Ladada is Virginia Beach native Josiah Schlater. After years of recording and touring in other bands (MAE, We Are Trees, Jake Clemons), Schlater has now settled into a lively, sun-drenched sound of his own. Taking inspiraton from early Motown and 60's garage rock, he squeezed a drum kit, a couple guitars, a 4-track, and a netbook into a small storage unit and began recording what became Ladada.

Dogs On Acid - Flushed

What if you fall in love with your new home and forget about me? What if you can't remember what the best state around is? What if I'm left in love but left alone and you forget about me? What if we lose touch before we're even there? I've spent every night of this week by myself. I guess I'm used to living without you. I'd spend every night of my life by myself if it meant you did what you want to. What if you fall in love with your new home and forget about me? What if we can't remember we're the best? What if I'm left in love but left alone and you forget about me? What if we lose touch before we're even there? I've spent every night of this month by myself. I guess I'm used to being without you. I'd spend every night of my life by myself if it meant you did what you want to.

Princess BubbleScum - Earth, Wind, And Coolio

The lo-fi dust from their sell-out debut 'Honey Milk and Blood' EP – critically-acclaimed by NME, DIY, Brooklyn Vegan and bloggers worldwide – has been truly blown away with big guitars, big drums, and even bigger choruses as Shunkan transformed itself from the bedroom project of 21-year-old LA-born (but NZ based) Marina Sakimoto to an unmistakably natural full band affair.

With the sessions recorded in Lyttleton, Christchurch NZ, Sakimoto says of the record “the inspiration was honesty and clarity, and the struggle of keeping your demons at bay. The lyrics are vulnerable and straight forward with hints of abstract imagery and setting.”

’The Pink Noise' will be released via a limited run of pink 12” records + tape on November 20th. Available for pre-order now from http://artishardrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/pink-noise

---

man is crippled and dead and 
meek and eager in his sin

turn around, say you love the way I
hang around, you miss the spark in my eyes

I was a queen last night
I said take to the water
and let you drink my lies
like "okay, you're right"

you can't spell pain or kiss
or run away or little mistake 
without me or A, E, I, O, U

it's not at all unusual
to melt like a ball of wax or
to take what I didn't ask for

it's important being me
it's so important being me

Vowels (and the Importance of Being Me)

This World Is Fucked

Far, far away
I'll be waiting
Save, save the date
We'll be staying
At the edge of an ocean

We'll run away, run away
Some day, some day
I know that I always say
Some day

You belong in the summer sun
With me
Eventually

Wait, please just wait,
Please be patient,
We'll have a life long vacation
At the edge of an ocean

We'll run away, run away
Some day, some day
There's a reason why I always say
Some day

You belong in the summer sun
With me
Eventually 
We'll run away
We'll run away
