Divine Horsemen - Live 1985-1987 ()

CD Edition of 500. $14 Divine Horsemen were a band formed & led by Chris D between the years 1983 and 1988, while he was on hiatus from the Flesh Eaters. Divine Horsemen (taking their name from one of the Flesh Eaters’ most powerful stompers) emerged as a byproduct of Chris’ gorgeous solo album, Time Stands Still. He met singer Julie Christensen a few months before the recording, and the mix of their voices was such a perfect pairing of honey and gravel, they knew they had to keep working together.  Taking a more measured rock tone (as compared to the raging word-zonk of the Flesh Eaters), Divine Horsemen recorded three great LPs and one EP for SST. They were… 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 »

Jesus Vio - Dutch Science ()

CD Edition of 300. Too Much Love Mag Chocoli MV $10 Out this spring on the legendary Western Massachusetts label Feeding Tube, ‘Dutch Science’ dwells on such topics as gripping onto your sanity as you enter true independence and early adulthood, and what it means to make the sacrifices in order to become a working artist in today’s world. Jesus Vio is a working artist who immigrated to the United States after spending much of his childhood bouncing around the world from his native Chile to Berlin, Jesus Vio spent his a chunk of his youth being immersed in vastly different environments.

id m theft able - 2 Autoharps, A Snowmobile, Some Snowplows, A Premature Snowblower ()

CD Edition of 300. $8 On the morning of January 20th 2019 I was woken up especially early at 8am (that’s early for me anyway) by the sound of freezing rain bouncing off my bedroom window.  Rather than trying to go back to sleep I impulsively got up, put on some clothes, brought my two autoharps, a digital recorder, a plastic tote (to protect the recorder from the elements) and an old card table outside, I set the autoharps up on the table so the freezing rain would hit the strings, placed the recorder in the tote next to the autoharps, pressed record, and this is what happened.

Big Blood - Operate Spaceship Earth Properly ( / )

LP Edition of 250 Comes with Download Slip. FIRST PRESSING OUT OF PRINT! Second Pressing in Splatter Color Vinyl   CD Edition of 300 CASSETTE Edition of 100 Silk Screened Cover by Colleen! Our last Big Blood release was the idiosyncratic Ant Farm (FTR 241), Colleen and Caleb’s collaboration with the late composer Elliott Schwartz, which presented music designed for a museum installation. With Operate Spaceship Earth Properly, Big Blood return to the vast universe of strangeness they explore inside their own skin. Now fully incorporating the vocals and guitar of their daughter Quinnisa (previously a “secret weapon” unveiled mostly at live shows, as the Dictators once did with Handsome Dick Manitoba), Big Blood sound nutsier and wilder than ever….

Gary Wilson & Tredici Bacci - Another Lonely Night In Brooklyn ( / )

CD Edition of 500 LP + CD  Edition of 500   Covers Printed by Neil Burke   LP Blue Vinyl Edition available at FT Store / WFMU Record Fair  THE WIRE Totally great live LP by Gary Wilson (the world’s forgotten boy) with a  cover photo makes him look like a dead ringer for the late Mike Kelley, back when Mike was a fake hippie. Anyway, Gary shouldn’t need much of an introduction. If you don’t know him, you might well access one of the many other LPs of his we’ve done. But then again, Another Lonely Night in Brooklyn might be just the place to start your own little wagon rolling down the road of Gary Wilson fandom. The… Read more »

Gregg Turner - Chartbusters! ( / )

LP – Edition of 450 – $16 CD – Edition of 300 – $7 WIRE REVIEW We were first introduced to the music of Gregg Turner when he was with VOM, the explicitly post-musical punk-tongue-monster he inhabited along with Richard Meltzer, Metal Mike Saunders and others. From there, he and Mike formed the Angry Samoans, who spewed an insane blend of garage/bubblepunk/hardcore noise to well-deserved acclaim. But the Samoans began including folk rock moves inside their spectrum with 1986’s Yesterday Started Tomorrow EP, and most of the work Turner’s done since then has contained this element to one degree or another. People who haven’t heard Gregg’s recordings from the post-Samoans era may be surprised by how straightforward and outright charming… Read more »

Home Body - In Real Life

Home Body - In Real Life ( / )

LP / CD Edition of 500 RAM Music Video CD: OUT OF PRINT LP: First LP by superbly talented Northampton MA duo, Haley Morgan and Eric Hnatow, who rewrite the basic DNA of electro-pop for their own nefarious purposes. They are capable of the sweet gesticulation for which the form is noted, and they do this with incredible aplomb. Staying away from the cute-ass rhyming-nada that so many of their peers use as stock-in-trade, when they opt for romantic aktion, they craft tunes that carry the weight of flat-out Buckingham/Knicks updates in terms of sheer perfection — multi-part femme-voiced songs of longing that explode with deep, fully-immersed emotional content, set inside of perfectly balanced guitar/key/percussion explorations. Outside of time or… Read more »
