Joanne Robertson - QuaranTunes Series no.002 ( / )

12″ Lathe Edition of 30. Numbered. Loose leaf (2) cover & back printed on a Riso Printer at Looky Here in Greenfield, MA OUT OF PRINT For our second Quarantunes concert, we were super excited to arrange for the great Jo Robertson to perform from her home in Glasgow. Jo had been taking it easy on her musical stuff for a while, focusing more on painting, and the word was also that she’d been playing a lot of piano. We were a little trepidatious when we asked if she’d be up for doing a solo set with just guitar, but she said, “Okay,” and there was joyful celebrating throughout Feeding Tube Tower. Because of the time difference it was late… 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 »

MV & EE - QuaranTunes Series No.005 ()

Edition of 31. Numbered. Risograph printed loose leaf cover and back art printed at Looky Here in Greenfield, MA. YouTube Video OUT OF PRINT  Recorded and broadcast on Friday May 15, 2020, straight from the shores of Sweet Pond, this album brims with the naked soul of the MVEE experience. The evening was a burbling sonic pipe with tune flowing into tune with some pauses for dedications, child care and a healthy spackling of spectra-banter. Vocals are traded in even measure, and Erika’s lap steel flows through the hoops of Matt’s effects-laden riffs like lava from the ass of god. We’re treated to a blazing version of Space Homestead‘s “Shits Creek,” and it all wraps up with the pure zone… 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 »

Sly & The Family Drone - Walk It Dry ()

LP Edition of 500 Co-Released with Love Love Records OUT OF PRINT London’s kings of noise Sly & The Family Drone follow up their 2019 Love Love LP ‘Gentle Persuaders’ with ‘Walk It Dry’, an 8 track LP collaboratively released by Love Love Records in the UK and Feeding Tube Records across the pond in the USA. Recorded at the end of 2018 after a year long post-car crash recovery hiatus, ‘Walk It Dry’ utilises the familiar sound palette of scronked electronics, bulging noise blasts, wailing sax & Kalashnikov drums that was found on ‘Gentle Persuaders’ but is a very a different beast. The tracks here are shorter and punchier as the band digs deeper than ever to find increasingly potent… Read more »

Banny Grove - Dust World ()

LP Co-Released With Nicey Music $20 Top quality LP comes in unprinted black jacket with a 12×18 wrap-around poster. Very few made. In the 1930s, the Dust Bowl was the most devastating man-made ecological catastrophe in human history. In 2020, Dust World. * * * After pioneering the now thriving form of underground-band-as-character-based-performance-art, and filling 2017–2019 with a staggering number of wigged-up Banny Grove shows in support of a self-released record and a 7” EP, Banny Grove leader Louise Chicoine decided to trade in the costume and the cartoonish-ness that were her signatures in order to break ground on a more profound and lasting body of work. Perhaps not coincidentally, this shift also saw the group relocating from the reputedly… Read more »

Joey Agresta - Let Me To Rock ()

LP Edition of 100. Numbered. Includes Download Code with LP.   Bandcamp $25 I had long ago dismantled my home studio and was only recording songs on my smart phone when Benny Yurco invited me over to his house to make music. Out of the few people who have recorded me over the years no one has understood the way I work better than Benny. He got the gist instantly and before I knew it we were making an album. Everything came easy and it reminded me how much fun making music could be. But by the time I was finishing the vocals Benny had gone on tour, the coronavirus lockdown was beginning, and I was increasingly manic, depressed, and drunk…. Read more »
