On Master of all Times, Paul Chain sinks deep into his singular doom‑psych continuum, braiding monolithic riffs, church‑organ atmospheres and glossolalic vocals into a slow, occult spiral where time feels stretched, fractured and finally irrelevant.

Proto-punk MADNESS from Ladbroke Grove! The complete studio works of the most dangerous band in late-60s Britain - three albums of teeth-grinding, psychedelic rock that make the MC5 sound like a boy band. Mick Farren and his merry gang of social deviants laid the blueprint for EVERYTHING that followed: punk, Hawkwind, Motörhead, the whole bloody lot. This is where it started.
The Social Deviants emerged from London's underground in 1967, fueled by the agit-prop satire of the Fugs, the sonic ter…
The complete studio works of one of the most uncompromising groups in the history of European avant-rock. Born from the ashes of Henry Cow in 1978, Art Bears distilled the political fury and musical adventurism of their parent band into three albums of dark, brilliant songs that remain as bracing and relevant today as when they were recorded.
The story begins with a schism. During sessions for what was intended as a Henry Cow album, disagreements arose over content - Fred Frith and Chris Cutler …
One of the most singular and influential groups to emerge from the European avant-garde, finally given the definitive treatment. This box gathers the complete studio works of Slapp Happy - the German/British/American trio whose blend of naïve pop, chanson, bossa nova and experimental textures created a template for intelligent art-pop that resonates to this day.
Formed almost as a joke in Hamburg 1972, when British experimental composer Anthony Moore - frustrated by Polydor's rejection of his av…
The complete and essential discography of one of the most uncompromising and intellectually rigorous bands to emerge from the Canterbury scene - finally available again in pristine Japanese mini-LP sleeve editions with remasters on high-quality SHM-CD!
Fred Frith and Tim Hodgkinson formed Henry Cow while students at Cambridge University in 1968, and what followed was a decade of radical, politically charged, absolutely brilliant music that drew equally from free improvisation, contemporary class…
Cosmic Rock Records proudly announces the long-awaited reissue of The Beat of the Earth, the ultra-rare debut album from the enigmatic experimental jam band The Beat of the Earth. Formed in 1967 amid the sun-soaked vibes of Orange County, California, this elusive artifact was originally released in minuscule quantities on Radish Records—a obscure private press label that barely scratched the surface of the era's underground scene.
Guided by the visionary Phil Pearlman (later the mastermind behin…
With La Nueva Normalidad, the Rome-based cult band Mushroom’s Patience comes together very deliberately as a tight three-piece: Raf Cerroni, also known as Dither Craf, who has been the artistic force and conceptual mind behind the band since its founding 40 years ago; J. Weber (of Austrian Nový Svět); and Léo Maury (of French Niedowierzanie). It seems I’m not the only one who sees this lineup as the perfect fit – a true supergroup for the band. Alongside their voices and compositions, each membe…
Wewantsounds is delighted to continue its Yoshiko Sai reissue program with the release of "Mikkou", the Japanese singer-songwriter's 2nd album released in 1976 on Black Records. The album, produced by ace arranger Isamu Haruna, keeps the same formula as "Mangekyou" with Yoshiko Sai's beautiful songs and dreamy vocals over cool funky arrangements, this time featuring legendary guitarist Masayoshi Takanaka. This is the first time "Mikkou" is widely available outside of Japan, with remastered audio…
In March 1969, the Velvet Underground, featuring Doug Yule now on bass, launched a nationwide tour that captured a pivotal moment in rock history. Among those dates was a memorable engagement at Dallas’ "End Of Cole Avenue" club—one of the rare live shows professionally recorded with a sound engineer on site. Previously, selections from these performances appeared in 1974 on the 1969: Velvet Underground Live album, but the sound was hampered by the use of third- or fourth-generation tapes, limit…
November 1978. Henry Cow disbands after a decade of music that redefined the boundaries of experimental rock. November 2022. Four founding members return to the stage. Not to look back - but to improvise the present.
Fred Frith (guitar, violin, electronics), Tim Hodgkinson (keyboards, saxophone, lap steel, electronics), Chris Cutler (drums, percussion), John Greaves (bass, vocals): reunited under the name Henry Now.
No scores. No prepared material. Only the instinct honed over fifty years of son…

Remastered from the original Mono master tapes at Abbey Road by Geoff Pesche. The fourth Donovan LP in our re-issue series is The Hurdy Gurdy Man, the sixth studio album (seventh overall) by Scottish singer-songwriter Donovan.

*2025 stock. 150 copies limited edition* In 1972, four design students at the now defunct Hornsey College of Art (HCA) in London decided to make a record; neither the result of nascent dreams of stardom nor of fastidiously developed musi-cianship. Bowes Road Band’s sole LP was simply the result of an impulse to create. With only fifty copies originally pressed, the LP’s Berlin flea market discovery revealed a foray into a delicately balanced world of psycho-trip meltdowns, rich jazz improvisatio…
