During the early days of the fall of 1991, ELEVENTH DREAM DAY was in the first phase of the write/record/release/tour cycle, the band realized that things weren't just quiet, they were dead quiet. Atlantic Records had almost no communication with the band, and most importantly had not sent the required letter that legally bound them to release their contracted third record. Management contacted the label to point out that the band no longer was tied to their contract, which the label acknowledged. Eleventh Dream Day was free. The material that appears on New Moodio was recorded on their own dime, with the intent to find a new label to put it out. Recorded at Idful Studios in Chicago with BRAD WOOD at the dials , these songs were being shopped around when Danny Goldberg-who now was running Atlantic-came to Chicago and made his pitch to the group over lunch. The band was impressed by what he had to say, and made the inference that if he went to this effort to get the band back, he and the label must really care. He urged Eleventh Dream Day to start over with a new producer, and the band spent the better part of 1992 working on what would become El Moodio, their third and final major label record. The songs on New Moodio have stayed in the vaults for twenty years, forgotten. Three songs ("Thinking Out Loud," "Where is My Saint," "Everywhere Down Here") have never appeared anywhere previously, one ("Dakota"), found its way onto the compilation Milk For Pussy, "Sunflower" was re-recorded as an El Moodio CD single extra, and the rest were re-recorded in 1992 with JIM RONDINELLI in New York for the El Moodio CD-never released on vinyl in the U.S. Edition of 500 copies with download.

Hurry Up

Dismal Nitch

Release: 2022 / US – Original

Genre: Rock & Indie

Add to Cart Coming Soon Sold out Currently not available Not Enough Coins

Portland troublemakers Hurry Up are up to it again. They’ve had it up to here - and they’re here to tell you about it. Lauded + feared for their ferocious 2015 self-titled LP, they've only grown bolder and sharper, honing their craft in a radon-soaked basement lit by one bare party bulb. Between tours with Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes, Protomartyr and other luminaries of post-punk firmament, Hurry Up wrote the songs that would become Dismal Nitch. Recorded on the brink of disaster (late 2019-early 2020), the record is a cracked crystal ball with fire in its heart. Drummer Kathy Foster (Thermals, All Girl Summer Fun Band, Roseblood), guitarist Westin Glass (Thermals) and bassist Maggie Vail (Bangs) share equal writing / singing duties, conjuring a vision of a world whirling with firestorms - social, emotional, political and literal. Dismal Nitch is one of 2022’s most compelling releases, impossible to ignore.

Since Grazed is either the 14th or 16th record depending on how you count them (but who's counting?) by Eleventh Dream Day, a Chicago band with Kentucky roots. After 2015"s blistering guitar blast Works For Tomorrow, Janet Beveridge Bean, Rick Rizzo, and Douglas McCombs return alongside James Elkington and Mark Greenberg. The hour of music on this 2xLP takes the long road home, spacing out at the wheel and reveling in the journey - celebrating those along for the ride. This is not a record about what is lost, but what is still there, however nicked up and grazed it may be. Built from the bottom up, the 12 songs here start simply with acoustic guitar and a voice and layer a lush symphony of sound over the band's most melodic tunes to-date.

Billie

Release: 2020 / US – Original

Genre: Rock & Indie

Billie, the second OUT album, is a Michigan thunderstorm compressed onto 30 minutes of exhilarating wax. It covers a lot of stormy territory, violent, heavy & exhilarating at once ' health scares; departed friends; the trials of living with a (loving) partner for the last 16 years; relatives who say awful garbage at holiday dinners; a brave friend who put it all on the line one fateful night; gettin' wild when kids are out of the house. All manner of pox & canker. For all the gloom & doom, there's equal sunlight cutting through the clouds. Lightning can kill, but it's also awesome, right? When you see OUT live, you might find yourself shouting along with a refrain like 'who's feeling like dirt?' but you'll also find yourself grinning while you're doing it. As Brian Schill wrote about OUT's debut, Swim Buddies, 'each of the 11 tracks is simultaneously fist-pumping & bleak - just right for the America to come - [to] engage in what Judith Butler once called the 'politics of despair.''

Karl Hendricks Trio

THE KARL HENDRICKS TRIO is a Pittsburgh rock institution. Having released nine full-lengths and six singles of uncompromising, emotionally charged, very loud rock over the course of twenty years, it's probably safe to call them an American rock institution as well. A former bedroom 4-track confessionalist, Karl Hendricks formed the Trio late in 1991. The band has undergone numerous line-up changes since, having had four different drummers, four different bass players, and during the two separate spans when the band augmented to a four-piece dubbed appropriately enough, the Karl Hendricks Rock Band, two different rhythm guitarists. The one constant has been, of course, Karl himself. The Trio debuted on record with 1992's Buick Electra, released on Karl's own Peas Kor label. From the mid '90s to the early 2000s the trio released several albums on Merge Records, and in 2007, Hendricks self-released the one and only Karl Hendricks Rock Band album, The World Says, on his Surplus Anxiety imprint. Comedy Minus One's release of The Adult Section in 2012 officially marks the end of the Karl Hendricks Rock Band Mark II and the return of the stripped-down Trio line-up. Karl's sound and his approach to songwriting have only gotten more nuanced and thoughtful with age. Musically, the Trio remains rooted in a muscular yet melodic sound built on a massive wall of guitars, and a bass and drum assault that powers things forward as much as it anchors them down. It's a straightforward aesthetic but it has allowed Karl's guitar playing to develop into a more sprawling and heroic version of the spirited six-string blasts of his youth. Edition of 500 copies with bonus CD version.

Preorder shipping from 2024-05-10

Angles, intersections, connections. Some projects are 50-year plans, while others flow from friendship, serendipity and ideally, opportunity. Deep Tunnel Project arose out of Chicago, pandemic boredom diverted into creation, inspired by their urban setting and street grids, and the ultimate idea that what is never finished will never be done. Deep Tunnel Project are John Mohr and Mike Greenlees of TAR, Tim Midyett from Silkworm / Bottomless Pit / Mint Mile / Sunn O))) and Jeff Dean of Dead Ending, The Bomb, Heavy Seas, Her Head’s on Fire and more. This is their debut full-length.
