Eleanora - Lamentations of An Bhean Sí ()

LP Edition of 250. Release Date – October 30th, 2026 – Preorder available – $27 Lamentations of An Bhean Si is the vinylization of the debut album, first issued last year as a cassette, by the Oakland-based harpist Eleanor Denison. Denison trained as a classical harpist, before dropping out to play more informally and pursue an agrarian lifestyle near where the White River joins the Connecticut River Valley in central Vermont. She returned to the Boston area in 2023, at which point she began developing a new avant-pop approach to her instrument. Using a loop pedal and a delay pedal, her playing mixed composed bits with pure improvisation. Denison played regular live shows, on bills with artists from across the… Read more »

Dead Sea Apes - Psychic Tension ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) $24 DEAD SEA APES are back with a fierce new album – PSYCHIC TENSION – an urgent soundtrack for the nerve-shredding times we live in. Our collective psyche is under attack, reeling from the chaos of a modern world under siege: from war, death, destruction and climate catastrophe to political decay, media manipulation, growing inequality and the rank depravity of the so-called elite. Do we overload ourselves with anxiety, vent our frustration at others, make token gestures to ease our conscience, or just try to carry on regardless? Dead Sea Apes have wrestled these dilemmas – this Psychic Tension – into sonic/musical form, creating catharsis from the chaos.  Psychic Tension picks up where previous… Read more »

Jake Blanchard - Divination ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) $24 Cardinal Fuzz And Feeding Tube records are proud to bring to you ‘Divination’, a medical diary turned psychedelic séance whereJake Blanchard summons the shahi baaja from somewhere beneath the skin. Jake is perhaps best known for his remarkable visual work, having created sleeves and artwork for artists including Pelt, Mike Gangloff and Richard Dawson, with his artwork for Dawson’s The Ruby Cord receiving third place in the 2022 Art Vinyl album-cover awards. Jake Blanchard plays the electric shahi baaja,  that beautiful beast of an instrument sitting somewhere between the Indian bulbul tarang, the Japanese taishōgoto and an electrical nervous system caught in a thunderstorm. Under normal circumstances it already sounds like an object… Read more »

Ned Collette - Mixed Light ()

LP Co-Release with It Records (Australia) $29 We first became aware of this great Australian-born rover when he had finished recording his 2018 progressive folk masterpiece, Old Chestnut (FTR362 ). Ned followed this up with 2019’s surprising, fantastic instrumental trio LP, Afternoon-Dusk (FTR468). Then in 2022 we vinylized his great solo debut, Jokes & Trials (FTR630) and did a lathe of his excellent appearance on our covid-era Quarantunes series (FTR657). 2024 saw the release of Our Other History which was a lovely assemblage of material recorded in a variety of formats. Now it’s 2026 and we have a new slab on Ned called Mixed Light. And it’s a beaut. Like Our Other History, this new one is more of a… Read more »

Loren Connors / Michael Vallera / Elliott Sharp - When The Moon Is New ()

LP Edition of 424. $26 There are fewer great guitar trio records than you’d suspect. Guitar duo sessions are far more abundant, and these three players have all done their share of those. But the dynamics of a trio are more fickle. And when creating collaborative non-hierarchical music, maintaining a balance between three distinct voices is not easy. It requires rapt attention, a fearless approach to entering the unknown, and very good ears to do it successfully. Clearly, Connors, Vallera and Sharp display mastery of all of these conditions and then some. Recorded live at P.I.T. (Property Is Theft) in Brooklyn, When  the Moon Is New documents the first meeting for the trio. Loren and Elliott, two of the best… Read more »

Drew Gardner - Rabbit Ears ()

LP Co-Release with Eiderdown Records $25  “Fifth solo outing by one of the founding guitarists of Elkhorn, who has also been an essential part of Jeffery Alexander’s Heavy Lidders. Gardner is the master of several distinct styles. He can grab the ring of psych-eternity with rare surety. He has versatile outward-spiraling jazz chops. And I’ve even caught him playing a sort of avant doom metal like he was born Norwegian. I’ll admit I haven’t heard his last two albums (no promos I guess), but I’ll bet they’re pretty cool, since Rabbit Ears is a solid gas. The band this time is a quartet. Bassist Andy Cush and drummer Ryan Jewell are still present, with the new addition being guitarist Tom… Read more »

White Gourd - (To Walk in) Justice (Calls for) Strength ()

LP Edition of 250. $26 White Gourd is the soubriquet Suzanne Stone uses for her long-running solo project. Her recordings as White Gourd are distinct from her work in Million Brazilians, the mothership for the Psychic Sounds Collective, who (along with Big Blood, Id M Theft Able & others) have worked tirelessly to keep the Strange Maine banner flapping in the cold northern wind. White Gourd’s music uses voice, saxophone, percussion & doo-dads galore to create song-like fields of sound possessing the semiotic weight of rituals celebrating an unknown tongue. There are certain resonances with artists like Fursaxa and Spires That in the Sunset Rise, but as with most Psychic Sounds related music, everything is bathed in a weird light… Read more »

Ayami Suzuki & Rob Noyes - Classic Fevers and Chills ()

LP Edition of 500. $25  Glorious vinylization of this 2022 duo session, originally issued as a cassette, documenting the first time Suzuki and Noyes ever collaborated. Ayami Suzuki has become known to cognoscenti for her brilliantly imagined vocal improvisations, through recordings with like-minded folks such as French vocalist/polymath Delphine Dora and avant hurdy gurdy player, TOMO. Rob Noyes has developed a parallel reputation as a master third-generation acoustic guitarist in the post-Takoma tradition. Originally based in the U.S. he wisely relocated to Tokyo several years ago. Which is where this meeting took place, And while I initially assumed the music had been composed to some degree. Rob assured me that was not true, He says, “I think the recording can… Read more »

Spiral Galaxy - II ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) $22   Mixed Colour Vinyl Chicago cosmic explorers Spiral Galaxy return with Spiral Galaxy II, an ecstatic, deep-space voyage of pulsating drift by flutist Sara Gossett and Plastic Crimewave on guitar/keys/machines. Expanding on the terrain mapped out by their acclaimed 2020 debut, the duo push further into a world where flute, raagini, guitar, drone, and an old school drum machine merge into long-form galactic excursions that feel both meticulously crafted and gloriously untethered. SG II was aided by the guiding hand of Windy City weirdo-visionary Bobby Conn, who contributed textural treatments and overdubs, vintage percussive devices, and spoken-word passages that all deepen the album’s ritualistic atmosphere, placing Spiral Galaxy somewhere between kosmische music, astral folk,… Read more »

Pirámides - El Bienestar del Espíritu ()

LP Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz (UK) $22 Mixed Colour Vinyl with full size insert. The defining feature of El Bienestar del Espíritu is its sense of movement. While Pirámides have long explored psychedelic and experimental territory, this new album places rhythm firmly at the center of the experience. Bass and drums drive much of the record, creating hypnotic, trance-inducing foundations that pull the rest of the music into orbit over which voices and atmospheric textures gradually unfold. El Bienestar del Espíritu is the latest transmission from Monterrey (via Tucson) Pirámides. Pirámides have never been easy to categorize. Built around the songwriting of Patricio Coronado and shaped by a philosophy closer to musical collage than traditional rock orthodoxy, the band’s music… Read more »
