We will be back! We’ve decided that 2020 is a good year to hibernate through the winter and reemerge ready to go in early spring 2021.
Staying open and doing business in a pandemic is tough. We love our people and our neighborhood. As hard as it is, it’s costing more to be open than closed right now, and we’ll last longer and be stronger if we close.
We’re really going to miss our community. While we’re gone, you can support Life On Mars by getting hoodies, tees and vinyl in our online shop, signing up for our newsletter, and sending us love notes on socials about how much you miss the Neil from Yonkers and Disco Fries.
Please, support your other neighborhood bars, restaurants and shops too, we are all relying on our community to see us through.

Check back in the Spring!
AL GREEN
JUST IN! Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. Al Green’s Greatest Hits is a 1975 greatest hits release by soul singer Al Green. The compilation has consistently ranked as one of the best executed ‘greatest hits’ albums in history. Look, you should probably have this. I’m not judging you, if you don’t already own this, I’m here to help that record collection and make it SHINE! You should probably buy this. “Take Me to the River”? “Tired of Being Alone”???? “Let’s Stay Together”??!?!? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. Plus, sex.
Idles
Vinyl LP pressing. In a time of polarized politics and murky waters; Idles and bands like them are needed to remind people that it’s ok to dance and laugh and sing in the face of adversity. Bristol’s finest post-punk polemics Idles have been promising to do great things for some time now, and with their 2017 debut album Brutalism they absolutely fulfilled that promise, and a furious promise at that. Politically charged, refreshingly confrontational and infectiously volatile, Idles are a band like no other. Bringing the unsettling reality of the world we live in into their frantic assault on the senses, Brutalism perfectly encapsulates the intensity of their live sound.
Funkadelic
Limited 180gm blue colored vinyl LP pressing. Free Your Mind… and Your Ass Will Follow is the second studio album by Funkadelic, originally released in July 1970 by Westbound Records. Funkadelic was meant to be heard A side to B side on vinyl. Robert Christgau referred to George Clinton as “someone from Carolina who encountered eternity on LSD and vowed to contain it in a groove”. He did LSD so you don’t have to! Unless you’re into that. No judgement here.
FUNKADELIC
Limited 180gm orange colored vinyl LP pressing. Funkadelic’s first album, eponymously released in 1970, gets the HIQLP treatment to celebrate it’s 50th anniversary. In a thick card sleeve. Also, LSD. Not literally in the record but you know, it is IN the music. I’m high just writing this.
