Teenage Rebel (7")
"Teenage Rebel" remains the anthem for every disaffected youth on the planet. Not included on The Avengers' infamous Pink album, this song is a two-minute package of pure adolescent vitriol. Backed with "Friends of Mine," a declaration of solidarity for the punks of San Francisco. Recorded in 1978 at the famed Iguana Studios on Folsom Street.
Bad Times
"Bad Times" is a kind of dark offshoot or reminiscence of Heading South. It is also one of four ep's or mini albums I've made in 2014. Each of them is small world or short novel, each is different but all of them are devoted to transitory moments and made under such influence. On seven inch vinyl there is only place for two short tracks but please treat it as standalone micro album. Two new exclusive tracks with a quite different style respect the last album released on Backwards ("Heading South…

Paranza Corta
*250 copies limited edition* "I’ll definitely listen to Eric Arn & Margeret Unknown’s frantic, two-guitar improvisation LP Paranza Corta again for sure. When these two really get going with their unusually-tuned, well mic’d acoustic interplay, it sounds like the perfect soundtrack to an ant colony documentary, sped up 100x. It’s pretty berserk." - Jay Hinman, Dynamite Hemorrhage

Testimony to the first encounter of the trio during a concert given at the cave12 on the 28.10.2020, on the same evening of the new Covid announcements which brought on a re-confinement in France, and eve to a six-month long shutdown of cultural places in Switzerland.

Drawing from the dense and intense sound material of the evening, Francisco M…

*In process of stocking* "This is also connected with exorcism. In the ruling system of medieval religion and politics, demons, devils, etc. were treated as viruses that could contaminate the governing system or as bad sectors inside the memory that caused malfunctions. Since the devil constructs a position value in the system through the body of a person possessed by the devil, it is necessary to find out the devil’s real name, that is, the prototype code or pattern information in order to expe…
