Health and Efficiency
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Expanded reissue of the EP released between their two albums. The title track is the most direct and coolest song in This Heat's history, with a more clearly song-like appeal than the first and even more intense rhythmic bursts. On the other hand, the acoustic drone ‘Graphic/Varispeed’ is also included, and is a perfect example of the two sides of This Heat's sound. Graph…
This Heat
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Long-awaited reissue of the first This Heat, an astonishing band that displayed a unique musicality where strong beats, heart-stopping songs, improvisation and relentless sound manipulation all coexisted! Their sound, which is a legitimate evolution of progressive rock from the likes of King Crimson and CAN, but with added impulsiveness/physicality, responds to the post-p…
Pylons
* 250 copies edition limited. 2024 stock * The hipness and success of London punk-explosion photocopy fanzine Sniffin' Glue was almost entirely due to the irreverent, pugnacious sincerity of its founder/spark-plug Mark Perry. That Perry should form a band (Alternative TV) seemed a natural progression; that it was any good at all a surprise; that it maintained a stance utterly disdainful of compromise a small miracle.” The Good Missionaries emerged, phoenix-like, from the ashes of Alternative TV …

Strange Terrain
After exiting Buster Summers Express, Leeds-based songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Derek Noy formed Jan Dukes De Grey with woodwinds player, Michael Bairstow, soon opening for Pink Floyd and the Who, though LPs Sorcerer and acid folk masterpiece Mice And Rats In The Loft sold poorly. After line-up changes, in 1977, Noy assembled a new crew for Strange Terrain, cut at Brittania Row with Roger Waters co-producing, but the album’s curious mix of post-prog, acid rock and punk was deemed unsuitable f…

Laetitia
*2022 stock* Italian cult band in which play 2 former members of Ain Soph as well as other well known musicians of the Roman underground. At the time of the last release by Circus Joy “Improvvisa Azione Paganini", noise was turned into pleasure and sex; in their new work, "Laetitia", there is no pleasure in noise without sorrow , and sorrow takes over... this CD is not only a sonic tribute to Pop-Art, as its cover clearly shows, or to the noise-psychedelic rock of Velvet Underground (one of the …
Boulder Blues
*In process of stocking* "Every album from the band, whose core members currently reside in the UK and Israel, feels like an invitation into a space outside the mundane. When playing live, visuals from Danil Gertman, drawn and projected in real time, are an intrinsic part of their performance. Like those visuals’ movement from amorphous constellations of colour into concrete characters and landscapes, Staraya Derevnya swing from flurries of abstract folk sounds into propulsive, swampy grooves. I…
Lights in the Center of Your Head
**300 copies** Great debut album by the new trio led by Detroit / Boston guitar legend Roger Miller. Roger has been going at it since he was a tiny baby, with a recording career that stretches back to Sproton Layer in 1970. He is still probably best known for his work with Mission of Burma, but cognoscenti wallow in his work with the original Destroy All Monsters, F.U.K., Empool, the Farmers, his crazy solo stuff, and recent jamming with M2. With Trinary System, Roger manages to get wild trio ak…
