Sleep-Bottoms - Jamaica

Sleep Bottoms - Jamaica ()

7″ edition of 120 Here is what Spencer Grady had to say in Record Collector magazine. We are still trying to figure out what he meant…”Wow, full on mento decapitation funneled into a hypnagogic stadium epic courtesy of David Crosby. Meanwhile, broken by a nasty bout of Antillies fever, Columbus’ crew get homesick and drop some Royal Trux into the sun-soaked frazzle, as Feeding Tube’s Ted Lee and associates introduce Sun Araw to Arawakan. Think Bryan Brown in Bermudas drunkenly mixing metaphors on the beach as the eternal slackness gently cradels the crux of the Carribbean”.

Dashpi 7"

Dashpi - Don’t Give Up the Ship ()

7″ / Fold Out Poster Edition of 500 “Yah, yah, yah, yah. Don’t give up the ship”. These are some seriously weird bedroom reggae jams, made on a dare nearly a decade ago. Pitch-shifted vocals, primitive music and surreal lyrics regarding “the aqua hole” and “the flaming room”. The artist, who prefers to remain anonymous, has made a number of amazing archival recordings since this one was laid to tape in the early part of the century, but none of them are as focused as this one here. Beautiful silk screened art on thick paper, folded in four, full color labels and one of the thickest 7″s you’ve ever held await you.  

ZEBU! Bloody Lips 7"

ZEBU! - Bloody Lips ()

7″ From the eclectic slop-rock gurus ZEBU! comes the new pop sensation Bloody Lips 7″. Vinyl, 45′ speed high quality recorded on 2″ tape. These four rock songs bring the delight of Steve D’Agostino and Ted Lee to the feeding tube stage once again. No filler, No Nonsense, No Digitizing, All Analog Live Mastery. This album is an perfect example of why ZEBU!, eight years in, has really only just begun their mission to craft records that capture what rock and roll truly should be.  

Belltonesuicide - Cartilage Evaporator

Belltonesuicide - Cartilage Evaporator ()

LP Edition of 100 Mike Barrett has been making uncompromisingly bleak noise music in the Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts for over a decade. Until now, his releases have come out in ultra-limited, hand assembled runs. Well, I guess nothing has changed really, except for the CD-Rs and cassettes of the past have been replaced with this beautiful slab of vinyl. Each of the one 100 covers was painted by hand, either by Barrett himself or his associate Chris Blair. The music on this LP is all previously unreleased material recorded in the last few years, with the help of Blair and Brett Robinson. The world of Belltone Suicide is dark and feedback drenched and is sure to appeal convicts,… Read more »

Zebu - Things We Found: Bell & Broken Watch

ZEBU! - Things We Found: Bell & Broken Watch ()

CD Fueled by love sick determination and a fabulously comfortable basement, what started in Ted’s bed with an acoustic guitar and a contact mic turned into an album that was written an recorded in one day. ZEBU! stretches out in a psychedelic Massachusetts time warp of noise, loops and contemplation. What results is a masterpiece of a record that makes Ted giggle with delight. Twelve songs and what nots that are bound to make dance, cry, scream, melt flesh & love again once over. This release finds these Feeding Tube stalwarts”whipping off the kid gloves, lighting them on fire, and huffing the fumes” — Signal To Noise    

Kommissar Hjuler and Mama Baer

Kommissar Hjuler and Mama Baer - Amerikanische Poesie und Alkoholismus ()

180 Gram LP Edition of 500 Officer Hjuler of the Flensburg police, and his wife Frau Baer are two of contempo sound poetry’s most prolific propagandists. They have released a huge pile of artist records on their own label, and have also had releases on Ultra Eczema, Blossoming Noise, Blackest Rainbow, Gold Soundz and elsewhere. This is their first American LP, and pairs an earsplitting lecture on sound poetry on the A side and a paean to the state of American Alcoholism. One of the most amazing and consistent releases in their discography, this is a splendid place for anyone to dip their toes into the pair’s idea of sonic construction. An incredible document. “Amerikanische Poesie… is the duo at… Read more »

M2 - At Land's Edge

M2 - At Land’s Edge ( / )

LP Edition of 300 BANDCAMP! M2 is an East Coast-based duo comprised of two of the legendary Miller brothers, namely Roger and Ben. They have previously appeared together in such bizarrely protean ensembles as Sproton Layer and Destroy All Monsters, but they are probably best known for their work in autonomous formulations. Ben, most recently with the Glenn Branca Ensemble, Roger with Mission of Burma (and all who sail with them). The music on M2’s debut LP, however, is far from any of the rock-related moves with which they’ve associated in the past. Both have serious bonafides in experimental/improvised sound, of course, but these take a new leap with At Land’s Edge. Roger is playing heavily prepared piano – something… Read more »

Body/Gate/Head - Glaring Luring Yo - OUT OF PRINT

Body/Gate/Head - Glare Luring Yo ( / )

Body/Gate/Head  “Glare Luring Yo” LP Edition of 300 OUT OF PRINT! BANDCAMP! In the spring of 2011, Michael “Powderfinger” Morley was in the U.S. for a short visit. There had been some talk of doing a Gate show or two, but when he visited Western Mass, we decided to put use to his collaborative talents. He played one night at the Yod space in Florence with Kim Gordon and Bill Nace, then at Feeding Tube with Spencer Yeh and Meg Clixby. Both sets provided jumbo pleasure, and Michael managed to record the Yod set for our presentation to you. Kim and Bill were at the beginning of their duo explorations at this point. Can’t even remember if they’d started using… Read more »

Orchid Spangiafora - Flee Pasts Ape Elf - OUT OF PRINT

Orchid Spangiafora - Flee Past’s Ape Elf ()

Edition of 700 with 2nd record of material not on original 1979 release. OUT OF PRINT! Splendid, expanded reissue of this monster album, which most people know from its placement on the NWW List. Stapleton even went so far as to name a track (“Fashioned to a Device Behind a Tree”) after a mis-hearing of one of Flee Past’s’ many memorable lines. The music has its roots in Hampshire College’s Electronic Music Studio in the early 1970s. While taking a class on Electronic Composition, Robert Carey was smitten by the potentialities lurking inside piles of reel-to-reel tape. Presented with a stack of such stuff, mostly recorded off of television, he began an epic stumble into the universe of musique concret…. Read more »
