Shirts and Destroy will release an exclusive Hope Conspiracy package tomorrow.

These packages will be $45, and [...]
“Japanoise” superstars Boredoms have some vinyl available domestically, something that definitely doesn’t happen every day. Thrill Jockey has released “Super Roots 10″, a 2xLP pressed at 45rpm by the fine folks at RTI. It has an original tune, a remix by Lindstrøm, and two other remixes. $14 at ThrillJockey.com.
I won’t pretend like I am into this band, hell, I’ve never even heard them before, but I am very much into the Drew Millward artwork. Looks like Drew killed the front and back cover for this. You can get it on white vinyl, which is limited to 800, for $11.99. You can also get [...]
For solo guitar enthusiasts, it doesn’t get much better than Sir Richard Bishop. I’m not an enthusiast necessarily, but While My Guitar Violently Bleeds stands out easily in the sea of post-Takoma, finger-pickin’ long-hairs thanks to the variety of mood and texture present on the album. From middle-eastern ditties and psyched-out, fuzzy freakouts to one [...]
Second pressing of this absolutely essential seven inch split from Thou and Black September. This Gilead Media pressing is looking significantly handsomer than its predecessor. On transparent red vinyl, with new artwork and a poster, and even remastered songs – this is the pressing to get. Pick it up for $5.25 along with The Retaliation [...]
I wouldn’t exactly count this as one of the Boy’s finest, but Hello Nasty is certainly no slouch. At the very least, the Beastie Boys were able to prove they were still underground relevant by featuring the talents of Mixmaster Mike and Lee “Scratch” Perry on an album that you could buy at the mall. [...]
After languishing in OOP obscurity for several months, the debut album from these drone worshiping Texans is finally back in print. Only difference in the packaging is a thicker jacket and no embossing this time around. $20 will get it for you, that’s a bit better than paying $50+ on eBay for the first pressing. [...]
If the recent “death ambient” releases on Type have been leaving you feeling a bit glum, then this should be welcome news. The new album from Rameses III is a return to the less menacing sounds in the Type Records catalogue – i.e. pastoral, ambient folk. And who doesn’t need more of that, right? This [...]
“Free” is a distribution model that’s hard to argue with. We like Koushik. We like free shit. We thought you might too, so we’re telling you that for the next week you can download Koushik’s Beep Tape fo’ free-ninety-nine at the Stones Throw website. What a class act those guys are. If you decide you [...]
For a band that only released two albums proper, there certainly is no shortage of Joy Division vinyl to go around. This is probably going to be a step above most of the bootlegs, outtakes and interviews currently floating around seeing as how it was recorded live with the late, great John Peel on his [...]
