Often trippy and mostly vitriolic, Amammoth is a sludge/stoner metal from down under. The Sydneysiders have been active for a couple of years and already started making waves locally with their loud, frenzied live shows and 2019’s EP, Blackwitch. The upcoming debut LP, The Fire Above, is based on two different messages. The first message validates the sun as the creator of life rather than a religion. The second topic vilifies the privileged class (such as the royal family, politicians, and celebrities) in our society for their offenses and hegemony. Sonically, the opus is a scream into the abyss and a sacrifice of the innocents on the altar of the almighty bong. The snarling stoner/sludgy tunes capture the sensibilities of a shot of heroin, a comforting fire on a snowy night, a tender, sensual touch from a lover, and a knife to the throat of enemies. Absorb Amammoth’s grotesque and foreboding harshness and kindle The Fire Above. On transparent yellow vinyl.

"...a hypnotic experience: There's a sense of harmony to Yoshinaga and Arney's movements, an obvious awareness of each other's presence in a way that seems choreographed but stems from a natural synchronicity." - The Pitch, Kansas City. Through their dedication to discovering new sounds & repertoire for percussion chamber ensembles, Arx Duo's Garrett Arney and Mari Yoshinaga have commissioned nearly 100 works from a diverse array of composers from around the world. Inspired by the numinous interweaving of sound and timbre between marimba and vibraphone in Peter Klatzow's "Ambient Resonances," they commissioned works from Juri Seo and Robert Honstein to further explore that dynamic. Here on their debut recording they highlight the sustain of the vibraphone with the low resonant tones of the rolled marimba, at times filling space with moving harmonies and dense melodies, and others, remaining still and contemplative. "arx duo is one of the most impressive ensembles...Their musicianship, intelligence and superb performance is nothing but astounding..." - Stacie Haneline, Vesper Music Series

Since the 2019 debut 'Albong' the three piece band BBBW creates intense live sounds, droning atmospheres, heavy meditational riffs and vocals that echo through deep endlessness. Based on the foundation of bass, guitar and drums BBBW uses different instruments from synths to saxophone, trumpets, tons of amps, effects, basically everything that creates impact and summons the endless waves for the sonic end time. Says the band: “We are influenced by bands like Pink Floyd, St Erik, Bomg, ODD, Dark Buddah Rising, Slomatics, Radien and all different other kinds of music. Our live sound volume levels got hardly influenced by a show we had together with our old bands and Cult of Occult back in 2016, they were blasting our ears like no others with an enormous backline, now we are pretty good to achieve the same physical pressure, not at least thanks to our Guitarist Jan who is building cabinets known as Cosmic Terror.

In a way, spring 2020 has offered us the luxury of time. Eight unforeseen weeks of creation during which french experimental rock band Hifiklub was able, on the one hand, to provide the single "Staying At Home" with Jad Fair (Half Japanese) for Joyful Noise Recordings compilation 'Safe In Sound - Home Recordings From Quarantine' but also, on the other hand, remotely record this brand new album with producer Anthony "Daffodil" Belguise, drummer Matt Cameron (Pearl Jam, Soundgarden) and trumpet player Reuben Lewis (I Hold the Lion's Paw). That, while reformatting the internal balance of the group, returning to an “open trio” formula - and no longer a quartet around permanent members Pascal Abbattucci Julien, Jean-Loup Faurat and Régis Laugier. All this, above all, by having only the means at hand in such circumstances. The instrumental character of this new discographic stage, made up of six distinct movements, is only shaken by rare vocal interventions supporting passages where the music becomes more intense. This real sound puzzle assembled by Daffodil reveals the darkness and modernity characteristic of his latest productions. His meticulous mixing work allows this 25-minute musical piece, thought of as a whole, to evolve in the sandstone of unexpected rhythmic and harmonic breaks during which the trumpet and electronic sounds constantly revive the machine. On pink vinyl.

The inspiration for the ScorpKlub project was to create unique works, using the remarkable collection of Toulon Art Museum's as a palette, through a multidisciplinary exchange of sound and moving image. Hifiklub responded in music to the digital collages created by James Kerr, who mischievously altered twenty artworks ranging from the 15th to the beginning of the 20th century, from the museum's permanent collection. The work of assembling the visuals took place in James Kerr's studio in Montreal, whereas the musical component to the project was created in two stages: - The first recording session took place at the end of January 2021 at Coxinhell studio in Saint-Aygulf, with Iggor Cavalera (MixHell, Cavalera Conspiracy, Pet Brick, co-founder of Sepultura) recording remotely. This session resulted in ten original compositions, to which Kerr animated his videos to. - The second stage of Hifiklub took place in Toulon on July 2 and 3, 2021 during the Murex Festival, with the remote participation of Alain Johannes (Queens of the Stone Age, Them Crooked Vultures, Eleven). This session of sound research and recording was done in front of a live audience, to which the music was created in response to ten premade animations created by Kerr. ScorpKlub I & II will be broadcasted in 2022 on the internet in the form of two seasons: one with Iggor Cavalera + one with Alain Johannes. On solid pink vinyl.

The genesis of this threesome coming together seemed to be a quite natural one. Liebman and Rudolph began playing duo in 2016 and Sorey and Rudolph began performing as a percussion duet in 2018. Sorey states "we seemed so in sync with each other, in part, perhaps, because we are both composers as well as percussionists." When the opportunity arose to present a trio concept it seemed a natural step for these three artists of different generations to perform together. NEW NOW is the recorded document of that concert. Liebman, Sorey & Rudolph brought their unique and evolved rhythm and sonic languages to the fore, through inspired and spirited dialogue. The music flows as one complete piece with several movements or sections. This music exists on its own terms reflecting the wonderful alchemy of these artists as they spontaneously created dialogues, orchestrations and sonic moods. According to Liebman, "For a "maiden voyage".

The songs on this Album A TIMELESS THING, were complied from her previous works produced by Fred Mollin, featuring the latest breakthrough in the Art and Science of mastering-FINEDISC. Contains 12 songs. The sound source used for mastering is digital master. Mastering uses JVC 24bit / 176.4Khz AD and digital k2.

"When you can listen to the iconic "Space Oddity" and hear it anew - without a trace of irony - you know this project has met its goal." Neil Tesser. Chicago's Metropolitan Jazz Octet partners with the acclaimed vocalist Paul Marinaro to create an inspired tribute to the durability and pure magic of David Bowie's songwriting legacy. Reinterpreting without replicating, due in no small part to Marinaro's riveting vocals paired with creative arrangements, the octet palette reveals transparency and intimacy, coaxing nuanced colors more indicative of a larger orchestra, laying out an inventive complement to Bowie's lyrics. The MJO was originally founded in the '50s by saxophonist/arranger Tom Hilliard and documented first in 1959's "The Legend of Bix," on Argo Records. Its re-awakening in 2014 by Hilliard's former student, Jim Gailloreto, extends the rich legacy of Hilliard's library of compositions and devotion to this elegant chamber ensemble.

Salem, Massachusetts is a place that everyone knows. People flock from all over the world to celebrate the history and experience the mysteries of the occult. From it's famous history of witchcraft to it's home of both the Satanic Temple and the Golden Dawn. Salem is a place that thrives on the unkown. A place where the veil is at it's thinnest. This is the home of Mother Iron Horse. This was the inspiration for their debut album "The Lesser Key". Recorded by themselves in their own hand-built studio. Mother Iron Horse kicks the door in with heavy grooves that lay the ground work for "The Lesser Key". An album that is absolutely perfect for beer-soaked motorcycle weekends just as well as it is with headphones and a fist full of mushrooms. A trip that lasts 39 minutes through 9 tracks. You'll hear heavy riffs, ambient invocations, wide vocal ranges and killer leads. This is how Mother Iron Horse properly introduces itself to the world. This is chapter number one.“

(2-LP set) 1967 was an amazing time for Sky Saxon, Daryl Hooper, Jan Savage and Rick Andridge, one where the hard work of the previous two years was finally paying off. Its first six months likely represented the zenith of their career. The ascendant quartet seemed completely in the vanguard, with a major national hit under their belt and a public profile inflated by a manager who was an expert manipulator of the media. The act was also notable in that their first three hits – ‘Pushin’ Too Hard,’ ‘Mr Farmer’ and ‘Can’t Seem To Make You Mine’ - had all been completely different in structure, but shared a common and instantly identifiable sound. And two of these singles were a year or more old at the time that they enjoyed their greatest popularity. The eponymous debut album and its sequel “A Web Of Sound,” had solidified the attitude implied by the hits, and saw the group made defiantly outrageous gestures, both musically and visually. What would the Seeds’ next move be? Remastered with extra material previously unissued in vinyl. Gatefold sleeve. 8 page insert.

‘Séance’ is the 3rd EP of the Cypriot Heavy Rock band Stonus, a fully analogue 18:24 minute EP recorded live at Hot Soap Studios in Larnaca, Cyprus under the supervision of Andreas Mattheou and mastered by George Leodis. The delicate artwork, perfectly translating the visualisation of Séance was crafted by Petros Voulgaris "A séance or seance (/'se?.??ns/; French: [se??s]) is an attempt to communicate with spirits. The word came to be used specifically for a meeting of people who are gathered to receive messages from ghosts or to listen to a spirit medium discourse with or relay messages from spirits." Following the release of their debut album "Aphasia" in early March 2020, Stonus found themselves in the middle of the pandemic, forced to cancel their first European tour - leaving the members isolated in Cyprus, Leeds and London. This was an emotionally heavy period for the band, since they were forced to stay away from the things which kept them together, however these restrictions gave them space to reflect on themselves enabling them to connect and unify with higher energies explored through consciousness, meditation and spiritual melodies. This is where Séance was born, through the ashes of frustration, loneliness and isolation, a silent scream for freedom, a self-realisation of multiple possible realities and an esoteric outbreak leading to a superficial egodeath. In this trip, Stonus take a more experimental approach seeking into tradition, experiencing folk sounds, gypsy sceneries and expose themselves into the darkest side of nature. In some parts they are raw and heavy, while in others lost in a psychedelic trance, filled with roaring basslines, heavy riffs and dreamy melodies, always bloodthirsty for revolution and change. Whether you’re bound by the evil chains of pretentious love, feeling disconnected from your dreams or being chained to the system, Séance is a kind reminder that you are not Alone.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you spilled bong water on your Ouija board? Columbus, Ohio's Weed Demon just might be the resulting sonic conjuration. And if not, they sure as Hell are trying their damnedest to manifest and hone in on that exact sound. Since their inception in the Winter of 2014, Weed Demon have been perpetual slaves to the riff. Wanting for nothing more than to do justice to the moniker in which they had chosen. That meant writing crushingly heavy riffs, played at unnecessarily slow speeds and accompanied by vocals that would make the dark lord himself proud. Mix in some lyrics dripping with tongue-in-cheek innuendos about drug use and worshipping The Unholiest of Unholies and you have Weed Demons first offering, Stoned to Death. 5 tracks of groove laden, stoned out, doom metal. After its release the Demon dudes started gaining a quick regional following along with the admiration of their peers and fellow bands all throughout Ohio. But in a state already teeming with grade A, tone drunk, riffheads it can be hard to really stand out. So in late 2016, with bong in hand, they descended into Daily Grind Studios and set to work. What emerged was a 50 minute slab of riff soaked goodness called "Astrological Passages." Their newest offering may have the same number of tracks as the StD EP, but the depth and diversity of the new material far surpasses anything put forth thus far. Astrological Passages is currently available digitally and on CD. A joint vinyl release is expected July of 2018 via Electric Valley Records and Daily Grind Industries. On red marbled vinyl.

Wormhog is a Stoner Prog band based in Athens, Greece. The band’s first EP, “Mother Worm Father Hog”, was released in 2014 and was recorded live at D Studio in Athens. Being loyal supporters of everything that’s heavy, Wormhog draws inspiration from bands such as Black Sabbath, Mastodon, Alice in Chains and Blue Oyster Cult.

After years of steady presence in the Athens underground music scene, the band released their first LP, “Yellow Sea” which was once again recorded, mixed and produced at D Studio, Athens by Mihail Karpathiou. “A trip through space, a strange eclipse of the sun, the birth of a monster, it’s fall from the sky and into the Yellow Sea”. This album vaguely unveils the origins and nature of the wormhog beast while also exploring other themes concerning the journey of life. On transparent yellow vinyl.

'..a jazz singer of cool composure and artful subtlety.." New York Times. The Johnny Mercer classic "Hit the Road To Dreamland" evoked the state of mind for singer Libby York and so many performers as stages in 2020 long went dark, but ultimately gifting the thrill of revival two years later. Dedication to the music and craft has flourished since, along with the connection to audiences and the music itself. "Dreamland" was born from that landscape and York's chance encounter with guitarist Randy Napoleon, who was accompanying Freddie Cole at Chicago's Jazz Showcase. Randy's playing and warm enthusiastic manner set the stage for their gathering in the studio in Fall 2021 for this intimate set of songs, each pure, classic, compositional gems in themselves. "..a gifted and experienced singer whose warm tone and sharp sense of humor bolster her restrained artistry." - The New Yorker
