Spock's Beard - Archaeoptimist - 140gm Red Vinyl - VINYL LP

The Black Angels bring the aura of mid-1966-the drilling guitars of early Velvet Underground shows, the raga inflections of late-show Fillmore jams, the acid-prayer stomp of Austin avatars the 13th Floor Elevators-everywhere they go, including the levitations on their second album, Directions To See A Ghost. Mid-Eighties echoes of Spacemen 3 and the Jesus and Mary Chain also roll through the scoured-guitar sustain and Alex Maas' rocker-monk incantations. But he knows what time it is. 'You say the Beatles stopped the war,Inch Maas sings in 'Never/Ever. They might've helped to find a cure/But it's still not over. ' Even so, this medicine works wonders. Inch - David Fricke, Rolling Stone When last we met The Black Angels, they were staring into the desert sun somewhere outside of Austin, Texas. Two years later, night has fallen and the spirits have come out. It's time for The Black Angels to provide Directions To See A Ghost. If you're familiar with Passover, the band's 2006 debut, you'll know that The Black Angels' music alone is enough to invoke spirits. There's a name for the band's sound Inchhypno-drone 'n' roll. Inch It's the sound of long nights on peyote, dreams of a new world order, and half-invented memories of the seamy side of 60s psychedelia. The Black Angels formed in Austin, Texas, in 2004, comprised of six people (now five) from very different backgrounds. Singer/vocalist Christian Bland is the son of a Presbyterian Pastor and was raised in a devoutly religious household. Bassist/guitarist Nate Ryan was born on a cult compound, and drummer Stephanie Bailey claims she's a descendent of Davy Crocket. She and Alex Maas (vocals/guitar) both believe a little girl in a red linen dress haunts the group's home. InchCivil War battlefields are prime spots for seeing ghosts,Inch says Bland.

FONTAINES D.C. / SKINTY FIA - Vinyl LP pressing. 2020's A Hero's Death saw Fontaines D.C. land a #2 album in the UK, receive nominations at the GRAMMYs, BRITs and Ivor Novello Awards, and sell out London's iconic Alexandra Palace. Now the band return with their third record in as many years Skinty Fia. Used colloquially as an expletive, the title roughly translates from the Irish language into English as 'the damnation of the deer'; the spelling crassly anglicized, and it's meaning diluted through generations. Part bittersweet romance, part darkly political triumph - the songs ultimately form a long-distance love letter, one that laments an increasingly privatized culture in danger of going the way of the extinct Irish giant deer Album Tracks 1. In Ar Gcroithe Go Deo 2. Big Shot 3. How Cold Love Is 4. Jackie Down the Line 5. Bloomsday 6. Roman Holiday 7. The Couple Across the Way 8. Skinty Fia 9. I Love You 10. Nabokov

Limited vinyl LP repressing in gatefold jacket. Off the Wall is the fifth solo studio album by Michael Jackson. It was released on August 10, 1979, following Jackson's critically well-received film performance in The Wiz. While working on that project, Jackson and Quincy Jones had become friends, and Jones agreed to work with Jackson on his next studio album. Recording sessions took place between December 1978 and June 1979 at Allen Zentz Recording, Westlake Recording Studios, and Cherokee Studios in Los Angeles, California. Jackson collaborated with a number of other writers and performers such as Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Rod Temperton. Five singles were released from the album. It was his first solo under Epic Records, the tag he would record on until his death roughly 30 years later. Album Tracks 1. Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough 2. Rock with You 3.
