Sorry for the lack of Monday morning updates. OMGV will be back in full swing tomorrow morning…
As we try to fix some known issues with the site (a recent problem with millions of WordPress sites), I am going to hold off on posting any updates till Monday. Everything should be sorted by then. Cheers!!!
The last album by Quantic’s Flowering Inferno was excellent, but was only available on vinyl via a series of extremely limited and expensive import 45rpm 7″s. The new album, Dog With A Rope, is getting the proper treatment – pressed on two piping hot slabs of analog vinyl. Dubbed-out tropicalia is done better by no [...]
“Bong Rippin’ Labyrinth Metal!” indeed. Besides being chock-full of the aforementioned, the new album Full of Hell from Howl also features expansive gatefold artwork by shirtsanddestroy.com main man, Eyeball Begley. Hot weather and heavy metal means you’re gonna need some new t-shirts soon. But none of that really has to do with how bong-rippingly labyrinthian [...]
The Predicate Production Guild may sound strange in your mouth, but it should sound familiar in your ears as it is actually the work of a very well-known and prolific producer (ahem*prefuseseventythree*ahem). Limited to 500 copies (aka will not last), listen to samples and purchase at finderskeepersrecords.com. Prices start at £18 shipped in the UK.
Mike Klay turned his popular “Track 2″ design into a t-shirt. It’s available in sizes S-XL for $22 shipped. Visit the Gigposters.com Classifieds.
Just when you thought you couldn’t possibly spend any more money on records today, along comes this sultry gem. Following in the trail blazed by such forward thinking companies as Domino’s and Subway, Thrill Jockey is now offering a seven-fold 12″ subscription series to mailorder customers only. So if you have not ordered from their [...]
We first posted about this damn near 4 months ago. Looks like the hour of reckoning is finally at hand, test presses were finally approved and lo and behold, this is actually ready to order from Important Records. Besides the recent Sub Pop Singles Series 7″, I believe this is the first official documentation of [...]
Folk-hop? Hippie-hop? Hip-folk? I don’t know what you call this type of stuff, I think someone might have once coined the phrase “indietronica” but I hate that tag almost as much as those three I just made up. This stuff falls somewhere in the spectrum between strummy, sunny folk tunes and glitched-out, down-tempo beats. All [...]
If you missed this on Record Store Day, it looks like Polyvinyl Records mailorder has got some in. This is a 9×7″ boxset and was supposedly exclusive to RSD buyers but is now available on the web, as most things eventually are. $40 at polyvinylrecords.com. edit: So Polyvinyl is raising their price as these continue [...]
Did you, like myself, miss out on this RSD exclusive from Thrill Jockey featuring tracks from Tortoise, Mountains, Trans Am, Double Dagger and White Hills with a screen-printed cover limited to 900 pieces? Well then you now, like myself, can order it directly from the Thrill Jockey website for $12 + shipping. This is for [...]
This is now available for $20 as a preorder from bluecollardistro.com. You can also get some cups and a t-shirt and some other useless shit.
Finally. These reissues were originally supposed to come out last year I think. Well it looks like they are finally seeing the light of day this spring. Classic fusion-era Miles Davis reissued on vinyl by Legacy Records. For my money, it doesn’t get any better than “In a Silent Way” but “Bitches Brew” is no [...]
Another album long overdue for a repressing. Subliminal Sounds have repressed this blown-out, psychedelic monster double LP from Sweden’s Dungen. With a $30 price tag the good stuff ain’t cheap, but if you love this band as much as I do and don’t own this album on vinyl, then you know its worth it. You [...]
This double LP offering from Finland’s finest and weirdest was recorded live for WMFU in September 2007. Rather than try to come up with some bizarre and convoluted description of this band’s sound, I’ll just point you to some mp3 samples here. Make sense? If it does to you, then you’ll be pleased to know [...]
