D Grady Y U So Shady Vir 388 721616038828 14/10.39 _____ Rock
2008 edition of the Austin, TX band’s debut, completely remixed by band leader Gordie Johnson and re-sequenced by Jello Biafra plus two cookin’ live
bonus tracks not on original release. Grady is a razor-sharp power trio fronted by guitar master Johnson who counts gold and platinum records on his wall
from his stint in Toronto, Canada with Big Sugar. With picks on all his fingers, he rips the strings, loud as hell, through a little Fender amp for pedal steel
guitars. Grady has a fiercer, more direct sound than his previous band: a perfect fit for Alternative Tentacles. For fans of Hank III, ZZ Top, Motörhead, Rory
Gallagher, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Fu Manchu, Queens of the Stone Age, Nashville Pussy and Drunk Horse. 13 tracks.
D Krallice Krallice Profound 36 880270236626 14/10.39 _____ Rock
Recognized as one of the most virtuosic guitar wizards today, Mick Barr displays his awe-inspiring six-string histrionics in such bizarre outfits as Ocrilim
(Hydra Head) and Orthrelm (Ipecac), bending and stretching the rules of modern-day playing and giving new meaning to progressive guitar-work.
Nonetheless, Barr (who has also collaborated with the likes of John Zorn and Mike Patton) is quite the enigma today.
D Nisennenmondai Tori/Neji Smalltow 149 600116844927 17/12.09 _____ Rock
Nisennenmondai means ‘’Year 2000 Problem’’ and it is an instrumental Japanese girl trio from Tokyo.The visits to Tokyo by Lightning Bolt, Battles & No Age
and others have unearthed these three girls with their mammoth sound. With song titles such as ‘This Heat’, ‘Sonic Youth’ & ‘Pop Group’, one understand
which musical territory the band comes from, and if you add Black Flag, DNA, Neu! & Pere Ubu you are pretty close to Nisennenmondais sound. It’s raw
& repetitive (post) punk instrumentals, at the same time as they are wild groovy with a no wave/disco vibe to it. This is the first release outside of Japan
& it contains the bands two EPs ‘’Neji’’ and ‘’Tori’’ released as one album with new cover design by Kim Hiorthoy.
D Pantaleimon Heart Of The Sun Djad 8 061297329885 15/11.09 _____ Rock

featuring Sonic Youth (with Jim O’Rourke) and guests Swedish saxophonist Mats Gustafsson and Japanese sound artist Masami Akita (a.k.a. Merzbow).
The single piece performed was a structured improvisation which for 60 minutes added and subtracted musicians one by one until only Akita was left
onstage. This installment of Sonic Youth’s series of experimental and mostly instrumental releases is available in a CD-only edition on the band’s own SYR
label.
D Sparks Exotic Creatures Of The D Lil Beet 111 5037300753362 15/11.65* _____ Rock
2008 release from Ron and Russell Mael, the brotherly duo’s 21st album in their long and innovative career. Like their previous albums Lil’ Beethoven and

edition features ‘Russell & Chimp’ cover.

album includes ‘Big Surprise’, ‘Goofing Off’ and ‘Over The Summer’. The album features two different sleeve designs: The ‘Ron’ cover image and the
‘Russell’ cover image. Both CD’s have the same tracklisting. Lil Beethoven.

D DJ Kentaro Trust/Rainy Day Ep Ninja Tu 12213 5021392512167 14/10.39 _____ Single
Japanese turntable legend DJ Kentaro’s pair of remixes re-establishs his impeccable drum ’n’ bass credentials. Kentaro is best known as a phenomenal
turntablist and former DMC World Champion, but on his debut album, Enter, he was more concerned with showing his muscle as a music producer.
D Free Blood Royal Family Rong 3 829732000313 8/6.29 _____ Single
2008 twelve inch vinyl pressing of the second single from Brooklyn’s Free Blood featuring John Pugh of !!! The hypnotic vocals and melancholy rhythms
of ‘Royal Family,’ accompanied by its haunting piano stabs and pounding drums, make for a unique, futuristic pop song. The flip, ‘Grumpy,’ includes tuff cello
stabs and screeching vocal effects over a raucous disco break. Warped and funky is one way to describe it. Includes two versions of each track.
D Notwave Notwave Rong 2 829732000214 8/6.29 _____ Single
2008 twelve inch vinyl EP from Rong Music, a somewhat new take on the early-’80s New York City No Wave sound, lifted from the album of the same name.
Striplight starts things off with their track ‘No Search No Entry.’ With no need for a singer or a guitar player, Tussle delivers their dancefloor candy with an
extremely proficient rhythm section consisting of a dub-loving bass player, two disco-crazy percussionists, and a pair of talented noise specialists. This
exclusive unreleased mix of ‘Elephants Meandering’ from the Notwave compilation was done by none other than Sal Principato and Dennis Young of Liquid
Liquid fame. Welcome Stranger’s ‘Smoke Machine’ is a mid-tempo dance heater from Thomas Bullock of Rub N Tug/Map Of Africa.
D Plastique De Rve Lost In The City Dfeb 115 829732011517 8/6.29 _____ Single
Vinyl 12 inch single with two tracks. After several very successful releases on Gigolo Records and Tiga’s Turbo label, Swiss producer Daze, A.K.A.
Plastique De Réve, unleashes a 12-inch on Death From Abroad that has the potential to be a future classic. This time he leaves behind the dark, EBMinfluenced
attitude and goes deeper on one side of the record, while showing his fun-loving, tongue-in-cheek approach on the flip. Side A: ‘Lost In The City’
featuring Ghostape and Side B:’Resist’ featuring Radical Cheerleaders.

D Atlas Sound Let The Blind Lead Those Kky 114 796441811410 19/13.59 _____ Rock
Two LP Set Vinyl pressing of the Atlas Sound album, Let The Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel. One of the latest ‘true queer art Punks’ to
emerge from the cracked pavement of Southern suburban sprawl, Atlas Sound is the solo moniker of Deerhunter frontman/provocateur Bradford Cox. This
is the first vinyl release for the acclaimed solo debut from Bradford Cox. To make all sides of the album complete, there are six new songs added. Rest
assured, these are not mere ‘leftovers’ from the mixing of the album, in fact most of them were recorded after the album had already been completed. Two
of the new tunes, ‘It Rained’ and ‘Stained Glass Swan’ are of such high quality that they would be considered centerpieces on most albums.
D Awesome Color Electric Aborigines Adst 106 646315920611 15/11.09 _____ Rock
Vinyl LP pressing of the third album from the Brooklyn power trio. Awesome Color is a group of noise provocateurs and impressionists, ace players with
Punk rock flair, inspired citizens of a small modernist nation of musical, visual, and literary outrage on the outskirts of Brooklyn, or a rainbow amalgam of
all of the above at once. Following a non-stop touring schedule after their debut release (including stints with Dinosaur Jr. and Sonic Youth in the US, UK,
and Europe), the band took their honed brand of turbo chemistry into the studio and created the highly anticipated Electric Aborigines. American Dust.
D Blakey,Art & Jazz Messeng With Thelonious Monk Disconfo 1371225 766485583871 22/16.79 _____ Jazz
Limited edition vinyl LP pressing of this classic album from the Jazz legend. 2008.
D Bug London Zoo Ninja Tu 132 5021392486185 41/35.09 _____ Dance
Two LP set. London Zoo was born of three key moments. An introduction to the thriving Dub-Step scene and it’s key producers (via Kode 9) where Kevin
realized there was others on the same sonic trajectory as himself, an introduction to Warrior Queen via his work with Wayne Lonesome on the Razor X
Productions project, and a Mary Anne Hobb’s Breezeblock session which introduced him to Flowdan (Roll Deep), and Ricky Ranking. All three of which
figure heavily in the end result and live presentation. The Bug is the main project for Kevin Martin, a producer who over the years has also been behind a
diverse range of projects. He is part of Techno Animal / Ice / God (all with Justin Broadrick of Godflesh / Jesu), King Midas Sound, Razor X Productions (with
The Rootsman), Pressure and Ladybug.
