Jordan Perry - Witness Tree ()

LP Edition of 400. Includes Download Slip. $19 Vinylization of a self-released cassette issued earlier this year by our favorite Virginia-based guitar player. Witness Tree is a brilliant follow-up to Perry’s eponymous debut LP (FTR 376), and expands upon the form-abstractions he first displayed there.  Mr. Perry has a firm and solid touch to his string wrangling, but unlike many of his contemporaries, he doesn’t seem to feel compelled to resolve all the melodic questions he raises. Perry often stops in a place he finds interesting, repeating rhythmic figures while trying out variations on the note/chord sequence that stopped him in the first place. It’s a goddamn fascinating approach and allows him to explore textual aspects of the acoustic guitar… Read more »

Mozzaleum - Dark Ride ()

LP Edition of 200. Comes with Download Code. Vinyl pressed in Cloudy Orange / Clear Vinyl. Bandcamp $21 The debut album by Western Mass trio, Mozzaleum, is an unholy union of hot cheese pie, cool Italian prog, and wanton horror movie lust. One gets the feeling this’s the sort of band that Roky Erickson dreams about after a few mugs of cocoa and a slasher flick watch-a-thon.  The three tracks on the first side all take their names from actual films (none related to the films’ music as far as I can tell), the five on the flip carry on in a more thematic manner. But the music on side two — keys, samples, effects, and Pinto’s amplified bowed-saw —… Read more »

Dead Sea Apes - The Free Territory ()

2LP with download code. Black Vinyl – Out Of Print Color Vinyl – Out Of Print Soundcloud Cardinal Fuzz (UK) and Feeding Tube Records (USA) present…Dead Sea Apes – The Free Territory Following the dub-inspired ‘Sixth Side Of The Pentagon’, retrospective ‘Recondite’ and Adam Stone collaboration ‘Warheads’, the new album by Dead Sea Apes is their darkest, moodiest work to date, their characteristic unfolding instrumentals now cast in lonesome drones and haunted atmospherics. Taking shape in the shadows over the past several years, The Free Territory brings Dead Sea Apes’ more experimental and introspective aspects to light. Dysmorphic loops, evolving textures and improvisations are suffused with the hiss of old tape decks and analogue effects, and adherence to the default guitar/bass/drums… Read more »

(New England) Patriots - Patriots ()

LP Edition of 300. Numbered. OUT OF PRINT  First actual vinyl record dedicated entirely to the music of Boston’s boss post-core art-punk trio. There other two long players are splits, with Palberta (FTR166) and Skimask. And while those two bands are certainly estimable in their own rights, the unadulterated CHURN of (NE) Patriots gives this album a very special squirm. Certain aspects of the blabber still make me think of the late, lamented Cows, and their whole whizzing raunch shebang. But there’s nothing in my personal listening history that has this exact brand of sonic adventurism. The Pats still just use guitars, drums and tongues at work in shaping their sounds (certain bass register tones being ascribed to fat strings,… Read more »

Maxine Funke - Home Fi ( / )

12″ (45rpm) includes Download Code. Edition of 400. First Pressing – OUT OF PRINT! Second Pressing – Plum Color Vinyl – $21 Copies still available at Forced Exposure Vinylization of the recent home fi cassette (originally released on the Australian Brierfirld Flood Press label) by this magnificent New Zealand singer/songwriter. We were never able to score a copy of the tape, despite the fact we released Maxine’s last LP, Silk FTR 410), so we figured we would perform the public service of making it generally available to the whole wide world. That’s just the kind of guys we are! Recorded in stark and simple terms, home fi represents Ms. Funke working mostly with just acoustic guitar accompaniment. And it’s a… Read more »

Plants of the Bible - Plants of the Bible ( / / )

LP Edition of 250. Includes download code. Mastered by Jeremy Pisani. $20 CASSETTE Edition of 200 includes download slip. $5 CD Edition of 500. $5 Here is the first physically graspable music available by this mysterious Western Massachusetts duo, whose sound has been called “Synthetic ASMR love balladry,” by more than one canny listener. Asking them to describe themselves, we received this missive: “Plants of the Bible started in a bedroom in Florence with a tape machine and a poem about an unkillable dog android before it quickly spiraled out of control into a real band with a real record. Their first album is a dreamy cast of imagined characters and everyday events built with elaborately layered sounds. Driven by… Read more »

C Joynes & The Furlong Bray - The Borametz Tree ()

LP Edition of 500. Co-Release with  Thread Recordings .    Available in UK/Europe via Thread Recordings $20 Feeding Tube is pleased to be able to offer the first domestic release from this project helmed by the superb British guitarist, C Joynes. For this album, Joynes has assembled a polyglot ensemble comprised of folks from Dead Rat Orchestra (a splendidly bizarre experimental völk outfit), guitarist Nick Jonah Davis (with whom Joynes recently shared a split LP of solo electric guitar improvs) and Cam Deas, who records both as a sound artist and an acoustic guitarist. The music they have created for The Borametz Tree (itself a semi-mythical tree found largely in travellers’ tales of the 1500s) is a difficult-to-describe hybrid of… Read more »

Wizard Prison - Next Cycle ()

LP Edition of 500 $12 Wizard Prison is a Seattle-based trio comprised of Scott Colburn (producer/engineer/frequent collaborator of the Sun City Girls, decade long member of Climax Golden Twins and audio genius for Sublime Frequencies), John Vallier (an early member of CGT) and Ben McAlister (of the Degenerate Art Ensemble). Wizard Prison’s music flirts with stoner metal riffery, kosmiche electronics and field recordings, usually at the same time. An intellectual might say their sound is in a state of constant “becoming.” Chiming, churning guitar/bass/drums give way to pulsating synths and pitch-shifted foreign voices chanting to open the door to an alternate dimension. Each side long suite supposdly illustrates the details of the cracked narrative detailed on the insert, but it… Read more »

Spielgusher - Spielgusher ()

Spielgusher “Spielgusher” 2LP Edition of 500. Cover By Raymond Pettibon $25 Spielgusher represents the meeting of two of America’s great artists, Richard Meltzer and Mike Watt. There is additional musical accompaniment by guitarist Hirotaka Shimizu and drummer Yuko Araki, but the basic semiotic brunt of this meeting is shouldered by Richard and Mike. A collaboration between the two had been postulated back when the Minutemen still walked the Earth, but that dream was canceled with D. Boon met his tragic fate in December 1985. Still, Meltzer and Watt kept in touch and tried to think of what they might do together. Around 2011 they arrived at solution. Richard had recorded a bunch of material for Mike, and Watt finally decided to… Read more »
