Gotta love an album that was banned in the US for an association with psychedelics. When Brainticket’s debut was first on the shelves, it bore a sticker that posed the idea, that…
Much as I’ve always enjoyed the excess and mutability of King Gizz over the years, I’ve had quite the soft spot for their less lauded labelmates The Murlocs. The band’s stuck to…
Another dip into the preserves for Matt Valentine. This records landed on the digital radar as a Bandcamp Friday release, but Feeding Tube have done us all the service of loading up…
A super limited release from Omeed Goodarzi along with an contingent of Vermont psych players lands from Feeding Tube and LookyHere. With help from Brattleboro scene stealers Ruth Garbus and Chris Weisman,…
A second new release from Indiana’s Landon Caldwell is announced today, following shortly on his new cassette for Trouble In Mind’s Explorer’s Series. This time he’s joined by an assemblage of musicians…
