Grape Room Cartoon Land

Grape Room - Cartoon Land ()

Grape Room “Cartoon Land” LP with insert / download slip Edition of 350 YOGURT MAID MUSIC VIDEO by Sadie Holiday $16 Alright…Grape Room is a trio made up of Peter Nichols, Jo Miller-Gamble and Danny Bissette. This means it’s related to Great Valley and Peter’s Window, as well as a web of other screwball Brat-pop generators that only a goddamn tree farmer can actually unravel. Like some of these other projects, Grape Room uses pop gesturing to create curiously operatic narratives. This one involving a cabal of sad cartoon bears. What makes them so sad? Long winters, lack of honey and the inability to tell time. How this is crafted into a compelling story is difficult to explain, but much… Read more »

Sore Eros - Say People ( / )

Sore Eros “Say People” VHS/LP Edition of 100 Say People Trailer After the populist pop masterpiece that was the Connecticut River LP, Robert Robinson decided it was time to don the Sore Eros cloak once more and act difficult. Not really, but it is certainly possible to imagine something akin to that process going on in the quartet’s collective bean. Say People, is really a collective effort, put together in futs and starts over the past decade. The whole band (Adam Langellotti, Matt Jugenheimer and Jeff Morkeski, in addition to Robinson) asked various friends to send them film or video clips. A bunch of them actually came through (including folks like Gary War, Ted Lee, Justin Pizzoferrato, Sam Gas Can among… Read more »

Alvaro - Drinkin My Own Sperm ()

LP with Booklet by Brian Turner (of WFMU) and Byron Coley Edition of 800 Licensed from SQUEAKY SHOES RECORDS, GERMANY Digitized & Restoration by Jeremy Pisani Vulcher Eddie Flowers Review  BLACK VINYL! BLUE MARBLE VINYL! Beautiful reissue of the 1977 debut solo LP by Alvaro — the Chilean with the Singing Nose. Alvaro Pena-Rojas was an advertising exec who ended up living in a squat in London when he chucked his professional career to fulfill his dream of being a musician. Rooming with he-who-would-become Joe Strummer, Alvaro was a founding member of the squat’s pub-rock band, The 101’ers. After the Pistols opened for The 101’ers at the Nashville Rooms, Strummer felt like he was destined to become a punk, and founded the… Read more »

Bunwinkies - Map of our New Constellations

Bunwinkies - Map Of Our New Constellations ()

LP Edition of 500 $18 BANDCAMP! Beautiful first LP by these Western Mass maestros of the mystery-volk gesture. Named after some well-bred rabbits of Martha Burr Banks’ invention, related by birth to Jow Jow Feath Knell Rung, many of the questions here are posed by Beverly Ketch’s plaintive vocals, all of them edged with a wide-eyed wonder I suspect was a ruse if I didn’t know her. There is a bit of the campfire to the material’s construction, but there’s none of the cutsey-pie crap that might seem to infer. Some of the bits ring like a full-fledged folk-rock oyster. Indeed, the vibe is not dissimilar to the work of The Barbara & Teri Manning, and the organ backpine that… Read more »

Edith Bunker's Demonized Vomit Insurance - Volume Two - Feeding Tube Records - Vinyl

Edith Bunker's Demonized Vomit Insurance - Volume Two ()

LP Edition of 100 / numbered Second vinyl volume of Brent Field’s bizzaro world “musical” inventions. Along with Lisa Suckdog and GG Allin, these are the sounds that made New Hamsphire famous. Stuck in the bedroom of his rural log cabin, Brent creates hardcore loner music for dispossessed souls. The first side of this LP is more musical than some may expect. There’s lots of detuned string rompage to accompany the sound of the words Mr. Field’s head emits with such gusto. It’s almost like someone stuck a little hole in the balloon of his soul, and this stuff just came whizzing out. There are tributes to John Lennon, Beck Hansen (don’t tell him), Root Boy Slim, Bongo Joe and… Read more »

AWOTT

Asian Women on the Telephone - You Have Reached Your Destination ()

Asian Women On The Telephone (AWOTT) “You Have Reach Your Destination” LP with download slip Edition of 350 BLACK VINYL!   VASELINE COLOR VINYL! Feeding Tube’s second LP by Moscow’s AWOTT is another wonderfully perplexing roll in mounds of candy straw. As with their first FT LP, Ivan, there are many sounds here to put one in mind of early ’80s experimental “rock” bands from the German scene. No one would be shocked to learn this was a lost Zick Zack or Pure Freude release. But it ain’t. AWOTT are near the vanguard of some very happening sounds eminating from the Russian sub-underground. Random sonic factors this time include blaring Contortions-oid sax/bass skronk-lock, unexpected blurts of glitch, air raid panic,… Read more »

Chris Weisman Volume 5 Maya Properties

Chris Weisman - Maya Properties (Volume Five) ()

Chris Weisman “Maya Properties (Volume 5)” LP Edition of 220 Original Art by Sarah Smith & Printed Art by Ruth Garbus Vinylization of the digital release by OSR Tapes ! Available on YOUTUBE ! This is the fifth and final vinyl volume of Chris Weisman’s massive Maya Properties project, originally a download of 88 songs, now a gorgeous set of LPs with individually hand-crafted cover art. There are a couple of extra players on this one. Chance McNiff plays sax on “Another Sphinx” and Patricia Hartland plays bass on “Love Will Live On.” But the rest is all Weisman all the time. The mood throughout is classic early folk-rock. There are snootfulls of the Liverpool docks (circa Rubber Soul), Manhattan’s bridges (circa The Sounds… Read more »

Chris Weisman - Maya Properties (Volume Four) ()

Chris Weisman “Maya Properties (Volume 4)” LP Edition of 220 Original Art by RAFTAR & Printed Art by Ruth Garbus Vinylization of the digital release by OSR Tapes ! Available on YOUTUBE ! The fourth vinyl volume of Chris Weisman’s extraordinary Brat-Pop download (88 songs in all) is perhaps the most aggressively eclectic in the batch. A mixed baguette of the most delicious variety. From the raw, raw, raw guitar scuzz of “Mystical Ringo” to the nicely burbling (if somewhat Beck-ian) keyboard chug of “Dear Dandy” (perhaps based on second-hand Gary Wilson form-looting?) to the sickeningly catchy “Irish Stuff,” with its hideously treated leprechuan vocals, Volume 4 touches its figurative lips to many corners of the world’s style map. But, except for the… Read more »

Devin ANd Gary Go Outside

Devin Flynn, Gary Panter - Go Outside ()

Devin And Gary “Go Outside” LP with Download / Insert Edition of 400 First vinyl issue (and an expanded one, yet!) of the taste-tastic 2008 set recorded by Devin Flynn & Gary Panter, just prior to their reconfiguration as a trio with Ross Goldstein (who only guests  hereupon). I will be damned (and I mean truly damned) if I can recall who set this project in motion, but once it was started it rolled like the blimp of eternity it so closely resembles. Gary and Devin had been doing odd, punchy keyboard/guitar juke-a-thoms for a while by then, spinning their way into the bellies of classic ’60s tunes, then clicking their mandibles in sequences they thought of themselves. Their music… Read more »

Glenn Phillips - Lost At Sea ()

Glenn Phillips “Lost At Sea : 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition” 2xLP Edition of 500 (Co-Release with Shagrat & SnowStar Records) OUT OF PRINT! In collaboration with Nigel Cross’ Shagrat label, and Glenn’s own Snow Star concern, Feeding Tube is tickled to release the 40th Anniversary Deliuxe edition of Glenn Phillips’ first album released under his own name, Lost at Sea. Originally issued by Snow Star in ’75, then licensed by Virgin in the UK, after Peel started playing it, LAS has long been a favorite of people of true refinement. Glenn had joined the legendary Hampton Grease Band while still in high school. He played with them their whole six year span, and was a key component of the sound… Read more »
