The Hold Steady
Open Door Policy
$17.00“We recorded Open Door Policy in two different sessions in the back half of 2019. Our intention was to create an album that worked as a grand piece, rather than a collection of songs. The songs on Open Door Policy are about power, wealth, and mental health. They’re about technology, occupation, consumerism, freedom, fandom and escape…”- Craig Finn

Idles
Brutalism
$22.00Vinyl 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.

IDLES
Joy As An Act of Resistance
$22.00Idles with “Joy as an Act of Resistance.” is an attempt to be vulnerable to their audience, to encourage vulnerability; a mere brave naked smile in this messed up new world. They have stripped back the songs and the lyrics to their bare flesh to allow each other to breathe and to celebrate our differences and act as an ode to communities and the individuals that forge them because without our community, we’d be nothing.
-
IDLES
ULTRA MONO
$22.00Vinyl LP pressing. Ultra Mono’ – is the sound of Idles heading into battle, battering ram in hand. The songs double down on the vitriolic sneer and blunt social commentary of their past work. Not far beneath the surface of their self-admitted sloganeering lies a deeply complex and brutally relevant album that chews up cliches and spits them out as high art for the masses.

The Jesus and Mary Chain
Psycho Candy
$19.00Exploring a vein mined by their heroes The Velvet Underground and The Stooges, Glasgow’s JMC were the link between pure pop and white noise in the 80s and 90s. In turn, their half dozen albums, nearly two dozen singles, and live shows were an inspiration to the next generation of subversives, from My Bloody Valentine to Dinosaur Jr. To The Chemical Brothers. This is their full-length debut, featuring the song, “Just Like Honey”. Pressed on HQ 180-gram heavy vinyl. All original packaging.

Low
Hey What
$19.00Focusing on their craft, staying out of the fray, and holding fast their faith to find new ways to express the discord and delight of being alive, to turn the duality of existence into hymns we can share, Low present Hey What.

The ineffable, familiar harmonies of Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker break through the chaos like a life raft.

The Lumineers
BRIGHTSIDE
$26.00Multi-platinum selling GRAMMY-nominated band The Lumineers are back with their fourth record, BRIGHTSIDE. Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites’ latest work is their most spontaneous and joyous yet, featuring their ever-more-sophisticated songwriting and arranging and production from longtime producer and friend Simone Felice. “… this time it was bare bones, ” Schultz expressed. “We started demoing in Jer’s basement and didn’t even touch the computer – we just used my phone to record voice memos on, and that was what we sent to Simone. For me, it was about wanting to have more curiosity in the studio and not have everything all dialed in. It felt like a new path.”

Bob Marley
Legend [Reissue] (180 Gram Vinyl, Special Edition, Reissue)
$26.00Island 50th Anniversary Special Edition. There are few musicians whose music has indisputably advanced humanity. Reggae figurehead Bob Marley–a songwriter, poet, activist, and visionary–is one of them. The idea that a single-disc collection could represent the depth, breadth, and power of Marley’s achievement is far-fetched, but LEGEND makes an excellent attempt. Every single one of its tracks is outstanding, and the artist’s different faces–revolutionary (“Get Up Stand Up”), romantic (“Is This Love”), devout Rastafarian (“Buffalo Soldier”), and prophet (“One Love/People Get Ready”) are equally represented. (Note: The Deluxe Edition CD includes two bonus tracks and an additional disc of remixes.)

Dammmmmn right.

Modest Mouse
The Golden Casket
$28.00Double vinyl LP pressing. The Golden Casket heralds another new chapter in the band’s unpredictable evolution. Produced with Dave Sardy and Jacknife Lee in Los Angeles and in Modest Mouse’s studio in Portland, the album hovers in the liminal space between raw punk power and experimental studio science, frontman Isaac Brock explores themes ranging from the degradation of our psychic landscapes and invisible technology, to fatherhood. The twelve tracks behave like amorphous organisms, undergoing dramatic mutations and mood swings that speak to the chronic tug-of-war between hope and despair.

Morphine
Cure for Pain (180 Gram Vinyl, Gatefold LP Jacket)
$28.00Vinyl LP pressing of this 1993 album from the American Indie rockers. Low-rock and Fuck-rock are two descriptors enigmatic Morphine front man Mark Sandman used to describe his band’s beat-inspired blues-jazz-rock holy racket. Hailed by the alternative college-rock community in the mid-1990s after motion picture soundtrack placements in Spanking the Monkey and the MTV animated series Beavis and Butt-head, such commercial endorsements did little to distract from Cure for Pain’s deep soul.
