date, for a long time they felt lost and struggling to find a sense of direction. Now, we can say it is their strongest album to date and we hope you will enjoy what is essentially a piece of their soul.

LP-APR-150 2LP 7090039726487

OVERVIEW

Hex A.D. returns with their most epic project to date! The upcoming double LP «DELIGHTFUL SHARP EDGES» is a concept album that deals with genocide. The record is a three-part narrative that takes the listener on a musical and lyrical journey into the horrors and tragedies of organized liquidation on a massive scale. Musically speaking the band has ventured into new melodic territories inspired by Thin Lizzy and Wishbone Ash, as well as having gone deeper into their doomy and progressive roots. The stories told through the lyrics have dictated much of the musical expression on this massive piece of work, and it’s safe to say that this album sees Hex A.D. show their most larger-than-life tendencies.

Never has a Norwegian band gone this far in creating a proper concept album in the proud tradition of the masters from the 1970s, and this one truly hits the mark. It has become a roller-coaster ride of emotions, from the haunting, sweet and the epic to the doomy and spine chilling. To be able to reproduce this grand new sound in a live setting, the band have added a second drummer and an additional guitar player. Both musicians go back decades with the members of Hex A.D, either as stand-ins or from associated past projects.

Music such as this is the perfect vehicle for a big stage production, and Hex A.D. are about to show the hard rock world that they are a force to be reckoned with. The massive new stage setup is a one-of-a-kind construction that sets the mood for the show in a unique way. This is Hex A.D. stepping up!

PIGEON RETURN WITH A BRAND NEW OFFERING

OVERVIEW:

Following up on their acclaimed debut EP Yagana in 2022, the 5-piece band return with a brand new offering: Backslider.

Dressed as if they would be equally comfortable starring in a modern spaghetti western as they are cutting slick silhouettes on a festival stage - are Guinean singer Falle Nioke, Graham Godfrey on drums, Steve Pringle on keys, Tom Dream on guitar and Josh Ludlow on bass.

As Pigeon develop and hone their sound further, Afrodisco remains at the core while jazz and no-wave make way for new elements of electro, rock and synth pop. The introduction of sequencers and drum machines sprinkles a little more structure into the mix, however the recording process still very much embodies the DIY spirit of band members that enjoy jamming together.

With previous support from Gilles Peterson, Elton John, Iggy Pop, Bandcamp, NPR, Uncut and many more, the new Pigeon will undoubtedly fly off the shelves.

FOR FANS OF:

Falle Nioke, Michael Kiwanuka, Sault, Moses Boyd, Sons of Kemet, Ghost Culture, Ill Considered.

Will Oldham & Lori Damiano Shorty’s Ark

DC1121B Hardcover Book

Shorty’s Ark is a book for young readers, a collaborative effort between singer Will Oldham and graphic artist Lori Damiano, based on work by Oldham and musician Matt Sweeney. Drawing inspiration from the story of Noah, Shorty’s Ark names and pictures a wild variety of species to inform and engage an equal variety of young minds with the diversity that can be found around this great planet of ours. The flood stands as metaphor for current impending changes in our planet, and the story works as a springboard for understanding concepts of interdependency, diversity and extinction. Colorfully illustrating as many creatures and their places as possible, Shorty’s Ark is an earth-affirmative vision meant to stimulate the curiosity and passion of those who encounter it.

About the Makers of Shorty’s Ark

Will Oldham makes songs, mostly out of his home in Louisville, KY where he lives with his wife Elsa Hansen Oldham and their daughter, Poppy Jo. Increasingly, Oldham’s lyrics make sense. He loves partnering up in order to make the strongest work; it was partnership that yielded the song “Shorty’s Ark” (it can be heard on Matt Sweeney & Bonnie ‘Prince Billy ’s recently released Superwolves album), and his partnership with Lori Damiano that make this book what it is.

Lori Damiano is an illustrator/animator/textile artist based in Oregon. She loves to tell stories in pictures made out of paint, yarn, or pixels. A lot of the stories she draws are based on observing her fellow earthlings while aboard a skateboard, horse, or motorcycle.

GRAMMOFON-MISSIONEN

Carl-Henrik Olsson and Stefan Kéry

Swedish Jesus Music Aesthetics 1960 - 1990

With a preface by Johan Kugelberg and additional interviews by Emil Karlsson.

This lavish coffee table book takes an in-depth visual look back at the amazing art and graphics of the so-called Swedish Gramophone Mission.

The book presents the largest collection of Swedish Christian reco rds from the 1960s -1980s ever amassed featuring 777 record covers, many of them extraordinary and surreal private/custom pressings.

Jam packed with lots of interviews, liner-notes and previously unpublished photos describing both the success and tribula tions of the mission in vivid detail.

This collection documents and celebrates the Swedish Jesus Pop movement and is a striking record of its execution, art, and music.

“...Praise the lord with blues and jazz and symphony orchestras, with negro spirituals and with Beethoven’s Fifth, with guitars and xylophones, praise him with gramophones and tape recorders...”

Modern Cosmology ––

Duophonic Super 45s

What Will You Grow Now?

LP £12.99 DS3359LP 5024545973419

CD £7.25 DS45CD59 5024545996326

The second collaborative album from Laetitia Sadier [Stereolab & solo] and Brazil's Mombojó. Release via Stereolab's Duophonic Super 45s imprint. Modern Cosmology is a musical ensemble composed of six individuals of the human race, none of which are cosmologists or astronomers, although Felipe S. - who sings and plays the guitar - knows quite a bit about reading astrological charts. He shares his frontperson duties with one Laetitia Sadier who, by virtue of her singer-songwriter career both as a solo artist and as part of the Stereolab ‘groop’, happens to be one of the key figures of her bandmates’ musical formation. Their paths first crossed when Marcelo - also on guitars - lent his amp for some of Laetitia’s solo concerts in Brazil under the condition that he got to meet his musical idol, and along came his brother Vicente - who plays the drums - and keyboardist Chiquinho. The four lads, plus Missionário José on bass, are collectively called Mombojó, an established band on the Brazilian alternative scene. So Laetitia and Mombojó started collaborating, they first made a song called “Summer Long”, a video for that song directed by their friend Alex Carvalho, and then later an artistic residency in the northeast of Brazil which spawned four more songs, collected in an EP that also bears the name “Summer Long” (2016) It was while making this EP that Laetitia suggested that the collaboration turned into a band in its own right, and when the time came to send it out to the world they decided to present themselves as Modern Cosmology. “C’est le vent”, the opening track on the EP, also has a video directed by Luan Cardoso: “What will you grow now?” started in late 2016 on a recording session Mombojó did on a motorboat up the Capibaribe river in their Recife hometown. The title track was recorded there and then during this fluvial jam session, and the other backing tracks were recorded about a year later at a recording studio at the local University, after which Laetitia had a bunch of new material to add words and melodies to, from her Brazilian friends and bandmates with love. Life happened, COVID happened, new albums by Laetitia and Mombojó also happened, and between this and that Modern Cosmology managed to get six new tracks ready for release.

The Ballet - Daddy Issues

Fika Recordings LP FIKA095LP 5057998043811

12” frosted clear vinyl, edition of 500. File under: Indiepop, Synthpop. The amiable embrace of ambivalence distinguishes Greg Goldberg and Craig Willse’s output as the Ballet from the work of their funny musical uncles, like the Magnetic Fields ’ implacably ironic Stephin Merritt, the Hidden Cameras’ riot auteur Joel Gibb, even fairy godfathers Pet Shop Boys. ” Pitchfork [7.6] // "Big, confident pop songs that fizz with melody" Music OMH [4/5] // Formed in 2005 by Greg Goldberg and Craig Willse, The Ballet marry wry poeticism with pop romanticism and a queer DIY ethos to create literate, infectious pop gems. The band self -released their first two albums: Mattachine! (2006) and Bear Life (2009). These records caught the attention of indie -label-legends Fortuna Pop!, who released their third album, I Blame Society, in 2013. After FortunaPop! closed shop, The Ballet partnered with Fika Recordings, who released their 4th album, the critically acclaimed Matchy Matchy, in 2019. The Ballet have been joined by a few other musicians over the years including Ginger Brooks Takahashi and Michael O'Neill, who left in 2007 to join JD Sampson in MEN, as well as guest appearances on previous albums from Linton of The Aislers Set, Ramesh from Voxtrot, Scott Matthew, and Kaki King. In addition to citing Stephin Merritt as a formative influence, Goldberg who writes and home-records all of the band’s songs draws from an array of pop artists and periods; from 60’s bubblegum to 80’s synthpop and 90’s indiepop,. Goldberg gravitates towards upbeat tempos, major keys, and basic chords, using these restrictions to craft simple, catchy melodies while al so layering instruments in a way that keeps the ear engaged and rewards repeat listening. The relatively light and smooth sound of Daddy Issues sets the tone for Goldberg ’s unorthodox approach to his subject matter. As with previous Ballet albums, Daddy Issues offers a detail-rich examination of contemporary queer life, with a particular focus on the stigmatised desires, pleasures, and relations of gay men. Many queer artists have responded defensively to stigmatisation by asserting the political or psycholog ical value of queer sex. Goldberg’s approach is different. Rather than defending queer sex, he aims to capture some of its complexity and nuance. On Daddy Issues, Goldberg ’s songs describe the appeal but also the challenges of promiscuity and non -monogamy (“Eenie Meenie,” “Two Boyfriends”). His songs find humour in the mundane “dangers” of queer life (“I’m on Drugs,” “At the Bathhouse”) and in the queer juxtaposition of perversion and gentleness (“Daddy’s Boy,” “CumDumpMike”). An extramarital affair is treated with the levity of a teenage crush, and masculinity is characterised as both hot and somewhat tedious (“A Married Man”). The narrators of Goldberg’s songs are hedonists who go dancing all night, use illicit substances, and have anonymous, public sex, but they also express loneliness, regret, melancholy, and self -loathing (“Since You’ve Been Gone,” “The Fountain of Youth,” “I Don’t Feel Like Dancing”). To use such negative feelings to stigmatise gayness is homophobic, but so is denying their existence. Daddy Issues avoids both these pitfalls, instead capturing the co -existence of ecstasy and agony with humour, tenderness, and a lack of judgment. The album ’s title references a popular psychological diagnosis for people who are supposedly looking for surrogate fathers in their sexual or romantic partners, but it also suggests the issues of so -called daddies (older gay men). Rather than offering an ethnographic or autobiographical account of what it ’s like to be a daddy, Daddy Issues offers a meditation on the role of daddy, inviting listeners to imagine themselves in relation to it in various ways, while also questioning its coheren ce and stability. After all, nobody is born a daddy; it is something one becomes (or doesn ’t become), feels like (or doesn’t feel like), and is seen as (or isn’t seen as), if only for the duration of an album.

Panic Pocket – Mad Half Hour

Skep Wax Records

LP SKEPWAX014LP 5055869549974

CD SKEPWAX014CD 5055869549981

Debut Album ‘Mad Half Hour’ From London Punkpop Duo Panic Pocket. LP on pink vinyl, 500 copies Only. A new wave of indiepop is emerging in the UK, and Panic Pocket are at the forefront of it. Playful, tuneful, sardonic and sassy, Sophie and Natalie have been friends since childhood, know each other’s secrets - and probably know a few of yours too. Formed in 2017, Panic Pocket soon became a DIY sensation, releasing debut EP Never Gonna Happen , with Reckless Yes in 2019. Their debut album has found a new home. Amelia and Rob at Skep Wax Records fell in love with the mixture of punk-grrrl attitude and songwriting skill: “They reminded us of all our favourite bands rolled into one. Panic Pocket know how to turn anger and humour into brilliant pop songs. Many of Mad Half Hour’s 10 indie-pop anthems are concerned with being at odds with life's accepted milestones, feeling alienated from the people you thought wanted the same things as you, while trying to forge your own path.. If you want punkpop exuberance, lyrics that are so truthful they hurt, plus some very infectious tunes - then Mad Half Hour is exactly the soundtrack you need, right down to the minute.

Standers is the second full-length album by Craven Faults. It follows a trilogy of long sold out EPs, 2020’s Erratics & Unconformities LP, the Enclosures minialbum and a series of studio performances entitled Live Works

Meticulously curated, each release moves the Craven Faults story forward. Each one a self-contained analogue electronic journey across northern Britain, viewed through the lens of a century in popular music. Studios, venues and movements. Technology and ingenuity. Vibrations. Lines drawn to connect those moments of inspiration.

On Standers, there’s a sonic shift. A new palette to paint from and further refinement of the craft. We’re no longer exclusively travelling overland. Familiar landscapes are viewed from a different perspective. There’s a growing obsession in how this island came to look the way it does, and how its ancient and modern history affects its current population. Landscapes shaped by the elements, and then by countless conquerors and settlers. Livestock and machinery. Money, religion and politics.
