Scene frontrunners Olde English Spelling Bee have a whole new batch of records up for preorder.

Beta-lactum Ring have a ton of new records coming, including this stunning split from Nadja and Armchair Migraine Journey. Nadja’s side is some heavy doom-drone, as per usual, with AMG bringing a more experimental approach to the b-side. This package is on 220 gram vinyl, comes in a book-bound sleeve, has an edition of 200, [...]
The fine folks at Inflated Records have released a vinyl version of Ducktails’ live performance on WFMU from late 2008. Smooth summer vibes here, even when recorded in the dead of winter. Grab the LP for $13.99 at InflatedRecords.net.
I don’t know a whole lot about this album. Sometimes you just listen to some soundclips and read a description and know you have to have something. I invite you to do the same at boomkat.com.

Those in need of a dose of evil can now fill their prescriptions at stickfiguredistro.com. The [...]
Mr. Blackshaw’s compositions have come along way since his bare and finger-picked guitar stylings on albums of yore. The new arrangements are fully fleshed out with a variety of instrumentation, and All Is Falling marks the first Blackshaw album featuring electric guitar. Say what?! Crazy, I know. The electric revolution can be bought on vinyl [...]
