SAVAGE REPUBLIC - 'RECORDINGS FROM LIVE PERFORMANCE 81-83'

Formats

• IP038 - CD

  761971503821

Details

Now available on CD, this collection of early live recordings from venerable tribal experimentalists Savage Republic was originally made available in 1992 as a double- 10-inch vinyl release in Independent Project Records’ Archive Series. Recorded during the first two years of the band’s existence, it includes one track from the group’s first ever live performance in May of 1981, several songs never recorded in the studio or otherwise released, as well as a generous amount of “atmosphere,” consisting of snippets of dialogue, band / audience exchanges and ambient club noise. All in all, it’s as good a document as one will find of the early years of this unique Los Angeles-based band. “The one truly stirring thing about these recordings from the first two years of Savage Republic’s existence is that... no band has been able to match its mix of entrancing Eastern rhythms and artfully bared emotion, which still provide a swift intellectual kick in the pants.” —CMJ• Early recordings from influential Los Angeles band, back in print on CD • Includes several songs never recorded in the studio or otherwise released • Beautifully packaged in a numbered, hand-letterpress printed Discfolio in an edition of 1,000 copies

SCENIC - 'ACQUATICA'

Formats

• IPR055 - CD

  795306705529

Details

Scenic’s 1996 full-length release is now reissued on CD after being out of print since 1999. With Acquatica, Scenic draws from numerous influences to create a 60-plus-minute instrumental soundtrack for a voyage through inner space landscapes—a sprawling adventure into another world. Core members Bruce Licher (ex-Savage Republic), James Brenner (ex-Shiva Burlesque), Brock Wirtz and Robert Loveless (ex-Savage Republic and 17 Pygmies) are joined in the studio by both of their contemporary auxiliary live rhythm guitarists, Doug Smith and Brandon Capps (formerly with Independent Project Records band Half String), along with several other guests who add Chamberlin (a mellotron-like instrument) and horns. As on their previous album, periodic breaks in the proceedings function as interludes during which the listener can catch his or her breath and prepare for the remainder of the journey to come. “Acquatica is a hypnotic collection of widescreen instrumentals that shimmer like deserts at sunset, suggesting a collage of Ennio Morricone’s twangscapes and My Bloody Valentine’s swirling noise textures.” —Guitar Player “Scenic use lush orchestration to enrich their vision of the desert as a raw, vivid place, creating music that leaves the vocals and guitar solos behind but possesses a spiritual immediacy that is rock ’n’ roll to the core.” —Rolling Stone

CHARCOAL OWLS - 'TIN ROOF'

Formats

• LSSN023 - LP

Details

VINYL LP: Edition of 300 with Printed Inner and Download Card. Charcoal Owls is the ever-evolving collaboration between musician Tom James Scott and poet/vocalist Russell Walker (Pheromoans, The Bomber Jackets). Their debut LP "Tin Roof" sees Scott draw on disparate forms - Satiesque minimalism, field recording, abstracted pop and improvisation to converse with the peculiar lyricism that Walker has perfected over his various activities. The result is a warm, absurdist meditation on suburban insecurity and the tragi-comic. Tin Roof follows two sold out cassette releases on OneC Records and Night People. Opening with a lilting instrumental piece embedded with field recordings, Russell Walker’s narrative begins on 2nd track “Artificial Eyes.” Soon the listener is drawn into the curious worldview the writer has been expanding on for years, his wonderfully pathetic characters lightning conductors for provincial crisis and every-day profundities. Through out Tin Roof the listener’s ear is drawn by the juxtaposition of Scott’s minimal melodic lines and Walker’s often downright hilarious verse; “Anxious under tin again, one un-emptied wheelie bin.” There’s a real depth to mine – tracks like “Clapham Monster,” a one minute diary entry which will make any listener spit out their porridge in laughter, rub up against stark, downright beautiful pieces like “I Just Can’t Say When.” At another point “Grace Period” (featuring Rose Keeler on vocals) brings a soothing drone cadence after the acerbic, commuter-angst of “Twickenham Slags.” The dichotomies at work on Tin Roof make it a truly unique world. Both sad and funny, minimal and busy, poetic and every-day. Once immersed it’ll be difficult to quite find your way out again.
