Sands Hollow

Half the Night is Candlelight Debut full length LP! Super limited run on a silkscreened sleeve.

Sands Hollow smoothly jump to the long format and still leave us wanting more with Half the Night is Candlelight. Keeping the sun in even their darker corners, they’ve made an excellent debut that plays out not as a “psych” album, but as a folk record that accidentally got weird.

John Wesley Coleman III

Will — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:59:00 +0000

Nightmare on Silly Street Vinyl LP
Back in 2008 we unleashed John Wesley Coleman on the world with his first ever full length release, American Trashcan. Before coming back to us with his fifth album he put out LPs on Daggerman, Certified PR, and Goner. As an experiment for this LP, Wes brought Morgan Coy some 4 track recordings of new songs (these appear as Side B), and Morgan rebuilt them into a multi layered cake (Side A).

Also don’t forget to play Wild Zoo! The video game featuring select jams, and the man himself in nintendo-man form.

Trans Upper Egypt

Akawa b/w New Vega (live) 7″ single

In the east end of Rome (Roma Est), a festering freak scene has fostered the dissonance, trance, analog tractor beams and focused, rhythmic tantrums of Trans Upper Egypt. Their Debut 7″ on WORT records was released recently in Italy, and now we have some copies here in Texas. This is a small taste of what’s to come on their debut LP, out on Monofonus early next year. Limited run, and even fewer in our possesion, so get them while you can.

The Pheromoans

Bar Rock 12″ vinyl EP

Fresh off of their amazing debut full-length It Still Rankles, The Pheromoans, the UK’s #1 DIY wedding band, have returned to the studio, imbuing their singular brand of ramshackle honesty with a deeper swagger than previously seen. That’s right, the success has gone to their heads, and like most multi-platinum-selling artists, they’ve decided to indulge with Bar Rock, a 7-song ep (mini album?) released in small quantities on the esoteric medium of 12” vinyl. 300 available to those in the know.

The Rebel

We couldn’t be happier to present to the world a new release from one of our favorite recording artists OF ALL FUCKING TIME! Ben Wallers aka The Rebel is the main man behind Country Teasers, and continues to amaze with the near constant flow of material out on a variety of labels including a 2007 release from Austin label Emperor Jones. Since playing in our garage in March of 2006 we’ve kept in contact (aka drunk g-chatting), and a couple months ago he was generous enough to send us 13 songs to choose from. We’ve selected our three favorites, and pressed them up proper on a 12″ EP titled THE FIVE YEAR PLAN. full color everything…. label, jacket, and screen printed B Side. Looks/Sounds amazing. Fans of Ronnie O’Sullivan will be extra stoked. Limited to only 300 copies. ORDER NOW! Cost is $10
