New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / "Sewer surfing with... The Astroglides" - Out Now!

« on: September 12, 2010, 03:44:26 AM »

Years after their last record, The Surfcore Band "The Astroglides" compilation, featuring the band's exclusive surf tracks, is being presented to music lovers who appreciate cutting-edge twang tunes.

This is "Sewer surfing with The... Astroglides" - A retrospective ride through the pounding surf of The Astroglides archives!

The Astroglides were one of a kind. Loyal to their name, they took surf to new galaxies, penetrating both friendly and hostile biospheres, hybridizing the occidental and the oriental with a touch of oozing reverb.

It is not very common to find a band that succeeded to shape a brand new musical genre. The Astroglides, who coined the term 'Surfcore' to describe their own blend of dark surf and metallic thrash-core, managed to galvanize a new power tool that retained the true essence of surf music. Since their formation in 1997, The Astroglides have been crafting unique instrumental and vocal surfcore tunes, alongside and separated from both the Israeli musical mainstream and the local alternative scene.

Leading their own crusade, the band released their first two albums "Penetrate With..." and "Fondling With..." on the Israeli independent label Fast Music in 2001 and 2002, respectively. In 2003 they released their third effort "Channel Surfing With...", a record that was based around TV and movie instrumentals, including cover versions of obscure theme songs from old Israeli TV shows.

In 2005 the band released "Turkish Delight", a CD single that was soon followed by the band's last album "Selling Out With...". This unique album was released by the band's private label, Sshaking RecordsS, and showcased The Astroglides penchant for oriental-influenced exotica. The Astroglides took their intense oceanic surfcore on a camel ride through the casbah and gave birth to 15 spicy tunes that breathe new life in the Middle Eastern deserts of desolation.

And now it's here, the new CD compilation of "Sewer Surfing With... The Astroglides".

Music Shit / Could you please help me find a good magazine / fanzine?

« on: October 04, 2009, 01:18:51 AM »

I'm not from the US (or let's say even Europe) but really into most of the stuff here. Even in net-times I still think that a good magazine is a must.

These days I'm reading Decibel for metal and hardcore stuff, but other stuff that I like just isn't there? I'm talking about bands like Sic Alps, The Mantles, Chip Time, Mayyors, Nothing People, Psychedelic Horseshit, Reigning Sound, Ty Segall, Kurt Vile, Blues Control? maybe you get the direction.

I know that The Wire is covering some of it, but sometimes it's too much experimental for me and? no fun.

Where is the magazine that will bring me closeup interviews and cover stories about those kinds of bands (I guess Siltbreez? In the Red? SS Records?. A little bit Woodsist era etc.). Even some mailorder something?

Help. Please. And thanks in advance.
