On this new 7" extended player Oakland-based noise rockers Permanent Collection strip down their sound and present four new songs that churn, agitate and rupture. With throbbing bass tones, violent guitar scrapes and on point percussive splatter, PC returns with a release that retains their regard towards heavy melodic intonation. These dark, hook-filled post-punk pieces present a theme change for the band in response to the wearing, over congested Modern Era.

7" on Loglady Records. 2013.

Permanent Collection is Jason Hendardy, Brenden Nerfa and Mike Stillman.

From the EP, Rain Shapes out on Loglady Records

The Woolen Men are Alex Geddes, Lawton Browning and Raf Spielman. They live and work in Portland, OR where they create fast, loose songs and recordings that reinforce their punk influenced short form pop. Their classic craftsmanship can hint at 90's Portland/Seattle forebearers, but unarguably Woolen Men are a contemporary statement of modern life, both in their city and as artists/musicians/scholars.

Woolen Men - Rain

Portland's trio, Woolen Men, are back with a new 7" EP, "Rain Shapes", that follows up their acclaimed LP on Woodsist and their "Quick Trips" 7" EP on Loglady Records. In classic fashion this EP continues what Woolen Men's songs are described as by Pitchfork: "quick count-off, clanging guitar, galloping drums, distant organ wheezing, and underwater vocals,... which typifies the melodic 1960s rock with '90s indie production values". In our opinion it's punk influenced short form pop which meets classic song-craftsmanship. For fans of The Clean, The Chills, Television Personalities, etc. 

Limited to 300. Release date: March 31

Woolen Men - No Deal

While an active participant within Austin's garage rock scene (Dazzling king Solomon Band,Toko ri get high) as well as the Bay Area's Time Flys , David Speck unexpectedly released a handful of 4-track Casio synth-pop sketches. These, as one would expect, left him reflecting on his direction and upon a more permanent relocation to San Francisco, Speck became Part Time. From his home in Tenderloin Heights, he now jams out that post-Cure pop, rubbed up flirtatious against West Coast surf and Krautrock grooves. His thick, sun-bleached songs are a murmur of sweet nothings amidst the buzz of city life; hip shaken with friends, longing eyes over crowded rooms, laughter along love emanating from cute voices in your radio… Part Time is, in other words, the sound of a man with his priorities in good order, inviting you to join him for a better time. You totally should. 

Part Time - Visions of the future

Terry Malts - Disconnect

Second Single off Part Time's I Belong To You  7". This single reveals intimate reflections--of song-writer, Davida's life--set to a synthy track with dreamy 80's pop influences. Fans of Part Time's earlier releases will connect with this new side of the band. Both tracks offer a more intimate and romantic side of Part Time, leaving listeners with an MDMA-like high.

Part Time - My Rubber Room

First single from Legs "Pass the Ringo" LP 
Vinyl and Digital available on Loglady Records April 23, 2013. 

Named after their fathers' mutual love for Tina Turner, Oakland, CA-based Jeffrey Harland and New Zealand native Matt Bullimore began Legs in a cold, concrete practice space in West Oakland, California. The pair originally met while exchanging Weezer bootlegs in a Safeway parking lot in early 2000. Matt would go on to teach Jeffrey his first power chord sealing their friendship and status as best-buds. Early get-togethers were dominated by heated arguments over the Beatles versus The Stones, ending only after the discovery of their mutual love of the Kinks and Velvet Underground. Flash forward to 2013, and Legs has readied their debut long-player Pass the Ringo, set for release on April 23rd on Loglady Records.

Matt's formative years were in Christchurch, NZ where he saw his high school band open for the Bats and other notable groups in the area. In fact, his pretensions went so far as to write a letter in coffee to Flying Nun, demanding a record contract. Before Jeffrey picked up the guitar and gave up all hope, he bothered himself with a BFA in media arts, there he learned important words like "simulacrum" and "Verfrem
dungseffect" as well as how to properly develop 16mm film. The two would go on to play together in several short-lived bands before embarking on their current project in 2011. Daunted by the idea of searching for like-minded bandmates, booking shows and carrying equipment, Legs remained a personal recording project for a year. The two met twice a week in their rehearsal space, Matt learned to play the drums, they demoed songs, and soon began to record themselves on a borrowed 4-track. Soon they had amassed a sizable batch of songs informed by their love of the jangle guitar pop dispatched during the early 80's by labels like Flying Nun and Creation Records. Their music glides along with simple chord progressions and rudimentary drum beats filtered through the haze of obsolete reverb units and dirty tape machines; vocals float, cymbals crash, and guitars scratch.

The two stuck it out and ultimately invited friends and family into the inner Legs circle. Several drummers were auditioned, including Patrick Lynch who can be heard on "Shades of Grey", and songs were written with Jeffrey's partner Amelia Adams in mind for vocals. Though recording increased, the band remained low key and intentionally shied away from playing live opting instead to hone their songwriting and recording craft. Recording took ages, if a song didn't have unanimous acceptance it was simply discarded resulting in an albums worth of material rejected. Along they way drummer Kevin Walker was added to the line up and the group found themselves with a collection of songs they they really enjoyed.

After recording a collection of demos the two sent out discs to anyone they could think of, getting some local press and radio play along the way. Fortunately, a disc was mailed to Jeffrey's college classmate and co-founder of Loglady Records, Jason Hendardy (also of Permanent Collection), who got in touch with duo and asked to hear more. Legs obliged. Working with Loglady Records has allowed them the freedom to develop their sound at their own pace and with the attention they need to grow as a group, all while getting to participate in the history of an increasingly influential bay area label.
