The Black Angels “Phosphene Dream” LP Preorder

The newest record from droned-out, zoned-out psychedelic masterminds The Black Angels is up for preorder.  If you’ve heard them before, you know what you’re getting here, 100% heavy deeds.  The LP comes on 180 gram vinyl for only $19.99.  You can also score a deluxe package with the record, cd, a poster, and a hoodie [...]

Our First In-House Vinyl Release: Lawrence English “A Colour For Autumn” LP

We are beyond proud to announce the very first vinyl release to come out of our in-house label (Sweat Lodge Guru), Lawrence English’s “A Colour For Autumn”.  This is actually a co-release with our good friends at Digitalis.  It has been one of our absolute favorite ambient drone albums since it came out on CD, [...]

Grails “Redlight” & “The Burden Of Hope” Repressed

Sorry guys, we don’t always exactly breaks the news over here at OMGV. Usually not that big of a deal but when it’s a band we’ve championed as hard as Grails… for shame! These two long out-of-print albums from one of the best bands in existence today are now available to order on the vinyl [...]

New Records at Thrill Jockey from Coil Sea, Imbogodom, and White Hills

Thrill Jockey has another beautiful batch of new records available this month.  First comes the self-titled album from Coil Sea, side project of Arbouretum’s Dave Heumann.  He arranged a group of musicians so diverse, the music is hard to explain or classify.  One thing is certain, this is grade-a improvisational rock, something almost anyone would enjoy.  It [...]

Nadja / Armchair Migraine Journey “Transmit Acoustique Abstraction One” LP

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, [...]

Suum Cuique “Midden” LP

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. If you, like myself, decide you must own a copy of this stellar analogue ambient album, you can get sorted [...]

Ilyas Ahmed “Between Two Skies / Towards The Night” 2xLP

The kind souls at Immune Recordings have dug up this beautiful double album by Ilyas Ahmed for re-release, the first time it’s ever been on vinyl.  “Between Two Skies / Towards The Night” was first released on CD-R in 2005, then again as a proper CD by Digitalis in 2007, and now in deluxe vinyl [...]

NNF Represses Ducktails & Sun Araw “Heavy Deeds” LPs

The perfect ending to your deadbeat summer. I know you all haven’t been doing shit except sitting on the porch melting in the heat for the past two months. If either of these records didn’t get played at least once while you were busy doing that, then it probably means that you don’t own either [...]

Moon Unit “Hell Horse and Heady Stratus” LP

Moon Unit (not Frank Zappa’s daughter!) return with another dose of hard-driven, in-the-red psychedelia; this time on the impeccably curated Blackest Rainbow label. The only thing staying between your skull and these blown-out psych burners is your face; and these fellows can melt that off for you, no problem. Check out a couple of tunes [...]

Ambarchi/Fennesz/Pimmon/Rehberg/Rowe “Afternoon Tea” 2xLP Preorder

Originally recorded and released in 2000, this massive set will once again ignite listener circuits with a brand new vinyl edition.  With Ambarchi and Rowe on guitars and Fennesz, Pimmon, and Rehberg on laptops, “Afternoon Tea” is a truly international all-star affair, one of the greatest pieces of experimental improvisation ever recorded.  Available for the [...]

Prince Rama “Shadow Temple” LP

I’m a fairly recent Prince Rama convert, having only fallen in love with them after their Animal Image Search record.  This new one, however, sounds downright fucking amazing.  “Shadow Temple” is the best thing they’ve ever done, plain and simple.  If there’s a limit to how good psychedelic Hare Krishna music can get, this just [...]

A New Batch of Great Releases from Important Records

Another update from Important Records brings another cache of amazing music.  First up is a pummeling new effort from Eleh, “Repose”.  This contains the seventeen-minute “Circle Two: Coastal Rotation For Dune Loop”, plus an etching on the b-side.  The record is $20 and can be ordered with some beautiful matching art prints.  Secondly, they’ve got [...]

Grouper “Hold/Sick” 7″ & Rafael Anton Irisarri “The North Bend” LP

Announcing new Grouper vinyl for sale is usually followed by phrases like “already gone” but it appears that Room 40 is still taking pre-orders for this soon-to-be scarce 7″. Yeah, the price after shipping can be pretty outrageous depending on where you live, but it’s still well under what this will be going for on [...]

Twinsistermoon “Then Fell The Ashes” LP

A new, full length effort from Natural Snow Buildings’ Mehdi Ameziane on the always excellent Blackest Rainbow label. Low-lit and folk-tinged psychedelia is lovingly etched into each and every groove on this record – the usual high quality music we have come to expect from Blackest Rainbow. Still available from the source at blackest-rainbow.moonfruit.com or available [...]

Pete Swanson & Rene Hell “Waiting For The Ladies” LP, Pete Swanson “Where I Was” LP (Self-Released)

Well, we better write this one up while it’s still in stock at Boomkat, even though it doesn’t technically have North American distribution yet. You may have heard, but the Yellow Swans are technically broken up now – so for that equal-parts-bliss-and-noise fix you’ve been craving you will have to look elsewhere. Solo material from [...]
