Started in 2003 by Ted Lee when he was a student, Feeding Tube Records is now both
a record store and label nestled in the middle of the Pioneer Valley in Florence,
Western Mass. Thurston Moore and Byron Coley came into the picture when the two
noticed Ted equipped with a video camera taping all the performances at The Yod
Space, Moore and Coley’s venue/half-formed record store. Soon enough, they joined
Ted around 2010 when the three all realized they wanted a retail space to sell
records and later, Thurston and Byron became more involved with the label side of
things. Thurston soon went off to the UK while Ted and Byron carried on, operating
the label in this capacity ever since.
Feeding Tube claims to release “limited edition vinyl documents of artists operating
on the fringe of obscurity”, and it’s hard to argue that they’ve done anything but
that. With a penchant for bolstering the sound of the Pioneer Valley and the New
England underground, no one sound defines the label. They continually unearth cult
recordings, like those from Mars, Gary Wilson, Jack Ruby, or Chilean compose Alvaro,
and they’ve worked with just about anyone who maps out on the "free" spectrum
: Chris Corsano, Bruce Russell, Michael Zerang, etc. They also continue to be a
springboard for budding artists, like Guerilla Toss, Palberta, or Daniel Bachman.
Byron recently mentioned that the label tries to maintain a schedule of “releasing
an LP a week,” and they’ve somehow exceeded that. They’ve released over 650 records
(according to Discogs) and have worked with over 300 artists since their inception.
That puts them at an average of 40+ releases a year, representing close to 20 artists
a year, although their release rate really revved up around 2013. And 2018 has been
a particularly fruitful year for the label. The yearly count ends up clocking in at
64 full-length releases, excluding the “just over 100” edition releases, cassettes,
lathes, represses, and CDRs. Feeding Tube struck while the iron was hot, as they’ve
always done. If you were listening, 2018 was a standout year for the label.

LP Negative Glam NG #4 2014 US
"Back when Thurston and I were working on our book about the New York No Wave scene,
a key mystery we hoped to unravel was the one surrounding the band Jack Ruby. I knew
George Scott had been in the band, along with Chris Gray, but we were never able to
nail down any hard info. Lydia Lunch and Rudolph Grey both had blazing memories of
their weirdness, originality and power, but no one could turn up anything solid.
Time passed, the book came out and -- chuffed by the fact we'd name-checked the
band in the book -- some of the participants began to emerge. Weasel Walter got
his hands on a great tape of material which he released on CD (most of which is
reprised here), and bits and pieces of the band's story continued to roll out.
They'd actually formed in 1973 with Boris Policeband on electric viola and Randy
Cohen on Serge synthesizer. The two pretty much constant members were guitarist Gray
and singer Robin Hall. They'd done a demo for Epic. The original band never played
live, etc., kind of crazy. Then a batch of old tapes was found in Pennsylvania.
We sent them to Don Fleming who transferred and catalogued them for us, and we were
totally blown away by what he was uncovering. 'Hit and Run' and 'Mayonnaise' are
the original line-up recorded in a small Times Square Studio. Boris left after that
and they recorded the Epic session as a trio. That's 'Bored Stiff,' 'Bad Teeth,'
and 'Sleep Cure.' The other songs were recorded by the later, performing version
of the band with Chris and George and another (all but anonymous) person or two.
They played five live shows, ft. crawling dolls, buzzing dildos and the
cracked Rocket From The Tombs sort of sound they'd evolved. The last one was in
November '77 at Max's with Vivienne Dick's then-boyfriend, Stephen Barth on vocals.
And the shit may be lo-fi at times, but it is genuinely fucked and a real pleasure
to hear nonetheless."

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 (FTR 129LP, 2013), 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 Zickzack or Pure Freude
release. But it ain't. AWOTT are near the vanguard of some very happening sounds
emanating from the Russian sub-underground.

Gary Wilson's monumental 1977 LP reissued with a glamorously shiny foil cover bearing
the original cover art (care of Owen Maercks's well-loved copy), delicately laid out
by Scott Allison. Which makes it, perhaps, the last copy you'll ever need. You Think
You Really Know Me (also the title of Michael Wolk's 2005 documentary about Wilson)
was Wilson's second LP, but the first he recorded as a vocalist, hewing to his own
bizarre vision -- a syncretic collision of romance, new wave cocktail jazz, heartbreak,
disco porn-soundtrack music, and experimental tape manipulation. Home-recorded in
Endicott, NY, the album found a few fans when released, but subsequently became the
exclusive purview of record collectors and the women who tolerate them.
Beck namechecked Wilson in 1996, which made a few new people scratch their heads.
And the album was reissued in 2002. Rediscovery followed, and records, the documentary,
and some odd live shows. Most of Wilson's moves are stamped with his unique aesthetic,
and are also documented on other three recommended Feeding Tube LPs -- Lisa Wants to
Talk to You (FTR 081LP), Forgotten Lovers (FTR 065LP), and Music for Piano (FTR 192LP).
But as bodacious as these three albums are, the real root of Wilson's muse is most
obvious on You Think You Really Know Me. It is the sound of a 23-year old oddball
from upstate New York wrestling with his demons and actually winning. There's nothing
quite like it. And it offers a story of hope to every weirdo who hears it. Hallelujah!

Belgian guitarist Bram Devens has been releasing solo recordings under the name
Ignatz. A couple of cassettes have come out in the States, but most of his releases
have been elusive imports. Thus, we have taken it upon ourselves to do a public service
and release a domestic version of an LP that will appear on the (K-RAAK-K) label in
Belgium.

"Split LP by a couple of bands who have more tricks up their collective sleeves than
most outfits you could name. Metabolismus are a musical collective from near Stuttgart
Germany, who have been actively corrupting the minds of everyone around them since the
1980s. The number of players on any given session, as well as the style of music that
will be generated, is almost infinitely mutable. About all you can count on is that it
will be intriguingly fried. Mono Pause began as a duo in River Falls, Wisconsin in the
early '90s, before relocating to the Bay Area. They also create ethnic forgeries under
the name Neung Phak, but that's of no matter here. Like their German brethren, Mono
Pause has no fixed line-up or output style. Their records are generally fluxed as hell,
and we're all the better for it. Not sure exactly how this split LP came into being,
but when we heard such a thing existed we agreed to release it faster than your mom
will drop a red-hot potato. Typically, the record sounded nothing like what we
expected. Which is the best kind of surprise. Metabolismus's side begins with deeply
freaked, rotating guitar figures that connect it historically to the German progressive
sub-underground. From there it skates off into Neue Deutsche Welle turf, eventually
loafing around with people-on-the-street-who-talk-with-balloons, and go all over the
park in search of snacks. By the time they start doing a flipped-out Gainsbourg/Bardot
-style cover of 'I Know You Rider' you'll be talking with balloons as well. Mono
Pause's side ranges from German-tongued Egypto-spaghetti-pop readymades to subterranean
secret agent theme songs played on mock-Theremin to blips of pure Residential form
-hunch and beyond. The width of their skitterage is surpassed only by its elegant
weirdness. Parts make me recall a never-released Der Plan record I once heard in
a dream. Hooray!" --Byron Coley, 2018 RTI Vinyl; Edition of 500.

This album includes portions of their debut show, at Florence MA's 13th Floor, in Dec.
2014. Still a duo, they then recorded the eight tracks that comprise the Get In Line
With Mental Decline EP in February 2015 at Dead Air Studios. The demo version of
Confront Ya/Dickies was recorded in March 2016. The live NY show from January 2016 was
recorded at Betaville, and features special guest drummer Denny McDermott. The last bit
is from Greenfield's John Doe Jr., recorded in March 2016. And there's no way a mere
recording can convey the very special brand of chaos these menches conjure up. But if
close your eyes and crank this up, you'll get close enough for jazz. Ed of 413.

Boston's Phil Milstein is a master of this art. His projects recontextualizing 'found'
material are as inventive and original as anything you'll run across. Another maestro
of the form is Maine's Skot Spear (aka id m theft able). We already vinylized one of
the projects he uncovered, The Weeny Man LP (FTR 037LP, 2013). And now it's time for
another. Originally released by Skot in 2002 as a CDR on his own Maang-Disc label,
EEEE EEEEE documents a cassette he found in the basement of a friend's house late in
the last century. Ed of 300 copies.

B1 U-Boat Flu / Abandon Ship!
B2 The Things I've Thrown Away
"Recorded in fits and starts, while the artists worked on their moontans amidst
strong waters, the sole release by Dead Girl's Party was originally issued on
cassette by the Entr'acte label. Since that tape now goes for a ben-and-a-half,
we realized it was time to make a vinyl document of these young jazz immortals.
Scott "Pfennig" Foust (XX Committee, IFCO, Tart and the founding philosopher of the
Anti-Natural movement) and Matt "Ha'Penny" Krefting (Son of Earth, Believers, Duck,
MK Unit, etc.) decided to do this stuff because they were hanging out a bunch, and
2009 seemed like a "down" year to them. What better to inflate its core than a totally
-inscrutable duo, dedicated to creating noise-pop with no clear precedent? The three
tracks on the first side run from the Francis Bebey-like 'The First Pill,' through
I'm a Tick Tock Bomb' (basically a distillation of every good move the Fall made
in the '90s), onto the Apocalypse-as-a-carnival-midway-game of 'Spin the Wheel!
It's what I sort of thought the Sleaford Mods might sound like when I first heard
about them (boy, was that a disappointment). Just a weird, sometimes wordy collection
of electronics and mood and barely suppressed outrage. The two tracks on the flip are
sort of a post-Apocalypse song suite about pirates in a submarine who have to get
rid of a lot of ballast, although they know they're gonna die anyway. And wasn't lif
grand? To which we say, yeah! Impossible to categorize or to get off the stereo,
The Things I've Lost is a monster for the ages.

Thirteen tracks of skink-voiced post-core burl from the sloppiest pits of Boston's
Fuck-Curtis scene. Angela Sawyer handles vocals as though she's imagining herself as
a squirrel in the grips of a cartoon bear. Bugs & Rats's brilliant guitarist, Shawnie
Brando, pulls lightning repeat-o riffs out of his pocket. Bassist Sam Potrykus and
drummer Nick Neuburg set their dials to pummel, and motor away. The lyrics (as printed
on an enclosed sheet) are like an insane parody of hardcore, and the music eventually
achieves a kind of rumble that is very difficult to ignore.

And Eighteen High..." 3:55
Reissue of an exceptional album of improvisations, recorded when percussionist
Charles K. Noyes was lured to the Bay Area in the summer of 1979 by Henry Kaiser.
Noyes and Maercks had played regularly as a duo when Owen was still based in Worcester,
MA. But he'd shifted his ass westward in the wake of the Teenage Sex Therapist session
(FTR 153-2LP), which had been organized by Kaiser following their collaborations in
the band, Monster Island. Half of the album was recorded live at Woody Woodman's Finger
Palace, with Kaiser on guitar and Greg Goodman on piano. The web of cluttered notes and
interwoven melodic lines they created that night was incredible. And the duo studio
session a few days later was massive as well. Free Mammals has long been a notoriously
scarce document in the history of the West Coast's free music scene of the late '70s.
And the album (nominally released on Owen's Visible label, although everything was
handled by Charles) almost always sounded as though it had been pressed onto concrete.
With the help of Jeremy Pisani and Carl Saff, we have attempted to present this
extraordinary music with the best sonics possible. And it sounds mighty dandy. There
is also a liner note insert, as well as full size repros of two fliers from both the
show at which this was partially recorded, and also a subsequent trio set with Noyes
/Kaiser/Goodman. They will look fine on your wall, should to choose to thus deface
them. Regardless. Count your lucky stars and dive in. All of your dreams are about to
come true." --Byron Coley, 2018 Edition of 500.

"Spielgusher represents the meeting of two of America's great artists, Richard Meltzer
and Mike Watt. There is additional musical accompaniment by guitarist Hirotaka Shimizu
and drummer Yuko Araki, but the basic semiotic brunt of this meeting is shouldered by
Richard and Mike. A collaboration between the two had been postulated back when the
Minutemen still walked the Earth, but that dream was canceled with D Boon met his
tragic fate in December 1985. Still, Meltzer and Watt kept in touch and tried to think
of what they might do together. Around 2011 they arrived at solution. Richard had
recorded a bunch of material for Mike, and Watt finally decided to go into the studio
with a couple of his Japanese musician pals to cut a long set of jams and splats to go
along with the words. Mike put the finished session, also called Spielgusher, out as
a CD on his own clenchedwrench label, but we never really felt a though that release
got into the hands or ears or brains of the many folks who'd dig hearing it.
Consequently, here is a 2LP reprise of the set, with lovely new cover art, provided
by Raymond Pettibon (another long-time Meltzer fan, and one who actually witnessed
the debut performance of VOM at Kahuna's Bearded Clam, back when we were all a lot
younger). Meltzer's words range from hilarious to shocking, and anyone who has
attended one of his readings will agree that his performance is fully on point here.
The musical inventions the trio tosses up to meet his words are fantastic - abstract
or pointed at various times, melodic or noisome as befits the mood, but all with the
compact econo lines that are Watt's stock-in-trade. There are perhaps some out there
for whom Meltzer's poems will prove to be stronger word-meat than they are used to,
but most of us are surely made of stronger stuff. And this album will be welcome manna
to ear-teeth everywhere. Chew slowly and see."

"The debut LP by Maine's Video Nasties is actually a compilation of the first four
cassette singles/EPs they've released over the past three years. The band exists as
a part-time project involving several key members of the Strange Maine scene. And when
you listen to it, you'll be less-than-surprised to learn that some of the Nasties are
also involved with Portland's totally whacked Suicide tribute band, AM Frank. The music
on the album, however, is a generation removed from Suicide's protean aggro synth
grunge. Ed. of 300 copies + insert.

"Hard to believe it has been 18 years since this set was first issued, but that's what
the calendar says. Paul and Chris had been playing together for a while before this.
I seem to recall rehearsals outdoors in Hartford beneath stretches of raised highway
under construction. But that may have been Chris and Pete Nolan, back when Pete played
guitar. Who can remember exactly? It's been a long time. But I do remember we put this
set together because it seemed essential to document how amazing the communication was
between these two musicians, from different generations, but tuned into the same insane
frequency. When we told Paul we wanted to do it on the Ecstatic Yod label, with art by
Gary Panter, and actual liner notes, he thought it wasn't the best idea he'd ever
heard, but what the hell. The actual hope of the label was to raise the profile of
this incredibly talented but ruinously humble saxophonist, so that he'd be thought of
in the same way as the day's other great players. And hey -- it sorta worked. The CD
got solid reviews, and more people heard it. But what most listeners took away from it
was how intensely telepathic the music is. It's all lightning and smoke. These guys
were deep inside each other's heads, and that made for a wonderful listening
experience. In a way it's funny to hear how 'jazzy' Chris's playing is. He's gone so
far beyond known-moves over the last years, you almost suspect he must be holding back.
But he's not. He's throwing down as hard as he can to meet the ragged flowing genius
of Flaherty's horn at every turn. He just had different chops back then. And the music
is still amazing. The Hated Music is one of the best extended drum/sax forays you'll
ever hear. If we could have done it on vinyl back then, we would have, but no one was
buying the stuff much right then. Jerks. That has changed a bit now. For the good. And
we got the great Gary Panter to do new cover, since the old one was CD sized and weird.
But everything else is the same. And it totally rips a hole in the universe. Now and
forever. Amen."

"Finally, what the world has been eagerly anticipating for the last four decades -- an
LP by EMPOOL! Empool was a whacked-out, Detroit-based prog-noise combo (usually a trio
or quartet), that would eventually merge into the rock-band-era Destroy All Monsters.
Guitarist Laurence Miller was a constant throughout. Organist Andre Cynkin was
generally on hand as well. Laurence's brothers, Ben and Roger, showed up now and then,
as did pianist Rick Scott. Empool only played three live shows, but they recorded
everything, and their use of pre-recorded tapes as a live sound source may have
informed Roger's decision to do the same when he formed Mission of Burma. The tracks
on this album were recorded between December 1976 and September 1977, and they're
pretty amazing. Structurally, the stuff is far away from No Wave, but it has a lot
of the same rough structural textures and jumbled sonics, although there's also crazy
tape noise (some of it resembling gushing synth sequencing) and stun guitar stirred
into the mix. The fact that it's mostly instrumental gives things a certain prog
/experimental thrust that feels a bit parallel to the bands on the Random Radar label,
but it runs wildly against the grain of anything else you'd hear in that era. With an
insert containing Laurence's memories of the project, and album art guaranteed to lull
prog heads into submission, Empool's DOES do did done is a magnificent head scratcher.
Can be filed neatly between Sproton Layer and Destroy All Monsters."

"Recorded on a trip to the East Coast in August 1979, this album documents Gary
Wilson's semi-triumphant return to his home base. Raised in Endicott NY, Gary moved
out to San Diego after recording a series of records that would eventually create his
legend. In August 1979, You Think... was the primary record for which Gary was known,
and about half the material here is drawn from that masterpiece. The rest of the songs
are in a similar mode -- prog-damaged lounge music powered by deep obsessions and
ass-wide hooks, presented amidst truly bizarre stage elements. What's extra weird
about this set is how rockin' the Blind Dates make the stuff sound. The band, although
San Diego-based, was actually a bunch of NY State-expats Gary had played with before,
whose westward drift has proceeded his own. And CBGB was one of the few clubs at which
Wilson's music had been welcome from '77 on, so it really was a homecoming. Recorded
through the board, the sonics are great, the music is mesmerizing . . . At the end of
side two, someone intones, 'Blind Dates rule.' And if you don't agree by that point,
you are a goddamn square. Be gone." --Byron Coley, 2017

Third record, following a pair of amazing 12" near-LPs, by this Columbus howitzer.
On their debut, Flash Fuck (A Wicked Company, 2013), they were a trio, but they
subsequently dropped a guitarist. By the time they cut Vernacular Splatter
(Superdreamer, 2015), they has found their true shape as a duo. With Aurelie on
drums and vox, and Chris Corbin on guitar, they had pared their shit down to a
tight-packed near-perfect two-person howl. For Possession Sessions they have
retained that format, although legendary producer Mike Rep can't keep from making
his guitar a deep deep part of the mix. Edition of 300.

"Fantastic debut LP by a Manchester trio who stand at the vanguard of Britain's new
new thing. Playing this record, we recall the raw excitement we felt a quarter century
ago when bands like Skullflower, A Band, R!!!S!!!, and the Shadow Ring were reinventing
the shape of the UK sub-underground. Silver Dick is made up of guitarists Kate Armitage
and Martin Greenwood, and drummer Joincey. They've all been involved in other projects
(from Inca Eyeball to Desmadrados Soldados De Ventura), but there's a very special
jumble to the sound they've found with Silver Dick. Like Mosquitoes, they have a way
of shaping basic rock instrumentation to create something extraordinary and strange,
really only comparable (in our limited experience) to the early work of the legendary
New York band, Mars. The guitars wind outwards in sprawls that suggest melodies rather
than outlining them. Kate's vocals have a hypnotized feel, as though they were being
done by one of the actresses in Herzog's Heart of Glass (1976). And the percussion
manages to sound clatterous while still maintaining the ability to keep things moving
forward in a jagged line. The results are a delirious mix, full of secret information,
and highlighted by the use of anonymous 'small instruments' of all sorts. If this is
the beginning of a revolution, then bring it the fuck on." Edition of 300.

"The Chicago-based string genius Joshua Abrams first talked to us about the idea
of this album a while back. It took a couple of years to get together, but in a way,
it's cool that it's being released in 2018 -- the 50th anniversary of the recording
of the first free bass solo LP, Barre Phillips' Journal Violone. Issued by Opus One
in the U.S., Music Man in the UK (as Unaccompanied Barre), and Futura in France
(as Basse Barre), Phillips' groundbreaking album was a gorgeous and gritty
exploration of textures that are usually bound deep inside the creative flow of unit
improvisation. Hearing these sonorities explored, at length, without extraneous
gabble was revelatory, but not easy to replicate. I could only think of a dozen other
LPs of the stuff that have been done in the intervening years (CDs don't count)*.
But Abrams is undaunted by such shit. Anyone who has seen him play or listened to
him on record knows he has an aggressively wide palette and a fearless drive to
explore new regions of sound. The tones on Excavations 1 have a much gnarlier feel
than many of the tones Joshua explores inside group dynamics. Almost more like some
of the bassists associated with avant garde composition (Bertram Turetzky, Fernando
Grillo, etc.), Abrams' work here is about pushing against accepted precepts of melody
and rhythm, freeing the bass from its accepted role, and allowing it to scream for
real."

FTR 354 LOS LICHIS & PAKITO BOLINO : SAVAGE LICHIS RELIGION LP 03.2018
[EL ULTIMO GRITO]
A A Side
B B Side
"Unbridled live match-up, recorded in November 2016 in an Oaxacan gallery, pitting
Mexico's most brutal art collective (Los Lichis) against the fractured French brain
behind le Dernier Cri (Pakito Bolino). Many don't realize it, since Pakito's insane
artwork and silkscreened books are so overwhelming, but he's also a guitarist and
singer. We're hoping to reissue some of the musical work he did with his band Mug in
the near future. But that's not what we're talking about here. Savage Lichis Religion
is a wonderful extension of the brilliance they showed on Dog (FTR 229LP, 2016),
blending noise, psych, prog, experimental whatsis and all else into a totally batshit
free-rock stew. This is a classic of vents-burst aesthetic demolition. It would be
easy to sell test pressings as some lost, unreleased piece of the Futura RED series.
It's hard for a mere mortal (who wasn't there) to pick out exactly what it is that
Pakito adds to the chaos. We're assuming it's the gut-pricking guitar feedback that
squeedles up from the depths, but no matter what it is he's doing, all we can say is
KEEP DOING IT. Pakito also did the eye-pleasing cover art and insert for the LP.
Thanks. And hate to end on a bummer, but we'll dedicate this release to the memory of
José Luis Rojas, a long-time member of Los Lichis who died at the end of 2017. Long
may his memory burn." Edition of 300.

Debut album by this Turners Falls-based quartet led by Adam Langellotti of Sore Eros
and widely hailed for his engineering work. The sound on Transient Response is languid
ruralist prog-pop, with help from Gary War, Ma Turner, Shannon & Beverly Ketch, and
other Valley travelers. New Parents can be pretty raw live, but the overall vibe here
is smoother and distinctly out-of-time. Different segments remind me of everything
from Fraser & DeBolt to Brinsley Schwarz to Great Plains and back again.

"Stefan Neville is one of the busier beavers on the North island of New Zealand.
Recording under his own name, as Pumice (or a variety of other soubriquets), running
the Stabbies & the Rockets label, drumming for the Coolies and so on, he keeps his tail
moving quickly so that it does not grow moss. Greg Malcolm is one of New Zealand's
premier avant garde string-benders. He did a bit of band aktion with Jay Clarkson in
Breathing Cage but has mostly hewed to stranger improv-based roads. He plays oddly
crafted guitar-like instruments of all manners and has lots of great solo recordings
as well as various ad hoc unit-spew and a duo record with Eugene Chadbourne. And NOW,
at last, he has Nuance as well. For Nuance, Greg plays strings, tambourine, voice and
'things.' Stefan counters with drums, reed organ, tapes, throat, and synth. The
material ranges from 'Prospectus' (one of Steve Lacy's great '80s compositions) to
Joe Meek's 'Telstar' to 'Hora' and 'Serba' (Jewish wedding music by the Epstein
Brothers) with various unexpected stops in between. Apart from Jenny Ward's second
vocals on Daw Henson's 'I'm Crazy Over You' (an old Kentucky tune, originally recorded
by Alan Lomax in '37), it's just Stefan and Greg here. And they shine in lots of weird
ways. Greg's strings often have lots of overloaded vibrational qualities to the way
they sustain notes ('though they know how to cluck like chickens, as well) and Stefan's
work ranges from stark drumming in the Mississippi style to key drones that extend the
fake bounds of infinity. The breadth of the material they tackle is almost insane, but
they manage to infuse it with their own distinct personality traits, and unusually
friendly experimental tactics. Hard to grasp? Sure. But it's just as hard to stop
playing it. That's what we call real Nuance."

"We were introduced to the music of Ned Collette by guitarist Julia Reidy, another
Melbourne ex-pat currently based in Europe. Julia's word is good as gravy around here,
so we checked out Ned's new work and were blown clean out of our socks. Old Chestnut
is a haunting prog-folk song cycle for the ages. Ned's approach to voice and guitar
resemble various models at various times. You'll hear smatterings of Leonard Cohen,
Lou Reed, Pip Proud in lyrics and phrasing, but these are always just spices, added
to the beautifully melancholic vistas Ned arrays before our ears. On the epic track,
'June,' there is a piano part by Chris Abrahams (of The Necks) so perfect in its
conception it stops time. Working with longtime drum partner, Joe Talia, and a few
other guests, Collette has made a goddamn whale of an album. The songs are brilliant,
the arrangements have an addictively sparse genius, and the production is so full and
delicate it reminds us of folks like Jim O'Rourke, Van Dyke Parks and Roger Waters.
We are strangely unfamiliar with the bulk of Ned's previous recordings, but it doesn't
really feel like it matters that much. With an album as strong as Old Chestnut, his
history restarts here." --Byron Coley

FTR 373 LP DIAL NOISE OPERA LP 08.2018
A Noise Opera Prelude 19:58
B Noise Opera 20:19
"We were first attuned to Dial by Bill Nace back in the early days of this century.
He'd been sent over the moon by the incredible squall of the unit, a trio led by former
UT-guitarist Jacqui Ham. We were so blown away by the re-emergence of Jacqui, we didn't
even try to figure out who the other players were. But it turns out the other two dudes
were Rob Smith, a most immaculate manipulator of drum dials and guitar feedback, and
synth-pillager/bassist Dominic Weeks, who'd been in the most insane Rough Trade band
of all times -- Furious Pig. This was news worth learning! Over the course of four CDs
in 16 years, Dial managed to make a crazy amount of fully-braced guitar skronk, worthy
of anyone you can name, without managing to get any of it onto that most durable of
formats -- vinyl LP. Now. Finally. After more than a dozen years in the digital desert,
Dial are being heard the way they were always meant to be heard. Noise Opera is an
homage to Ornette Coleman's 1961 masterpiece, Free Jazz. The album consists of two
side-long explorations of loud post-form guitar order and suggest different ways in
which they can be organized, while remaining ecstatic throughout. The contours of the
textures the quartet wrestle with in the dark halls of feedback and sheer sk.onk are
incredible. Whole generations of New York post-form giants are referenced or destroyed
in the course of Noise Opera. A statement as stunning as any you will hear this year."

new music, Gong-like psychedelia and the unknown tongue. Using cello, sax, treated lap
harp and her mesmerising voice, Louise Bock creates surfaces that are sometimes as
chopped as ice sculptures made with a chainsaw, and at other moments as smooth as the
soft expanse of Brian Eno's forehead.

"Barring some miraculous discovery (never out of the question!), Mars Archives Volume
Three: N.N. End is the final LP in our series of LPs documenting the music of New
York's most amazing combo of the No Wave era, Mars. From their more-quotidian
beginnings as China, whose sound was influenced by the Velvets and Television, Mars
mutated and grew in a variety of nearly unchartable directions. N.N. End documents
the latter, immaculate stages of the band's destruction of song forms once and for
all. The A-side captures a live show at Max's Kansas City in July 1978. They were
still playing some of the songs from the No NY compilation, which had not yet been
released. Their sound had moved on since the recording session, however, and you can
hear the songs dissolving structurally as they move along. Pretty amazing. The B-side
is from a rehearsal tape recording while they prepped for their final show (at Max's
in December 1978.) At this point, Mars was shredding the cocoon that had held their
music. Then shredding the music itself. Vocals, guitars, rhythms all come apart in
clumps, taking on lives of their own. Beyond good and evil, Mars stood alone. And
then they were gone. Hope you've followed their contrail."

"For his second Feeding Tube LP, following the superb solo outing Orphic Resonance
(FTR 281LP, 2017), Eric Arn has chosen to team up with the Austrian shapeshifter
Margaret Unknown (aka Max Bogner), for a set of acoustic guitar duets. Eric's history
is well known via solo work, duets with Tom Carter, and hard psych playing from his
pre-Vienna days with both Primordial Undermind and Crystalized Movements. We knew
Margaret mostly for his work with (In) The Abyssity of the Grounds, who backed Linda
Sharrock on her massive Gods 3LP set (which should be a fixture in every home).
Recorded live at the mo.ë space in Vienna, Paranza Corta (Italian for a Sicilian
style knife fight) is far less of a combat situation than a deeply explored
intersection of stringed logic. Without being able to tell who plays what (and
although the tracks are named after various bladed weapons), the music here is
a fight, in the sense that the opening scene of West Side Story is a fight. While
choreographed only on a subliminal level, these two guys allow each other a lot of
space to change directions, and almost seem to be working in tandem, so immediate are
their reflexive actions. The heft of the interplay here recalls some of the nylon
string collaborations Eugene Chadbourne did back in the Parachute days, although he
wasn't big on guitar duets (at least on record). The playing here offers the same
brilliant mix of organically achieved weirdness that can begin as a gentle outside
motion, and then grow to devilish proportions without ever going too far. If there
even is such a thing. If there is (and I acknowledge the possibility), the music on
Paranza Corta does not go there. It's a brilliant tapestry of gesture, reaction and
recontextualization. Of course, as I write those words, I begin to realize that maybe
it is more like a knife fight than I'd thought. We should really ask Russ Tamblyn what
he thinks." --Byron Coley, 2018

In March 1995, soon after the German Veracity label issued Wolfways, and just before
they did Parsnips Snips (1995) (Hurley's first vinyl after a nine-year drought), the
Great Snock undertook his first European tour. Joined by bassist Robert Michener
(from the Richmond scene Hurley'd been involved in) and percussionist Mickey Bones
(legendary Boston drummer & bones player), Hurley hit a bunch of places and Germany
and also KLUB K4 in Llubjana, Slovenia, where this set was recorded. The sound is
beautiful, the band plays with lazy perfection, and Hurley's vocals are energetically
melodic. He does some songs that were only released on the series of cassettes that
immediately preceded Wolfways ('Horse's Ass,' 'The Beggar's Terms'), stuff from
Wolfways ('Letter in Neon,' 'Portland Water,' 'I Paint a Design'), classics like
'O My Stars,' and a few cover tunes. And More! Packed up in a new Hurley art cover
design (based on the Euro tour t-shirt), with great liner notes detailing the rigors
of a German press junket from right before the tour-proper, this package is sure to
please discerning Snockophiles of all stripes. It's a fantastic spin. Dig in today."

FTR 386 DELPHINE DORA & JACKIE MCDOWELL : THE DREAM OF CHANGE CS 05.2022
The initial collaborative seed for The Dream of Change was planted back in 2016
when Delphine Dora invited Jackie McDowell to release some of her solo work on
her now-defunct micro-label, Wild Silence. This invitation resulted in McDowell's
masterfully crafted drone-folk song cycle, "New Blood Medicine". Fast forward two
years to when Dora was immersed in the process of recording, L'inattingible, her
most ambitious and highly orchestrated full-length, and she once again reached out
to McDowell to provide some vocal arrangements for a few pieces on the album.
Given their affinity for wide-reaching folk songcraft and avant composition, along
with their shared interests in poetry, literature, nature, and inner inquiry, Dora
and McDowell constellated with each other organically. This gave way to a two-year
creative collaboration, the fruition of which is now an album called The Dream of
Change. The music spans from 2019 to 2021, and the vision was to make some kind of
utopian pieces that fit together in honest, expressive layers that make resonance
in contrast with the gloominess of this sad period we've all encountered.
The Dream of Change is co-released by Feeding Tube Records and Round Bale Recordings.

"Matt 'MB' Jones has long been kicking back and forth between the Valley and Asia.
His recordings with Jee Jee Band have reflected this duality. And this new 'solo'
album, recorded mostly in his original backyard with a cast of local hottentots
(Conrad Capistran, Tim Sheldon, John Moloney, etc.) continues this vibe, while changing
it in many subtle ways. The K-Pop readymades of the Jee Jee Band's Glass Fish LP
(EM 1138CD/LP) have continued to drift out of Matt's repertoire. This remodeling began
on Jee Jee's Holy Yolk LP (FTR 304, 2017), and by this point the hints are still there
if you know where to look for them, but they no longer jump out at you. Matt's basic
constructions are still often electronic pop at their base, but the details that get
piled on top of that now require a wide closet of costumery. From the multi-tracked
vocal glistens of '$200,000 Ticket to Space' (with neo-gamelanic tone highlighting)
through to the jaw-harp-riven dolor of 'Going Swimming in the Morning,' the only real
common thread the mood of dislocation Jones bakes into many of his lyrics. It's never
easy keeping one foot in reality (so-called) while extending your other foot into the
vacuum of space, but it's forward trajectory Matt seems to have managed. Perhaps this
is why he and Mike Watt have struck up a friendship (the two recently cut a lathe 7").
Just as Watt attempts to codify his personal history, while the statis of the world
constantly slides past him on his endless tours, Jones seems bent on writing twin
histories of his peregrinations -- one with each hand, while everything spins around
his head. It's an epic quest. And one to which you should pay sweet attention."

"For the first release in Feeding Tube's Unknown Province series -- a run of records
dedicated to exploring little known nooks of the Canadian underground, curated by
Alex Moskos -- we are delighted to bring you the first vinyl reissue of the 1968
zoner masterpiece by poet bill bissett and his fellow Vancouver freaks. We have
always been shocked this LP was not included on the NWW list, but Canadian releases
often seem to exist in their own universe, so we suppose that's the 'explanation.'
Because, in a list of any free-form freakouts, Awake in th' Red Desert would surely
have a high place. bissett was a sound/concrete poet of high repute when this was
recorded, and he was also something akin to the king of the Vancouver underground
scene. The original album was issued by Jim Brown's See/Hear label, which Brown
founded as an adjunct to his Talon Books imprint. Backed by a band of interesting
musicians (a few of whom went on to straighter afterlives), bissett created an insane
mass of sound, comparable to what Mayo Thompson's Red Crayola was doing in Texas
around the same time, laced with heavy Fugs overtones. Pure freaked sonics, created
while stoned, for an audience that was similarly blasted, and was willing to decode
what was going on using the very best acid logic available. Hard for me to describe
how much I love this album. And I will attest that this version sounds better than
any other available version ever has or could. It is jacked. Nice detailed liner
notes by Alex Moskos set the scene as well as anyone ever will, and if you don't
feel your teeth wiggling while this plays, I suggest you may never feel that
particular feeling. In your life. bill bissett is still going today, and we heartily
suggest that anyone who digs this album runs out and tries to nail down one or another
of his wonderful books before the sun sets." Edition of 500.

FTR 390 LP MY CAT IS AN ALIEN : ATP NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS LP 02.2019
2006 CURATED BY THURSTON MOORE
01. Side A
02. Side B
"The 2006 Nightmare Before Christmas festival was one of the most bodacious
assemblages of raw human talent assembled on our planet since the First Continental
Congress. But it wasn't all just guys and it wasn't all just proto-Americans, so that
means it was far better than any other such gathering before and/or after. One of the
crazier highlights of the weekend-long event was the set by Italy's insane fraternal
duo, My Cat Is An Alien. Using guitars and various other kaboobs, the Opalio boys
set Red's (aka Stage 2) on fire that Sunday night, blasting out zoned croaks, wobbly
drones and the kind of blabbermouth logic you usually can't access without written
permission from a doctor. There were many ecstatic musical yawps during that long-ago
weekend, but MCIAA's set left a deep groove in my memory. And it's a stone pleasure
to revisit it after lo, these many years. Two blurts of side-ling mystery, packed
in Roberto Opalio's wonderful art, with a little liner note booklet that can only
hint at what you may have missed. Thankfully, if you slap on the disc, close your
eyes and sniff a can of beer while lying down, you can approximate the whirling
thrill ride of the set itself. And sometimes an approximation is both closer to home
and more comfortable than an actual experience. So, yeah -- you're welcome!"

"This is the second volume of our series collecting the odds & sods of the immortal
Nudge Squidfish. Nudge is one of the singular figures to emerge from the Columbus
sub-underground rock scene of the 1970s. He was a member of The True Believers
(along with Mike Rep & Tommy Jay). He cut a single for the New Age label in '82, and
couple of odd solo LPs while he was living in Nashville later in the '80s. He was
a member of V-3 (along with Jim Shepard) after that. He also released a bonkers
full-length cassette on Old Age that was subsequently vinylized by Columbus Discount.
More recently, he has become a highly regarded disseminator of UFO videos (Google it).
The first volume of this series, You Can't Have Aliens Without The Squid
(FTR 321LP, 2017), was met with gasps of amazement and other tomfoolery. Robot Wars,
featuring material recorded between 1974 and 2017, covers even wider stylistic ground
than Aliens, and is certain to provoke as many questions as there are answers.
The material here is performed by Nudge solo, Root Cellar (a band with Charles
Cicirella on smutty vocals), Jayfish (Nudge + Tommy Jay), and V-3. And while Nudge
(left to his own devices) has shown signs of being a pop artist, the music here does
not hew to that notion. From fine, straight bar blues readymades to spaced-up electro
doo-dads to neo-Nig Heistian raunch polemicism, to guitar bursts worthy of Crazy Horse,
Robot Wars presents many the faces of the Squid. And yeah, it includes his pop side,
but the breadth and balance are kinda staggering. Roll on, Big N!"

Eugene Chadbourne is one of the great guitar players of the modern era. At the time
he began recording in Canada in 1975, his music was a unique syncretic formulation.
While its most obvious component was free improvisation in a style then most widely
associated with English and European players, his music also contained elements of
jazz, country, folk, blues, psychedelic and international sounds, referencing these
threads in ways that were so diverse and intensely personalized it would take scholar
decades to decode them.

provinces of Canada, while avoiding the conscriptive powers of Richard Nixon and his
ilk. Exact details of the recordings are unknown, but that's trivial. There are six
tracks of improvisational guitar madness at its most glorious. Describing them is
almost impossible, but I can at least tell you their names 'Piazza del Duomo',
'Preperation Dimafbay' (sic), 'Father (You Opened)', 'That's All Water Under the
Bridge' (purported to be the first lesson of a proposed guitar instructional record,
which is a fairly brain-searing concept) and 'Rocket!' (which is a different take of
the Oliver Lake classic first recorded on Volume Two). This last one might be my fave
Chadbourne acoustic piece ever. Maybe yours too! If not, just give this a spin and
let us know your favorite. Maybe you'll win a button. Solo Guitar Volume 2-1/3 is

to have been originally conceived and performed while in the lair of Davey Williams,
R.I.P. (and associated members of the Alabama Surrealist Cabal). 'The Shreeve' is
another take of a track originally recorded for the timeless Volume Two LP.
'Reflections' and 'Superman's Problem' probably date to a Clouds & Water session in
early '79. Heard together they suggest an entire parallel universe of guitar history.

guitar madness at its most glorious. Describing their textures is a fool's errand,
but that is the job I was born to do. 'Bow' is new to me, but the sonics suggest the
title may be a practical description of how some of the effects are achieved. 'The
Bird', which has been issued on cassette previously, is a wonderful example of
Eugene's most swinging jazzbo playing. 'Be' is another piece that's new to me, with
long sequences of bent-string attack accruing epic grandeur as they unspool. And
'Mao Tse Tung Did Not Have to Deal with People Who Were Watching Seven Hours of
Television Every Day', which was a bonus track on the CDR version of Solo Guitar
Volume Two, is a sidelong ode to revolutionary techniques of all kinds, employing
a bunch of them as it evolves, with results that are pure bananas. If you play all
four volumes of this set in order, you will begin to imagine a whole new universe
of guitar technique. We hope they fill in some gaps for you. We have been blown away
by each and every one. And would like to thank Doctor Chadbourne for sharing his

FTR 397 FAUN & A PAN FLUTE 2014-2016 2LP 08.2018

03. Faun & A Pan Flute Dave II
04. Faun & A Pan Flute Brevity
05. Faun & A Pan Flute Ball
06. Faun & A Pan Flute The Nose
Although their name suggests they're Nijinsky-obsessed acid folk wanderers, nothing
could be farther from the truth. 2014-2016 is the second album by this Atlanta-based
nontet, and it presents a wide swathe of styles and contrasting textures that are
wildly eclectic but never very acid-folky. The name stems from the fact that when the
band began, some seven years ago, their line-up often changed and they tended to use
a different band name every time they played a show. Faun & A Pan Flute somehow got
used for a couple of shows and it stuck, not least because it's a fairly ridiculous
piece of misdirection. The music on this 2LP set, recorded during the period
encapsulated by the album's title, are a wonderful expansion on the music heard
on their eponymous debut LP. The sounds are complex and fully composed instrumental
pieces that mix elements of jazz, prog and post-rock shimmer with equal assurance.
Hard to imagine keeping such a large ensemble together these days, considering the
financial privations of the underground, but they manage to pull it off, and even
make it seem easy. The music on this album shifts between genres with lazy ease.
Some of it sounds like Italian soundtrack action by one of the '60s masters, other
parts recall everything from Waka/Jawaka-era Zappa to Steve Reich's late '70s
ensembles to the Nels Cline Singers to some of Keith Tippetts' larger bands.

Feeding Tube Records (Blue Sabbath Black Fiji, Thurston Moore) front the fifth LP from
slide guitarist Jon Collin. Water And Rock Music, Volume 1 is a more literal title than
it may at first appear given that the record actually was recorded on the shores of a
Swedish lake. These lovely, woozy takes capture the tranquility of the location
expertly. Keep an eye out for the second volume which is set to drop in a few months.

FTR 401 LP PHURNNE TO LOVE LIGHTLY... LP 05.2019
01. Phurnne A
02. Phurnne B
"First album-maybe even first physical release?-by this exquisitely odd Massachusetts
-based trio of sound-collagers. Violinist, Jen Gelineau, is well known to FTR lovers
via her work with Eggs Eggs and Donkey No No. Laptop cruncher Andrea Pensado has
likewise released a solo album with us -- Without Knowing Why (FTR 203LP, 2015)-as
well as one with her old combo, Los Condenados-Yeppers! (FTR 126LP, 2013). New to us
is electronics-and-tapes-shuffler Stephanie Germaine, but she proves to be a dab
hand at making sonic events wiggle in the air like some many Chinese ash-snakes.
Phurnne is around five years old at this point, but they have kept a low profile
until now, thinking (perhaps) that the long-form pieces they create are better suited
to live performance than passive homebound listening. From my own personal viewpoint
that's a crock of whale shit. The music Phurnne invents is so texturally subtle in
spots you really need to be able to examine it inside a dark and quiet safe space.
Their sound really only achieves its true stature when you actively listen to it
(something that's not always possible in a live setting). The music is so tactile and
original in the way it's layered, it kept reminding me of the one Nurse With Wound
live show I caught. As with that concert, the difference between "ordinary"
(read: identifiable) sounds, and shards of pure imagination is destroyed here.
Standard perceptual delineations are erased. And new terra incognito is being
continuously uncovered. This is an album full of wonders. And as cool as the trio
is in concert, it's very nice to have their music captured to examine at one's own
leisure." Edition of 250.

(Note : LP , 200 copies)
Mette Rasmussen is a Danish saxophonist, based in Norway, who has been recording with
some of our favorite players (Chris Corsano, Alan Silva, Mats Gustafsson, Ace Farren
Ford, etc.) She has also formed this duo with Asheville-based guitarist, Tashi Dorji
(whose combo, Manas, has had two LPs on Feeding Tube this far: FTR 208LP, 2015 and
FTR 330LP, 2017). The duo material for this LP was recorded in Montreal, right around
the same time Mette and Tashi recorded a trio set for Trost (with the addition of
drummer Tyler Damon). And it's all great stuff. Mette's playing has a raw tonal
approach that makes one think of Eric Dolphy at his harshest. Her lines evince much
of the same nimbleness as well. The effect is not unlike being hit in the face by
a bunch of snakes with wings. Naturally, Tashi is playing electric in order to make
himself heard, and the clots of sound he manages to coax out of his amp are worthy of
comparison with such form-erupters as Keith Rowe. On the first side, there's a real
physicality to the blocks Tashi creates, as well as to the manner which Mette's reed
attacks them. It's an incredible sound -- brutal and communicative in equal measures.
But as much as this may imply a musical surface akin to that of Borbetomagus, there's
a lot more open space here. Especially on the second side, the music is paced to give
itself over (now and then) to crenellations that allows in as much light as they emit.
This record is a supremely human effort and hopefully the harbinger of much more to
come." --Byron Coley, 2018

3 PBR Street Gang 09:15
"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 mesmerizing. Glenn made sure we kept in touch, and
when Lloyd had some new material ready we got an early listen to it. So, after 30+
CDs and cassettes, Feeding Tube is proud to present the first full-length vinyl LP by
the great Lloyd Thayer. Using a Weissenborn-style lap guitar (the same type favored
by Fahey) and a gorgeous 22-stringed instrument called a Chaturangui, Lloyd unwinds
four long improvs accompanied by the quietly flowing drum work of Jerome Deupree.
And if this makes you imagine the incredible blends recorded by Sandy Bull and Billy
Higgins back in '63 and '65, you are definitely in the right dreamscape. Deupree has
been around for a long time, starting off in the legendary Bar-B-Q Records scene
in Bloomington, then new-waving it up in Santa Cruz with the Humans, eventually
co-founding Morphine in Boston, while simultaneously moving into jazz with Joe Morris
and the Either/Orchestra. Jerome has played on a crazy assortment of records, but
the subtle interplay he displays with Lloyd's strings here is a perfect match.
The music is beautiful, shifting and abstract. And the song titles are equally
interesting. One is a blues for Fahey cohort Al Wilson, another for dobro pioneer
Melvyn Marshall. Those make sense. The other two are for hip-hop artist Rammellzee
and the British house duo, PBR Street Gang. Lloyd, naturally, claims the PBR Street
Gang ref has to do with Martin Sheen's patrol boat in Apocalypse Now. But after the
Rammellzee shout-out, who could believe him? Ha. But ultimately, who gives a tinker's
cuss? Duets is an album of dizzying accomplishment. Not exactly like anything you've
heard before, but such a satisfying spin you'll wonder where it's been all your life."

"Creative Healing is a new Massachusetts combo mixing the folks from Hollow Deck
(Andy Allen and Mia Friedman) with three old pals who also passed through the Ran
Blake Paddle Tunnel at NE Conservatory (Katie McShane, Jesse Heasly and Nick Neuberg).
The results are, as the old men say, a real gas. Although it's not a constant, there
are moments throughout this album where the swonky collision of sax, guitar and drums
puts me in mind of several classic versions of Beefheart's Magic Band. Nothing along
those lines in the vocal department (which are often delivered as casually as they
might be by MX-80's Rich Stim), but some of the harmonic threads are definitely of
a Vliet-ian ilk. But there's more horn and overt jazzliness here, and also a dual
tendency towards straighter and skronkier passages that would be outside the Magic
Band's realm. The female vocals, when they appear, lend an edge of sophisto-mystery.
It's not entirely unlike the way Dagmar Krause's parts worked during the later days
of Henry Cow. As you've probably gathered from the references, this is art rock played
at a very high level. There's no real nostalgia in it, however, the essential whatsis
of their music is fully contemporary, and has lots of mechanical detailing that places
it squarely in the post-post-hardcore stream. But it's also rooted in the great eternal
gush of progressive music is all its many guises. And if that makes it seem like
there's a little bit of everything here, well so be it. RIYL anything anywhere
between RWA, Slapp Happy and Men & Volts." Edition of 250.

03. Mako Sica & Hamid Drake - The Greatest Gift
04. Mako Sica & Hamid Drake - The Old Book
05. Mako Sica & Hamid Drake - The Wu Wei
"Brilliant, inspired and somewhat surprising collaboration between Chicago's premier
free-rock trio and the truly legendary percussionist, Hamid Drake, who has played with
everyone from Don Cherry to Peter Brötzmann to Lee Perry. This collusion was
precipitated by Matt Jackowiak, a mutual friend, who thought a merging of their sounds
might make for an ecstatic explosion. This feeling became mutual after they played
a show together at Constellation. The set mixes Mako Sica tunes with improvisations
that took everyone to places they hadn't expected, and the trip was deemed an utter
success. Ronda was done at two sessions, scheduled around Hamid's insanely busy work
schedule. The first was at Jamdek with Douglas Malone at the board, the second was at
Electrical Audio with Taylor Hales. The Electrical session allowed the players access
to a host of additional instruments, so the sonic palette on 'Dance With Waves' and
'Emanation' is wider and somehow more cosmic than usual. But the whole album has an
extraordinary depth and width of sound. Even the great songs Mako Sica has had in its
set for a while like 'The Old Book,' gain whole new levels of otherness here, and the
material based in quartet improvisations, like 'The Wu Wei,' explores wild new
territory for the band. Ronda (named after a town in southern Spain with a famous
18th Century bridge crossing a deep gorge) is the first span connecting the disparate
musical worlds of Mako Sica and Hamid Drake. Let us hope it is but the first of many."

2019 repress, gold vinyl! "Silk is the fantastic third LP by Maxine Funke, a New
Zealand musician whose first recordings were with the legendary $100 Band (Funke,
Alastair Galbraith, and Mike Dooley!), whose music was drifting experimental dust of
a very high order. Maxine's first two solo albums, Lace (2008) and Felt (2012)
(originally released as CDR on Galbraith's Next Best Way and a lathe on Epic Sweep,
respectively), were reissued by Time-Lag to great acclaim in 2016, securing her place
in the upper echelons of contemporary folk inventors. With the release of Silk,
Ms. Funke manages to create an album that merges both of these style threads. Many
of the tracks are cast in an intimate mood congruent with artists like Sibylle Baier,
Barbara Manning, Myriam Gendron, Joanne Robertson, and other women who have pulled
sweetly dark sounds from pockets of deep emotion, abetted largely by acoustic guitar.
On a few other tracks, electronic instrumentals hearken back to her work with
transceivers in the $100 Band days. The balance between these posts is delicately
intoxicating. A readymade classic from start to finish, Silk travels a brilliant
series of spaceways with grace and assurance. We should all be so lucky."

10. Lauri Mcnamara Heart Gave Out
Lauri McNamara is one of the crazies who make the New England sub-underground such
a richly interesting universe to inhabit. She worked off and on with the late,
lamented Egg, Eggs, but her main focus has always been on solo performance,
accompanying herself on ukelele. A few other people make their presence felt on her
debut LP, Knobby Knoll, but let's not get bogged down in their details. 'Cause
really, this is Lauri's show, no matter who else might be sitting in. Unlike the
many idiots who play uke, emphasizing its child-like qualities, Lauri handles the
little axe like an adult. In her hands the instrument is just a guitar with a more
compressed palette. And one gets the impression that what some people would view as
the limitations of the instrument are appreciated by McNamara for their inherent
intimacy. Knobby Knoll is nothing if not an intimate experience. The lyrics are
filled with Lauri sharing aspects of her persona, alternately affectionate and
judgmental, but always melodic. Many artists who inhabit similarly idiosyncratic
creative space eschew compositional beauty as a necessary element, but Ms. McNamara
has a very dab hand creating hooks inside a context where they seem almost anomalous.
In many ways, the songs here resemble classic 'parlor music' of the late 19th century.
For a moment, it can almost make you forget we live in the age of Trump.
What a gift!" 2018 Edition of 200.

Newly remastered reissue of Willie Lane's 2009 solo guitar LP, Known Quantity,
originally released on his own Cord Art label. Over the last few years, this album
has been requested at the store more often than just about any other, but it sold
out not long after it was issued and has risen in price consistently since that
time. Listening to Known Quantity, it's not hard to understand why it has such a
strong rep. Lane came out the Hampshire College scene that aligned itself with the
Apostasy Records crowd (Krefting, Shaw, Rosenblum, etc.). His first known recordings
were actually with some of the noisier experimental units associated with this cabal.
Willie was based in Philadelphia for a long time after college, where he fell in
with Jack Rose and the whole Fishtown scene of the early Oughts. Moving back to the
Valley, Willie also began working with Matt Valentine's tribe, and his first solo
album,Recliner Ragas, was issued as a C.O.M. CDR in 2006 before getting vinylized
by the Humito label in 2012. And keen listeners out there will detect a certain
"Spectrasound" feel to some of the electric passages here. The music on Known
Quantity is a buttery mix of electric and acoustic string aktion. Samara Lubelski
plays bass on one track, but it's all solo apart from that. And it's a wonderland
of textures and sound shapes. Some of the pieces are almost straight ahead (somewhat
more in tunes with the work Willie does when he plays live), but others are as wobbly
and jagged as a drunk peacock. It's an amazing record, and rewards multiple listens
with constantly unfolding details. Max Milgram (from Watery Love) did the new cover
art (based on the original LP's photographic frontispiece) and the mastering by
Carl Saff is mighty nice. Enjoy..." Edition of 500.

(Note : LP , 250 copies)
"The second LP by Mark Cunningham's current Spanish outfit, Blood Quartet, marks
a directional shift from their 2016 debut LP, Deep Red (FTR 283LP). On Until My
Darkness Goes the quartet abandons pure instrumentalism, including a few vocal
takes by drummer Cândid Coll strewn amidst the album's various tangles. There is
also a much more aggressively rockist focus shown at times. Rumor has always been
that this is a firm part of the band's live trip, but recorded evidence of it has
thus far been scarce. Of course, most of Until My Darkness Goes is in the same
great vein as Deep Red. Noirish trumpet drifts across a rotten cityscape, batting
down noise guitar rats that pop up from open manhole covers like goddamn
Whack-a-Moles. But there are other things going on as well. "Surfing Rueda" sounds
like some sort of unholy collaboration between the Raybeats and Sonic Youth.
"Stress of Her Regard" plays like Robert Wyatt doing his version of hard rock
vocals in front of the Tony Williams Lifetime. "Velvet Love" curls through the air
like a smoky reconsideration on Eric Burdon & the Animals' soft-psych phase. It's
crazy how fast this record drifts from style to style, although Blood Quartet always
touches back to their basic Chet Baker meets Pete Cosey conception. The whole album
is a collection of wild moves, as you might guess from the fact they cop a Stones
quote for its title, and even name a track after the Representative from Corwood.
I can't wait to hear what these guys get up to next, but for now we've all got
plenty to digest. So dig in." Edition of 250.

Paradisiacal Mind, Dire Wolves' tenth (or possibly twelfth?) full-length since 2008,
conjures a floating stellular kraut Americano with quite a lot to pull you in to the
mix and then drift you right back out again. Following two simultaneous 2017 releases
-- on Feeding Tube Records and Beyond Beyond Is Beyond -- that explored out-of-body
experience, this latest work turns decidedly inward. Psychic rock that guides your
vision to heaven, and heaven is in your mind. When cover artist Kyla Quigley asked
the band to draw from the tarot to inform her new work, the card was The Star, a
renewal of hope and strength to carry on. And so it all came together -- acute,
right, and obtuse, all at once. A portion of the record was recorded in Oakland by
Zachary Watkins (Black Spirituals), who helped set the atmosphere to capture the
festival consciousness vibes. The remainder was realized on Bernal Hill, celebrating
the 50+ year tradition of San Francisco psychedelic intensity. Additional players
include Laura Naukkarinen (Lau Nau), Taralie Peterson (Spires That In The Sunset
Rise), and Michael Whittaker (Jackie-O Motherfucker). Recommended to the open minds
that celebrate such sounds as the punk-hippie crossover scene of mid '80s SST records,
as well as listeners of Scandinavian/Teutonic communal motorik vibes. And those into
spiritual jazz, meditative and primordial minimalism, and scratched Environments LPs
from the dollar bin.

"Although I have lately taken to associating Louisville's Ryan Davis with the maniacal
blurt of Tropical Trash, I am reminded by the release of the fourth State Champion LP,
Send Flowers, that this is his original mothership. Send Flowers is State Champion's
most fully realized Beard Rock expression to date. The surrealist underpinnings of
Ryan's lyrics are heavier than ever, but that is balanced by the band's most
epiphanically tasty licking. The pieces fit together with such easy organic grace,
it's tempting to suspect they're simple. But the closer you listen to the parts the
more complex they appear. This begins with Ryan's words, which are sung so gracefully
you have to concentrate to pick up on the timeless phrases he invents here, but when
you pay attention they jump up and just about bite you. The same thing goes for the
instrumentation, which initially passes as a mere recreation of lost Topanga threads,
but surpasses those bounds with the something approaching the same assurance as the
David Lindley-led band on Terry Reid's River LP (the transcendent Beard Rock
masterpiece). Send Flowers will almost surely be misapprehended by lazy farmers and
the cows who follow them. It may also be anathema to folks who primarily head-link it
to Tropical Trash, but for anyone who digs the new generation of singer/songwriters
out there, from Wooden Wand to Ned Collette to the legacy of the Silver Jews. Peel
slowly and see."

"We were first made aware of this Brooklyn band by Gary Panter. When we asked Gary
about some specific projectors for light shows, he said we'd be best off conferring
with his colleague, Curtis Godino. And oh yeah, Curtis also helmed a dastardly
psychedelic music unit called Worthless. Checking out some of Worthless's previous
recordings for Beyond Is Beyond, Stupid Head, and Greenway, we were struck by the
weirdness and seamlessness of their psych stretching; if ever there was music made
for light shows, this was pretty much it. The Cave is Worthless' third vinyl LP and
is as stellar a set of glistening sonics as you will hear this year. In a certain
sense, this session marks the band's evolution in a direction that approaches the
sweet spot with psychedelic and progressive music meet for long walks on the beach.
The overall vibe of the album is free-form and floating, with the edges of the aural
tapestry going in and out of focus with buzzing irregularity. There are big shards
of Saucerful-era Floyd guitar zonerism, mixed with luminous Zappa-damaged pomp
flourishes, a certain chunk of drama from the Nice, and a general sort of Vertigo
/Dawn/Harvest gush that will keep your brain wonderfully off balance when you try to
place this music in the context 21st century Brooklyn. The (often instrumental)
passages of music on The Cave move like one of the nicest white whales from the class
of '68, who has managed to remain uncaptured until now. It doesn't fall into any
known style traps so common in music by young people who are reaching back into
history for clues. This is music sweetly fried for the stoned future. Yours, we can
only hope." Edition of 250.

"The second volume of Water and Rock Music by British guitarist Jon Collin is another
solid gambol in the outdoors. For much of this it sounds almost as though Mr. Collin
is wearing a pair of hip waders and is up to his ass in a stream, casting for notes
the way Hemingway casted for trout. His string bending recalls Loren Connors at points,
but he has a manual approach to filigree Loren has never displayed. Notes bend and
hover, but they also flutter, and the combination of sounds is not quite like anything
that's preceded it. Some listeners have noted that the environmental sounds put them
in mind of new age string pluckers, but Collin's compositions do not fall into the
trap of needing to resolve melodic quandaries, or making gestures that chase after
standard forms of beauty. Jon's music works as a series of comments on sound and
questions about the physical space in which it's created, but like any good philosopher
he knows when to leave a sense of mystery hanging in the air. There is plenty of
sweetness to the playing here, whether he's strolling through a playground, standing
in the middle of a busy street, or sitting the flight path of an airport. The music
never seems dictated by the background sounds, so much as it encourages us to consider
every part of the sonic construction to be heard as music (in the Cage-ian sense).
The elements become a part of the greater whole in a seamless way. And the closer you
listen the more that becomes clear. I am still most struck by (at least what sounds
like) the 'stream' sequences. But that's just because I really like the visuals it
conjures up. You may find different personal sweet spots. But find them you will.
Water and Rock Music Volume II is a truly ear-opening spin." Edition of 250.

"Dan Melchior is great randomizer of a musician. Born in the UK, based in the US for
the last 20 years, his discography ranges from raw garage rock to avant garde tape
collages, visiting a whole lots of other points in between. Exhibit A is his first
collaboration with P.G. Six (aka Pat Gubler) the wonderful New England based multi
-instrumentalist, who has previously appeared with Wet Tuna (FTR 364LP, 2018), Weeping
Bong Band (FTR 313LP, 2018), MV & EE (FTR 167LP, 2015) and Joshua Burkett
(FTR 196LP, 2015). This time out P.G. plays keyboards, recorder and electric 12-string
guitar, leaving the vocals and acoustic guitar to Brother Melchior. The material on
Exhibit A hearkens back to some of Melchior's early records, which had a bluesy
British simplicity somewhere between Duster Bennett and Sexton Ming. The melodies
are fully formed and horribly hook-laden, but there's roughness to the textural edges
(and riff-qua-riffs) that gives the music an extra layer of surly magnificence.
Some of the lyrics are funny as hell. I dare you to resist from smiling while listening
to 'Never Trust a Man Without Sideburns' or 'It Was Good Fun'. And the cover of
Creation's classic 'Painterman' is as beautiful example of form-evolution as you'll
find this year. Or any other. Exhibit A is a great spin from first note to last. There
are lots of strange instrumental textures and tropes, all more or less inside the
confines of modernist folk invention, and the whole shimmers with a very special kind
of light, while still sounding deceptively plain. It's hard to keep up with Melchior's
many releases and style shifts, but it's always worth doing. And this one is a pip."

06. Into The City (Night Vision)
Feeding Tube Records and Cardinal Fuzz announce, at last, the long-awaited Sunflare
album, ON. After three previous releases of brain-frying, high volume, pedal-to-the
-metal freak-outs, Sunflare are at last back to bring some serious brain-buzzing,
primitive punk scorch to a prevailing M.O.R. psych scene in need of some serious face
melting. Hailing from Lisboa, Portugal, Sunflare are a scorchin' power trio
specializing in high-energy Psychedelic Speed Freak wipe-outs. ON is here to fry
minds with a driving rhythm section that brings new meaning to the word relentless
and a guitar player that is perpetually freeform feedback soloing over every second
committed to wax via the gnarliest of fuzz and wah-wah pedal abuse. Over two sides
of vinyl there is never any let up as Sunflare deliver a blazing eruption of ear
piercing sound. With ON also comes a second LP of the long out-of-print "C30
-Red Tape" release (only ever available as a cassette back in 2010). As soon as
you put this on, you will see why both Feeding Tube and Cardinal Fuzz were so
desperate to include this as part of the ON package and commit it to vinyl at long
last. If you like High Rise, Comets On Fire, and drinking petrol, then this is the
band and record for you. ON is presented in a 320gsm wide spine card sleeve; comes
with a download code.

"Brilliant new album from Village of Spaces, a combo once described as, 'Dan and his
raggle taggle band of hippies' by Michael Hurley, a guy who knows about such things.
The Dan in question is Dan Beckman-Moon who, along with his partner Amy Moon Offermann
-Sims, is the central core of this constantly evolving, psychedelically-inclined,
folk juggernaut. V.O.S. has had many name variations and members in the 17 years since
Dan and Amy formed this more perfect union, but all of their recordings are possessed
by a singular sense of rurality and otherness. They've been based everywhere from
Santa Cruz to New Orleans to Belfast (Maine), and this album was recorded in expectedly
nomadic fashion. Using various players and rooms from their network of collusionists,
Shaped by Place offers a smoother ride than some of its predecessors. The two covers
they do of songs by Gordon Bok (the legendary Maine folksinger/woodworker who was
Dan's mentor when he was coming up) have a very sweet traditional swing. On
"Shoreline Birds,"" the way Dan's voice interacts with the pedal steel puts me in
mind of Mike Nesmith's classic collabs with Red Rhodes (like "The Great Ennui" off
Nevada Fighter (1971)). Other parts move like some unreleased Raccoon label album,
with the same mix of straight and weird that whole crew managed to conjure up so
effortlessly. Players on Shaped include members of Big Blood, Amps for Christ, Dire
Wolves, and all manner of stylistic drifters. Sorta like what Hurley said, but better.
A true feast of the mind, ears and soul. Dig in now or be forever hungry for something
you can't quite put your finger on. Mystery is rarely served up so neat."

"Aircraft was the name Steve Cohen used for the largely unknown and quite fantastic
synthesizer music he was creating in NYC in the '80s. This was in the same period
Steve was in the late-period No Wave band, China Shop, along with guitarist Naux
(who would go on to play with the Voidoids) and percussionist Richard Edson (whose
next band was Sonic Youth). Steve had been active in the NYC sub-underground since
the '70s, even playing at Giorgio Gomelsky's legendary 'Zu Music Festival' in 1978.
Steve pops up playing bass on various odd sessions with various odd musicians like
the late painter-turned-punker-turned-funkateer Snuky Tate, among others. But very
few had heard the music Steve recorded as Aircraft apart from the handful of friends
to whom he passed cassettes back in the day. We found out about Aircraft through
Christopher Livengood of Video Nasties. Chris befriended Steve a few years ago and
was blown away by the Aircraft tapes he heard. Steve eventually opened up his archives
to Chris allowing him to assemble Sideways/Backwards -- an amazingly great LP's worth
of synth/guitar/drumbox gabble that was darn near lost in the fogs of time. The album
includes notes about where and how each track was put together, and the music will be
a blast for anyone who digs the '80s output of the Residents or German groups like
Der Plan. Very cool!" Edition of 250.

LP Cardinal Fuzz CF 119 2018 UK
Vinylization of the second cassette released by UK string player Alison Cotton. We
first ran into Alison's work in its more overtly folky guise, as a member of Left
Outsides. Then we caught the scent of an amazing tape she did with Michael Tanner
(aka Plinth) that displayed her more avant garde leanings. All Is Quiet followed the
same lines, albeit in solo fashion, blending long dark viola and harmonium lines with
vocals drawn straight from the clouds. The effect resembles Tony Conrad in places
and John Cale's work with Nico in others, while remaining trademark Alison Cotton
throughout. And as nice as the tape was, it's even nicer to has this music on an LP,
since it's an archival format and will outlive all of us if properly cared for.
Just as the music of Alison Cotton feels as though it was designed to last through
the ages. Beautiful stuff."

FTR 425 A.B ELKHORN SUN CYCLE LP+DLc 04.2019
01. Altun Ha
02. To See Darkness
03. Subway Mirror Heart
04. Song Of The Son
Two mind-bending slabs of acoustic and electric guitars, wandering into corners of
acid-logic only accessible to bravest explorers. Elkhorn is a duo -- Jesse Sheppard
and Drew Gardner -- from NYC. Their earlier records (Elkhorn on Beyond Is Beyond,
The Black River on Debacle) would have blown us away, even if we didn't know Jesse
from his work as a film-maker (he directed the Glenn Jones/Jack Rose doc, The Things
That We Used to Do) and organizer (he put together the 1,000 Incarnations of the Rose
festival). Elkhorn's music, which we had suspected might be in a fairly traditional
American Primitive vein, was anything but. And these two LPs (released individually,
but recorded more or less simultaneously) explore a whole warren of new style caverns.
Sun Cycle was recorded at Jason Meagher's Black Dirt Studio and is closer to their
pure duo sound (although guitarist Willie Lane and percussionist Ryan Jewell are
along for the ride). There are elements of the American Primitive thread present,
but these touch mostly on the outer reaches of the form, like Gene Estibou & Jean
-Claude Pickens' Intensifications, or the crazy distentions of MV and PG Six. Layers
of pluck and soar and light percussion mix at the upper edge of the cosmic barrier,
and Sun Cycle is, to our ears, Elkhorn's most adventurous and fully realized album
yet. On Elk Jam (FTR 425CD-LP), Willie Lane and Ryan Jewell function more as members
of a psychedelic folk-rock quartet, and the troupe takes things even deeper in a Bay
Area-styled trip zone. Recalling the classic ruminations of Mountain Bus, the full
four man Elkhorn is exactly what the doctor prescribed for a generation of sack-butts
who imagine John Mayer's pudgy phallus-riffs have shit to do with transcendental psych
exploration. Elkhorn are the true sonic dealio. Instrumental music doesn't get much
better than this.

Trimdon Grange Explosion are an psych folk ensemble from North-East London comprising
Alison Cotton (viola/vocals), Ben Phillipson (guitar/vocals), Mark Nicholas (bass)
and Karl Sabino (drums). The quartet formed in the aftermath of the split of acclaimed
folk-rock outfit The Eigteenth Day Of May of whom all four were members. In 2010
a 7" emerged on The Great Pop Supplement, a cover of Judy Henske & Jerry Yester's
'Raider' b/w 'The Trimdon Grange Explosion', and then after a further seven year gap,
their debut album release saw the light of day, initially as a limited-edition
CD-R box package on the Borley Rectory label in Spring of 2017. Cardinal Fuzz are
delighted to finally release this acid psych shindig on vinyl, Remastered by Chris
Hardman and with hallucinatory art-work by Peckham-based illustrator Luke Drozd.
The self-produced recordings of Trimdon Grange Explosion's eponymous set took place
during 2015-2016 in various North London locations. The 9 eclectic tracks (plus one
bonus track on the download too) range from original compositions to acid-tinged group
instrumentals to songs from the folk tradition, arranged for electric instruments.

A1 Chance Meeting

A3 The First Kiss
B4 Is It Love?
B5 Seeing The Sights
B6 The Light That Never Ceases To Fail
"In my count, this is the 25th album by Amherst's Idea Fire Company. And it a marvel
of creative whackery that unfolds its charms like a glamorous stripper doing a matinee
show at a well-lit coal mine. Many key auxiliary members have passed through IFCO's
ranks (Dr. Steve, Jessi Leigh Swenson, Meira O'Reilly, Franz de Waard, Graham Lambkin,
Matt Krefting, etc.), but the core of the unit has always been Karla Borecky (catcher,
piano) and Scott Foust (first base, trumpet/synth). On The Light they are joined by
bassist, Mike Popovich (a long-time Foust colluder), and the results are an album of
unqualified beauty. Karla's piano is the central focus here, employing a simple (almost
Satie-like) approach to melody, with a physical touch reminiscent of Chris Abrahams'
work with Necks. She combines mystery and familiarity with uncanny ease. Scott's
trumpet work has kinda come into its own here as well, sounding like Franz Koglmann
mocking Chet Baker. His synth playing also has its own distinct atmospheric quality.
Sometimes it's like a distant fog horn guiding brine shrimp to safety, at others more
like someone trying to make wood sculptures with a band saw. Popovich's bass playing
uses an equally sneaky environmental approach, often appearing to be an immobile object
that suddenly shifts its posture in a way that is contextually startling. Scott Foust
has been one of the leading lights of the Western Mass experimental scene for many
long years. That we have only done one record with him thus far -- Dead Girls Party
(FTR 279LP, 2018), an overlooked masterpiece -- is mostly due to the fact that we
keep very different hours. How nice to sync up for this one." Edition of 250.

Chicago saxophonist Dustin Laurenzi, a touring member of Justin Vernon's Bon Iver and
one-third of the inventive Chicago improvising collective Twin Talk, first encountered
the music of Moondog a decade ago, while studying at Indiana University.
The album was recorded live at Chicago's Hungry Brain in January of 2018, but Laurenzi
didn't expect to release the music until he listened back later. The ensemble -- which
also includes guitarist Dave Miller, trumpeter Chad McCullough, and alto saxophonist
Nick Mazzarella -- was carefully assembled: a mixture of players Laurenzi had worked
with or had desired to. There's an inescapably human, idiosyncratic vibe to the album,
coursing with raw emotion and fragile beauty that both honors the distinctive spirit
of Moondog and creates something utterly fresh at the same time. Edition of 500.

"Another brilliant posthumous album by Letha Rodman Melchior. Letha's music, as her
visual art, was a great collaged pile of extreme strangeness, with seemingly
irreconcilable objects butting heads in ways that end up making great sense. I met
Letha a long time ago, when she was in Cell, but I had not much idea of her work
beyond that until she had moved to North Carolina and I started hearing her health
was bad. Siltbreeze put out an amazing album called Handbook for Mortals (2013), and
it was essential listening. Letha managed to create very very warped music without
making it off-putting. Although her sonics were whacked as hell, they were created
with such a warm and gooey center that even people who'd usually shy away from such
things, would ask what was playing when we floated the album through the store's
stereo system. Siltbreeze followed up with the ungodly brilliant, Shimmering Ghost
(2015), after cancer claimed another genius, and we were stunned when Dan Melchior
offered us the chance to do this LP. Letha Rodman Melchior was a truly singular
artist. And it is with great pride that Feeding Tube presents another chapter of her
largely undocumented saga."

Letha Rodman Melchior was a musician and artist. Sadly, she died in 2014. She only
released one album, Handbook For Mortals, in her lifetime. Mare Australe is her
third album and second posthumous release. She makes extraordinary sound collages
from disparate sounds. Despite the oddness, her recordings retain a warmth only a
special artist can create. LP on Feeding Tube Records. Limited edition of 250 copies.

"Silk is the fantastic third LP by Maxine Funke, a New Zealand musician whose first
recordings were with the legendary $100 Band (Funke, Alastair Galbraith, and Mike
Dooley!), whose music was drifting experimental dust of a very high order. Maxine's
first two solo albums, Lace (2008) and Felt (2012) (originally released as CDR on
Galbraith's Next Best Way and a lathe on Epic Sweep, respectively), were reissued by
Time-Lag to great acclaim in 2016, securing her place in the upper echelons of
contemporary folk inventors. With the release of Silk, Ms. Funke manages to create
an album that merges both of these style threads. Many of the tracks are cast in an
intimate mood congruent with artists like Sibylle Baier, Barbara Manning, Myriam
Gendron, Joanne Robertson, and other women who have pulled sweetly dark sounds from
pockets of deep emotion, abetted largely by acoustic guitar. On a few other tracks,
electronic instrumentals hearken back to her work with transceivers in the $100 Band
days. The balance between these posts is delicately intoxicating. A readymade classic
from start to finish, Silk travels a brilliant series of spaceways with grace and
assurance. We should all be so lucky." Edition of 400.

"First LP by this rather berserk Portland Oregon duo, made up of vocalist/electronics
-scrambler Noa Ver and drummer/electronics-scamperer Zach D'Agostino. Our experience
with Portland music had led us to believe it often has a mellow and/or gentle edge,
but Sea Moss offer none of that. Their raucous, face-to-face approach to duo dynamism
is as weirdly aggressive as anything that's ever come out the dag end of Brooklyn or
Providence, and that's saying something. Using homemade electronic devices that
generate vast heaps of splutter and careenage, employing a percussive technique that
would make Fred Flintstone proud, and singing into a microphone that makes everything
sound like someone howling curses through an elevator's intercom, Sea Moss have arrived
at a modus operandi that will makes weaklings poop eggs. The wildness of their approach
is most evident in live concert, where they spend all their energy hurling figurative
rolling p[ins, frying pans and glottal pronouncements directly into each other's faces.
But on vinyl, it's possible to ponder the structural and lyrical gambits they use to
attack each other. The lyrics, at least what I think I can make out of them, explode
like strings of haiku written during a particularly hectic game of Exquisite Corpse.
And the instrumental portions of the tunes often sound as though they were written
for a Chrome tribute concert to be performed by lighthouse foghorns. The other day,
while I was playing this in the store, someone commented that the vocals reminded them
of very early Guerilla Toss. I pointed out that while there might be some small surface
similarities, the utter weirdness of the underlying music pretty much negated
comparison. Then I threw them out. Sea Moss is doing some crazy shit. Don't beggar
them with comparisons. Listen with all your holes open and pass the goddamn drool
cup." Edition of 250.

"In 2017 we released the Possession Sessions LP (FTR 325LP) by this extraordinary
Columbus, Ohio outfit. And while we wait for them to conjure up new fields of beautiful
spew, we thought it might be a public service to make their first two EPs available as
a single LP. Flash Fuck was released in 2013 by Tony Proccacino's visionary grunt-punk
concern, A Wicked Company. Vernacular Splatter came out two years later on the great
Columbus label, Superdreamer. Both of these records set our hair (what little of it
there is) on fire, so when Mike Rep told us he'd recorded Possession Sessions we were
on that bad bot like bees on a dead donkey. We finally got a chance to see 'em live at
the last Cropped Out fest and they did not disappoint. Aurelie Celine stands at her
drum kit, singing and playing with all the discordant orgone gush of Elisa Ambrogio
back in the early Markers days, and Chris Corbin whips crazy avant-roots moves out of
his guitar like they were low hanging fruit. Just bonkers. They had a third guy playing
also, as they sometimes seem to do on records as well, and hey -- the extra flesh was
a-okay. Sex Tide is a brilliant band by any standard. Don't be a moldy fig. Get with
the program."

B1 Opossum Bin Laden
B2 Imaginary Labelmate
B3 Rare Psych For Wayne
B4 Moon Tide
"Remastered reissue of the second brilliant Willie Lane LP released by Cord-Art, orig.
available (for a few moments, anyway) in 2012. Guitar Army of One is a bit less folk
oriented than its predecessor, Known Quantity (FTR 413LP), in as much as there's more
electricity and pedals being employed. But Willie's playing at this time was such
a weird hybrid -- from quiet country blues passages to blown psychedelic bong-wash in
the blink of an eye -- that no technique or approach was ruled out. Everything was
permitted. Which led to some mind-bending results. As the album's title infers, Willie
is on his lonesome this time with nary a collaborator in sight. But the sounds he
layers on tape can be so complex (not unlike some of the work by his occasional
running partner, Matt Valentine) that one gets the sense this the sound of Willie Lane
playing duets with himself. Recorded in Philadelphia, shortly before he returned to
Western Massachusetts to become, like the fictional Jesus, a carpenter, Guitar Army
of One is a superbly satisfying spin. From the Heldon-esque vibe of 'Ill Star,' to
the damaged canoodling of 'Rare Psych For Wayne' (which is also in the running for
best Record Scum song title of the 21st century), there's a strange surprise around

'A Pine Tree Shilling's Worth' has a hazily unstoppable flow, incorporating elements
of American Primitive and Bay Area Ballroom-era string greats in equal measure. Mostly
played on electric (although there are some acoustic overdubs), the music manages to
be abstract and melodic at the same time, with individual lines splanging off in
oddball directions, then reasserting their formal qualities inside a single musical
breath.

B2 Northern Lights (Colors Bleeding)
"A lot of people flipped out over how amazing Mako Sica's last album, Ronda
(FTR 409LP, 2018), was. Ronda was a 2LP set whereupon the Chicago trio collaborated
with legendary local percussionist Hamid Drake. This pairing seemed like a natural
to us, but for some reason people have been woefully unaware of Mako Sica despite
the fact they've been releasing killer records for a decade, and playing live shows
that submerge your brain in a sonic soup that recalls the Sun City Girls at their
most psychedelically Eastern. The band's approach to music feels almost alchemical.
Trumpet, voice, guitar, drums and keys blend together in mysterious ways. The vocals
are always more abstract than declarative, the guitar lines are sinewy, the rhythms
roll and splash like a mirage oasis made real, and the trumpet arrives (when it does)
sounding almost more like a shofar being played in a temple. The sound of Manifest
Being is celebratory and so fully freaked you'll be soaking in it for years to come.
The songs played are similar to the live set Mako Sika were polishing last year, and
the results are stunning.

"Shimmering dream pop readymades are the heart of Cosine, the debut release by Ancient
Pools (originally a cassette, and now an LP). Ancient Pools are a duo (Anna Jeter and
Kevin Christopher), recently relocated from Olympia to Portland, where Kevin was
offered a good set-up at a new studio. Anna is from Pensacola, FL, where she was in
a folk-tinged pop band called 100 Watt Horse. Kevin remains the bassist for a more
rockist Northwest quartet called Oh, Rose. But Ancient Pools, with its intimate,
electronics-dappled approach to minimalist pop-tones is a whole different thing.
The songs began gestation after Anna exiled herself to the woods of North Carolina
for a summer, before moving to Olympia, where she met Kevin. They wrote the second
half of the album in collaboration, but there's no obvious demarcation between the
halves. Gently struck drums and quiet strings emerge through a hazy wave of vocals
and synth that keep reminding me of the dreamy grace exuded by the duo version of
Yo La Tengo, right about the time Georgia started singing. The effect of listening
to Cosine on repeat (which actually resembles its creation process in certain ways)
is like sinking into sweet cloud of sound, baked by the sun, with sounds of nature
piping themselves into your system on a subliminal level. Quite a magnificent glide.

"Feeding Tube is pleased to be able to offer the first domestic release, helmed by
the superb British guitarist, Chris Joynes. For this album, Joynes has assembled
a polyglot ensemble comprised of folks from Dead Rat Orchestra (a splendidly bizarre
experimental volk outfit), guitarist Nick Jonah Davids (with whom Joynes recently
did a split LP of solo electric guitar improvs) and Cam Deas, who records both as
a sound artist and as an acoustic guitarist. The music they have created for The
Bormatez Tree (itself a semi-mythical tree found largely in travellers' tales of the
1500s) is a difficult to describe hybrid of approaches and techniques, drawn from
the vast collective imagination of the group. From swirls of North African string
design, accompanied by dream-time percussion, to banjo/fiddle duets redolent of
documentaries about the American Civil War, to flowing free form jams where everyone
piles on psychedelic licks. The all-instrumental unit sound ranges all over the place,
but after sinking in its warm tomes for a while, I am most put in mind of some of the
guitar-led UK post-units of the '70s (Fairport, Trees, Pentangle, et al) playing loose
and free at some nameless pub at the edge of peat bog, just letting things go in
whatever direction the winds blew them. It's not all like that, of course. But in
the main, the scent of Scotch, smoke and adventure is hard to ignore."

"The debut album by Western Mass trio, Mozzaleum, is an unholy union of hot cheese
pie, cool Italian prog, and wanton horror movie lust. One gets the feeling this's
the sort of band that Roky Erickson dreams about after a few mugs of cocoa and a
slasher flick watch-a-thon. The three tracks on the first side all take their names
from actual films (none related to the films' music as far as I can tell), the five
on the flip carry on in a more thematic manner. But the music on side two -- keys,
samples, effects, and Pinto's amplified bowed-saw -- are more in line with the band's
extremely visual live shows. With two lauded visual artists in the group ('Condread'
Capistran and 'Terrorica' Pinto) that's to be expected. 'A Damned' Parker is the
third member, and a 'recording virgin' (as in Pinto). Capistran is a seasoned vet
of such units as Sunburned, Tarp, Galacto Fidelity Unit and so on. There is also a
'ghost' fourth member in 'Germz' Pisani (aka Red Favorite), whose post production
touches give Dark Ride the bizarre quality it maintains throughout, Mozzaleum's visual
presence is so fucking strange it's easy to get hung up on when seeing them play.
But on record, you get to appreciate their sheer sonic attack, and it's just amazing.
Cinematic in all the cheesiest ways imaginable, the collage of elements manages to
transcend any kind of ironic zone you might suspect it would inhabit, existing as a
full throated and truly original roar. I can't wait until some smart film directors
hear this shit, start having personal visions of carnage and enlist this troupe to
do some actual soundtrack work. Get ahead of the curve. Shoot a movie in your own
brain today. Call it Dark Ride."

05. Weeping Bong Band Elf's Promise
"Following up on their eponymous debut LP, this Western Mass quintet has released a
live album that expands their musical palette, while retaining the essential magic of
their sound. Bill Meyer described Weeping Bong Band's music as a collision between
Popol Vuh's Florian Fricke and Hash Jar Tempo (itself a collab between Bardo Pond and
Roy Montgomery), and the same mix of drifty Germanic midnights and Bay Area Ballroom
sizzle is present on Weeping Bong's sophomore slab. Recorded at the 1794 Meeting House
in New Salem, MA -- the site of many finely smoked concert events -- all five key
members are on hand (which is not always the case). Beverley Ketch, PG Six, Anthony
Pasquarosa, Clark Griffin, and Wednesday Knudsen are all present and up to their necks
in the sonic swirl. A big new factor here is the piano, played in a style that makes
me think of Grace Slick's keyboard work on Blows Against the Empire (1970). This is
appropriate given that Weeping Bong Band is a similar sort of multi-band-sourced
collaboration as that classic 1970 Paul Kantner side. And since the same folks played
on both Kantner's Empire and Crosby's If I Could Only Remember My Name (1971), is it
a coincidence that one track on this album is called 'Remembering My Name'? You be
the judge. Amidst the clouds of quiet presence, strings are plucked or bent, pulses
emerge from the darkness, and your brain flows like butter. Just turn out the lights
and do it. You will be so happy you did." 2019 Edition of 500.

"Currently based in the Boston area, Joseph Allred was one of the players we first
encountered at 2018's Ten Thousand Incarnations of the Rose festival in Takoma Park MD.
Allred's playing had some Basho-esque sequencing that was highly engaging, and the
rest of the set was a killer, off-center swathe of string quiver we could not resist.
O Meadowlark is Allred's third solo vinyl (there are cassettes as well), and will
surely please many heads. Here're Joseph's words on how the album came together.
'I recorded this stuff at the end of last year all in one night without really
intending anything in particular with it. After I sat and listened back to it a
narrative came together really quickly and I reflected that in the song titles. Poor
Faulkner is a name I released music under for the first recordings I made several
years ago, but he's since become a character I sometimes tell stories about in my
music, or sometimes I assume his perspective and play songs from there. He's a very
lonely middle-aged man who lives in a house in a remote part of Tennessee. He thinks
the house is haunted, and the ghosts he sees range from the ghost of a kitten to a
woman's ghost that his grandfather brought back from WWII. O Meadowlark tells a story
about him, partially from an outside perspective and partially from his perspective.
He hears a bird and follows it into the woods, where he finds a cabin and is visited
by an angel. He stays the night at the cabin, and struggles to understand what the
angel is trying to convey to him. The next day the angel reappears and eventually
takes him to a celestial place where he's shown a vision. The album ends with his
ascent, but doesn't include the vision. I think that's part of something new I'm
working on at the moment.' Using guitars and banjos the way they were meant to be
used, Allred's narrative unfolds like a strange movie just for you. Dig it now."

"Great debut album by the new trio led by Detroit/Boston guitar legend Roger Miller.
Roger has been going at it since he was a tiny baby, with a recording career that
stretches back to Sproton Layer in 1970. He is still probably best known for his work
with Mission of Burma, but cognoscenti wallow in his work with the original Destroy
All Monsters, F.U.K., Empool, the Farmers, his crazy solo stuff, and recent jamming
with M2. With Trinary System, Roger manages to get wild trio aktion going that touches
on all phases of his magnificent trajectory. Things start off in classic Burma mode,
but everything feels a bit more straightforward than it did with that rascally outfit.
There is a garageyness and almost pre-punk feel to some of the playing here that has
been a footnote to some Burma tunes, but is allowed full rein with Trinary System.
The drummer, Larry Dersch, was half of the electric piano/drums duo, Binary System,
in the '90s. His collaborations with Roger continued into later versions of Birdsongs
of the Mesozoic (Boston's premier prog band for over 20 years). Bass and synth are
handled by Andrew Willis (an ex-pat from the Louisville sub-underground). Together,
they create a sound employing a powerful retro-futurist vibe. At times it's almost
like hearing a mid '70s power trio having a collective dream about the post-punk
future. But there's a distinct Motor City feel to the proceedings as well. The music
is just perfect for barreling down the highway (as I tested on a recent drive to
Pittsburgh) with thick, chunky riffs, odd vocals harmonies, and proletarian lyrics,
all tied together with the kind of whizzing guitar parts you didn't think anyone but
J Mascis made anymore. There are also miasmic psych flows, which the trio tends to
emphasize a bit more in live concert, but you should just buy the thing & figure it
out yourself. Pleasure guaranteed."

"Amazingly, here is the glorious (long-delayed) follow-up to Fred Lane's 1988
Shimmy Disc LP, Car Radio Jerome. In the wake of that surreal masterpiece, Shimmy
announced an LP called Icepick to the Moon, but it took 31 years to wrestle this
slab of bacon to the mat. And you'll be glad we did. Icepick takes up where Jerome
left off. As inhabited by visual artist, Tim Reed, 'Fred Lane' (I'll drop the
quote marks after this) is a lounge crooner with smoothly classic vocal chops and
a taste for lyrics shaped by Alfred Jarry's proto-Dada writings. Fred Lane is
a creature of the 'Pataphysical South, inhabiting the same pocket universe as
Bruce Hampton and Eugene Chadbourne. And we guarantee his music is as deeply
fried as anything you've ever heard. Or eaten. The roots of Lane have been explored
in Skizz Cyzyk's great documentary, Icepick to the Moon (to which this is not a
soundtrack LP), and are traceable back as far as high school in the late '60s, where
Lane and the late guitarist Davey Williams had a weird-o cover band. A couple years
later, they both ended up in the Tuscaloosa Alabama student/hippie ghetto (near the
University), where some older artists -- Craig Nutt (aka "Ron 'Pate") and a few
odd others -- had formed an art collective, Raudelunas, to do all the whacked out
stuff interesting people like to do . . . This was the beginning of a long Alabama
Surrealist tradition that includes LaDonna Smith, Anne LeBaron, Wally Shoup, and
many others. Anyway, at some point, Reed brought his Fred Lane persona to the party
-- an accretion of totally insane lyrics and performance tropes, set to what almost
sounds like swinging cocktail music until you start noticing the bizarre detailing
and avant-garde highlighting. Coming at the same early '70s moment that lounge retro
was functionally hip (Manhattan Transfer, Asleep at the Wheel, Capt. Matchbox, etc.)
the results were a complete mindfuck . . . The music, penned by Reed with Roger
Hagerty (aka Dick Foote), played by a band with Williams (aka Cyd Cherise) on guitar,
is unbelievably fine. Sadly, this was Williams' last recording session, but the
instrumental inventions are a wonderful extension of Jerome (which was notably more
sophisticated, sonically, than earlier recordings)..."

"The debut LP by Spiral Wave Nomads introduces a new psych duo comprised of two
musicians with active histories inside the New England sub underground. Guitarist
Eric Hardiman is one of the many hardened string wranglers for Albany's legendary
Burnt Hills, as well as the proprietor of the Tape Drift label and half of the
prolific experimental unit, Century Plants. Drummer Michael Kiefer is best known
as a member of Myty Konkeror and the exquisite trio that emerged from them-More
Klementines, whose eponymous album (2018) has made brains tingle all around the
globe. The Spiral Wave Nomads set is a lovely sprawl of electric guitar improv
(aided in spots by bass, sitar and double-tracked guitar) mixed with elegantly
tumbling drum work, guaranteed to illuminate many tunnels of spiraling trip-time.
Parts of the album may momentarily recall Rangda at their most lysergic, but the
crossed-eyed way the two players have of busting up and hanging on to shards of
melody and rhythm is all their own. If you liked the More Klementines album, I dare
say you'll like this as well. But it's in a slightly different bag as well.
Vibrationally consonant without resorting to apery. A beautiful sonic spread."

"Tax is the second vinyl from Taxidermists; the great Western Mass pop/punk duo
comprised of guitarist/vocalist Cooper Handy and drummer Salvadore McNamara. Their
first album, Honesty Box (2015) was a super interesting blend of screwed-up Sonic
Youth/Pavement textures and straight-up power-pop. It had weirdly addictive properties
and ended up getting a good number of spins. So, when a new album was ready, Ted Lee
jumped on it like a badger attacking a kangaroo rat. And we're glad he did. Tax leans
a little bit more in the pop direction than its predecessor, but it still has plenty
of odd touches that keep it from being anything like a readymade confection. Some of
this is surely due to the difficulty of going soft when you have an electric band with
a duo line-up. Most better-known groups choosing such an arrangement are in the
experimental or noise "bag," but there have also been examples of bands doing more
overt "rock" action in this guise, ranging from the obscure (Smashchords) to the
massive (White Stripes). But what the Taxidermists are doing is rather different;
while they still show a certain raggedy edge, the bulk of the material on Tax seems
like a reimagining of music by heavy British bands of the '60s. Elements of the Kinks,
the Who, and the Shadows all pops up in unexpected ways, collaged and submerged in the
Taxidermists' own medicated goo. In short, it sounds like a record Wes Anderson might
have commissioned if he decided to do a soundtrack from scratch. What could be better
for a summer spin? Not much!" 2019 Edition of 250, 45 RPM.

"Recorded a bit before the last Big Blood slab we released-Operate Spaceship Earth
Properly (FTR 385CD/LP, 2018) -- The Daughter's Union represents the true introduction
of Caleb and Colleen's daughter, Quinnisa as a full member of Big Blood.
The Maine-based duo had been using Quinnisa as their secret hard rock weapon for
quite a while, so it is gratifying as heck to see her finally get her due! In their
new fully-fledges trio guise, Big Blood puff themselves up like a most splendid glam
rock peacock, fairly bursting with readymade-riffs and inspirational high kicking
energy bursts. Initially, this can seem a bit odd, given Big Blood's historical
appreciation of bizarre folk-derived textural-psych. But heard in the context of their
musical evolution, this move appears as just another roost along a trail that involves
a whole lot of mountains and woods, with the occasional meadow-based rock festival
stirred into the mix. By covering tunes by the Troggs and Silver Apples, Big Blood
make it abundantly clear their interests are as far from catholic as their influences.
Although it also seems that they are able to successfully transmute even the most
thumpy-ass high-heel pumping into a move that is draped in moss and mystery. I can
hardly wait to hear their track-by-track cover of Led Zeppelin II. I always thought
those songs would sound better sung by an actual woman. Know what I mean?"

"Beautiful new LP (the seventh, I believe), from this wonderfully abstract outfit,
who were birthed in the shadow of Smegma (Portland, OR), but have since relocated to
Maine. The foundational members of the band are Grant Corum (keyboards, vocals, tin
whistle, vocals) and Suzanne Stone (alto sax, khene, vocals). For this album, recorded
by Big Blood's Caleb Mulkerin, they are joined by Caleb himself (tape loops and
treatments) and Tom Kovacevic (piano and synth), both of whom played together back
in Cerberus Shoals. The quartet is hot. Even when it's a trio. The music has a blocked
-out and dreamy quality, with jazzoid touches and perhaps less of an ethnographic
quality than some of the band's work. But the music also exists in large chunks, which
are moved around in a way that almost recalls (strategically, if not sonically) groups
like Colorado's Mnemonists/Biota collective. There's a heavy and reflective quality
to all the sounds generated and how they are shaped. The album takes its title from
the work of the late visionary artist, Paul Laffoley, from whom the band learned many
lessons, and for whom the music stands as a sort of threnody. And the sounds here
seem to inhabit some of the same psychic space as Laffoley's work -- creating panels
of aural architecture with Mandalic balance and flow. Million Brazilians' music has
lots of depth and a shifting focus that makes it hard to identify as any particular
brand of music. But as Duke Ellington so elegantly put it, 'If it sounds good, it
is good.' And Urban Fossickated Octave sounds more than good. Take it from the Duke.
And then some."

"Here is the first physically graspable music available by this mysterious Western
Massachusetts duo, whose sound has been called 'Synthetic ASMR love balladry,' by more
than one canny listener. Asking them to describe themselves, we received this missive:
'Plants of the Bible started in a bedroom in Florence with a tape machine and a poem
about an unkillable dog android before it quickly spiraled out of control into a real
band with a real record. Their first album is a dreamy cast of imagined characters
and everyday events built with elaborately layered sounds. Driven by their array of
cheap keyboards and a wide range of influences from La Boheme to Fabio Frizzi to
Justin Bieber, their music is deceptively inviting and playfully disorienting. They
are currently working on an EP of hot songs and researching a more long-term project
about the history of lesbian porn.' Not sure what more we can add, except that,
according to inter-web sources, there are more than 120 plants mentioned in the Bible,
ranging from 'Abraham's Bush' to 'Wormwood.' If you need more information consult
a priest of some sort. If you need be confused in a way that involves wonderfully
deep hooks, get this album instead. Go ahead, all will be forgiven.
By actual plants!"

"Vinylization of a self-released cassette issued earlier this year by our favorite
Virginia-based guitar player. Witness Tree is a brilliant follow-up to Perry's
eponymous debut LP (FTR 376LP, 2018), and expands upon the form-abstractions he first
displayed there. Mr. Perry has a firm and solid touch to his string wrangling, but
unlike many of his contemporaries, he doesn't seem to feel compelled to resolve all
the melodic questions he raises. Perry often stops in a place he finds interesting,
repeating rhythmic figures while trying out variations on the note/chord sequence
that stopped him in the first place. It's a goddamn fascinating approach and allows
him to explore textual aspects of the acoustic guitar that are not investigated often
enough. In a certain sense, Perry's playing feels akin to that of Jon Collin's, since
both guitarists appear to acknowledge the American Primitive School, while approaching
its compositional orthodoxy with an attitude that substitutes experimental tendencies
for blues-base thinking. But the way they resolve these themes is quite different.
Perry's slower pacing and precise string selection eschews the aleatory for a kind
of mindfulness that is as invigorating as I usually find randomness. A deep and lovely
dig into the outer edges of acoustic guitar rambling."

"The aural pleasure created by this somewhat mysterious trio of London musicians
continues to accrue. After two fine self-released records (one a 7", th' other a 12"),
and the superb Drip Water Hollow Out Stone on the great Ever/Never label, Feeding
Tube is honored to present the Mosquitoes' latest assault on the temples of beauty.
The music on Vortex is of a piece with earlier recordings. By this, I mean there is
a wonderfully 'out' approach to basic rock instrumentation and vocals, which détourns
the basic assumptions listeners have about what rock instruments sound like. A good
number of bands have done this in the modern era, from This Heat to U.S. Maple, but
the only band the Mosquitoes continually call to my mind is late period Mars. That
NYC unit had pretty much destroyed conventions of song and structure by the time they
called it a day, and the instrumental/vocal mangling these guys do is equally
brilliant. They really take every piece of sound apart and put it back together in
a weird way. There are passages on Vortex that actually make me think of early Suicide
as well (I think they use amp-noise-loops to approximate Rev's keyboards), but none
of the music here has the aggression of Suicide. Instead, it projects a transcendent
sense of confusion that is as head-scratching as it is appealing. If you like your
music to be equal parts brains and power, you won't find many things more satisfying
than the music of the Mosquitoes. Every one of their records is great. And they just
keep getting better. How lucky for you."

FTR 468 NED COLLETTE/JAMES RUSHFORD/JOE TALIA : AFTERNOON-DUSK LP 09.2019
01. Ned Collette/James Rushford/Joe Talia : Afternoon
02. Ned Collette/James Rushford/Joe Talia : Dusk
"Ned Collette's last album, the 2LP set Old Chestnut (FTR 362-2LP), was hailed as
a masterpiece by 'most everyone who heard it. Part of this was due to the darkly
delicate lyrics and vocals of Ned himself (akin to the work of Graeme Jefferies, ca.
This Kind of Punishment), but much was also due to the elegant lyricism of the music,
which had a fantastic prog/folk heft as impossible to peg as it was to ignore. With
this new LP, Collette (an Australian ex-pat, now based in Berlin) goes all-instr.,
along with his long-time drumming partner, Joe Talia (fellow ex-pat, now in Tokyo),
and composer James Rushford (also from Australia) on viola. The two, side-long tracks
are a departure from the pop formatting of Old Chestnut, but an expansion of that
album's instrumental passages, playing with a syncretic fusion of several genres,
while remaining beholden to none. Talia -- who has been working with Collette for
over a decade, but is perhaps best known in the U.S. as Jim O'Rourke's drummer of
choice -- uses synths and tapes, apart from his deft touch with the tubs. Rushford's
work on viola is as idiosyncratic as you'd expect, given the evidence of his recordings
with Ora Clementi, Food Court, and others. Rushford does opt for more standard tactics
in spots, but his approach to long tones is not always clearly wrought by human hands.
Collette's playing on guitar, synth, bells and drum machine combines a clear affinity
with the trope of both 'new music,' and also with the artfully wrought dream-hybrids
of Old Chestnut's musical textures. This means that while the music on Afternoon-Dusk
may not be as immediately engaging, it also scratches some of the same itches as Old
Chestnut and will definitely reward listeners who spend time with its soaring sonic
inventions. The aspirations of Afternoon-Dusk are monumental, neo-symphonic and
spectacularly successful. You have been warned!" 2019 Edition of 300.

B4 Sunplash Your Mind 5:11
"Welcome to the second solo vinyl album by Jeffrey Alexander, best known these days
for the lysergic guidance he provides for SF's Dire Wolves. But Alexander has
underground roots that go far beyond his work with the Wolves. Back in the '90s,
when still based in Providence RI, he ran the Secret Eye label, helmed a couple of
superb acid-folk units and was the person most responsible for bringing not one, but
two editions of the Terrastock Festival to the city Lovecraft built. Since relocating
to the Bay Area, Alexander has spent a good bit of time turning Dire Wolves into one
of the most elegantly psychedelic bands on the scene, and has also managed to lend
an occasional splash of sound to Jackie O Motherfucker. And all of these different
arcs make themselves felt on Meditations for Beowulf. Buttressed by two tracks with
vocals, there are six instrumentals that explore many nooks and crannies of
experimental logic, running from the doodly keyboard larking of 'Turn Your Lights
Down Low' to the crackly, throbbing space-wheeze of 'Iridescent Clouds.' The two
vocal tracks have the lyrics printed on the back, so you can sing along if you like.
'Beowulf's Trip' has a stoned vibe that will make fans of the MVEE sound tingle deep
down in their souls. And 'Sunsplash Your Mind' is a sort of answer song to the well
known question, 'What was it like to do acid with John Lennon?' The answer is
especially intriguing because it posits that Lennon was able to predict the names
of Husker Du's three LPs for SST. And also that he could distinguish between and
actual LP and a mere mini-LP (Metal Circus) when doing his augury. Pretty damn hep.
As is rest of this splendid face full of smoke. Breathe deep. You'll be glad you did."

B1 Material Things...

B3 Noh Aria
B4 Endless Salad Buffet
"This first vinyl offering by a sporadically 20-something years unit, still extant,
originally assembled under the name Cinema Soloriens by filmmaker/musician James Harrar
in 1993, to play accompaniment to his films. The line-up usually includes legendary
Sun Ra alto master (and current Arkestra leader) Marshall Allen with Harrar (who is
also known for his work with Arthur Doyle and Daevid Allen), plus whoever else is
tapped. For this date, recorded in Nashville back in 2016, the quartet was completed
by a pair of under-documented musicians from the Atlanta underground - jazz
percussionist, Kenito Murray, and new music-oriented bassist, Maxwell Boecker.
Together, the quartet unspools out two side long gushes of splotchy pan-generic
FLOW. The music this stuff most resembles (if you really need a genre peg to hang
it on) is probably jazz. The blend of electronics and reeds certainly brings to mind
warped passages of many private press early '70s improv LPs, although most of those
ended up devolving into funky traffic jams. Anywhere on Aerials and Antennas, the
music starts to do something that might be described as 'simmering,' things quickly
get weird. A horn takes off for Saturn, a voice starts mumbling as though spare change
was just one prayer away, or the electronics emerge from wherever they were hiding to
begin alien discussions. Not sure if there was a film shown with this or not, but
the effect is cinematic. There's a great and blobby light show going on in my head
the whole time it plays, never quite deciding which direction its audacious motion
is headed, but always looking for an exit door otherwise hidden by the dull planes of
reality. Nice work. Aerial and Antennas makes for a gloriously stoned listen, as
mysterious in its motives as that second Charlie Nothing LP. And what the fuck was
that one about?"

Co-release with Shagrat Records. "Fifty years after her elegantly enchanting debut
LP, Ask Me No Questions, was issued by John Peel's Dandelion label, Bridget St. John
releases her first live vinyl. About time! In the intervening decades, Ms. St. John
issued four gorgeous LPs during the 1970s, then had a quiet spell after moving to
the U.S. In the '90s a sequence of crucial archival recordings on John Tobler's Road
Goes on Forever label, as well as Nigel Cross's peerless Shagrat imprint started
appearing. She began playing live again as well, appearing at Phil McMullen's Boston
Terrastock among other places. With the release of Live at the Betsey Trotwood, Bridget
demonstrates to all and sundry that her musical powers are undiminished. Beautifully
recorded at the Betsey in London, the set mixes newer originals ('Castaway',
'The Hole in Your Heart', etc.) with classics from her repertoire ('Fly High',
'Ask Me No Questions') and some lovely covers. These range from Joni Mitchell's
'The Fiddle and the Drum' segueing into a Trump-informed version of 'America the
Beautiful', to a sweet take on Michael Chapman's 'Rabbit Hills' (from Fully Qualified
Survivor). Listening to this set, I am actually reminded of Chapman (with whom Bridget
has been touring recently). Both of them seem to be ever advancing, their voices
growing richer and stronger as they accrue experience, the beauty and power of their
guitar playing diminishing not one whit. We are extremely honored to present a new LP
by Bridget St. John, and truly believe it will slay you as fully as it did us."

"Four decades after his last solo LP, Teenage Sex Therapist (FTR 153-2LP), Owen Maercks
is back with a new one. Crazily, much of the same gang is on hand for Kinds of Blue.
Guitarist Henry Kaiser was even the instigator of this project (as he so often is),
suggesting it was time for Owen to cut the blues album they'd always talked about.
Saxophonists Larry Ochs (ROVA) and John Oswald (Plunderphonics) are also back to blow
gorgeous squalls. There's a new rhythm section in town -- Doug Sovern on bass and
Scott Amendola on drums -- and they sound great, laying down whatever sounds are
required as a base for the most-cracked blues wailing of Owen's guitar and vocals.
The choice of cover tunes should be read as some sort of key. Lonesome Sundown's
"Love Me Now" replaces some of its original swamp vibe with an approach one might
liken to Bobby "Blue" Bland's sophisto-hunch. "Blue Monk" is a wonderfully fractured
spin on a par with Chadbourne's visits to the Thelonious songbook. And Robert Pete
Williams' "Wrong" hews to its original acoustic and violent intent, although it also
manifests a few lateral spasms that might have given its author gout. The originals
are similarly eclectic. "Wild Time" is a full-on blast of guitar-based zonkery.
"Burnin'" is Hooker shuffle that will have your foot stomping involuntarily. "Beautiful
to Me" is alternate universe songsterism in the vein of Sex Therapist. "Iceland
Boogie" is the first known blues song to tackle the topic of Reykjavik's archaic
gambling laws, using a somewhat Beefheartian framework to do so. And "Prayin' on Me"
finishes the album with an extended display of different ways to sing and play about
blowjobs, which should provide a template for any young band interested in the bj
genre. Is there a coda? You tell me. How many kinds of blue can one man have? The
varieties are endless, dear friends. And some of the best answers ever posited to
that question are now available on this handy platter."

"Eddie Flowers is a legend of the American rock sub-underground. Starting as an
Alabama-bound fanzine scribe back in the early '70s, Eddie drifted to Bloomington
to lend his presence to the Gizmos in the days before 'punk' was codified. Next,
he turned up in L.A., where he founded the legendary acid squawlers, Crawlspace.
Crawlspace was a thoroughly nuts collection of loosely rotating heads, who existed
from 1985 into the new century. They played few actual 'shows,' but still managed
to churn out endless documents of their music making. Still, Crawlspace's few vinyl
offerings are exquisitely fucked, and include some of the first heavy deployments
of Can-generated riff-pulsing heard anywhere on the scene. Anyway, L.A. has a way
of eating its children, and Eddie was darn near gobbled by the Sunshine Monster
before he was spirited away to Indiana by some old and solid friends. Once there,
he lost no time getting a new 'situation' together, and this album is its first
graspable evidence. The music created by The Wax-Lip-Swamp-Dub unit is thick with
acid-haze (generated by a real random assortment of instruments) and powered into
fields of Can-like glory by the superb drumming of Tyler Damon (previously heard
on (Manas III (FTR 330LP, 2017)). Eddie's vocals sprawl across the top of it all,
giving an entirely new meaning to R. Meltzer's phrase, 'blabbermouth lockjaw of
the soul.' The vocals here are all that, but they lay out like a beatnik rattlesnake
frying happily in the Texas sun. It is a beautiful trip. Hint to travelers: the
higher you fly, the better your view"

"The Lloyd Pack is a project the prolific Dan Melchior has taken in a variety of
directions. The band has been composed of various people, sometimes it's large,
sometimes it's small, and the music's nature has always been unpredictable. On
Holiday, recorded at various places and assembled in Raleigh, NC, is one of the Pack's
small format efforts. For most of the music the only players are Mr. Melchior and
vocalist Russell Walker (of the Pheromoans, among other bands). They are sometimes
joined by Dan's not-infrequent collaborator, Anthony Allman, and on one track by the
late Letha Rodman Melchior (once the drummer of Ecstatic Peace combo, Cell). And unlike
the Pack's last LP, 2015's faux-Afrique A Tribute (Amish), the music here is generally
low-key art-rock with somewhat raw characteristics. Of course, trying to cage
Melchior's music with mere words is always problematic. Even his most garage-y antics
always have a whiff of sophistication lurking somewhere, and his most dastardly
high-art moves always seem to have absurdist grooves built into them somewhere.
For On Holiday, The Lloyd Pack uses audio clips of what I assume to be the late
Kentish actor after whom it named (Roger Lloyd-Pack), but these introductions often
lead into dangerously riff-heavy cul-de-sacs where Walker lays down casual lyrics,
while Melchior spins music that usually begins in utter simplicity and ends up running
head first into a wall of blubber. Not really sure how he does it, but Dan has mad
alchemical chops. And it just kinda works out. In a way On Holiday with... is one of
the most generously balanced records Melchior has ever done. It often hovers in a
sweet spot somewhere between pop and dunt and art, like Rod Stewart's riding a bucking
boar in zero gravity. Or something. Regardless, you won't want to miss the spectacle.
And in a way, it's the perfect entree to the wide wild world of Daniel Melchior.
Welcome, friend."

FTR 493 LP ERIC ARN + JASMINE PENDER : HYDROMANCY LP 03.2020
A In Illo Tempore
B The Serpent Ophis
"Here is the third of our LPs documenting the new work of Vienna-based expatriate
guitarist, Eric Arn. The first was the solo Orphic Resonance (FTR 281LP), the second,
Paranza Corta (FTR 384LP), documenting duo work with Austrian guitarist Margaret
Unknown. And now the third features duet recordings with English avant garde cellist
Jasmine Pender, who also performs more noisily using the soubriquet, Rotten Bliss.
Pender and Arn first met at a 2018 festival in Krems, Austria. They played a duo
show soon after, and this recording session followed in August of that year, when
Ms. Pender was passing through Vienna. The blend of their instruments is a strange
and delicate meeting. The music involves a conversation of tonal improvising in which
the separation of the instruments (so different on the surface) manages to blend in
a way that component parts submerge fully into a sort of Third Mind-style musical
language. The material here is basically live and, according to Eric, 'lightly-edited,
no overdubs or post-processing.' The first side-long piece. 'In illo tempore,' is
a mosaic of layered sheets of sound, fitted together as they gently float through
space and time. The second side-long piece, 'The Serpent Ophis,' is a slowly built,
chiming, breathing mass of circular gesticulation that effortlessly rises to create
a shimmering, expanding plateau of sound. As with Eric's other LPs, Hyrdomancy is

"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 the scene both as a musician and a recordist, and
people were jazzed to check out his teenaged roots. But the pummeling racket created
by this two-man demolition squad -- with Robin on drums and his buddy, John Chadwick,
on guitar and vocals -- was way too much for the squares to handle. None of the era's
hep new wave labels knew what to do with the tapes either, so back into storage they
went. But Robin was pleased with the results of the Girls' Punk-Dada-Pulchritude LP
(FTR 220LP, 2012), and a year or so ago he asked if we'd be up for giving the tapes
a listen. My faulty memory banks recalled a band that mostly did covers (their versions
of 'Break on Through' and 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds' are both stuck deep in my
brain.) But Robin assured us that Two Much did mostly originals, and lo and behold
-- when the files arrived they were rich with crazy tunes the pair had written
themselves between the ages of 10-12 (Johnny) and 12-14 (Robin). Amazing! Many bands
then only had one 'original,' and it was usually a dull blues readymade. Two Much had
tons of short tracks that spoke directly to the heart of junior high desire, and also
managed to create a distorted, 6+ minute, political opus called, 'State of the Union
'68.' That track is so far from what you'd expect that it kinda DESTROYS in all
imaginable ways. Plus, in 'Who Says,' you get to enjoy the immense pleasure of hearing
a 12-year old sing, 'Most of my life I've been working/Slaving my life away/Working
in the king's mine fields.' Insane! Two Much's one session was recorded by Robin's
dad, in their living room, right before John Chadwick and his family moved from
Florida to California. Sadly, John and Robin fell out of touch over the years, but
the sound of Two Much is an eternal beacon of teenage truth & justice. Burning in
the dark suburban night of pre-Disney Orlando. We should all have back pages like
this!"

A5 Mountain Day Pt.2
B1 Lunchtime for Birdy
B2 Cool Mask
B3 Any Given Semblance Is A Miracle
B4 Maze Of Matter
B5 Secret Agent Song
"First graspable release by Leaf Peepers, a Massachusetts duo comprised of Turner
Falls' Omeed Goodzari and Worcester's Nick Bisceglia. Omeed is well-known hereabouts
as member of Donkey No No, and also for his solo recordings, which include the superb
Zoltar Hid All the Locks / Minnows LP (FTR 349LP, 2018). Nick has recorded with his
band Husks, and has also participated on sessions by Wendy Eisenberg and Chris Weisman
among others. In fact, the both of them helped out on Chris's last album, Romantics.
Be that as it may, the sound of the Leaf Peppers is located somewhere near the
orthocenter of these references. Because Omeed is present, there is a distinct whiff
of classic hippie paranoia, usually expressed via acoustic guitar figures that are
both simple and complex at the same time. Meanwhile, the vocals display lots of the
same weird pop displacement as the tuneage of Brattleboro's finest. Although it also
seems as if there's a lot of speed manipulation on the vocal tracks, so that sometimes
you'd swear you were listening to ghost-lassies singing about CIA operatives and monkey
glands and various other topics. But whatever speed you hear it at, Lunchtime for Birdy
is a trip. Rolling circles of guitar-chords, toots of the pan flute, with vocals and
lyrics that range from softly lyrical to something that recalls the ecstatic-chaos of
the Fugs. Prepare thyself to deal with lunch. As a miracle."

"A new reissue of this masterpiece by the Left Outsides, originally issued on cassette
in 2015, then first put to vinyl in 2017, as the long-format follow-up to the classic
The Shape of Things to Come LP. The current edition is demarcated by a glossy cover
and metallic gold printing. Its music remains as timeless a gust of dark autumnal
wind as any you'll ever hear. Some of the music here was written as part of the
soundtrack to Gus Alavrez's 2009 noir-pastoral short, Stand and Deliver, but the songs
evoke their own host of images. The band, consisting of Alison Cotton and Mark Nicholas
(once of the beautifully Fairport-tinged, 18th Day of May) blend vocals and stringed
instruments in a way that recalls more traditional UK folk artists as much as it does
their more acidic contemporaries. Their songs feature gorgeously plain melodies that
emerge as though they have always existed, before disappearing in a swirl of primeval
mist. The surprise cover they do, "Civil War Lament" (originally by Go-Betweens side
project, Jack Frost), is of a piece with these originals. And the layered guitars of
the last track, "The Creeping Fog," take the record out on waves of drone and feedback
stretching from dusk until near dawn, at which point, Alison intones a poem of shadows.
There Is a Place is a gentle monster of a record, and will well reward your careful
attention."

"Vinylization of last year's cassette by UK duo, The Slowest Lift. Comprised of
Julian Bradley (Vibracathedral Orchestra, etc.) and Sophie Cooper (whose Divine
Ekstasys LP, (FTR 342LP, 2018) is a dang classic), The Slowest Lift has been producing
high-quality avant-pop form-waffling for several years. Their eponymous debut album
was on VHF (2017), and Plutonic Shine continues their drive into the heart of some
very weird beast. Sophie's vocals sometimes breath like the air itself, although they
can also surface as distorted puffs of lung-powered color, melodically-oriented, but
trapped by no ordinary sense of song structure. The instrumental portion seems to be
built with electronics and guitars, which create mounds of sound for the vocals to
hide behind and dodge around. Although the sound is as 'now' as any hep cat could
wish. there is really very little to date this music archeologically. The basic tools
for what The Slowest Lift do have been around for decades. It is what Julian and
Sophie choose to do with these tools that will knock that beaver hat right off your
head. Gorgeous stuff."

"Wow! Great new LP by the full trio version of Maine's Big Blood. Colleen, Caleb,
and Quinnisa are all present and accounted for at every turn on this one! Unlike their
last LP, The Daughter's Union (FTR 459LP, 2019) (which seemed like some sort of
experiment involving glam-rock-readymades), Do You Wanna? is awash with crazily
re-imagined girl group dynamics. Some of these tight-sparkly-dress recreations have
a savage teenage authority, but others wiggle more like dreams stolen from the nodes
of Julee Cruise, Angelo Badalamenti, or David Lynch. Sometimes there are style-ghosts
standing in all the expected places, but none of them are behaving the way we'd expect.
But I do not wish to paint the sound here as monochromatic. There are many of Big
Blood's classic elements employed with trademark pluck -- witchy patches recalling
early Spires That in the Sunset Rise, small balloons filled with glitter & gas-pulses,
bubbling pools of pure psychedelic confusion. But the strange sophistication of
children wearing Diana Ross masks is something new. And it's such a mesmerizing
vision, I find myself paying extra attention to it. But then again, that's just the
surface. The lyrics here are of a piece with Big Blood's patented approach of creating
surrealist poetry in a rural and arrestingly original American style. Quinissa's
newly rampant influence seems to be grounding some of the lyrical imagery in more
quotidian scenes ('Insecure Kids,' etc.), but with the parental examples she's afforded
on a daily basis, this may just be a phase. But whatever else it is, Do You Wanna?
is another amazing spin from Big Blood. And there's even a poster you can pin on your
memory board. Talk about your win/win situations!"

"We're excited to release the debut solo LP by Matthew J. Rolin, currently a resident
of Columbus, Ohio. Rolin cut his teeth with garage and psych outfits in Cleveland,
appearing on vinyl by Shoreway and Nowhere before he found himself adrift and wandering
in the direction of Chicago at the end of 2016. Matthew had always been a fan of Jim
O'Rourke's brilliant Bad Timing LP (Drag City, 1997), and when he caught a set by
Ryley Walker soon after arriving in the city, he decided to throw himself into
developing his acoustic chops. Without really knowing much about the history or context
of the American primitive/concert steel string scene, he managed to create a
distinctive sound and approach to the instrument, owing less to the music's arts-blues
fundamentals than to the contemporary players who have expanded outward in all
directions from those initial impulses. Playing his first solo gig in Cleveland,
opening for Daniel Bachman, an audience member mentioned John Fahey to Rolin, but he
had no idea who the guy was talking about! The root-thread of Rolin's playing flows
more from Glenn Jones onward, through Rose and Bachman and Blackshaw and Walker and
Lane. I feel like I detect a 'Vaseline Machine Gun' urge towards Kotte-esque density
in certain spots, but maybe that's just me. Regardless, Rolin's talents as a solo
player (abetted only by Jen 'Donkey No No' Gelineau's violin on one track) are
immediately clear from the first note he plays. Matthew currently works both solo,
and in a duo with dulcimer player, Jen Powers. If you get a chance to see him don't
pass it up. Nor should you pass up this chance to score his first long player while
it's hot off the presses."

"Arrington de Dionyso first made his name with the crazed Olympia-based art rock unit,
Old Time Relijun. And I guess they still technically exist, but he has lately been more
involved with Indonesian musical investigations, and lots of overtly free jazz horn
aktion. Shouting Over Deep Water Blues was recorded by Henrik Lofgren in July 2012,
in a small boat floating off the coast of Sweden. It features five improvisations on
the Bromiophone with occasional liquid accompaniment provided by nature. Asked to
describe the Bromiophone, Arrington writes, 'After many years of intense focus on the
resonances and multi-phonic potentials of the bass clarinet, I decided to experiment
with an extended range PVC pipe instrument called the Bromiophone (after Bromios, the
thunder-roaring aspect of Dionysos in Greek mythology). As a modular instrument using
a bass clarinet neck and mouthpiece, the various tubes can be lengthened and shortened
according to improvisatory whim and wonder. The palms of the hands cover two open air
holes which can be modulated both with movement of the hands and variations in lung
pressure and mouthpiece embouchure to control the production of pitch, volume, and
most importantly variations in tone color.' We've heard lots of players from Chris
Corsano to Borbetomagus to Hen Bennink and onward use strange tubes to blow through,
but Arrington manages to play a wonderfully full recital here, combining the reed's
intonations with vocals recalling some of Arthur Doyle's Voice-o-phone experiments,
and small randomized percussion events. Some of the tone inventions initially have
a feel one often associates with members of the Netherland's Instant Composers Pool,
but Arrington has a stick-to-it-iveness that ultimately make the music seems as
American as it is freaked. If this is the Now Sound, I'll take it."

"A very whacked new outing from Baltimore keyboard genius Liz Durette. Her earlier
albums had a certain avant jazz approach, tempered perhaps by certain new music
proclivities. And while I do not doubt she still has the chops for such things,
Delight is a horse of an entirely different color. What's here was all done on
keyboards, but at times it sounds like insane calliope music for wicked children
with a taste for that old waltz beat. The whole first side could be the soundtrack
for a surreal film about dead Viennese courtiers high-stepping their way around the
Bardo as though it were a hedge maze. The more I listen to the record, the more
circular its matrix appears, and the less certain I am of the direction in which
gravity is pulling me. No surprise then, to learn that part of Delight's inspiration
was drawn from A Genuine Tong Funeral, Gary Burton's amazing '68 LP, comprised of
a full set of Carla Bley's wildest early compositions. On the flip, Durette is in
a similar fettle, but seems keener on exploring the faux percussive aspects of her
"axe."" This involves the simulation of little people tap dancing on a xylophone,
as well as very many other transgressive-if-meditative sonic activities. And they
are all done with such flair and attention to detail you really have to wonder what
sort of visions Liz has accessed. They seem to exist somewhere between romance and
math. The universe of sounds she creates on Delight is wildly complex, but also it
appears to operate by a set of congruous rules throughout. Like I said earlier,
GENIUS!"

FTR 506 DON DIETRICH OPTION LP 04.2020
A A
B B
"FTR is proud to present what is only the second solo album by Borbetomagus' sax
giant, Don Dietrich. Crazily, Option documents the FIRST solo performance Don ever
did. It was recorded in 2019 as part of the OPTION series in Chicago, where Dietrich
appeared at the invitation of Ken Vandermark (who also wrote the liner notes).
The cover photo shows one of Don's polycarbonate sculptures, after which the album
is partially named. Twisted, compressed, and strangely inviting, it is emblematic
of the eruptive ruckus Don creates using amplified tenor sax and effects pedals.
This music possesses some of the same cerebral overload as the sounds Dietrich
invents inside his long-lived trio. But without the specters of Jim Sauter's sax
and Donald Miller's guitar, the sonic envelope here feels somehow less hermetic.
There are no sneak attacks from his brothers about to happen. The shape of the solo
improvisations here are under his control. The pedals allow Don to make all sorts of
un-sax-like textural moves. A few spots bubble down into solo electronics that would
not be out of place on a Basil Kirchin LP. But most of Option has a crazy flow,
constantly bending and folding back on itself, in order to make the sound richer
and darker. Like a black hole star, Don sometimes seems to be pulling raw sounds
out of the air towards himself. It's a totally wild process, and something we hope
you will enjoy, before you file this title as a JAZZ record. Which Don says is where
it belongs. And who are we -- really -- to argue?"

"Vinylization of an insane and legendary CDR that Nashville's Cherry Blossoms
collective issued when they did a 2007 tour of Upper and Lower Rangoon with Josephine
Foster as a special guest member. The Cherry Blossoms are a musical entity not easily
described, but I feel as though their essential whatsis was grasped by Michael Hurley.
We were talking a few weeks ago and when the Blossoms were mentioned, Mike said,
'Oh Yeah. I remember the last time I played a gig with those guys. Their van pulled
up, and each of them got out, already playing an instrument and singing, and each
of them was doing a different song.' And so it is here. This is a blend of roots
music unimaginable to the average No Depression type listener. Various threads of
beauty are woven together into a tapestry of such psychedelic magnitude you can barely
comprehend the individual elements. Listening to this album one hears a blend of Pindar
Family-style Bahamian ecstasy, slightly tipsy Protestant psaltery, jump rope songs,
and just the sort of rag-taggery that Snock described. Josephine's distinctive voice
is deep in the mix sometimes, at others it emerges for semi-solo highlighting. And
the whole thing is a thoroughly provocative series of unfolding wonders. So sad you
missed the tour. So glad we could help."

iji (pronounced "ee-hee") is songwriter Zach Burba's tenured, pop coalition. Bred in
Phoenix and fully flowered in Seattle, iji has been touring the American underground
for 14 years, releasing a countless number of beloved LPs and tapes and pressing pause
only for Zach to join the roving swarms of friends like Mega Bog, Dear Nora, and Clyde
Peterson, whose Torrey Pines film (2016) featured a live touring soundtrack by Zach
and others. iji, their self-titled 11th release, is a crucial wander through a gummi
jungle that thrums with living things. When it came time to record, iji live band
alums Jake Jones (drums), Will Murdoch (bass), Evan Easthope (guitar), Tyler Martin
(synths), Erin Birgy (vocals), and Jade Tcimpidis (vocals) lined up to help alongside
a large number of friends, guests, and new collaborators including Zach's dad, David
Burba (who plays harmonica on the opening track). Zach also recruited collaborators,
James Krivchenia (Big Thief) and Erin Birgy (Mega Bog) to engineer and co-produce
respectively, with eternal heroes like Arthur Russell, Laura Nyro, Peter Ivers, and
Squeeze swimming in the clouds above. Although iji consistently slips from genre
assignment, it has been an earnest pop experiment since its inception. The dancing
procession of iji albums have reliably been about goofing, dreaming, love, and
adventures through both inner- and outer-space, with lyrics and arrangements that
sparkle with good-natured self-awareness. The theme of movement -- necessary, joyful,
and dizzying -- zigs through the record, most notably with the minty-blue "Faster",
and duet "In Motion", featuring vocals from fellow road dog Greta Kline (Franky
Cosmos). Present, too, are the loss and loneliness that come with endless flux,
whether it's in feeling alone-together in the social anxiety warble "Party's Turn",
missing old kinship of absent pals ("Where Are You?"), accepting bewilderment at your
own reflection ("I Don't Ever Wanna Go Back", "Lizard", "Much Oblige"), or even in
singing a requiem for a favorite tape whose warped reels can't light the brain like
they used to ("The Ultimate in Relaxation"). Other songs are stories told in harmony
with these ideas; an artist's performative self wriggles out of being truly known in
"Something to Say", we stop to gawk at the dude within ("Chewing"), and thumbs twirl
in the sunny one-room cottage of "Salmon Ladder". The album's synaesthetic palette,
pocked and splashed with noises, is a direct nod to iji's relationship with visual
art. One of Zach's paintings appears on the cover and is, quite literally, a still
life of the music. Includes lyric sheet and download code; edition of 500.

FTR 513 MAKO SICA & HAMID DRAKE : BALANCING TEAR LP 04.2020
A1 Trapeze
A2 The Unknown
B1 Enchanted City
B2 Trapeze / Maku (Live)
"A glorious re-match for Chicago's superb free-rock trio, Mako Sica, and the jazz
world's percussionist of choice, Hamid Drake. Their last collaboration, Ronda
(FTR 409LP, 2018) was a glorious, open-ended studio conversation spread across two
LPs. Balancing Tear is a mix of studio and live recordings, awash with calmly oceanic
passages, interspersed with compressed and feverish form-blurts. As with Ronda, the
heft of the material is dynamically advanced. The album begins with passages worthy
of Morricone's western soundtracks, but the action mutates with rapid surety.
There's a track that will make you think of a micro-dosed Vic Damone singing balled
for the Sephardic Justice Society with chunky, obtuse piano accompaniment recalling
the work of Chris Abrahams (Necks). There are stretches of proggy soundtrack-y
expansion with muted trumpet and deep bass roiling that make me think of Mark
Cunningham's superb electro-jazz combo, Blood Quartet. There are even shadows of
tango that emerge in places like sharks' fins breaching. Having played together as
much as they have over the intervening years, Hamid's presence inside the overall
gestalt of the sound is a natural fit. Mako Sica's sound expands without making it
seem like there's a new element grafted to it. It's just bigger and better. As all
freedom should be."

"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 Music were
recorded during 2015-2017 and represent another fine sideways style leap by this
highly discordian trio. Musically the attack, as usual, makes me think of someone
playing a bunch of Siltbreeze records on top of each other, and mixing in shards of
the Dept Store Santas for good measure. People often mention the Stooges when talking
about Mordecai's approach, but their sound is raw in a whole different sort of way.
It demonstrates an actual ability to play coherent tunes in the manner of sub
underground South Island kiwis, but twists violently away from any sort of formal
acknowledgement of 'song' as a necessity in performing music. Which makes me suspect
the version of the Stooges Mordecai most closely resembles is the legendary vacuum
cleaner/golf-cleat iteration of the psychedelic Stooges no one ever bothered to
record. What Mordecai does can sound pretty random, but because of the clues they
occasionally cough up in the middle of their tunes, one suspects they are as well
versed in the arcana of Columbus OH as they are in Dunedin's. And that the whiffs
of late '70s freak bands (from Doors and Windows to Destry Hampton and the Lone
Wolves from Hell) are not arbitrary or capricious. They're just tributes to all the
wild mooks who preceded them into the tunnels of despond. Library Music. It's a great
record."

The Eighteenth Day of May were a six-piece, London based group. Originally formed
as an acoustic trio consisting of American Alison Brice (vocals, flute), Swede
Richard Olson (acoustic guitar, harmonica, sitar), and Ben Phillipson (guitar,
mandolin), they combined elements of traditional and contemporary folk with a
psychedelic jangle. They spent the summer and autumn of 2003 bonding over Fairport
Convention, The Incredible String Band, Steeleye Span, Sandy Denny, and Trees all
blending in with the psychedelic music they already loved which was feeding into
their home demo recordings. In early 2004 they went electric adding the rhythm
section of Mark Nicholas (bass), and Karl Sabino (drums, autoharp) and then lastly
ex-Saloon player Alison Cotton (viola). It was after appearing on a cover mount disc
for the much missed It Comes With A Smile Magazine that Andy Childs (Head of Hannibal
Records/RYKO) fell in love with the band and continued the path of fellow legendary
Hannibal head Joe Boyd's policy of signing eclectic artists. Back in 2004 it felt
like no one was making music like this -- old weird folk songs, Americana, original
psych folk, minimalist drones via great melodies, and eclectic instrumentation.
The result was a joyous, unfettered, fluid sound that in one moment could conjure
up flashes of The Byrds or Fotheringay and then minutes later the spirit of The Velvet
Underground would drift though the music. Live they would even cover artist from
Spacemen 3 and The Brian Jonestown Massacre to Buffy Saint Marie to traditional folk
songs and would not be afraid to stamp their own identity on them. When it comes to
recording their first (and only) LP, they were teaming with ideas and enthusiasm,
buoyant from the attention of artists like Robyn Hitchcock and Peter Buck with whom
they toured. The LP some 15 years later has not dated one bit, as with all good music
its qualities and resonance have matured and endured, its subtleties have become more
apparent and beguiling. maybe 2005 just wasn't ready for a band playing contemporary
English folk music. Added onto to this retrospective release are several excellent
extra tracks, some of which were recorded for a second album that they were never able
to complete. Hard to imagine it would have been even better than the first but listen
to the tracks recorded and you can only feel sadness that it never happened.

Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records present the napalm blast that is the forthcoming
new Banshee record, Livin' In The Jungle. Hailing from Boston and blazing red hot
cinders through your eyes Banshee channel widescreen, kick out the jams motherfuckers
psyche-rock-a-rama with a singer doing his best to channel both Alice and Iggy. Yes,
they rock like crazy and play with the fired-up fury of The Stooges, MC5, and The Alice
Cooper Group as they let their freak flag fly. On Livin' In The Jungle, Banshee
detonate over 11 tracks of pure diamond arrangements that will lay you out flat and
have your head swirling from the wallop of the sleazy voodoo racket that Banshee have
created. Informed in equal parts by the intensity of '60s Detroit and The Alice Cooper
Group and with a rhythmic underbelly the calls on in parts the funk explosion of War.
From the opening Intro of "Genesis" amid a barrage of bells, chimes jungle sounds, and
a group feeling the funk they lay straight into "The Law" where without missing a beat
and over a blast of guitar riffs, dive bombing bass lines, thunderous drums and a voice
that spits out and caterwails with a vengeance you find Banshee freewheelin' into what
will become your favorite rock'n'roll LP for the year 2020. The engine has started and
the whole record is executed at a breakneck pace that is a furious rollercoaster ride
to sweet oblivion. On the final epic sprawl that is "Caged Birds" which starts out with
a garage like "Sister Ray" bump'n'grind chug before descending into a glorious meltdown
of fuzzed-up wah-wah guitars and glockenspiels before everything finally fades back
into the jungle. Livin' In The Jungle is one rabid rock'n'roll animal of a record.

Flow & Heady, the stunning new record from Dire Wolves Just Exactly Perfect Sisters
Band, captures the group flying high at the height of their powers. Recorded live at
the "Festival Of Endless Gratitude" in Copenhagen, and released jointly on Cardinal
Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records, this beautifully packaged LP documents some of the
band's 2019 European Tour. For these dates, the Dire Wolves were joined by Nik Rayne
of The Myrrors (guitar and clarinet) and Bell Lungs from Scotland (violin, voice,
and birds), each adding potent textures to the collective's deep sonic glossolalia.
The music Dire Wolves create is what they call "Cosmic Free Rock" as via amplified
instrumentation they summon a sound that pulls at psych, kosmiche, acid folk, and
spiritual jazz. Fans of Trad, Gras Och Stenar and Amon Düül II will easily get lost
in these zones, as droning violins, fuzzed acid guitars, and wordless floating angelic
vocals (that nod towards Rentate Knaup) are propelled by a rhythm section that knows
exactly how to not overplay as they create the hypnotic essence from which Dire Wolves
drift away. The raw overblown recording, a la White Heaven, becomes an Instrument unto
itself, placing you squarely in the moment with the group, amidst the swirling
transcendent improvisation. This is a heavy record. This is psychic rock for the mind
and body. Close your eyes, breathe deep and get lost in Flow & Heady.

"Music doesn't have to be self-expression, but for Ryan Power that's the only way
it can be. Every note, melody, turn of phrase, and point of view in Power's carefully
crafted songs is intravenously infused with his particular way of moving through the
world. It's a curious, probing, never-satisfied mode; he's always searching for the
perfect combination of chords, the most precise arrangement of words, the most
complete capturing of a mood. As one song on his eighth album Mind the Neighbors
puts it, his songs are 'dreams on the run' -- part of an exhilarating chase for
elusive ideals. That chase leads to some wonderfully weird discoveries. On the
wind-blown 'The Slime', sweetened tones inspire surreal visions: 'your feet are
burning on thoughts of coal / slowly seeping through the walls of your soul.'
Whitetail deer and tectonic shifts get equal footing in the breezy sway-rock of
'Spirit Animal', which takes place during 'pot therapy at brain camp'. And in the
deliberate, meditative 'Breathe Deep John', a robot turns into a human but feels
like a mirage: 'Everybody wants to see the monster,' Power hums. 'So everyone's out
getting wrecked.' Those kinds of inimitable reflections put Power's personality all
over the music on Mind the Neighbors. But these tunes are not without precedent:
his own obsessions with Brazilian music -- particularly Bossa nova -- as well as
jazz (a form in which he's trained) and folk all flutter through his songs, and
you can hear some remnants of '60s French pop careening around as well. But Power's
been at this for almost 20 years, and any echoes you might hear in Mind the Neighbors
are merely intriguing footnotes to the autobiography his music continues to write
with precision and, yeah, power. You don't want to miss this chapter."

"The fourth album that Samara Lubelski and Marcia Bassett have recorded as a duo
-- the second for us, following 2017's Live NYC (FTR 302LP) -- is much less about
drones than some of their previous work. Morning Flare Symmetries blares like a ram's
horn blown as a call to angelic battle. Everyone has been unanimous in agreement
that this improvising duo has achieved a new highpoint in the musical histories of
both Samara and Marcia. They each have deep roots in the East Coast sub-underground,
with a whole dang lot of band names between 'em, but in this configuration they just
continue to get weirder and better on every outing. The string blend they manage to
invent is a hugely psychedelic wave that washes over everything in its path. And when
you're enveloped in its massive flow, you are hauled along by sonic forces that are
way beyond your control. Some parts are soothing, others are eruptive, but they work
a really amazing push-pull on your brain, so that the individual sections don't feel
competitive so much as complimentary. Like thousands of tiny thumbs urging your
spirit to free itself? Sure, why not? I absolutely encourage you to check out all
of their albums. but this new one is a particular killer, so maybe you ought to start
right here."

London's kings of noise Sly & The Family Drone follow up their 2019 Love Love LP
Gentle Persuaders with Walk It Dry, an eight-track LP collaboratively released by
Love Love Records in the UK and Feeding Tube Records in the USA. Walk It Dry utilizes
the familiar sound palette of scronked electronics, bulging noise blasts, wailing
sax, and 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 sonic pockets. Bolstered with a directional
force rare in this strain of noise the album begins at the deep end with "A Black
Uniformed Strutting Animal", a raucous cacophony backed by a thick groove, before
the bleeps and bloops of "Dead Cat Chaos Magician" kick in, sounding like a haunting
in the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. "Swearing On The Horns" is a folk-sludge ditty
scraping through a psychic wormhole that exits at the feet of "Bulgarian Steel"
-- a grimacing march punctuated with metallic screams where the sax becomes an
overstressed alarm siren. "Shrieking Grief", with its rapid fire drum rolls and
megaton payloads of pummeling noise, concludes the A side loudly. Side B opens with
stretched-out droning layers and winding loops on "Sunken Disorderly", providing
a gloomy refuge for some cosmic meditation. The album at this point converges into
the morbidly fascinating black-and-white horror of "My Torso Is A Shotgun", perhaps
the most widescreen and immediate example of the band's progression, before playing
out with the deathly lament of "Tsukiji". A suitable soundtrack to the end-times.

"We discovered the experimental work of the late Letha Rodman Melchior through her
husband Dan. Our first release was the amazing Mare Astrale LP (FTR 432LP, 2019),
and we have now reissued 2009's Treteman as an LP. Tretetam was actually the operating
handle Letha originally used for her sound collages. And this music was first issued
on CDR as Tretetam's eponymous debut for the Finnish Ikuisuus label. A few other
releases appeared under this soubriquet before she began using her own name on such
projects. Letha displays her absolutely original approach to musique concrete from
the very beginning of her investigation of the form. Using field recordings, found
sounds and invented instrumental passages, she creates bizarre landscapes blending
natural and synthetic elements into a seamless whole. Then she tales our hand and
leads us through the maze with whispers of comfort echoing across the boundless
spaces. The journey she leads is as intoxicating as any you'll ever take. Close your
eyes and lean back into it and just go... you can thank us later. Incredible."

FTR 524 POWER/ROLIN DUO POWER/ROLIN DUO LP 05.2020
A1 Endless Window
A2 Caterwauls
B Ageless Phase
"Hot on the heels of last year's Matthew J. Rolin LP (FTR 502LP, 2019), here is a new
duo recording featuring Rolin's acoustic twelve-string and the hammered-dulcimer of
Jen Powers. They've had a couple previous cassettes, but I've never seen 'em! If you
have, I can offer you something fine in trade. As with his first LP, Rolin's command
of his guitar is quite wonderful to hear. He uses the whole breadth of the twelve
string's harmonic potential, which creates a wide surging stream of sound. Powers'
work with the hammered dulcimer (an instrument we hear far too rarely these days!)
utilizes a similar approach, which means we are afforded access to wide aural river
into which we can dip our aching heads. A more soothing splash will be hard to find.
Matt and Jen have been playing together since early 2018, when Rolin relocated from
Chicago to Columbus, where they are now based. They've also worked as a trio with
Jayson Gerycz playing singing bowls and like, but the tape of that session has
eluded me thus far as well. Still, this duo record is a wonderful dive into their
sound. The music is open and upful and filled with a kind of joy that seems in short
supply these days. Recorded by Lisa Bella Donna (of the great underground prog band,
EYE), mastered by Brian Sulpizio (Ryley Wakler's guitarist of choice, among other
things), the debut LP by the Powers/Rolin Duo is an object of power and beauty.
Let it shine, motherfucker. Let it shine."

Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records release Naujawanana Baidar's Volume 1 & 2 as
a double-LP vinyl. Naujawanan Baidar (Farsi for Enlightened Youth) is the project of
artist and musician N.R. Safi (The Myrrors). With roots in the now-endangered sounds
of 1960s-80s Afghan cassette culture, Naujawanan Baidar filters the traditional music
of Safi's paternal heritage through a labyrinth of buzzing drones, tape manipulation,
and fuzz-drenched percussion, warping both traditional and popular forms into a tangled
mass of tape-saturated noise inspired by the very medium that once carried them.
Traditional folk instruments (both acoustic and home-amplified) like the rubab,
armonia, sorna, and tabla, twist and melt into blown-out electrical storms, proving
that one does not necessarily need guitars or any other standard western
instrumentation to channel the trance-like energy of rock and roll. Although the
end results may sound far removed from the original artists that helped inspired
them (legendary performers like Ahmad Zahir, Beltoon and Hamidullah, or Salma Jahani)
there is something to be said for this "new" or "imagined" form of contemporary Afghan
experimental music. Had the dusty backstreets of pre-war Kabul birthed an experimental
music scene paralleling German's krautrock movement, one can imagine that the results
might have sounded a little something like this. These tracks were cut over the course
of 2017 to 2019 as a sort of sonic notebook, documenting the evolution of the project
as it first took shape. Though the majority were originally conceived of as nothing
more than demos or impressionistic sketches, the spontaneous and ramshackle approach
of the tapes was eventually deemed more than befitting the spirit of the project.
Naujawanan Baidar both reaffirms its ties to a relatively hidden (to outside eyes at
least) cultural history while at the same time pushing outwards into new and unexplored
territories. Originally released via Radio Khiyaban on cassette (the packaging and
artwork on both cassette releases was a direct homage to 1970s Afghan tape design).

"Hot on the heels of last year's drone masterpiece, The Free Territory, comes this
hot bowl of noodles from Manchester's most elegantly wasted quintet. And while there
might be apt comparisons to be made to some of the best current psych purveyors,
the central thrill provided by these sounds makes me think of naught but prime Bay
Area ballroom scene acid spew. The guitar lines unspool like electrical cables filled
with acid punch, and remain crackling in the air for moments longer than you imagine
they can remain afloat. The keys have a bit of a German overtone, but it's the same
sort of one that led to the flash of Popol Vuh's United Artist albums (which are
themselves, at heart, paeans to the Bay.) The sound here is the sort of thing true
believers recall as the highest moments of Man in live concert flight. Raging, raving
guitars to soak your soul once and for all. Don't fear the downpour. Revel in it."

"Over the many years we've known each other, Joe Carducci had several times mentioned
his brother Mark had a cool band back in the pre-punk '70s. Then a couple of years
ago, he added that tapes of this project were around, and asked if might we be
interested in hearing them. Midknight 1975 is the result. Two different line-ups of
the band are documented here -- a quintet studio session recorded on location at the
Hippie House, and a live one with a different drummer and one less guitar -- and both
are wailing, raw instrumental dives into what you'd have to call hard underground
prog. There are some 'chops' displayed, but they're usually more in line with stuff
like Hawkwind, the Pink Fairies, and Third World War than something more delicate.
It's just great, driving, drug-fueled noise from the Chicago suburbs. Here's what Joe
wrote, when I asked him for a few words on the band. 'When Jimi Hendrix died In 1970
the Tribune put him on the cover of the Sunday Arts section and my Grandma, who lived
with us, asked me if Hendrix could possibly deserve such an honor -- she wrote Dick
Locher a fan letter when he had Dick Tracy unmask hippies as criminal degenerates.
Mark named his band after the greatest tune on any of those, the instrumental
'Midnight' from the War Heroes album. The 'K' got added to the name soon after,
I suspect at my suggestion, but luckily nobody can remember. MidKnight mostly just
practiced in our basement . . . If I was home when they played out at a school or
church I would go to record them on Mark's 4-track reel-to-reel. I remember that
certain passages in their music would inspire the girls in the audience to start
dancing, but then the time signature would change and the girls would stop and try
to get their bearings all over again. I quit college and moved to Hollywood in the
fall of 1976 and though I wasn't connected to any scene there I tried to convince
Mark to move his band out; rent was cheap and it seemed that something was bound to
happen. But they'd all graduated from high school and gone separate ways." That said,
this is the documentary evidence Midknight left behind. There were bands something
like this all over the States in those days, but I can't think of any I ever saw in
high school or college auditoriums back then who had the good sense to play without
a lousy singer. Without some Robert Plant wannabe simpering over the top, you can
get a real sense of how wild their sound was..."

"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 413LP, FTR 437LP, FTR 438LP) and Wednesday's
two albums with Weeping Bong Band (FTR 313LP, FTR 448LP) have slain stoned listeners
across the globe. Wednesday is also one of the founding members of the great Pigeons,
and if you don't know their music, you should correct that pronto. Anyway, Willie
plays guitars, Wednesday plays electric guitar, alto saxophone, flute and even adds
a little voice at one point if I'm not mistaken. And the blend is awesome. Gently
improvised melodic nuggets that make me think of everyone from John Renbourn to Spires
That in the Sunset Rise. The sounds flow so wonderfully it's hard to believe they
haven't been playing together for a while. But hey, when a concept works. It just
does. And this one works like a very strong pony! Long Time 'Til Tomorrow was
originally released by Jason, in a digital format, on his Natch imprint.
Now it's available to a wider audience. There will be more titles in the Drowned
Land series coming soon. So keep your ears peeled."

late '70s, Narita is a Japanese psychedelic underground legend. After playing in cult
bands like Kyoaku no Intention, he founded the brutal heavy-psych power trio High
Rise in the '80s and more recently Green Flames with his furious guitar playing, which
involves lethal doses of fuzz-wah at ear-splitting volume. Narita was lucky to be in
the right place in Tokyo to see many performances by one of the most out of control
guitar players ever to handle six strings in Takashi Mizutani (Les Rallizes Denudes)
as well as taking in wild performances from Keiji Haino, Gaseneta, and their take no
prisoner maelstrom is a style that Munehiro holds dear too. When Munehiro Narita
needed a band for playing four west coast dates in 2017, Steve Krakow knew that LA
acid punk David Jasso (OGOD) would be the perfect musician/foil for Narita (it should
be noted that David released Green Flames on his Assommer label). David in turn knew
drummer TJ. Six tracks were quickly nailed in rehearsals -- a selection of High Rise
(four) and Green Flames (two) tunes were then played over the four dates. The shows
left audience stunned (listen to the reaction from this show) and by the time of the
San Francisco show they were on fire. Luckily, Ethan Miller was there to press record
and document this feral in the red paint peeler of a gig as Munehiro Narita peels
off wah soaked fireballs on top of the primal throb and groove that David Jasso and
TJ lay down. Another of the hopefully famed Cardinal Fuzz bootleg style releases,
Narita's guitar playing out front in the mix distorting and warping time and space
The whirlwind take on closing number "Pop Sicle" perfectly captures the wild fury
of all three musicians creating an energy that is impossible to sedate. Ethan Miller
somehow managed to capture and record some of the most brutal playing in prime tape
saturated / in the red glory for you know to relive. The positivity of these shows
eventually led to all three members forming P.S.F. and their debut LP was released on
Black Editions in 2019 (BE 1003LP). Full size/color insert; includes download code;
edition of 500.

"Michael is the third LP we have done with Boston-based musician, Joseph Allred.
The first, O Meadowlark (FTR 451LP, 2019) was a suite for guitar and banjo. For its
follow-up, Traveler (FTR 491LP), 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 only emerged after the music was recorded. Allred compares
the process of divining narrative content form musical improvisation to 'throwing
an inkblot on paper.' I can dig it. All of the instruments as acoustic -- harmonium,
autoharp, singing bowls, dulcimer, bowed guitar -- and the overtones and interplay
on surfaces here is unbelievably rich. And even though they're connected, the
individual tunes flow from different head spaces. 'Ascent + Return' is long-tone
meditation, conceived for harmonium, singing bowls & autoharp soon after Allred
performed a Tony Conrad piece as part of the big MIT Conrad exhibit. 'Every Thing
in the Dim Night' (a random quote from Whitman's Blades of Grass) lies midway between
that and a string improvisation with Indian tonalities. 'O Death' follows the original
Lloyd Chandler lyrics (originally entitled, 'A Conversation with Death'), before
evolving into swells of drone and strum. And so on. Each piece different, but expanding
the boundaries of the drone-based universe has created for this album. Joseph Allred's
music is an always evolving, constantly astounding wonderment. His live shows are
quite otherworldly, but we're sure you'll find his records equally transportational.

"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, 2018. 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 really just another kind of reward. Interestingly,
while the playing here is nothing like Loren Connors's, Collin begins to vocalize
along with his guitar lines in places. He also employs a good bit of rough string
sliding, both of which were features of Connors's very early work. This suggests
they two share parallels in terms of thinking that are deeper than mere style.
Jon's melodic inventions remain as open-ended as they have ever been, but he has
begun to add an extra chiming element ay the end of some lines. It almost sounds
like he's using a small harp, but I'm guessing it is not. Just another stone in
the path Jon Collin is following, ever deeper into the forest of his imagination.
His most gorgeous album yet."

"What's round on the ends and high in the middle? Why, the new LP by those proud
Buckeyes, Sex Tide, of course. Ohio is the first album they've recorded with a full
quartet line-up. Bassist Phillip Park and saxophonist Ryan Mcauley join the core duo
(drummer/vocalist Aurelie Celine and guitarist Chris Corbin) to create a new fat-ass
sound that continually conjures up visions of the 1970 Stooges. As with the previous
Sex Tide LPs we've done -- Possession Sessions (FTR 325LP, 2017) and Flash Fuck
/ Vernacular Splatter (FTR 436LP, 2019) -- a lot of the vibes here are generated
by Aurelie's relentless pounding and reckless vocals, along with Chris's truly
unhinged guitar. With Park's bass holding things down in an entirely new way, and
Mcauley's alto wailing for the ghost of Steve Mackay, Celine and Corbin are allowed
the freedom to go even further out than usual. And this is a challenge neither of
them can pass up. The new width of Sex Tide's sonic contextualism is evident from
the start. 'Everything That Happens in the Dark' is outlined by blasted saxophone
lines and riven down the middle by a bass line as thick as the trunk of a Buckeye
(the state tree of Ohio.) And if the start of 'State Medical Board' doesn't make you
think of a Funhouse-era remake of 'Real Cool Time,' you better sit down and have a
cold compress. Once your bean is chill, you might well be able to appreciate the
wildly crunching ebb and flow of the four tunes on side one. It's a massive event.
And the flip is even more amazing, if you ask me. Over a bottom resembling the one
created when the Cramps broke open the bones of Bo Diddley and Link Wray, things start
with a freaked-out blues wail, before lurching into a something like a distended
re-imagination of 8-Eyed Spy's version of Nancy Sinatra's 'Lightning's Girl.'
The music just goes on riffing and wiggling from there, and the whole side flows
together like a hot lava sundae from the volcano of your choice. And 'experts' may
tell you the last volcanic activity in Ohio was back in the Devonian Period, but
I suggest you fuck both them and the horse they rode in on. Ohio is nothing if not
a large scale and very molten happening."

A A Piece of Luck, Not to be Despised
B The Slipping Word
"FTR is tickled pink to present the second album in the Drowned Land series, a group
of recordings selected by Jason Meagher from recordings made at his Black Dirt Studio.
Les Conversions are the trio of Dave Shuford, Pat Murano, and Jason himself, three
musicians first recognized for their work with the legendary No Neck Blues Band.
Their first two LPs, Les Conversions (KEL 015LP, 2013) and Snowwhite (Holidays Records,
2013) were recorded during a single 2011 session and both brim with long form no rules
brain fucking that is damn hard to put your finger on. Suffice to say that of all the
countless projects associated with NNCK, Les Conversions are in some ways the closest
to tapping the same endlessly fluxible root. The session for Cassette went down in
2017. Pat mixed the album, and Jason released it on his Microdose tape label in an
edition of 20 or so. Nice to know it will now get a few more ears stuck to its
shimmering curves, because the music on Cassette is full flowing freakery. As Jason
says, 'We consider this, not paisley swirly doo-dah, to be psychedelic music.' And
it's hard to argue with that while the two sidelong tracks crawl under your skin and
begin broadcasting weird signals to your brain. There are riffs and pulses present
throughout the music, but there is also a sense of true freedom that is beholden to
none of the usual form-anchors. Making this one of the nicest soundtracks for
hallucinogenic shuffling I've heard in a dog's age. Just what the doctor ordered!"

"Pleased as punch are we to be reissuing Michael Hurley's long-lost 1984 album, Blue
Navigator. Admittedly, Secret Seven and Mississippi collaborated on a dandy 8-track
version a decade ago, but the record has mostly been available as an obscure import
CD -- if at all -- for many a year. The reason for this is that the Rooster Records
HQ burned down in 1987, taking master tapes, extra covers and whatever else there
was with it. This was a general bummer, but especially so for us Hurley fans, since
his final LP with Rounder was Snockgrass in 1980, and he didn't hook up with
Fundamental to do Watertower until 1987. The disappearance of Blue Navigator from
this earth left a sizable hole. Which we'd now like to think has been plugged.
Recorded with a cast of Northern Vermont hepcats including guitarist Jon Weber
(of Dan Hicks' original Hot Licks), head Rooster William Wright on guitar and
mandolin, Nancy Beavan on vocals, Gordon Stone on pedal steel and various other
goners, all playing some sweet rural swing displaying exactly how Hurley became the
toast of the snowmobile club circuit during his days in the North Country. A mix of
old favorites -- 'Werewolf,' 'Open Up (Eternal Lips)' -- new favorites -- 'Code of
the Mountains,' 'Ghost Woman Blues' -- and even a re-write -- 'Blue Navigator' --
it's a great, very casual sounding session, revealing more layers the more you
listen. The instrumentation varies a lot between tunes, but the music always flows
with Snocky grace and assurance. For this reissue, Michael has written a set of
illustrated liner notes that scoot around just the way his conversation does on a
long car ride. Which makes me miss the open road as much as anything else today.
Just close your eyes, sink back into the music on Blue Navigator and pretend you're
drifting through the hills and valleys of the Green Mountain State on your way to a
cold growler of beer. You'll soon feel like a million bucks. Promise!"

"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, and an all-around nice fellow besides being a killer guitarist. He said he'd
get in touch when he had something together that might make a good LP, and we are
proud to present the results. Organize or Die is both a call to collectivism as a way
to fight crony capitalism, as well as a damn lovely record. Matt's technique and
compositions continue to blend raw power, delicate note placement, and wild imagination
into a unique alloy. While it's easy to close your eyes, lean back and know you are
listening to a record in the great Takoma tradition, the borrowings here are solely
of tone and mood. The specific approach is all Matt's. This allows his work to be
familiar and all new at once. In this sense, he's akin to every new generation of
finger picking guitarists who have found something special in the syncretic blend of
traditional and modern that Fahey head-birthed. But Matt's playing is illuminated by
a very special kind of light. And we think you are gonna dig it like crazy."

"We were introduced to the work of Brooklyn polymath Curtis Godino by Gary Panter.
We asked Gary to recommend someone with light show expertise, and he said Curtis was
the guy. That was true. We also learned that Curtis was an ace musician, which has
resulted in two prior FTR releases. The first was The Cave LP (FTR 417LP, 2019) by
Worthless. The second was the Corners and Their Places cassette by Nothing To Semble.
Both of these releases were form-busting masterworks of outsider/prog crossover with
hallucinogenic overtones. And even mightier is this new LP, Alien Nation, which sounds
to us like a lost '67 Mothers album, recorded at Apostolic Studios while the band was
in NYC for their six-month run at the Garrick Theater. Admittedly there's nowhere near
as much guitar as you'd find on an actual Mothers record, so imagine what the band
might have done on a session where Frank was sick and things were led being by Don
Preston and Ian Underwood in full freak mode. The music is wonderfully cartoony
electronic wheezing with all sorts of other instruments (and/or mock instruments)
blended into the mix. And the vocals don't sound like Frank either, but just imagine
if John Kilgore had left open microphones strewn all over the studio for various
people to spoot into when they wanted. It's kinda like that. But even more fucked up.
With hints of Bonzos-style pop-malfunction surfacing here and there like toy robot
blimps. Really wonderful stuff. If I could be any recreational drug I could name,
I'd like to think I'd sound just like this."

Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records 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 close to capturing the intimacy and directness of their recordings where they
take things to a higher plane of personal expression. In Dark Country Magic, haunting
effects and experimental sounds combine with wailing fuzzed-up garage folk anthems
and twisted poetic freak-folk as lyrical layers peel away endlessly, tiny amps weep
in pain, crude percussion booms thunderous, and ragged, beautiful hooks unfurl
straight out of the void. On "Coming Home Pt.III" Kinsella's quivering bewitching
vocals ask you to succumb to the hauntingly melancholic drift while acoustics strum
quietly up front before Dark Country Magic's playful closer "Moo-Hoo" where Quinnisa
performs a children's story. The combination is head spinning and gloriously original,
but will be immediately identifiable as Big Blood by anyone who knows the band's music.

"Fantastic new LP by this Brooklyn quintet, most of whom are deeply involved in the
legendary Sunview Luncheonette scene. The roots of Jantar lie in a nameless
experimental duo formed by Chad Laird and Tianna Kennedy in 2005 or so, but this
duo has evolved into a working band with two distinct creative strategies. One of
their aims in make 'experimental easy listening music,' which involves working angles
that are similar to film music, although perhaps with a bit of Stereolab poured on
top. Their other mode is more overtly rockoid, and that was the intent when they
recorded Sempronia in the summer of 2017. While the sounds here do have moments of
cinematic heft, the main thrust has a sheen that reminds me of updated examples of
Canterbury classicism (specifically Soft Machine, Hatfield & Gong) as well a certain
sophisticated element of the West Coast underground of the early '80s (Monitor,
Romans, Fibinaccis, etc.) Without any kind of the nostalgic twaddle that haunts most
contemporary stabs in the Canterbury direction, Jantar's music uses elements of the
sound to create new kinds of rock. Meaning it's informed by such bands rather than
indebted to their four-eyed legacy. Great keyboard tones, rhythm clumps, vocals and
all else. The music on Sempronia is a wonderful convergence of a lot disparate threads
that manage to meld together better than anyone could dream. As sweet and smart as
any pie. Honest."

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
spectrums -- Popul Vuh, Agitation Free, Six Organs/Ben Chasny -- Sol's self-professed
mentors-in-spirit Jerry Garcia, Jimi Hendrix, and Manuel Göttsching are present as
well in familiar and surprising ways. In review it has been said that Prana Crafter's
music is "an example of psych-folk at its finest" (Raven Sings the Blues),
"like a long lost pressing from the early '70s, it's a mist shrouded mysterious
meditation" (Shindig Magazine), and even that, "few other musicians are making music
as ambitious and genuine as Prana Crafter" (The Active Listener). Will has said he
thinks of himself as a conduit when recording and with MysticMorpho Prana Crafter
are creating truly cosmic music, a synthesized mediation -- think if you will of
Terry Reilly and Sandy Bull blending their hypnotic energy flow together. MysticMorpho
is a 35-minute kosmische inspired acid opus that lets your mind venture in the
slipstream, between the viaducts of your dream before gently floating you back down
to Earth. Presented in a lush gloss laminated outer sleeve with exquisite artwork
design by John Nicol.

"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 if Tim Buckley had written a tune for
Nico to do on Chelsea Girl? I think you'll be damn happy with this reply. About half
the album is made up of songs from their then-newly-released masterpiece, All That
Remains. But the way they attack those tunes here has an additional shroud of moodiness
drawn over it, adding a whole 'nother layer of dark richness. This is not always the
tone the band shoots for in a live setting, but it's a truly otherworldly treat when
they do. Because they really nail it, with a feel that makes me recall early work by
the legendary Opal. The same is true on the two cover tunes. The traditional 'Young
Girl Cut Down in Her Prime' (done so memorably by Shirley & Dolly Collins on Love
Death & the Lady) is a tune the duo previously recorded for the Ptolemaic Terrascope's
great 2016 comp LP, Paper Leaves. But precious few copies of that one managed to get
into the right hands. And this version is perfect -- stark, haunting, electric.
The other cover is a revelatory take on 'Splash 1,' from The Psychedelic Sounds of
the 13th Floor Elevators. The Left Outsides gently lift up one of the most beautiful
songs the Elevators ever did, turning it into something even more charmed and wistful
than the original. And that's it. A truly beautiful album from start to finish. And
a great place to start exploring the band's sound if you've not done so yet. Don't be
afraid to play catch up. There's plenty more to come."

"Having explored a lot of Southern Vermont-based artists over the past decade and
a half, it now seems time to cast our gaze northward. From the cold shores of
Champlain comes the music of Wren Kitz, a singer and guitarist from Burlington VT.
Unlike much of his earlier work, which falls into what might be called a 'progressive
/experimental folk bag,' Early Worm documents a harder sound. As Mr. Kitz says,
'It's my rock n roll album.' And he ain't kidding. While some of the tunes were
initially developed in a solo setting, their final realization was accomplished by
a four-piece band with cellist Lauren Costello, bassist Ross Doree, and drummer
Rob Voland. The sound on Early Worm is a natural and louder progression from Wren's
most recent album, the NNA cassette, Dancing on Soda Lake. One notable point of
departure is Rob's drumming -- more formidably rockoid than his predecessor's.
The wailingness-factor of Wren's guitar tone has also been upped by the gift of a
new wah-wah pedal. His guitar now has a stuttering rawness that makes for a beautiful
contrast with the sweetly flowing vocal melodies, which bear vestiges of Valentine,
Vile, and Young. The sound of Early Worm careens around wildly. Parts of the songs
are tightly controlled compositions with traces of folkier times, but these often
dissolve (eventually) in an acid bath of wonderfully berserk guitar chaos. Trying
to reconcile the pieces can make your brain overheat, so don't try. Just sit back
and enjoy the rich madness of Early Worm. Its roll is not something you've heard
before. Get used to it. Or get burned."

Just what you need in these end times -- Cardinal Fuzz (Europe) and Feeding Tube
Records (N. America) -- a vinyl issue of the killer CD comp that SS Records released
way back in 2004 with a couple of added treats. Brace yourself for some stellar hair
singeing, full-throttle wipe outs across four slabs of heavy black vinyl. Monoshock
was one of the best bands of the '90s and if they were from Seattle and not Illa
Vista and Oakland, California you would already know that. During their six years
they released a handful of 7"s, served as a backing band for Von Lmo, and created
one of the classic psych albums of all time, Walk to the Fire (1996). In the last
few years, they received praise from around the globe, raved up by Julian Cope as
one of the great unknown bands of the '90s and cited as an influence by current heavy
favs, Comets on Fire, as well as a whole slew of Japanese psych bands. Monoshock is
fuzz-fuel, wah-wah damaged, riff-crazed punk rock which draws in Hawkwind, the Stooges,
Simply Saucer, and other psych-punk gods. This double-LP collects all their 7"s and
comp tracks together with seven previously unreleased tunes and two songs from their
ultra-rare 1989 demo tape and two added digi bonus live tracks from their reunion
shows. Fans will be overjoyed. Virgins will become fans. The band's stellar Walk to
the Fire has been acknowledged as one of the classic psych albums of all time. Comes
with a folded A3 double sided insert.

"Here is the second solo LP by the wonderful London-based singer/multi-instrumentalist
Alison Cotton. Originally issued on cassette by the mighty Bloxham Tapes, just about
everyone who heard Only Darkness Now suggested it might make for an excellent LP.
And hey -- they were right. Alison's debut LP All Is Quiet at the Ancient Theatre
(FTR 424LP) received wide ranging critical acclaim from placing in the Guardians
Writers 'Album Of The Year' to placing in the Quietus 'Albums of the Year'. Ms.
Cotton has a storied past performing with Saloon and The Eighteenth Day of May, and
she still may be found doing likewise with The Left Outsides . . . Only Darkness
Now begins with a sidelong instrumental track, 'Behind the Spiderweb Gate,' during
which Cotton displays her immense drone chops, organizing rich, thick layers of viola,
Omnichord, and voice into the soundtrack for a totally immersive trip. The effect is
such that seconds become minutes and as time stretches till eventually, in the peak,
time ceases to have any meaning whatsoever -- a beautiful state to be transported
too as everything slows down. You could spend a whole year listening to this one.
The second side starts with 'In Solitude I Will Fade Away,' a collage of Alison's
voice, twinned and then some. It's short and sweet with just a little drumming to
move things along. 'How My Heart Bled in Bleeding Heart Yard' brims with as much
longing as it title suggests. It opens with a long instrumental passage, emphasizing
the human pace of a harmonium's breath patterns, soon joined by a viola, also
offering tones of a very human quality. All of this swells into a chorale of immense
and mournful depth before being joined by Nico-like vocals that raise a wordless
alarm. 'The Hill Was Hollow' is a short mystery for percussion and violin. Unravel
at your own peril. Finally there is 'Shirt of Lace.' This is a studio recording of
one of Alison's regular live covers. The song is by the late Dorothy Carter
(a visionary American musician whose work bridged experimental and medieval musics)
and Cotton's version is a sheer blast -- her vocals curling and twisting high above
a supple bed of key drones, string plucks and sliding arco passageways . . . one of
the very few albums I can name that matches the cold fire of Nico's Marble Index and
it does so without taking a single step that isn't purely Alison's own..."

At last, a new studio LP from superb London duo, The Left Outsides, to follow up
on 2018's amazing All That Remains. The basic building blocks remain the same -- half
of the sound is Alison Cotton and her viola and keys, the other half is Mark Nicholas
with a stunning array of guitars -- but the structures they create this time are
darker and more forbidding than their antecedents. This album feels very much a piece
of the season in which it is being released, as the leaves strip themselves from trees
and the sky grows colder, greyer by the hour. More than once while Are You Sure I Was
There spun I was put in mind of the classic Rainy Day LP, masterminded by Kendra Smith
back in 1984.

"Frank Hurricane's been chugging along at his own personal pace for a good while now,
and the further he rambles, the further we roam with him. Here he's joined by Jake
Merrick on bass, vocals, and keys and John Spiegel on drums and percussion. And it
feels good. The group exquisitely compliments Frank's tales of travel and serenity
and the embrace of uncertainty. There's a languid hallucinatory Meat Puppets vibe
to 'Creekside Cooler,' 'Spivey,' and 'Wildorado,' a song with a killer Taco Bell
shout-out. Elsewhere they lope through after-hours vibes that could be drawn from
the Raccoon catalog or some Shangri-La Studio sessions. Some examples: 'Cold and
Snow' gives a classic American trope the Hurricane psilocybin head nod treatment.
Frank's always aware of spirits, and on 'I Know I'll See a Ghost' he casts himself
as temporarily dead -- or halfway dead at least. It's the spiritual purgatory outlined
by George Saunders in Lincoln in the Bardo funneled into a '90s flannel. 'Devil's
Looking Glass' is almost bardic in scope and feel. 'Dandelions' renders the
intoxication of amorous desire into a chug worthy of Crazy Horse. 'Luna Belle'
starts as a lilting evening lament and gallops off to the moon before it gets
started. 'Dreamed About You' could be a song about missing just about anything or
anyone or any hope or any wish. And so Frank Hurricane yawps wide and loud, once
again, without apology, from his jug of love. This record is an elegy to sadly
departed friends (Danny Cruz, Terry Turtle, et al.), and a beautiful dream of a
future none of us can quite imagine but should probably be working towards."

"Don't hold me to it, but by my count this the sixth LP we have done with the
splendid Brighton-based musician named Joseph Allred. Initially known as a master
of stringed instruments, Joseph has continuously expanded his musical arsenal.
When asked about basics regarding Branches & Leaves, he wrote, 'I played harmonium,
piano, guitars, glockenspiel, banjo, tambourine, bass drum, and clarinet on this
album and did all the vocals myself. I'm glad I got to collaborate with some friends
and would like to have done so more, but the pandemic made that impossible. Recorded
at the end of 2019 and in the first few months of 2020 in Overton County, Tennessee
and Boston.' The ten songs on Branches & Leaves are originals, apart from two
traditional tunes, 'When the World's on Fire,' and 'Can't Feel at Home,' which
Allred first heard performed by the Carter Family. And while it if difficult to
attach too specific a tag to this wonderfully varied LP, words like 'Southern,'
'gnostic,' 'rural' and 'haunted' keep floating into my head. Not always at the
same time, but enough to think I might use them to point in the material's general
direction. The mix of harmonium and Allred's vocal delivery gives some of songs the
sonic qualities of a spiritual, even if the lyrics are not similarly disposed.
Joseph's work is always very personal and idiosyncratic, so I am hesitant to make
too many statements about it. Other than to say the way he weaves all these threads
into the textures of American Primitive guitar music is amazing to hear. Branches
& Leaves may be one of the more plain-spoken albums in Joseph Allred's canon, but
like all his music, the songs have many layers of sound and meaning that will unfold
themselves for your pleasure for a long while to come. Beautiful stuff."

Dateline unknown -- emanations from a planet in meltdown. The universal cosmic event
tracker estimates between 22 to 52 points of possible physical contact with The Band
Whose Name Is A Symbol but it has lost count. This Canadian improv unit have over the
last few years started to get the gushing love and attention they have always deserved.
Like all the best artists, they do not fit snugly into any genre -- as from one moment
to the next their ability to create cosmically juiced up and fucked up music which
in many cases when played and recorded was the first time and last time said tracks
will ever be played. This has proven to be the case time after time across too many
releases to mention (no wonder Damo Suzuki always calls on TBWNIS to back him up).
If you said Berserkir Volume II could be the pinnacle, you would yet again be getting
caught up in the moment of magic they spin on you. Berserkir II contains four long
tracks of hypnotic and freaked out cosmic haze (all recorded in the same four-hour
session that yielded Berserkir Volume I). There are zero overdubs whatsoever and no
studio gimmickry. The pieces are framed by supercharged, blistering, psychedelic
dual guitars, pummeling rhythm, mutated; Miles-inspired flights of free form trumpet
and flowing synth drones touching side excursions into the depths of alien prog.
One may well be compelled to crank this up loud and leave speakers and mind, shattered
and melded together in a smoldering heap on the floor! End of transmission...

A1 Evidence Of New Gravitation
A2 Fitful Embers
B1 Radiant Drifter
B2 Of A Similar Mind
"Paradoxically, the second LP by Spiral Wave Nomads documents the first time Albany
-based guitarist Eric Hardiman and New Haven-based drummer Michael Kiefer attempted
to play as two humans inhabiting the same locus inside the time/space continuum.
The pair had been trading files and music for a good while. Their eponymous debut
LP (FTR 455) was produced remotely and released too much rapture in May 2019.
But they had never actually played together until later in that summer.
First Encounters is raw documentation of what happened when they walked into the
studio at Eric's, house, set up and let the music flow. Very much in the same
headspace as their debut, the improvisations here combine sinewy, SCG-informed
guitar lines with cymbal-rich percussion that moves in laterally jazzoid patterns.
But that's not all of it. Other parts make me think of a stripped-down version of
Feelies (during their brief mostly-instrumental phase in the early '80s) jumping
deep into psych improvisation. In other spots I'm put in mind of tapes I've been
hearing of '60s Bay Area guitarists getting themselves into 'trouble' while playing
on acid. There are these moments where the guitarist (Garcia, Cipollina, Kaukonen,
etc.) realizes they've hit a wall, and they either back down or they decide to take
the wall apart. In the latter instances the players become de facto avant-gardists,
since the deconstruction process is so different from their standard practices.
Anyway, there's some of that here as well. Although given Hardiman's deep experimental
roots, his moves are presumably a more conscious decision to go 'out.' The upshot is
that the four tracks on First Encounters are wonderfully explosive, difficult to
predict and utterly mind-melting. Just the thing to soak in during what looks to be
a hard-ass winter. Spiral Wave Nomads' music reminds us that spring will eventually
blossom again."

"Divine Horsemen were a band formed & led by Chris D between the years 1983 and 1988,
while he was on hiatus from the Flesh Eaters. Divine Horsemen (taking their name from
one of the Flesh Eaters' most powerful stompers) emerged as a byproduct of Chris'
gorgeous solo album, Time Stands Still. He met singer Julie Christensen a few months
before the recording, and the mix of their voices was such a perfect pairing of honey
and gravel, they knew they had to keep working together. Taking a more measured rock
tone (as compared to the raging word-zonk of the Flesh Eaters), Divine Horsemen
recorded three great LPs and one EP for SST. They were also an amazingly solid live
band, combining Chris' gonzo pulp imagery with those incredible twinned vocals,
massive guitar riffs and a truly locked-in rhythm section. The two shows from which
this album is harvested were recorded just before the Devil's River album came out
in '85, and close on the heels of '87's Middle of the Night. It seems wild to me,
listening to this disk for the umpteenth time, how together these songs are as
rock-qua-rock monsters. I realize I'm biased and all, but I'd say half of the tunes
are nothing less than goddamn classics. I somewhat prefer the later version of the
band with Peter Andrus on guitar (he replaced Wayne James, Cam King and Marshall
Rohner), but that's just picking nits. The core of the line-up was stable -- Julie
and Chris singing, the late Robyn Jameson (the sole holdover from the Flesh Eaters)
on bass, Rex Roberts on drums -- and they always sounded real damn good. Sadly, the
band didn't last as long as hoped. Chris and Julie got married, but that was a
collaboration that burned too hot to last. The band split when the couple did, which
ended a truly ecstatic vocal pair-up. Julie went on to work for almost a decade as
Leonard Cohen's angelic foil, but I was more excited to hear she was guesting on
2019's boss Flesh Eaters' album, I Used to be Pretty. And her vocal spots at a few
of their live shows were spine-tingling. But there's nothing quite like the sound
of Divine Horsemen. From the hot rod thuggery of 'Mother's Worry' to the sweet
massage of 'Middle of the Night,' their music will take you where you want to go.
So, lay back and dig this disk, while you wait for their new studio LP, Hot Rise of
an Ice Cream Phoenix, on In the Red. There is also talk of a live tour, which would
be fan-fucking-tastic. More than that I cannot say. Selah."

FTR 582 PG SIX/LOUISE BOCK : ALLSUMMER LONG IS GONE CS 10.2021
"PG Six (aka Pat Gubler) is based in the New England and is known for his mastery
of many stringed objects. He has appeared on six earlier Feeding Tube LPs, the most
recent of which is the great PG Six Live at the Tavern (FTR 556LP). Louise Bock
(aka Taralie Peterson) is a multi-instrumentalist long associated with both the
Midwest and Spires That in the Sunset Rise, but she has other axes in the fire as
well, and has been on three earlier FTR slabs. So the two have a collective history
with the label, but this is their first duo release, and it's a corker. PG plays
Celtic harp and keyboard, Louise plays alto sax and uses her voice as well.
Together these threads wind together as though discovered in the grooves of some
imaginary ECM album from the very early '70s. Bock's alto loops itself into spinning
hoops of sax logic that carry the cold thrill of Northern Europe in winter. PG's
strings and keys create an entire alternate history of what the Irish avant
underground might have been doing around the same time if they hadn't been ass-deep
in the Troubles. Some of my favorite parts are those where great washes of keyboard
foam are intercut with sax that sounds like altered whale song. But there's no
denying the superb quality of PG's harp pluckery either. Its sharp sonic edge
(and the lingering peat smoke of sad Irish sealing songs) lends it an emotional
depth that balances nicely with the exceptionally brainy quality of Louise's horn
lines. All Summer Long is Gone is an album no one probably expected, but now that
it's here, you should be among the first to sing its praises. Do yourself a favor
and get ahead of the pack. You'll be damn glad you did."

Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records present a long-awaited reissue of Dead Sea
Apes & Black Tempest's The Sun Behind The Sun. This reissue is presented in a
reflective Mirri Board reflective outer sleeve. Manchester's Dead Sea Apes and
Godalming's Black Tempest engage in a mind meld of galactic proportions on this;
both band's first outing on vinyl. Both entities weave together seamlessly as "Grey
Alphabets" recalls Goblin's giallo soundtracks, whilst "Wilder Penfield" pulses
with post-punk metal-loid Harmonia kraut vibes. Side two is given over to the
25+minute "Heliopause" -- a dubby astral meditation, where Oneida meet Tangerine
Dream in an elongated komische drift. For fans of: Harmonia, Oneida, Goblin, Mogwai,
Tangerine Dream.

Dataland is a collaboration with Black Tempest and Adam Stone, achieved mainly through
internet data transfer during the Covid lockdown of 2020. Insistent, evolving
electronic sounds encounter a variety of guitars and percussion, from the clockwork
kosmische of "Lost Hours" to the stumbling noise dub of "Shop Soiled", while Adam
Stone's words meditate on life in the post-industrial west, our increasingly atomized
and data-driven society and its logical conclusion in a corporatized dystopia.
Dataland is a meditation upon the average existence of a "developed-world" human in
the early 21st century. Whilst not struggling with the harsh physical demands of
industrial labor as we did in the recent past, our plight continues to embody the
melancholia and confusion of alienation. Under the bewildering complexity of
rationalized social and economic systems, we may indeed have become unwitting
prisoners within, what the sociologist Max Weber termed, "the iron cage of
bureaucracy" -- tripping the minutes away in a daily pantomime of data-driven
surrealism. This six-song collection is a fusion of electronica, monologue, "real
drums", and guitar, and was recorded at various locations in sad old England over
the last two years or so. An almost psychedelic sense of puzzlement, nausea, and
fatigue accompanies being lost in the omnipresent number-generating machines and
anti-human modelling systems that now run our world. This is the realization that
defines the essence of the album -- that your life is now only as real as what is
displayed on the screen of your constant technological companion.

A4 Dunums What Is Aleppo
B1 Casual Planes Fruiting Body
"We have Asheville NC's Tashi Dorji to thank for this one. It was his enthusiastic
recommendation that led us to this insane LP. Both DUNUMS and Casual Planes are duos
originally formed in Durham NC. The former in 2010, the latter in 2017. They are both
currently comprised of Sijal Nasralla (also of Durham punk trio, The Muslims) and
Alston Palmer (who does solo electronics as Hoverist). Sijal is the leader of DUNUMS,
and Alston (who relocated to Los Angeles a few years back) is the brains behind Casual
Planes. And while they share musical traits, they're also quite different from each
other. DUNUMS' music has a core relationship to Sijal's identity as a member of the
Palestinian diaspora. But unlike a record such as Attya X Attya' Alpharabius,
specific sonic references to this are usually bundled up inside dense duo
improvisation, or appear as sound fragments when the music is quiet. There are
certainly chunks that feel explicitly Palestinian, but more often the overall thrust
possesses a boiling, Beefheart-damaged wrench-and-flow akin to such fried post-core
art rock outfits as Senyawa or Zu. Pretty wild stuff. In DUNUMS, Alston plays drums
and Sijal handles guitar, vocals, bass and electronics. Casual Planes, on the other
hand, feature Alston on guitar and Sijal on drums. The Planes take an all-instrumental
approach that parallels some of DUNUMS' compress-and-release dynamism, but ultimately
the music is much more overtly jazzoid. Sijal's drumming is almost the foreground
event, but Alston's effects-laden guitar work is wild and impressive. Some of his
more fully-whacked splange makes me think of the most fucked-up stuff Nels Cline's
amp might spew if he felt like doing a Ruins cover. But as the Casual Planes' side of
the album evolves, things really fly off in a unique direction. The mix of cloppy
power-drumming and surging sheet metal guitar improv is totally up its own tree.
This is the first vinyl release by either of these units, but let us hope it is
nowhere near the last. I'd be more than happy to hear a full slab by either of them,
in the very near future. Hope -- the eternal spring!"

"It is with great pleasure we announce the vinylization of the fourth (of five)
albums released during their lifetime by this superb Providence-based acid-folk duo,
who existed from 1996 to 2003. The Iditarod was primarily the vehicle for Carin
Wagnerand Jeffrey Alexander, who created a spare UK-damaged folk sound with intimate
psychedelic touches and fully contemporary atmospherics, although they often had
friends along for the ride. On this album (edited down from the original CD), guest
musicians are Matt Everett (from Alec Redfearn's band, Eyesores), Jesse Poe (from
Tanakh), and Margie Wienk (of Fern Knight and Eyesores). Together, they create
a lovely haunted forest of sounds. Although the ensemble is small, certain passages
(like the traditional 'Let No Man Steal Your Thyme') have a jazzy lilt that evokes
Pentangle, despite the fact the arrangement is quite stark. Somehow they manage to
capture the essence of a full band despite their actual size. On the opposite end
of things is a track like 'Cycle Circle,' with backwards guitars, dolorous bells
chiming in the distance, and a vocal from Carin that sounds like spirit projection.
In between there are a host of excellent surprises. The album was recorded in
Richmond, VA in 2001. It was originally issued on CD by the Bluesanct label, and
came out a little bit before the whole New Weird America thing took off. This was
back when there were a lot of people trying out different approaches to unlocking
the secrets of the acid folk tradition, but before there was a name for what they
were doing, or any kind of real scene to chronicle. In that sense, The Iditarod were
a bit ahead of their time. But we won't hold that against them. I have lost track
of what Carin is up to these days, but Jeffery has kept busy, with bands like
Dire Wolves and solo projects like Meditations for Beowulf (FTR 470LP). It's very
nice to revisit some of his back pages. The blend the Iditarod offers sounds as
great as ever, and augurs a cool future that was just beginning. Tally ho!"

"Here is the first Lazy Magnet LP since 2019's Mahogany. And it's a beautiful
instrumental album which has known many iterations since it was first conceived.
Lazy Magnet has long been the home recording project of Jeremy Harris. Over the
course of its long arc the actual music has taken many forms -- this time he has
chosen to dedicate an entire body of work on a single instrument: the acoustic
piano. The initial idea for Make It Fun Again dates to 2007, when Harris and his
buddy Robert Parker (depicted on the cover) were screwing around recording anti
melodies on a cheap monophonic keyboard. This goof was too good to let go of, and
Harris revisited his tape of the 'sessions' as he traveled. He taught himself how
to notate the music and agonized for 13 years over how it might be presented.
Harris says, 'The style that I finally decided on was a recreation of a time in
Amiens, France while I was on tour in 2009 where I was in an old barn in the middle
of the night playing a fucked-up piano while it rained heavily outside. I was gently
playing the themes and slowly piecing together chords based on the made-up scales
that the toy keyboard had struggled to play back...' Fast forward to the summer of
2020... 'I opened up Logic Pro and started composing the music within its midi
programming environment. It took a couple months for me to finally get all ten
pieces to where they felt finished, but it ended up being well beyond my ability
to sight read or play. I sent the automatically generated score to my friend Sakiko
Mori. She told me it was all incorrect and impossible to read. I went back and
basically taught myself how to properly write scores and corrected the pieces so
that she could read and perform them. 'We booked time at machines with magnets and
she recorded all of it in about four hours.' The result is these ten instrumental
pieces, played on piano by Mori. To my ear the feel of the program is very much in
the vein of early 20th Century French pianists -- Satie, Debussy, Poulenc -- stately,
melodically complex and simple at the same time, possessing many depths. The title
track is a bit different -- seemingly an example of extended pedal treatment and
reel to reel manipulation. Regardless, the music on Make It Fun Again is of a piece,
and a deeply pleasurable one. Almost like a massive return to a previously unknown
form. Gotta dig that. Eh?"

04. Old Million Eye Selling Me The Popular
05. Old Million Eye Left Island Born
06. Old Million Eye Colobispo Entities
07. Old Million Eye Light Battles
"First LP, after several fine cassettes & CDRs, by this psych project helmed by
Brian Lucas. Lucas is best known these days for his bass work with Dire Wolves
Just Exactly Perfect Sisters Band, but he has a hand in many other California psych
outfits. The Wolves have been quiet vis-a-vis new recordings lately, but Old Million
Eye has been pretty busy. Often the OME moniker represents solo work, but this time
Brian has recruited Dena Goldsmith-Stanley (3 Moons) and Steven R Smith (an old band
mate from Mirza) to assist with his journey. And the results are beautiful.
The most basic elements of The Incandescent Switch are swirls of kosmiche keyboard,
with vocals buried in the clouds, melodic bass lines moving through like slow-motion
lightning, and various instrumental events darting hither and yon. The overall feel
is something like a collision between a mid '70s album on the German Sky label and
a '68 Bay Area acid-flash sensibility. The one track featuring both Goldsmith-Stanley
and Smith, 'I Labour Upwards into Futurity,' is especially neat. The dynamic shifts
between the three players give it an organic, interactive breath-shape that really
makes me want to see them work together in a live setting. But even when he's
working alone, handling guitars, percussion and who knows what else, Lucas creates
fully inhabited dreamscapes of sound. I, for one, cannot wait to trip while spinning
The Incandescent Switch. It seems like a very winning combination."

"We are most pleased to present the seventh LP by The Doozer, now based in Edinburgh,
but still creating a sound we feel has deep roots in Cambridge, England. is a somewhat
sparser trip than his last album, 2018's Figurines (FTR 360LP), but the quality of
the songs will be balm to those who have missed his presence. With gentle
accompaniment from multi-instrumentalist Ben Kingsbury, Lance Whitehead and Eddie
Goodban, the tracks here were recorded in Edinburgh in the summer of 2019, before
the shit hit the fans, but some of the songs feel as though they were precipitated
by a personal apocalypse, and I'm pretty sure that's something we can all empathize
with at this point in the time/space continuum. The sense one gets is that the songs
collected here are deigned to help us all rebuild that which has collapsed around us.
This is not on infer that The Doozer has gone all instructional on us. One of the
great features of his songs has always been their way of combining abstract confusion
with observational clarity, allowing simple words to create abstract images. And that
has not changed here. His brilliantly casual approach to this is what always makes
people (like me anyway), think about his music in terms of extending the sweetest
traditions of Syd Barrett and Nick Nicely. There is darkness built into this music,
but it is countered with illumination. And if you so choose, you can spend many
pleasant hours exploring the many mysterious corners of Convalescence.
And that would be the right thing to do!"

"Vinylization of a tour CDR, Josephine recorded at home around the time of A Wolf
in Sheep's Clothing (2006). Accompanying herself on guitar and piano, with some
drum and vocal help from Brian Goodman, the album is a glorious once-lost-now-found
piece of the fascinating musical puzzle that is the music of Josephine Foster.
While Foster's music is clearly consonant with the current trends in avant-völk
music (here, especially, on her wild readings from the Tibetan Book of Dzyan),
another large portion of her muse seems rooted in the parlor music tradition that
predates recorded sound. At times, when she is playing piano and singing, you can
almost imagine she's channeling the spirit of a long-gone frontier maiden, belting
out her soul's truths on an old upright piano in a dusty living room. It feels like
an improvised soundtrack to Michael Lesy's Wisconsin Death Trip (1973). But the
work presented on this album is neither static nor easily categorized. Josephine
follows her muse wherever it goes, and (like her) it is peripatetic as all get-out.
From free rock slugfests, to tunes that float with the easy clarity of hymns, What
Is It That Ever Was? offers a peek into the private creative process of one of this
generation's great original voices. Don't be shy."

"What a pleasure it is to bring you the first vinyl version of Jokes and Trials,
the 2006 solo debut by Melbourne's Ned Collette, whose incredible song cycle Old
Chestnut (FTR 362-2LP, 2018) and brilliant instrumental album Afternoon-Dusk
(FTR 468LP, 2019) have been widely and correctly lauded as classics. As Mark Harwood
explains in his excellent liner notes, Ned emerged from the Melbourne improv
underground along with people like Will Guthrie and Joe Talia. Indeed, it was
Talia who turned Ned onto Jim O'Rourke's 2001 classic, Insignificance, as a way
of demonstrating possible connections between pop song form and avant-garde
strategies. Ned's own first moves in this direction built around loops. But by the
time he was ready to cut Jokes and Trials, he was eager to try more traditional
musical structures, infused with subtle tendrils of experimentalism. The songs
on this album use elements like pedal steel, cello, and a vocal chorus to create
a set of music with a timelessness rooted equally in early '70s singer-songwriterism,
and subsequent avant-garde variations on the form. There is something at the base
of Ned's guitar and voice here that put me in mind of Bert Jansch's work for the
Charisma label. The vocals and words bespeak a knowledge or the same deep well
of sorrow, although whether this is truth or artifice I cannot claim to know.
Several of the tunes on Jokes and Trials point directly towards the richness of
Ned's evolving style, and his ability to use small changes to instrumentation in
ways that feel radical. The more I play it, the more the detailing reveals itself.
This album may represent an early step in Collette's stylistic journey, but it is
a sure and beautiful one. Certain to massage the souls of those who came to his
music later in the game. A good one for sure."

"This is a reissue of Josh's 2020 LP, originally released on his own Mystra label,
many copies of which ended up being warped. Rather than deny his fans the aural
pleasures they so richly deserve, Feeding Tube stepped in to offer some assistance
in getting a flatter pressing together. We hope this works out for you. If You Can't
Wander is the seventh LP Josh has released since 1995 and it may be his quietest,
most songwriterly effort yet. Of course there are the occasional bloops of electronics
(or what have you) that tend to pop up in his much of work, but the bulk of the sound
here is acoustic guitar and solo vocals, presented in a very intimate fashion.
Everything is mic'd so closely, there are times where you'll be able to close your
eyes and imagine Josh is sitting right in your goddamn lap. By personal choice,
Burkett often seems to favor English models for his picking, with lightly embellished
melody lines that sound as though they were recorded directly onto Bill Leader's
four-track. But his vocals, especially on this album, are extremely casual in both
delivery and harmonic resolution, appearing to follow something more akin to the
American loner-folk model. Reading along with the lyric booklet provided, I was
struck by the words in a way I haven't always been on Josh's previous albums.
On earlier sides, the vocals almost felt like a nearly-hidden element of the overall
sound more than anything with very specific meaning. But reading them affords
listeners an entry point to whole new layers of their strange greatness.
They possess a savage lostness that makes this record resonate with some of the
same qualities that animate the work of Dana Westover or Dave Bixby. If You Can't
Wander the Waffle Wonder the Drizzle is Joshua Burkett's defining document thus far.
It's a record that will take you as deep as you allow it. Amazing stuff."

A1 Blood Sun 21:13
B1 All Too Real 8:05
B2 Invisible Hammerblow 4:22
B3 Red Flesh 8:07
Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records announce the new LP from Mienakunaru,
Blood Sun. After Mienakunaru's debut brain crusher Lost Bones Of The Holy Butterfly
that came via esteemed label Drone Rock Records (and reissued in the USA via
Echodelick), Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records bring you Blood Sun, a ferocious
throb of three people losing themselves in the beauty of fuzz, sizzle and noise.
Mienakunaru are a throbbing face melting power trio made up of Mike Vest, Junzo
Suzuki and Dave Sneddon and if you were to write up the list of bands these artists
have been involved with there would be no room to write more -- the list reads
like a who's who of cult underground hardcore and psychedelic bands. For those
that may not have been listening to anything associated with these leviathans of
heady, psychedelic noise, what you have here is fuzz drenched, waster infused and
pounding like jack hammer freak-outs. Over four tracks of which the title track
takes up the whole of one side you are treated to forty minutes of heavy cosmic
amplifier worship, where the hypnotic nature of the music created within, unfolds
and time and space begins to distort. Prepare to have your body shaken as
Mienakunaru lay waste. Mienakunaru are: Junzo Suzuki - guitar; Mike Vest - bass,
guitar, mix; Dave Sneddon - drums. Solid white vinyl; edition of 500.

A Untitled
B Untitled
Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records bring your way The Band Whose Name Is A
Symbol's Ensemble 8/3/2016. Recorded of the floor in August 2016 in the spiritual
setting of Birdman Sound -- eight players made up the iteration of the always
mutating ensemble cast, who were as follows -- John Westhaver, Nathaniel Hurlow,
Bill Guerrero, Jason Vaughan, Dave Reford, Scott Thompson, Mark McIntyre, and Eric
Larock. The session for Ensemble went down at their spiritual home of Birdman Sound
in Ottawa in August 2016 where what you hear on record was recorded direct from the
floor (and mastered/tweaked by Chris Hardman). The whole session (and note this is
an edit to fit the constraints of vinyl) flies by with a reckless, organic abandon,
as at times eight players fly off in different dynamic directions of abstract
playing and improvisation with trumpet player Scott Thompson much to the fore and
blowing wild. At times the feel of this recording is like a collision between some
out there '70s German avant rock band who have been transported to a San Franciscan
Ballroom is '68 where the whole audience are peaking on "Orange Sunshine" as ensemble
finishes up like a beautiful trip, well taken.

Take the freaked-out, punked-up soul of The Stooges and MC5 mix that with '60s
garage trash, blend in Sabbath, AC/DC and heavy rock n' roll and then hot wire that
sound to a handful of freaks located in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Here it is that
Angered Wrecks were located -- in an old Victorian style house in downtown
Fredericton. It was here they set up a permanent rehearsal space on the main floor
taking up the dining room and living room area with a full P.A. system and the long
parties would begin as the Angered Wrecks cranked out an unholy primal serving of
mind-numbing, eyeball-popping guttural pure rock and roll. Lucky for us, the Angered
Wrecks had a primitive DIY recording set up as they recorded live off the floor with
one cardioid mic taped to the ceiling to capture the entire room sound and straight
into a cheap Alpine cassette deck. The results of these previously unheard recordings
capture the essence of trashy rock n' roll at its finest, delivered with pure
dereliction, and always a side of extra sleaze. Keeping warm in the winter at
another old salt box style house they would later rehearse and play gigs in,
a large circle was cut in the floor so that the rising heat from the pottery kiln
downstairs would (along with the right mixture of beer and "Purple Jesus", weed and
often speed and hot dogs) keep these boys fueled long enough in sub-zero temperatures
to keep pumping out the rock n' roll savagery. The last show they played was in the
fall of '81 at the Bug Shack after the household was served an eviction noticed with
the house to be entirely demolished (just like Stooge Manor aka The Fun House).
They got a gig together the weekend before demolition, packed the bottom floor
and played a blazing set. At the very end, walls were kicked apart, old cans of
paint strewn about, general wanton destruction to furniture, doors, windows etc.
The bug shack had come to an end and shortly thereafter, the Angered Wrecks. That
these tapes have survived to this day is all thanks to John Westhaver's archival
hoarding (even though the loss of a 90-minute session of the Angered Wrecks still
haunts John to this day). Includes full-size two-sided history insert and download
code with five bonus tracks; edition of 400.

"It has been a while since the release Myriam's acclaimed 2014 debut album, Not
So Deep as a Well (FTR 146-4LP). The intervening years have brought a smattering
of live performances, a bouquet of children, Trump's Pandemic, and much more . . .
Different concepts for a new album were broached, but the seed of Ma Délire was
planted when Myriam recalled a paper she written in university. It was about
Leonard Cohen's recording of "The Lost Canadian (Un canadien errant)" from Recent
Songs. Ostensibly a cover of an old Quebecois ballad, Cohen stripped away the
specificity of the lyrics, tying the song's titular figure to the archetype of
'The Wandering Jew'.The theme of this paper returned to Myriam when she had a
residency at the Old Mill in Le Bic, QC in August 2016. Benoit Chaput had turned
her on to the traditional tune 'Au Coeur de ma Délire,' from a 1971 album by
Dominique Tremblay and Philippe Gagnon. The song was so haunting, she decided
to record it right there in the Mill's boat repair workshop. That is the very
recording used here . . .This started Myriam musing about how the end of the
Catholic hegemony in Quebec had the unanticipated consequence of making people
think less of traditional Quebecois folk music, because so much of it was soaked
in the blood of the lamb. It made sense this music should be explored and updated
despite its dogmatic origins which Cohen had proved could be effectively expunged .
Just as the world was shutting down, Myriam was awarded a grant which allowed her
the time and space to fully investigate and develop this material. She had spent
years sifting through traditional music from Quebec, France and the U.S.,
highlighting parts of songs and ideas she liked, discarding some she found
abhorrent, and merging the good bits with her own writing or other cannibalized
shards. At some juncture she flashed on this work's common thread -- its thematic
roots were always in one type of romantic longing or another. And so, this album
came together during the dark days of the General Lockdown. Mixing vocal tracks
with instrumentals, singing in both French and English, using a syncretic blend
of original, modern and traditional lyrics, Ma Délire fearlessly wanders through
a universe of its own invention, daring us to open our minds wide enough to take
it all in.Myriam initially recorded with just guitar and vocals. But when she
began working with the sound engineer Tonio Morin-Vargas, he had some insightful
suggestions about additional instrumentation that might broaden the album's sound
without confounding it. Myriam had already planned to ask her friends, Bill Nace
and Chris Corsano, to add some things, so the whole shebang evolved as organically
as most great records do..."

Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records bring to you for your listening pleasure
Nudity Is God's Creation. A retrospective release of recordings dating from 2005
to 2010 of orgasmic interstellar mayhem. Reissued and for the first time available
domestically in the USA In 2004, a commune named Nudity, formed by four travelers
from the astral plane, appeared in Olympia, Washington. The founding members were
Dave Harvey (guitar) and Jon Quitty Quittner (bass, though Josh Haynes of the mighty
guitar fuzz scorchers Feral Ohms plays bass on the majority of the tracks featured
here), both of whom were former guitarists of Tight Bros From Way Back When and
Eryn Ross (drums) from Growling. A couple of self-distributed CDrs and a 12" on
Discourage were a visual akin to colored liquid sloshing around on a transparency
machine and were a pure drip feed for psych/kraut and Jap rock fiends around the
world as Julian Cope and Terrascope raved about them. Alas for whatever reason no
full-length LP arrived from the original line-up -- something that at last has been
rectified as now all these tracks have been brought together (along with some
unreleased gems and a couple of live bonus download tracks). The sonic ear candy
contained within the four sides of vinyl presented here go from Detroit fuzz blazing
face melters to acid trippin' head swirling raga's via The Flower Travelin' Band
and Hawkwind. Nudity were the masters and for those that missed out the first time
this double album was released -- don't make the same mistake a second time.
Terrascope gushed about Nudity: "This is seriously fucking good; one of those quite
literally extra-ordinary LPs that come along every once in a while which you just
know instinctively are going to be dug out and played, sniffed and caressed for
years."
