A reissue of Lungfish's second full-length, Rainbows From Atoms, on LP. Originally released in 1993, the album was recorded at Inner Ear Studios in Arlington, Virginia with Ian MacKaye and Don Zientara. Long out of print, this version has been remastered for vinyl by TJ LIPPLE. From their inception in 1988 until their hiatus in 2006, Baltimore's Lungfish released 11 full-length albums and played concerts across the United States and in Europe. At the time of this recording, Lungfish was Daniel Higgs, Asa Osborne, John Chriest, and Mitchell Feldstein.

Fumble is the fifth and final studio album. Orginally released in July 1993 through Dischord. It is notable for showcasing the band's expansion in style, towards a more post-hardcore sound with a Bad Brains influence, and also for having some of the first compositions of Dave Grohl.

2nd full length LP, their first in 9 years. Features members of Beauty Pill, Minutes, Warm Sun & more. 14 songs that were tracked live in a basement using a Tapscam 388 tape machine

This fall, Dischord will release Fugazi’s First Demo.In January 1988, after only ten shows, Fugazi decided to go into Inner Ear Studio to see what their music sounded like on tape. They tracked 11 songs, ten of which were ultimately dubbed to cassette tape and distributed free at shows, with the band encouraging people to share the recording.The only song from the session that has been formally released was “In Defense of Humans,” which appeared on the State of the Union compilation in 1989. Now, some 26 years later, Dischord is releasing the entire demo including the one song (“Turn Off Your Guns”) that wasn’t included on the original cassette.- See more at: http://www.dischord.com/news/580/2014/8/fugazi-first-demo-out-this-winter#sthash.kRgSUUFd.dpuf

Wir könnten hier ein Riesenfass aufmachen, aber da uns der unprätentiöse Tonfall des Anschreibens so gut gefällt, bleiben wir dem Originaltext treu: THE EVENS sind eine Band aus Washington, DC.Ian MacKaye spielt die Baritongitarre und Amy Farina spielt Schlagzeug. Beide singen. ,The Odds" ist das dritte Album der Band - 13 Songs, die im Sommer 2012 mit Don Zeintara in den Inner Ear Studios aufgenommen wurden.THE EVENS kamen im Herbst 2001 zusammen und veröffentlichten mit ,The Evens" von 2005 und ,Get Evens" von 2006 zwei Alben und eine 7", ,Warble Factor", mit Timothy Wright im letzten Jahr.,The Odds" ist ihr erstes Album seit sechs Jahren. Die Band plant, im Herbst 2011 wieder auf Tour zu gehen.

Te Make-Up was a group which composed superior, original music, performed that music dynamically in spaces and nightclubs, and organized the performances at which they appeared across the U.S.A. and the world. These performances were characterized by the freneticism, catharsis and spirituality of what can only be described as GOSPEL YEH-YEH music. They were a total departure from the boring pantomime of rock 'n' roll as we know it, inflicting a sublime theatre on their audience which resembled a baptism, or perhaps an orgy. Their 'singer' was typically employed as a lead-chanter, while the others perpetrated a rhythmic drone on the subjects of their "Rhythm Hive". They were: on guitar, microphone and organ, JAMES CANTY; on center microphone, IAN SVENONIUS; on bass guitar and microphone, MICHELLE MAE and on the drum kit, STEVE GAMOBA. Ian, Steve and James once were part of the NATION OF ULYSSES, while Michelle took part in a project called FRUMPIES. The three were from Washington, DC while the one was from Olympia, Washington, but they formed in February 1995 to present their international vision to a world they are sure is steeped in stultifying cynicism.

After more than a decade out of print, Jawbox's second full-length album, Novelty, is finally back on vinyl. Novelty was recorded at Arlington, Virginia's Inner Ear Studios in January of 1992 with producer Iain Burgess. J. Robbins, Kim Coletta and Adam Wade formed Jawbox in July of 1989. Not long after, the band began to tour and record, releasing its first EP, Tools & Chrome, in 1990 as a split between Desoto and Dischord Records. Following the release of the Jawbox's debut LP, Grippe, on Dischord in 1991, the band recruited a second guitarist, Bill Barbot. In 1993, Jawbox left Dischord to sign with Atlantic Records, where it would release two more albums--For Your Own Special Sweetheart and Jawbox--before disbanding in 1997. The record has been remastered and recut by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Studios and will be pressed onto clear-colored vinyl with revised artwork. The LP also includes a digital download coupon featuring the original album tracks plus the 2-song Tongues single.

10" LP WITH DOWNLOAD. Rites of Spring were among the most important and beloved bands to emerge from the DC underground music scene in the mid-80s.Formed by Guy Picciotto (Fugazi) on vocals/guitar, Mike Fellows bass, Brendan Canty (Fugazi) on drums, and Eddie Janney (Faith) on guitar in 1984, the quartet released a self-titled LP and a 7" single before disbanding in 1986. They were central to what came to be known as 'Revolution Summer', a period of redefinition and creative burst from the DC scene in 1985.Before that - before they even played a show -- the band recorded a six-song demo tape at Inner Ear with Don Zientara and Ian MacKaye. After the dissolution of their previous band, Insurrection, in 1983, Canty, Picciotto, and Fellows joined with Faith guitarist Eddie Janney and began writing new songs.Unfortunately, just as they became ready to play out, Fellows announced plans to relocate to Los Angeles, effectively ending the band before it even got started.Before the bassist departed, the group decided to go to Inner Ear to document the handful of finished songs that they had written. At this point, not only had they never played a show, Rites of Spring hadn't even settled on a name (on the tapes, Zientara listed the sessions as Insurrection II).But already, the music marked a musical shift for the DC punk community, consciously breaking away from the macho-clichés that had come to plague hardcore music. The sessions were notable for being the first time that anybody had heard Picciotto sing.At the time, few bands had access to a PA system during practice and the volume of the other instruments often blotted out vocals.Shortly after tracking was completed, Fellows hit the road and the recordings were mixed in his absence, hence the Beatles-inspired "Mike Fellows is dead," gag at the end of "By Design." Because the band had broken up before ever playing, there was no plan to officially release the recording, so the completed songs were dubbed onto cassette tapes and given out to friends, who passed them along to others.As a result of the tape-trading the recordings were heard far and wide, though each copy suffered a loss of sound-quality. As it turned out, the West Coast didn't agree with Fellows and in July he came back to DC to rejoin the band.Shortly after his return the band performed its first show at Food For Thought opening for Gray Matter.They would perform fewer than 20 shows before they dis- banded. These six songs capture Rites of Spring in its earliest stages.Once the band started playing out, the songs gained velocity and intensity (see the 7-minute plus version of "End on End" that closes their LP), but many of the elements that defined their music - frenzied energy, sharp melodies, and introspective lyrics -- were already very much in place.The release has been mastered from the original tapes and is presented exactly as it was on those cassettes in 1984 complete with the tape collages and assorted audio-graffiti.Members went on to play in Happy Go Licky, Fugazi, Royal Trux, and Silver Jews. *Recorded April 1984 at Inner Ear Studios by Don Zientara; Produced by Ian MacKaye.Mastered by TJ Lipple in Summer 2012.
