Big Blood - Dark Country Magic ()

LP Edition of 500. Co-Released with Cardinal Fuzz OUT OF PRINT Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records are delighted to be able to  bring to you the much anticipated vinyl pressing of ‘Dark Country Magic’ from this wonderful Maine trio (Quinnisa making her first intentional effort with Moo Hoo on this release. Caleb Mukerin and Colleen Kinsella have been key personages of the Portland sonic underground as members of the cosmically-shifting Cerberus Shoals and the folkily psychedelic Fire on Fire before forming the more personal and hermetic Big Blood back in 2006. The band’s multi-phasic discography has thus far reminded people of everything from the Comus to Portishead to Julee Cruise at different moments, yet none of these thumbnails comes… Read more »

The Left Outsides - A Place To Hide ()

LP Edition of 497. Co-Released with Cardinal Fuzz. OUT OF PRINT Much needed vinylization of an amazing live set, previously issued as a CDR in an edition of 100 by the fine Borley Rectory label. Finally, for the good of all mankind, the music from this great night, opening for Robyn Hitchcock at London’s Betsey Trotwood in October 2018, is turntable ready. A Place to Hide begins with the album’s one new original tune “My Reflection Once Was Me.” The song brims with harmonium-iced vocals that cannot fail to bring a certain German-born chanteuse to mind. Built over a lovely droning base, and slow, martial pulsing, the song answers a rarely asked question — what might it have sounded like… Read more »

Prana Crafter - MysticMorpho ()

LP Edition of 500. Co-Released With Cardinal Fuzz $21 Prana Crafter is William Sol, a musical mystic who blends the raw energies of nature with guitars, synthesizers, singing bowls, and a dose of flow-consciousness. The resulting sonic nectar flows out from the amplifier, cascading in the mind of the listener, splashing mantras against the listener’s third ear. Some music is meant to entertain, to be consumed like flashing patterns on a TV screen. Not so with the music of Prana Crafter. This music is a sonic-tapestry of energies that are meant to envelop the listener and deliver a message that, as Sol puts it, cannot be known through symbol or through sign. Likened to artists across the psychedelic and folk… Read more »

Matt Sowell - Organize Or Die ()

LP Edition of 250. Download Included. OUT OF PRINT Minneapolis guitarist, Matt Sowell, is another of the many great players we were first introduced to at the Thousand Incarnations of the Rose festival in Takoma Park, MD. Matt played a richly dark and brooding set at Rhizome, with a style deeply indebted to the American Primitive tradition. His set had the raw strength of Fred Gerlach, the precision of Peter Lang, showed a country/blues influence that seemed to reference Fahey, and possessed the raga-meets-ragtime eclecticism of Jack Rose. We were blown away. Later, talking to Matt while we watched Mark Fosson play in the bandshell, we talked about what he’s up to. He’s a family guy, a committed union member,… Read more »

Jon Collin - Water & Rock Music Volumes 3-4 ()

LP Edition of 250. Download slip included. OUT OF PRINT A single LP compiles another two installments in the Water & Rock Music series by Jon Collin, UK ex-pat guitarist currently based in Sweden. Once again, Collin has put together a riveting set of acoustic guitar pieces, these recorded around Stockholm between April and October, 2108. There is a wistful, bluesy quality to the playing and inventions here. John Fahey once told me that blues was “about anger.” But this work seems suffused with delicately scrambling melancholia, like a tangle of vines trying to reach for a breath of sunlight. Sometimes this attempt is rewarded, other times it just turns back on itself for further rumination. Which I guess is… Read more »

lloyd Thayer & Jerome Deupree - Duets ()

LP (comes with download code.) Edition of 200. OUT OF PRINT Mind-blowing set of duo improvisations from a string player once known as the King of the Dobro, and the original drummer for Morphine. Long based in the Boston area, lloyd Thayer is a master musician as well as a teacher, a street performer (retired, I think) and a collector of esoteric stringed instruments (many of which are played with a slide). We were introduced to his work by Glenn Jones, who more or less grabbed us by the collars and hauled us to see him down at the 1000 Incarnations of the Rose festival. Thayer’s set of eastern-tinged material, played on instruments we could not easily name, was absolutely… Read more »

Joseph Allred - Michael ()

LP Edition of 300. Download Included. OUT OF PRINT Michael is the third LP we have done with Boston-based musician, Joseph Allred. The first, O Meadowlark (FTR 451) was a suite for guitar and banjo. For its follow-up, Traveler (FTR 491), Joseph added splendid vocals to the mix. With Michael, Mr. Allred  gives airing to his fine harmonium playing, alongside string majesty and vocals. Maybe on the next one he’ll teach us how to fly. Michael is an album with a dreamy narrative core. Its loose tale deals with the idea of the Archangel Michael appearing during a spirit ritual, performed by the character Faulkner (something like Allred’s alter-ego) in hopes of remembering the contours of heaven. But this concept… Read more »

Wednesday Knudsen & Willie Lane - Long Time ‘Til Tomorrow ()

LP Edition of 500 – Drowned Lands Series (DL1) OUT OF PRINT First issue in the Drowned Lands series, assembled by Jason Meagher, is the debut duo recording by Wednesday Knudsen and Willie Lane. Long Time ‘Til Tomorrow is a gorgeous instrumental collaboration by guitarist Lane and multi-instrumentalist Knudsen that will knock your Smartwool socks off. Recorded at Meagher’s Black Dirt Studio, the album documents the first time the pair played together. They are, of course, well known to Feeding Tube fans. Willie’s first three Cord Art LPs have been reissued over the last two years (FTR 413, 437, 438) and Wednesday’s two albums with Weeping Bong Band (FTR 313, 448) have slain stoned listeners across the globe. Wednesday is… Read more »

Mordecai - Library Music ()

LP Edition of 200. Includes download code.  also available digitally on Bandcamp Out Of Print.  Remaining copies at Forced Exposure  Feeding Tube was chuffed to take Professor Steve Hesske’s advice and make way for the fifth vinyl LP by Mordecai. I mean, when the Professor speaks even the cows take notice. And we are all descended from cows, right? So why not? Originally based around Butte Montana, formed by two brothers who claim to have been born (or conceived) (or some damn thing) on crappy Dead tours (’89 and ’92, meaning the ones that resulted in Without a Net and “Althea” from 30 Trips Around the Sun), Mordecai took an unlikely backstory and spun it into solid gold dirt. The tunes on Library… Read more »

Two Much - The Abstract Horse ()

LP with Download code. Edition of 200. Art by Allison Tanenhaus $21 An incredible, primitive and ecstatic teenage garage rock explosion from the suburbs of 1968 Orlando, Florida. With an instrumental line-up consisting of just guitar and drums, this is a version of rock & roll as raw and naked as only a duo can manage. Think Half Japanese, the Work Dogs, the Bassholes and so on — Two Much are cut from the same wicked cloth. I remember a cassette of some of this material circulating around sub-underground Boston back in the 1980s. Might have been around the time Robin Amos’s post-Girls band, Shut Up (with Glenn Jones), was finishing up their run. Robin was a well-known player on… Read more »
