Fatcat UK just will not stop with the Direct Metal Master reissue series. I’m not complaining, but my pocket book surely is. This time they are dropping two excellent releases that have NEVER before been released on vinyl (well, there is that bootleg of Weirdo Rippers still out there). These are limited and likely won’t [...]

This has been up for preorder for a couple of weeks now, but today marks the official release date of the Relapse debut from Brooklyn’s Tombs. This gatefold LP features some amazing artwork by Thomas Hooper and comes on brown or black 180gm vinyl (as usual, 100 have been pressed on clear for Relapse friends [...]

Today marks the reissue of FOUR classic Murder City Devils albums.  If you are a fan of this band, it is truly your lucky day.  Sub Pop represses of “Empty Bottles, Broken Hearts”, “In Name And Blood”, “S/T”, and “Thelema” (previously a 10″, now a 12″) all hit the shelves today, and they are all [...]

Moutains, the Brooklyn-based experimental duo, just released their first record for Thrill Jockey Records today, titled “Choral”.  Their music is hard to describe, they play a sort of experimental drone-folk, melding together acoustic instruments and field recordings.  This is slow, dense stuff, with most songs clocking in at over 8 minutes.  All that being said, [...]

To tide you over until their new full-length drops this Fall, Brother Ali and producer ANT have teamed up for a brand new EP.  “The Truth Is Here” features nine tracks total (seven new/unreleased tunes and two rare b-sides), plus a second LP with instrumental versions of all nine songs.  As if that weren’t enough, [...]

Here’s another chance to get the best metal album of 2007 on vinyl.   Out of print pretty much everywhere, Baroness’ Red Album is now available exclusively at Shirtkiller.  They are selling some copies of the Relpase pressing (black 180g 2xLP, gatefold sleeve, amazing artwork, etc) for $18.  In other words, they are offering the [...]

In addition to hip-hop, Stones Throw Records also releases some of the best funk records around (usually teamed up with Egon’s Now-Again label).  This reissued 2001 album by The Whitefield Brothers, an offshoot of the Poets of Rhythm, is no exception.  You can buy “In The Raw” on 2LP for $15 now, plus it comes [...]

Sub Pop just posted up a couple interesting new preorders.  The first is the new album by Handsome Furs, a duo featuring Dan Boeckner (aka the non-Spencer Krug vocalist in Wolf Parade).  “Face Control” comes out March 3, but can be preordered now on LP for $12.  Secondly, looks like there’s a brand new Mark [...]

There’s not really too much to say about Nathan Daniel William’s Wavves project that hasn’t already been said, it’s just killer sun-drenched California lo-fi pop.  If huge walls of fuzz with pop melodies hiding underneath are your thing, you will definitely love this.  Preorder the new self-titled LP for $15 now (plus receive MP3′s instantly) [...]

If the music on this site interests you, chances are The Thermals need no introduction.  They have a new album coming out soon, and you can now preorder the first single on a limited white piece of 7″ vinyl.  It also features a new b-side, plus demo versions of each song.  Pick one up for [...]

Potent little dose of late-night, red-eyed techno here. Call it dubstep or IDM or whatever, all I know is that this 12″ debut EP from Mount Kimbie is flying off of the shelves as we speak. Its already gone out of stock at Boomkat, but you can still find it in a handful of other [...]

Stones Throw just released the next CD in Madlib’s excellent “Beat Konducta” series. If you order from the Stones Throw site, the CD will come with a free fan club 45. Now we all know that free 45s from Stones Throw are pretty awesome, but we also know that CDs pretty much blow. Lucky for [...]

Amazing news. Not much needs to be said about these two albums. Here’s the description from the label – • 180gm Heavyweight vinyl Double Albums • Direct Metal Mastering (DMM) Remastered at Abbey Road • Limited Edition Re-issues in the same ‘deluxe’ vinyl packaging as the original versions • Agaetis Byrjun – Printed in Silver [...]

Zombi fans, you will probably want to grab “Vaalbara”, the new solo record by one half of the aforementioned vintage synth powerhouse.  This is pretty much sold out everywhere, but Moore is selling a few copies himself.  It’s a two-song ambient/drone record, is pressed on 180g vinyl, and limited to only 300 copies.  You can [...]

Magic Bullet Records just released this brand new split by post-rock heroes This Will Destroy You (two new songs) and Lymbyc Systym (three new songs).  The LP, pressed on your choice of clear or black vinyl, also includes a free download card.  This won’t hit other stores for about two months, so grab one for [...]
