JUMP 7" 04.2013 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 004 THE HACKENSAW BOYS : ;IVE 'TILL THE SWEET BY AND BY LP 08.2013 A1 By And By A2 Flora A3 Ruby Pearl A4 FDR A5 Elzick's Farewell A6 Smilin' Must Mean Something B1 Red Mountain Wine B2 Proud For Now B3 Limosuin Lady B4 Radio B5 Dance Around --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 005 JOHNNY KENDALL & THE HERALDS : GIRL 7" 01.2014 A Girl 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! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 006 THE INFORMATION I FORESEE TROUBLE LP 03.2015 A1 Safe House A2 Grave Blues A3 I Foresee Trouble A4 Prey To The Wolves B1 The Lake B2 Losing My Mind B3 Bitter B4 Your Praying Is Idle 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! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 007 THE HACKENSAW BOYS WOLVES HOWLING 7" 04.2015 A Wolves Howling B The Hangman --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 008 HOLY BEGGARS HOLY BEGGARS LP .2016 A1 Use It A2 Motherless Child A3 One Great Leader A4 If Love Is A Fire B1 Love And Understanding B2 Blinded B3 The Hiss B4 Tender 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 009 THE SOUND OF IMKER TRAIN OF DOOMSDAY 7" .2016 A Train Of Doomsday B See Those Girls (Note : 7"/45 RPM + poster) 7" Philips 334 635 JF 1969 NE 7" Op Art OPART 018 1999 NE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 010 THE TWILIGHTERS NOTHING CAN BRING ME DOWN 7" 01.2017 A Nothing Can Bring Me Down B I Need You (Note : 7" , 500 copies) 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 011 CANSHAKER PI BOOMSLANG FOR ED 12" 06.2017 A1 Believe In Your Heart A2 Sensemaker A3 The Naked Flower Of The Wiz 1 A4 Why Suffer From Art In Life A5 Soundcheck In Monkeytown 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. www.shinybeast.nl CD Excelsior EXCEL 96495 2017 NE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 12 FUNGO BAT EP 7" 01.2018 Formed by the young talented Sam Verbeek as a bedroom recording project, Fungo Bat now is a fully operating live band that will surprise young and old with their modern garage indie punk rock. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 14 KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD : TEENAGE GIZZARD LP 03.2021 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! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 15 LES ROBOTS STANDOFF AT PLANET "T" 7" 10.2021 A STANDOFF AT PLANET "T" B ONLY RUST REMAINS --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MOOH 16 LONELY GIRLS REFLECTIONS 7" 10.2021 A REFLECTIONS B LATELY I'VE LET THINGS SLIDE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ======================================================================================= www.shinybeast.nl
