New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / PSYCHIATRIC METAPHORS + LINEAR NORTH - new King Pizza tapes

« on: November 30, 2015, 06:57:30 AM »

We here at King Pizza Secret Moonbase have a couple of new analog goodies for the holiday season.

Linear North's Mine is Yesterday, I Know Tomorrow is a heavy hunk of space psych that'll upset your grandma, mother, father, dog, and make your little snowboots groove in the arctic tundra.

Psychiatric Metaphors' The Seeker is psych-punk madness rolled into a spliff, smoked, and running around the city without a jacket on.

Music Shit / Re: Best 2013 Lps

« on: December 10, 2013, 07:51:13 AM »

I'm sure I'll forget some other great ones, but I'm really into these:

Dirty Fences - Too High to Kross
Fuzz - S/T
NANCY - S/T tape
Useless Eaters - Hypertension
Purling Hiss - Water on Mars
White Fence - Live in San Francisco
The Gabba-Ghouls - S/T tape

Both that Purling Hiss record and the live White Fence are definitely in my top 5.  I was blown away by how great that live White Fence album sounds -- so much more power than I remember when I saw them live.  They did a great job recording it.

I'd also add these two...

RUNNING - Vaguely Ethnic
A Place to Bury Strangers - Strange Moon

Also, the Oblivions record took all year to grow on me, but finally I love it. Except "Pinball King". I think I hate that song.

I just heard Running yesterday and I was considering posting it just because I took such an immediate liking to it. I haven't seen White Fence live but the Live LP is way more interesting than their studio material for that exact reason. It sound so immediate and powerful in a way that felt lacking in the studio. I think their studio stuff is cool, don't get me wrong, but if I had to choose anything, it'd definitely be this one.

The new Night Beats record is also a lot of fun. I haven't listened to the new Oblivians much yet but I'm glad that it does get better with a little time. I like what I have heard but it didn't make me want to rush out for it.
