Burning Star Core
Cincinnati native C. Spencer Yeh has been releasing records under the Burning Star Core moniker since 1993. A classically trained violinist, Yeh is the center of the amorphous free noise group whose past collaborators have included: Comets on Fire, Hotogisu, Chris Corsano and Thurston

Circle
Drenched in percussion with sinister vocals, keyboards and acoustic riffs - "Forest" is a departure from the metallic heaviness of recent Circle albums while still keeping the repetitive, circular groove that has defined the bands sound. Dark, eerie soundscapes that will not put the mind at ease.
....
Circle is a band whose sound is constantly evolving. That evolution continues with Earthworm, a four song EP released on the eve of their third US tour. Earthworm finds the band further integrating their love of late seventies/early eighties metal with the 'circular' Kraut-influenced psych that
....
The members of Circle have been listening to a lot of
‘80s black metal lately (ie. Venom, Celtic Frost). As a
result, the premier kraut-influenced, psychedelic band
have created their most dark and twisted record to date
– which, for those familiar with Circle, know is no
small feat. Don’t let

Coptic Light
The debut full-length from Coptic Light (NYC) is a massive piece of music. Consisting of three epic, dark, and moody instrumentals -- these musicians have been around the block and their expertise shows. They've created a truly unique album with atmosphere (which can't be said for everything that
....
Doug Paisley
An album of folk songs that represent the American malaise. Sure, Doug Paisley is Canadian (Toronto, to be exact) but so was Neil Young and four-fifths of The Band, and that didn’t stop them from tapping into the collective psyche of the continent. It would be bold of us to say this debut is on the
....
Earth
Earth crawled out of the small logging towns of Washinton State and began deafening ears in the eary 90's. Their fourth album Sunn Amps and Smashed Guitars was originally recorded for Blast First Records in 1995, but has been out of print since the initial pressing of 500 copies sold out.
....
Seattle band Earth have a had a less than luxurious career consisting of substance addictions, catastrophic live performances and angry record labels. Yet through the tumultuous haze they managed to release a number of highly regarded studio albums in the early to mid 90's. Often attributed to

Electric Turn To Me
Debut EP from this short lived NYC band. Twisted psych pop.
Electric Turn To Me played a kind of pop music unique all to itself. Dark and synth driven yet with an urgency reminiscent of early punk. Songs that twist and turn but with melodies so familiar they'll bury themselves in your head ....
2nd EP with five catchier, more focused songs. Dark and moody.
Electric Turn To Me played a kind of pop music unique all to itself. Dark and synth driven yet with an urgency reminiscent of early punk. Songs that twist and turn but with melodies so familiar they'll bury themselves in your ....
Endless Boogie
Endless Boogie began with no delusions of grandeur. They started off as an “old mans hobby” – just dudes jamming on riffs, locking into grooves, finding that transcendental part of a song and stretching it into eternity. Then they were offered a show. They played more shows. They self-released two
....
Final
Reading All The Right Signals Wrong is a new full-length, and a rare vinyl release for Final (the sub tones complement the format nicely, we must say). The LP version (tracks 1-4) is available in a one-time edition of 1,500. The CD version (tracks 1-8)includes 4 additional tracks of alternate ....
Laddio Bolocko
Laddio Bolocko may have come and gone, but in their short existence made a huge impact on the New York music scene by fusing ambience with loud, abrasive rock into a tornado of chaos, precision and heaviness. Their disintegration in 2001 left many in shock. The recordings went unavailable and the
....
The Psychic Paramount
The studio-recorded debut from this risk-taking group comprised of former Laddio Bolocko members Drew St. Ivany (guitar) and Ben Armstrong (bass), along with current Sabers member Jeff Conaway (drums). A power-blast of epic kraut/psych jamming, propelled with layers of guitar, forceful rhythms, and
....
The Psychic Paramount apologize for any harm their debut album Gamelan Into The Mink Supernatural may have caused to your speakers. Undoubtedly the loudest album released in 2005, Gamelan... introduced the world to this mysterious three piece from New York City. Origins and Primitives is not the
