About this product
Limited vinyl LP pressing. Four great bands, two great labels and two continents meet on this stellar mini-LP. Frequent collaborators Slumberland Records and Fortuna POP! Team up to bring you Continental Drift, a smashing eight song sampler of some of the finest pop out there in 2016. Baltimore's Wildhoney have been making music together since 2011, forging a fresh sound from raw materials of shoegaze, punk and good old indiepop. 2015 saw the of their debut LP and follow-up EP, and now we've snagged two top-quality exclusive tunes for this compilation. East London's Tigercats jangly, effervescent pop nods to their punk roots and spikes the pop punch with anthemic choruses and massive, crunching guitars. Their second album 'Mysteries' was a huge step forward for the band and the two new songs included here point to even greater things in the future. Philadelphia's Mercury Girls are one of the most talked about new bands in ages. Featuring members of Literature, Little Big League and Pet Milk, Mercury Girls have a gorgeous, layered sound that combines post-punk dynamics with soaring/jangling guitars, fantastic melodies and expertly-arranged tunes. Their recent single InchArianaInch turned a lot of heads, and their two contributions contained herein should make us all quite excited for their in-progress debut album. Edinburgh, Scotland's The Spook School are surely the most *fun* band taking-on issues of gender and identity today, writing queer-pop anthems that are noisy, tuneful, sharply-observed and outrageously catchy. Citing influences as varied as T-Rex, C86 and Buzzcocks, they tell stories that are as multi-faceted and complex as modern life and sexuality itself, but also universal in their optimism. The title of their recent album 'Try To Be Hopeful' sums it up well, and their two songs here are up there with the band's finest.

BACK IN PRINT - PRICE INCREASE - Cindy Lee, the performance and songwriting vehicle of Canadian artist Patrick Flegel (who fronted influential indie group Women earlier), previously stunned listeners with Act Of Tenderness, a heart-wrenching statement informed by the noirish core of celebrity, and has continued to enchant with every album, including the startling What's Tonight To Eternity released earlier this year. Model Express originally appeared as a self-released edition of 100 gold cassettes. The arch, filmic drama of Cindy Lee's songwriting-realized with keyboards, guitars, aching voice and collaged, lo-fi production-traverses a wide range of emotional and sonic terrain. The red velvet psych-pop of InchWhat Can I DoInch gives way to the fluid InchDiamond RingInch like radio bursts from space. Model Express finds Flegel at both their most experimental and immediately melodic, and this first-time vinyl recognizes the collected tracks as a pillar in the Cindy Lee catalogue. Cindy Lee (who uses the gender neutral pronoun they) is a drag persona drawing on suburban closet queens and mid-century divas. In keeping with Flegel's interest in the faultlines of identity, gender expression, performance and media, Model Express delivers an intense and diverse set of unforgettable songs.
