The Gaslight Anthem - Sink Or Swim - VINYL LP

Limited edition 180-gram, audiophile vinyl LP pressing of this album from the Fab Four comes housed in replicated artwork. The Beatles were just about to make their big transition from mop-topped British Invaders to the innovators of psychedelic rock in the mid- to late-1960s on 1965's InchRubber Soul.Inch The mega hit InchDrive My CarInch is the classic Beatle romantic rocker, but darker songs such as InchNowhere ManInch and InchThink for YourselfInch creep into the lineup. InchMichelleInch is another romantic ballad that won the Lennon & McCartney team a Grammy. This vinyl pressing contains the 2009 digital remaster of the album, making it sound more vibrant and electrifying than ever before.

Before there was Rimarimba, Suffolk-born, Felixstowe-based musician and home recording enthusiast Robert Cox assembled a cast of friends, some musicians and some not so much, for an experiment in group exploration and ecstatic expression under the name The Same. Sonically and gravitationally defined by Cox's collaboration with guitarist Andy Thomas (a partnership which formed in 1976 to record as General Motors), Sync or Swim, The Same's one and only album, also featured keyboards by Florence Atkinson and Paul Ridout, and vocals by Robert's sister Rebecca. Originally released in small cassette and vinyl quantities on Unlikely Records, Cox's imprint and a meeting point for many other musicians found at the fringe, the back cover of the original album jacket is as much a map of the personnel, place, and process fundamental to Sync or Swim as it is a table of contents for DIY music-making at the beginning of the 80s InchRecorded in peaceful Wiltshire between September 18th and October 6th 1981 (using a miscellany of home made devices) onto a Teac A-3300SX via a Teac A-3440. No noise reduction systems were used.Inch The additional equipment listed - a combination of consumer technology and DIY innovation - speaks to an unpretentious, improvisational ethos that pilots Sync or Swim, and Cox's career as a whole. Rimarimba, whose near complete discography Freedom To Spend made available again in 2019, showcased Cox's simultaneously hermetic and prolific creative process, while The Same celebrates making sound for sound's sake and the serendipity surrounding those moments. Wiltshire, home to the Stonehenge stone circles and a county of empty plains in the southwest of England, is worlds away from the commerce and industry of Glenn Branca's New York City or Neu's Düsseldorf. While The Same may feel in some ways like a British blend of these minimalist and motorik machinations,

The debut album from rising Texas Americana stars The Vintage Yell, available exclusively as a physical on vinyl LP and a CD featuring a pair of bonus tracks.
