        A       Jump
        B       Moj

Milkcow's third release is the first contemporary band on the label. Bruut! is a Dutch
jazzcombo that plays groovy, swinging and brutal instrumentals, with squealing organs,
wailing saxophone and a supertight yet authentic sounding rhythm section. Milkcow's
smart young scout spotted them at one of their excellent live shows and was so
bedazzled by their performance skills that he immediatly contracted them for an
exclusive single. The two sides on this here 7" single are called 'Jump' and 'Moj'.
Both tracks are as short and energetic as the titles forecast and could just as easily
fit on a compilation filled with 60's jazz grooves as in a Tarantino movie. Record
Store Day release, limited to 300 copies.

        B       You Tell Me Why

7"      RCA Victor      47 9554         1966    NE

The second release in Milkcow's 'Holy Grails Of Nederbeat' series is Johnny Kendall
& The Heralds' 'Girl'. At last, an official reissue of this garage freakbeat monster!
Kendall and his group came from Amsterdam and had a hit with 'St. James Infirmary' in
1964. They made their only LP the very next year, but for genuine beat-freaks 'Girl',
from 1966, is the real deal. Fuelled with a loud and crunchy Kinks-style guitar riff,
and typical Dutch-English vocals, it's a genuine killer song. This is a must-have for
anyone who loves the rocking sixties Nederbeat sound. Limited edition, so act now or
cry later!

        B5      You Got Me Thinking

CD      Smoking Man Music SMM 201 5001  2015    NE

A hymn to hopelessness, an ode to embittered souls. This dark and immersive platter
will lead you to the largely stretched meadows, that are not green but dry. Very dry.
Although grittier in sound than its predecessor, the band plays more dynamic than
before and this 2015 album delivers a kind of Denver sound from the Lowlands.
The sermons of Nick Cave and David Eugene Edwards are never too far away, just like
the haunting spheres of Calexico and the lonesome Townes Van Zandt. Alternative folk
with raven dark rock-edge!

For those about to indie-rock, Holy Beggars salute you! Here's their long anticipated
debut full length. The band fronted by creative songsmith Jan Teekens presents an
adventurous ride through eight well crafted and arranged songs; all going for the
perfect balance from up-tempo rockers to more moody folk inspired tunes to longer
spaced jams. It's hard to pin the Beggars sound, but we can heartily recommend this
fantastic record to fans of Neil Young, The Pixies, Beck and Radiohead. The whole
package is illustrated by the talented Joren Hans.

7"      Mark VII        D-1023          1968    US

Back on 7-inch, here's a brain melting Texas garage psych monster from 1968. 'Nothing
Can Bring Me Down' became an instant cult hit when it started appearing on garage punk
comps, and Pussy Galore and others bashed out their cover versions. The Twilighters
recorded this sole 45 at a club named Mark VII, also the name of the record label.
When the guys entered the recording space they only had one original song, the moody
garage ballad 'I Need You'. Front man Jay White wrote 'Nothing...' on the spot, since
the single also needed a flip. However, the result, a fuzzed up mixture of psych a la
Hendrix and Cream, and '60s punk, was so exciting that it became the A-side.
This wonderful reissue comes with a '60s styled company-sleeve and a postcard.

        A1      Believe In Your Heart
        A2      Sensemaker

        B1      Shaniqua
        B2      Christmas
        B3      Bruises On This Tortured Mind Of Might
        B4      Looking For Love On Ibiza
                (Note : 12"/45 RPM , 100 black/400 red copies)

The young bunch of Canshaker Pi squeezes out songs faster than you can squeeze out
the pimples on your cheek. Only half a year after the debut-LP on Excelsior Recordings
here's the follow-up. 'Boomslang For Ed' collects the band's two EP's as one twelve
incher and shows off well how the quartet gained its infamous live reputation: this
is catchy, heavy guitarnoise in the tradition of the noisy grunge bands from the early
'90s, but with the additional coolness of bands such as Pavement and Dinosaur Jr.

MOOH    13      THE MOTIVES             THE WORLD IS A TRAPEZIUM        7"      06.2018

The Motives were formed by five British servicemen, who were stationed at the RAF in
West Germany and released an EP 'The World Is A Trapezium' on the Dutch Telstar label.
Recorded in 1967, only 120 copies were pressed, thus making this an extremely rare and
near impossible to find EP. Four brilliant psych garage freakbeat songs with killer
lead guitars courtesy of Tom Winter, later of Opus. Official reissue, approved by the
original bandmembers and with superb sound quality, as we're used from the Milkcow
label.

King Gizzard, the most prolific indie-psych-and-whathaveyou group on the planet made
so many albums that we lost count. 'Teenage Gizzard' compiles their earliest EPs.
Here we hear the seven headed beast making its first steps. Surfin through the garage,
drenched in reverb and soaked in echo. Primitive, psychedelic and very catchy! Pressed
on lizard green wax, limited to 300 copies!
