Wipers - Over The Edge - CASSETTES

*Simply obliterating any conception of THE Wipers as a mere punk band, GREG SAGE released this follow-up to Is This Real? in 1981-a sophisticated, overwhelming response to the evil times marked by the turn of the decade. Broken into six long songs, Youth Of America is a much colder, harrowing experience than the teen angst of their debut. Vocally Sage comes off as sleep-deprived and forsaken, snarling not only at his own predicament but at the predicament of the entire world. Mastered from the original tapes by SAGE, pressed on high quality vinyl, and packaged in sturdy, old-style heavy-duty jackets.

Vinyl LP pressing. 2024 . There's a palpable urgency coursing throughout Zero Point Energy's kinetic and inviting debut album Tilted Planet. Formerly based in Atlanta, where they helmed two-fifths of the beloved but now defunct band Warehouse, the now Brooklyn-based duo of Genesis Edenfield and Ben Jackson trade careening guitar riffs and lead vocals in a thrilling back-and-forth. The duo reflect on literal and esoteric transformations across 12 resonant tracks, posing questions about the self and it's resilience. It's as engaging as it is unflinching, and ultimately, a document of two close friends rediscovering the anchoring spark of their magical collaboration.

McQqeen is a noisy punk band from Athens, GA. The quartet's sophomore , II, finds them shedding the garage-punk roots with the addition of a new rhythm section to create a sound that is equal parts sinister and catchy. They balance groovy misanthropic dissonance and taut downstroke riffage, all drenched in a bath of psychedelic reverb. The band began as a songwriting outlet for frontman/guitarist Al O Vera (Shaved Christ, Shade), soon joined by guitarist Thomas Kim. Lucca Carver and Alex Baum stepped in to record their sophomore LP. Carver stuck around to join the project along with Cole Johnson (Coma Therapy) to round out the lineup, which finds the band at their loudest and noisiest. McQqeen's II is a kaleidoscopic panorama of psychedelic noise punk that comes out on Tape and Digital courtesy of Big Neck Records. The album was recorded and mixed by Vera himself and mastered by Will Killingsworth at Dead Air Studios McQqeen is Al O Vera- vox/guitar Thomas Kim - guitar Cole Johnson - drums Lucca Cassandra Carver- bass
