BATTIATO, FRANCO - FETUS
Fetus, housed in a outrageous cover (reproducing a foetus) was definitely a prog album, but a very original one, with a minimalist sound mainly based on the use of a VCS3 synth, unusual lyrics, complex arrangements |

DEWOLFF - STRANGE FRUITS AND UNDISCOVERED ...
...Plants". Not counting the extended vinyl version of their amazing debut EP, this is the first official full lenght from Holland's juvenile psych rock wizards! Recorded in Belgium on analogue equipment, and mixed in NYC, the album contains 11 brand new tracks in which the three piece continue to explore their universe, coloured by the sounds and spirits of f.i Jimi Hendrix, Cream, Pink Floyd and Deep Purple. DeWolffs beyond doubt are one of Holland's very best rock bands! |

HEADS (UK) - TILBURG (2LP)
Limited edition vinyl version of the Live In Tilburg mail order only CD issued by the band via their website, and rightly given album of the month status on Julian Cope's Head Heritage site. In 2008 THE HEADS were convinced to undertake their first tour of more than three dates in over 7 years, by going on a seven-date jaunt in the UK and Europe with fellow travelers the Wooden Shjips. As ever the Heads taped most of the performances, and in Tilburg, they got an audience tape, desk tape, and stage tape, so, with the aid of the mighty Latch they put together this here "Bootleg". A perfect snapshot of the Heads in full flight, as heavy and as dense as they can get, yet soaring far off into the vapors with their inimitable psych noise blastings. Much ignored in the UK for the past decade or so, the Heads might well be getting a wave of recognition right now, and this is a very good way to immerse oneself into the world of the Heads. Limited edition of 500 copies. |

BIHLMAIER, DIETER -SELECTION- - THE SWF SESSION 1973
From the vaults of radio station SWF (today SWR) and previously unreleased, this fantastic group with a rather unusual instrumentation (flutes, bass, drums) blow your ears away. They played music you probably haven't heard before. Call it Free rock, living new jazz or just extremely good music, this trio is far out of any limitations. The music of the Dieter Bihlmaier Selection possesses genuine power, where explosive eruptions alternate with lyric moments. On repeated listening the music develops an irresistible pull that we wish to share with all lovers of "good music". These recordings are without any doubt not only of high musical value, they are also an absolute rarity, since unlike the two albums of the Dieter Bihlmaier Selection, they were recorded just in the trio formation flute, bass and drums and without the participation of the vibraphone player. The SWF-Recordings 1973 of Dieter Bihlmaier Selection are an outstanding musical achievement. CD comes with full coloured 12pages booklet including band history and a lot of photos. Digitally remastered from the original master tape. If you want to listen to more.. listen to Dieter Bihlmaier Selection The SWF-Recordings 1973. |

STUD - THE SWF-SESSION 1972
Another true classic from the SWF (German Radio Station) vaults comes with the STUD recordings from summer 1972. At that time the STUD members had said "farewell" to their English record label Decca and spent most of their time on the Continent, mainly in Germany where they were rather successful. With John Weider on violin and guitar they had just an album (September) out on BASF and played a lot of Club gigs and festivals. During their 1972 tour they were invited by radio station SWF to play a recording session at radio stations main studio U1 in Baden-Baden. There were two sessions that took place in April and Mai 1972. STUD recorded titles from their first and second album but varied the material to give the recordings a special claim. From hard rocking "Good Things", to fourteen minutes epic title "Horizon" and shining ballad "Make Me High" these recordings are an impressive prove of the bands musical bandwidth and the bandmembers excellent technical skills. CD comes with band story. Digitally remastered from the original tape. |

STONE BREATH - SHEPHERDESS AND THE BONE-WHITE BIRD
Stone Breath returns with their first album in over 5 years, "The Shepherdess and the Bone-White Bird;" a visionary creation of Eastern-influenced rural acid folk. From fingerpicked acoustics; to clawhammer banjo excursions; to the side-long exaltation that is "The Shepherdess of the Fiery Wheels," Stone Breath manifest their best work to date; an entire set of originals with the strange and beautiful harmonies and instrumentation which graced their past work. They are clear in sight, united in purpose, and shining in the darkness. Comes with booklet featuring lyrics, info, and full psychedelic illuminations. |

Anthem Red musically continued where Sixty Stories ended.

DES ARK - LOOSE LIPS - SINK SHIPS
Des Ark is primarily singer/guitarist Aimee Collet Argote. She had previously been involved with Rubeo, which released a 7" on feminist label Mr. Lady in 1998. Des Ark began in 2001 as a full band but eventually sized down to the duo of Argote and drummer Tim Herzog (also of Milemarker). Exotic Fever Records released a split 7" with Bellafea in October 2004, followed in 2005 by the first full-length, Loose Lips Sink Ships, through Bifocal Media/Bakery Outlet Records. The latter was recorded by J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. Herzog left the band in September 2005, leaving Argote to continue touring and recording as Des Ark. In early 2007, Lovitt issued a split CD with Ben Davis, Battle of the Beards. ~ Kenyon Hopkin, All Music Guide |

HAWNAY TROOF - GET UP RESOLUTION: LOVE
Hawnay Troof is the amalgamated accident of no-nonsense rap and no-fi electronics. Two nos rubbing shoulders with the concise wit too much time in present Bush Jr-America has spawned. The explicit non-glamour lyrical stabs and stacatto-flavoured beats dissects the listener's mind while still pushing the contorted audience up on the floor. Thirty minutes of an expressway to benign paranoia and back is the drug generated through the live shows; endorphins retort and the urge to dance is no less than what Devo ever accomplished with Whip It. Hawnay Troof has in the past collaborated with many of the most talented people comprising the alternative music scene today (The SoftPink Truth, Stereo Total, Gravy Train!!! etc.). |

Nathalie's voice is so powerful, and just cuts right through everything in the room, along with her pounding guitar riffs that makes you wonder if there is someone hidden round back playing away at a bass. Thick PJ Harvey style riffs over Lucy's pounding bass drum matches the rhythm of every heartbeat ... * |

SIXTY STORIES - ANTHEM RED
See now theres this really fine line when it comes to doing catchy, poppy punk right without it sounding generic and dated. And of course there's one country that pulls it off better than the rest of the world, every time - it's Canada. From the Bonaduces through to Painted Thin via Porter Hall, Weakerthans and Propagandhi Canada knows what the fuck is up (and I think the country definitely has labels like Endearing Records to thank for that)... well Sixty Stories features Paul Furgale from Painted Thin, and there's definitely a latter Painted Thin (and Bonaduces) vibe here - those "from the heart" slacker style vocals, the unbelievable hooks and just an all around greatness in its honesty. What seperates this band from Painted Thin though is the addition of "keyboards and beeps" that just add to the awesome popiness of it all. Now were not talking Get Up Kids rip off here, although I think fans of that "lost it more than Shades Apart" piece of shit may well think Sixty Stories are a great band...-The Company With The Golden Arm. |

Inferno #7, released on long-playing vinyl in Europe by The Company With The Golden Arm! The Inferno has a Bass player for the first time-despite what the Village Voice may have told you the Tuba has been gone for quite a while, and so for this we got much punkier. I finally answered the long avoided question, "What exactly were you in Jail for?", recorded our 2-song homage to the actor Peter Lorre, bragged about being from New Jersey, and the sang the saddest song ever written, "Friend To The Friendless," by Ms. Yula Beeri. Recorded in Brooklyn at the redoubtable Vibromonk Studios by Tamir Muskat and Danny Shatzky. So good. |

The World/Inferno Friendship Society give you your damn soul back. It's been up all night, thinks everything is hysterical, and keeps humming tunes about Halloween and heroes, love lost and found, and the chivalry of crime. It sweats like whiskey and cries real red wine. It's chiding your friends for being so sad, mumbling, "You bouncers don't scare me one bit," and yelling "I joined a punk-rock band to break stuff, not to sit around lawyers' offices!" at inappropriate moments. Fifteen new songs by NYC's original international Punk-Rock Orchestra of elegant and angry Gentlemen and Ladies produced by Hardcore legend Don Fury and released by New Jersey Pioneer Punk-Rock label Chunksaah! The piano croons, the guitars shout, the drummers threaten, saxophones rip you from where you are tied to the mast, the accordion just stole your wallet, the string section is whispering in your ear, "don't be a jerk," and boys and girls are singing in harmony "only anarchists are!...pretty!" Life is a cabaret, the circus is leaving town, don't forget the struggle, don't forget the streets. |

GUTHRIE, WOODY - DUST BOWL BALLADS
This is the first record that "the Oklahoma cowboy" recorded in NYC after his arrival in 1940 for Alan Lomax as part of his work for the Library of Congress. Originally released as three separate 78 rpm records, these are Guthrie's tales about one of the most dire periods in rural America, the Dust Bowl era (also known as the Dirty Thirties). Repressed by Smithsonian Folkways in 1964 during the American folk revival years, this quintessential work proves that Guthrie was a true minstrel of the other face of America, the one that you can't find in history books: tales of poverty, migration, storms, illness, hunger and harsh criticism of the American government, incapable of committing to equality. Guthrie would become very popular among city radicals and idealists, and thanks to records like this, a true icon of social activism in the cradle of capitalism. |
