A year before that, following the success of her first Fly or Die album, branch whisked her incredible quartet across Europe where they stretched their songbook to its limit, improvising en modo deconstructivo, tugging at the music’s edges and relentlessly morphing the sound of a four-fold liberation machine that included branch (trumpet), Chad Taylor (drums), Jason Ajemian (bass), and newcomer Lester St. Louis (cello), who had recently replaced Tomeka Reid.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe continued rise of branch’s star coincided with an increasingly deep connection to International Anthem as the label formed tighter and tighter bonds with friends across the pond, particularly in London, where most of bird dogs of paradise was recorded (in studio at Total Refreshment Centre over three days in November 2018, and live at Café OTO over two nights that same week).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFLY or DIE II: bird dogs of paradise also introduced the wider world to branch’s singing voice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“So much beauty lies in the abstract of instrumental music,” branch says in the album’s original notes, “but being this ain’t a particularly beautiful time, I’ve chosen a more literal path.

That's the word that comes to mind when tasked with spending time on the overwhelming pop planet that belongs to Kai Slater's Sharp Pins. The universe only works when you submit: submit to love, submit to rock music. Submission to the power that comes from a kid wielding his guitar to craft impeccable guitar pop that stands in a pantheon of idols he joins with this record. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOf course it makes sense to be mad at first. Everyone was mad at Big Star for getting too close to the Beatles. And everyone will be mad at Sharp Pins for doing the same and then adding Guided by Voices into the mix. How dare he? The hubris. What 20 year old thinks they can out Robert Pollard the man himself? \"Queen of Globes and Mirrors?\" Criminal. With a worse crime of crafting songs so puzzlingly timeless, a listener may well believe they were poached from a lost Beatles tape. \"I Don't Have the Heart\" and \"(I Want to) Be Your Girl\" genuinely confuse from when or where they were made. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBut if Balloon x 3 reminds us of anything, it's that only Kai can do this. With his 12-string and infatigable obsession with pop music, Slater is uniquely equipped to carry the mantle of not only Pollard and Chilton, but the Byrds too, or the Temptations, the Four Tops, and every other artist trying to nail true love to tape. He employs the \"asking for forgiveness not permission\" tactic when tasked with borrowing from these greats, our only option is to forgive Slater for giving us these gems of rock n roll- propelling it from the past into a future so melodiously flawless, yet jagged and sincere, we can't help but thank him too for rescuing the genre from irrelevance. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBecause what Slater adds is entirely his own. An ineffable songwriting sensibility, that despite the heavy borrowing, can only be his. By the end of the album, you swallow whatever anger or incredulity you may have had and accept that yes, the Sharp Pins really are that good. Throughout the spanning but never indulgent LP, crafts a world peppered with small pop gems, so simply and stupidly good, they remind us another world is possible. Because it's not just that the songs are impossible to get out of your head, which they are. It's that Slater's own devotion to this pursuit of the perfect pop song makes us believe it is not only possible, but enough to give life shape and color again. Fall in Love Again is not a suggestion, it's a requirement. Not just with a beautiful girl, of whom there are many on the album, but with the world itself. Perhaps only then will it be possible to push toward the future that 20 year old Slater himself dreams of, but in the meantime, we have his love letters to rock n' roll and the world around it to keep us company. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etouring with their other band Lifeguard in June and july. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlso it's Great.

Formed in 1985 and dissolved by 1991, the band left behind a body of work that never saw a wide release. The band was nourished by a steady diet of the Minutemen’s Double Nickels on the Dime, Husker Du’s Metal Circus, Meat Puppets 2, Dinosaur Jr’s Yr Living All Over Me, Volcano Suns, and Mission of Burma. “Mercyland\" unveils eleven tracks recorded from 1985-1987 that are raw, urgent, and deeply tied to the American underground.

'Ferried Away' showcased that the band was unafraid of experimentation and exploration. The band's new album, 'Lunger,' doubles down on that, proving Stay Inside's commitment to bold production, conceptual arrangements, and even bigger hooks. On the Brooklyn genre-benders' first album for Tiny Engines, the band leans hard into their unique mix of indie and emo but never sticks to a single formula. Singer Chris Johns howls with a post-punk swagger, swaying between desperation for genuine connection and the manic confidence of a broken-hearted man with nothing to lose. Stay Inside's restless spirit pushes genre boundaries to the side as the band moves effortlessly from lively jangle pop to dark Americana twang to heavy, fuzzy grunge. Stay Inside continues to seamlessly incorporate horns into the mix, including their captivating live shows. From playful to menacing, the expansive instrumentation highlights the band's impressive evolution. Stay Inside has made quite the journey in their career from desolate post-hardcore to the wide open spaces encompassed on Lunger. The band has become masters of their craft, and Lunger is striking in its originality and depth. But perhaps the most exciting aspect here is what will come next for the band. If the last two records are any indication, Stay Inside is indeed bound for glory.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/track=2150971528\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/transparent=true\/\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tiny Engines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51441773281567,"sku":null,"price":24.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/files\/a3434914663_5.jpg?v=1764786049"},{"product_id":"melodys-echo-chamber-unclouded-lp","title":"Melody's Echo Chamber - Unclouded LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRELEASE DATE: 12\/5\/2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn her fourth album, Unclouded, Melody’s Echo Chamber embarks on a life-affirming new chapter with an album that celebrates the present moment, whatever state we find ourselves in.

The band was close to breaking up (vocalist Kay Hanley had already started another band on the side) when they released Aurora Gory Alice on a small, local (Boston) label called Cherrydisc Records in 1993. A year later, after receiving extensive airplay in New England, Billboard finally reviewed the album and the next day the band played a much-celebrated show at South by Southwest. Major labels then came calling, and Warner Brothers imprint Giant Records signed Letters to Cleo, re-releasing the album in 1994. But fame and fortune STILL eluded the band until Giant was asked to compile a soundtrack for the TV Show Melrose Place and put “Here \u0026amp; Now” on it. Success, however long-delayed, was swift; the song went Top Ten on the Modern Rock charts and the album likewise cracked the album charts. That success was also richly deserved; Aurora Gory Alice presents smart, melodic indie pop graced with Hanley’s soaring vocals. We’ve remastered this ‘90s classic for vinyl, and, with the band’s blessing, are bringing it to retail on LP for the first time with a sea blue pressing.

Recorded at COMA, Julia Kugel's home studio, and mixed through a custom Flickenger clone, the album drifts in and out of clarity like memory itself. It's emotionally retrospective, creatively unvarnished, and deeply human. You can hear it in the hiss, the warmth, in the vocals so raw they're like an open window. These songs weren't engineered for perfection. They were built to breathe. Her long-time collaborator and husband, Scott Montoya, mixes it all so loosely that you can hear the air between tracks- a space that makes the music feel inhabited rather than recorded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Bound\" opens the album like a secret passed between sisters, solemn and unspeakably close. It begins with the softest of touches: hushed guitar, a near-whispered delivery that carries the intimacy of someone singing only for one other person. It's a love song, but not romantic, more ancestral in the way long bonds can be. The lyric \"I will be your home\" is like a vow that has already been kept again and again. Hovering between devotion and entrapment, it unfolds slowly and sacredly. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll glow and undercurrent, \"I Know,\" is like hearing someone hum through a wound. The track arrives as if it had been waiting, coiled and complete, to be sung. It's pulse is slow but insistent, anchored on a hypnotic loop and a vocal that's half-incantation, half-confession. \"But I'm a fighter now\" rises like a mantra, fragile but certain, the kind of line that doesn't demand belief so much as carry it. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne of the most outward-facing songs on the record, \"Feeling Lucky,\" opens like a cigarette flicked in the dark- smoky and a little bit slick. Built on a skeletal beat and a nearly detached vocal, it leans into a sarcastic swagger that barely masks the ache beneath. The delivery is droll and glazed, the instrumentation is sparse and a little woozy, leaving space for her voice to sway-a shrug of a song, stylish in it's sadness. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"A Love That Hurts\" drifts in on soft, fingerpicked guitar and a dry, close-mic vocal that feels both haunted and immediate. The mix is stripped down and analog-warm, letting tape hum and silence frame the emotion. Julia sings like she's remembering something she doesn't want to, each line a slight unraveling. Like the rest of the album, \"A Love That Hurts\" doesn't push toward resolution. It sits in the ache, sifts through it, makes it beautiful. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSugaring a Strawberry doesn't seek catharsis so much as stumbles into it. There's a quiet volatility to these songs like they might fall apart if you press too hard. It moves in shadow and softness, asking questions it doesn't answer. It doesn't end with closure.

If not- it's time to get on board with one of the best kept secrets of 1990's punk. -Dead Broke Records\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/track=2235553185\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/transparent=true\/\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dead Broke Rekerds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51446670819615,"sku":null,"price":26.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/files\/a0907442664_5.jpg?v=1764974389"},{"product_id":"cigarette-camp-steps-lp","title":"Cigarette Camp - Steps LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRELEASE DATE: 12\/5\/2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCigarette Camp are back with their 3rd, 4th (who knows) release, but this time its their debut full-length!

Why so long between releases, you ask? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNov. 2020 the band was invited to be the first guinea pigs at No Fun Club recording studio in Winnipeg, Canada and baptize the brand new facility. The band would live and record in the studio and be densely immersed in the forming of this new record. It was still during the days of COVID lockdowns and the earliest stages of permitted, international travel. Producer, engineer and studio designer Mike Bridavsky (Deerhoof, Magnolia Electric Co., The Cowboys, Durand Jones \u0026amp; The Indications, Half Japanese, The Residents) welcomed us with open arms and helmed the controls. Unfortunately, a massive Arctic storm (even by Winnipeg standards) descended. The compound was without power for the first five days. Using generators running on diesel and heat powered by sheep tallow, the band had to resort to using as little electricity as possible. Most of what you hear on Yell At Cloud was recorded in the dark or by candlelight in below freezing conditions. It wasn’t as romantic as it sounds. Due to Canada’s regulations for foreign travelers during the pandemic, we had to forge out on foot once a day in blizzard-like conditions to a clinic a mile away where we had to be swabbed nasally, between the toes and in the groin area in order to be tested for COVID so we could be allowed to stay in the country for another 24 hours. Imagine a band trying making a record in John Carpenter’s The Thing.  This had a massive influence on the material and the way it was captured to tape. Finally the sessions became so intense the band members could no longer sustain focus to completion and decided to return home to finish the record at a later date. Months turned to years. Drummer Atom Willard was now the full time member of the Alkaline Trio. Guitarist John Reis focused on Hot Snakes and his solo recordings and shows with Swami John Reis. Singer and guitarist Rob Crow continued with Pinback and a myriad of projects both musical and visual. Bassist Jordan Clark reconnected with his band The Frights and began touring and recording with them once again. There was such a massive emotional dust cloud kicked up during the recording of Yell At Cloud that it took four years to settle. Finally, Ben Moore (who recorded and mixed the bands debut) stepped in and mixed Yell At Cloud. In order to a create seamless continuity with the original tracks, Ben mixed the majority of these files in the dark with the brightness of his screen turned to the lowest setting. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a claustrophobic album that searches for an oasis within. From lurching dissonance to uplifting harmonic convergences Yell At Cloud is a stark, black and white departure from their debut.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Swami Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51461296357663,"sku":null,"price":26.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/files\/266C7958-3399-4082-B8E0-F19C70328AE2_1024x1024_0eb25276-f2aa-460e-98b5-99c1bdc94046.jpg?v=1765402630"},{"product_id":"osees-live-at-the-broad-2lp","title":"OSEES - Live At The Broad 2LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRELEASE DATE: 11\/28\/2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHUUUUMANOIDS OF THE DEEP AND DARK WASTELAND,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere is a 2xLP of the Broad Museum show\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bunch of Krauty jams we’ve never played live before and a couple old favs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRight in time for record store day delivery late Nov.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMixed by JPD Mastered by the guru JJ Golden .\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere is a slab to burn one to while you jettison any garbage (good riddance) out the hatch…onward and upward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/track=3167034418\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/transparent=true\/\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Deathgod Corp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51461369790751,"sku":null,"price":36.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/files\/a2253008920_5.jpg?v=1765406484"},{"product_id":"albert-ayler-w-don-cherry-europe-1964-4lp","title":"Albert Ayler w\/ Don Cherry - Europe 1964 4LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn their short time together, Albert Ayler and Don Cherry created a body of music that genuinely exists in the moment.

Featuring newly remastered tracks and liner notes by Luscombe, the release offers fresh context to Penny's work and its role in the evolution of Japanese funk and groove culture. Hitomi \"Penny\" Tohyama was one of the few female singers to fully embrace Japan's burgeoning funk and boogie movement of the 1980s. Born in Okinawa in 1957 and raised partly in California, she developed a cosmopolitan outlook that would shape her music. At a time when the country's pop scene was shifting toward slick, funk-oriented productions, Penny crafted a distinctive style that fused boogie, disco, and funk with her confident, soulful delivery. Her albums for Nippon Columbia recorded in the '80s capture this vibrant moment, combining sophisticated studio craft with the pulse of Tokyo's nightlife. The selection includes cult classics such as \"Sexy Robot,\" \"Love is the Competition,\" and \"Instant Polaroid,\" with lesser-known gems such as \"Exotic Yokogao\" and \"I Love You Shika Omoitsukanai.\" Together they showcase the singer's versatility, moving effortlessly between syncopated upbeat floorfillers and chilled mid-tempo grooves. While her music earned recognition at home, these releases were never widely available outside Japan and slowly became prized finds among DJs and collectors. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eTokyo Funk Diva\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e presents highlights from this catalogue for the first time in an international release. Compiled by broadcaster and tastemaker Nick Luscombe, the selection has been newly remastered and comes with Luscombe's liner notes, retracing Penny's career and her role in the evolution of Japanese boogie and disco. As he writes in the liner notes, \"It's this deep musical craftsmanship -- both in the songwriting and performances -- that gives Penny Tohyama's work its lasting power. Her music feels as fresh and relevant today as it did when it was first released.\" With its mix of sharp production, irresistible rhythms, and Penny's unmistakable presence, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eTokyo Funk Diva\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e serves both as a long overdue introduction to one of Japan's original funk queens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/track=3468559901\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/transparent=true\/\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WeWantSounds (UK)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51609746800927,"sku":null,"price":36.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/files\/a3904058353_5.jpg?v=1770668727"},{"product_id":"loaded-honey-love-made-trees-lp","title":"Loaded Honey - Love Made Trees LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter years curating Jungle's funky sound, Kitto and Lloyd step into a more intimate space with their new project, Loaded Honey.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thirty Three Point","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51625387688223,"sku":null,"price":29.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/files\/ab67616d0000b2738e515a0c788f14697d9c6faa.jpg?v=1770930871"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.bullcityrecords.com\/collections\/new-releases-11-28-12-5.oembed","provider":"Chaz's Bull City Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
