Details

BACK IN STOCK! Torres, aka Mackenzie Scott is a 22-year-old singer and songwriter from Nashville, who, with her self titled debut album has produced a compelling, deeply personal record which is one of the most accomplished debut albums of 2013. 'Torres' is an album that is pulsating with life. With mature songwriting abilities that belie her relatively young age, Scott's songs live between the extremes of heartbreak, regret, passion and revenge with an intrinsic understanding of the potency that stems from these emotions. As debut albums come, they rarely get more heartbreaking, intimate and compelling as 'Torres'

Press

"The songs veer between rangy indie rock and hushed folk, unspooling in unhurried five and -six-minute lengths. They never insist on their structure, but eventually it becomes clear that they dip and surge at odd, intuitive moments, suggesting a creative songwriting mind." - 8.1/10
PITCHFORK "Despite her numerous contemporaries, Torres stands out as a distinct and compelling performer"

CARLTON MELTON & KANDODO 3 - 'SPLIT'

Formats

• CC001 - 12"

Details

**LAST REMAINING COPIES**CARLTON MELTON lead the charge with three new tracks, recorded at the Dome with Brian MacDougall taping it down and John McBain mastering it for vinyl perfection. This is the Melton soaring into the stratosphere with their own toke on spaced travel via olfactory motion. Many would simply say "psych", we say "SPACE" and "NO frontiers!", fly on brothers. Kandodo 3 is the new "nom de plume" for Simon Price's (The Heads) Kandodo project, having roped in fellow Heads' Wayne Maskell (drum patterns and rhythm driving) and Hugo Morgan (bass throb and guidance) to record under the name Kandodo 3. They take up their whole side with one looping soundscape that jitters and skitters into and around patterns of dub and space, this exhilaratating take on an already pre-determined trajectory is as awesome in its scope as it is in its journey, catch a ride! Mastered by Shawn Joseph (Optimum) Simon Kandodo Price artwork..... 500 copies only.

Details

High Voltage Rock N Roll, Fresh of the US run with Uncle Acid available for the first time on Double LP. Supercharged psychedelic space rock that could have been made in the 70s available for the first time on Double LP. When this first came out Pitchfork hailed Danava as true leaders, calling them “the sole working owners of this sound, an almost glam-rock, Hawkwind thing” and Guitar World lauded their “chaotic psych-metal brew.” This is rock n roll to the core and definitely not your parents kind of party.

HOME BLITZ - 'FOREMOST & FAIR'

Formats

• RR/TT40 - LP

  655035034010

Details

The fractured, ballsy electric guitar pop from Dan DiMaggio’s outfit defines the form. Anybody who has been paying attention already knows that the Home Blitz name is a trademark of quality stamped on a handful of singles and EPs, as well as their jaw-dropping album on the Richie Records label. Foremost & Fair continues the trajectory of those records, achieving heights of fidelity, craft and fretwork dexterity that will continue to elude humbuggers, ham ’n’ eggers, and all the other-butter-users for years to come. DiMaggio and the Home Blitz name have rightfully been pegged to the tradition of prolific, idiosyncratic punk-quapop individualists, but if you’re looking for a convenient reference, you won’t find it in this little write-up. Home Blitz stands alone.
