The Snow // Memory Loss

Produced and mixed by Hugh Worskett

You've got your long hair,
I've got my toupée. 
I'm just a fake Liberace in a coupe.
You've got some dollar,
I've got my 2p.
You fed me cake to get me fat then you outgrew me

Mr. Fist straight to your nose.
Got a ride on the bruise cruise,
When all you thought you deserved was a rose.
Mr. Fist, that's how it goes.
Got a ride on the bruise cruise,
When all you thought you deserved was a rose.

You livin' healthy?
I bought this smoothie,
And got my aspidistra glidin', getting droopy.
I'm getting girthy 
Under my duvet.
I wanna spend the afternoon like in that movie.

Mr. Fist straight to your nose.
Got a ride on the bruise cruise,
When all you thought you deserved was a rose.
Mr. Fist, that's how it goes.
Got a ride on the bruise cruise,
When all you thought you deserved was a rose.

Here I am with lust applied,
Man to man, our cocks entwined. 
You shut the door on my wrinkled pride.
I've butcher's spirt but no knife.
Carve my meat with gravied eyes.
Comfort me, I swig from Mummy.
Comfort me and think I'm funny.

Mr Fist

Outrun Me

Taken from the EP 'Do You' set to be released on cassette 24th March, Blessin' are four friends from Denton, TX making blissed-out guitar pop with shoegaze aspirations.

Like Real Estate on codeine, 'Do You' is influenced by anxiety, friendship and damaged girls. Opener 'Inside Out' is a succinct introduction to the blissed out jangle-gaze that becomes signature throughout the five tracks.

With clear plastic marbled artwork by Maxwell Morris, the release comes on a pristine white tape in a limited run of 50. Ahead of the March 24th release date, copies are available to pre-order from our store now - artishardrecords.limitedrun.com/. We haven't ever properly released an American band before, which I guess says a lot about the quality of 'Do You' - we can't wait for you to all to hear it.

Blessin' - Inside Out

Taken from the debut album 'Dromes' released in September 2013 on Sonic Cathedral

Running Water

Less than a year has passed since Naomi Baguley spotted Ben Lewis wearing a Perfect Pussy t-shirt in a Leeds nightclub and they began trading song ideas through phone voice memos. A first batch of ramshackle demos recorded in Lewis’ bedroom soon led to a sold-out debut show at Leeds’ Oporto, before Bruising began hosting a series of cult house parties in Hyde Park living rooms with the likes of Waxahatchee, Twin Peaks and Trust Fund. Word soon got out, and praise started coming in from the most unlikely of places – Andrew W.K, for instance and, in true fairy-tale style, Perfect Pussy’s own Meredith Graves.

Off the back of two stand-out contributions to our own Vol. 3 and Art Is Hard’s Family Portrait Pt. II earlier this year, Bruising return with their debut single ‘Emo Friends’, with a re-recording of early demo ‘Honey’ making up the AA single. Now split between Berlin and Leeds as Baguley begins a year studying abroad, the band reconvened at Suburban Home Studios in Leeds to record the single with Hookworms’ MJ. 

‘Emo Friends’ deals with the pains of helplessly watching both your own and your friends’ lives falling apart, and all that you can do to combat it is to have fun with them. Infectious guitar melodies contrast with Baguley’s softly layered cries of “I want to feel okay” before the song climaxes, in Lewis’ tongue-firmly-in-cheek words, “like the big smoocher hit at the end of an American teen movie circa 1999”. ‘Honey’, on the other hand, is a re-recording of the first song the duo wrote together, transformed from bedroom demo to straight up pop-punk hit. Baguley and Lewis try and out-do each other throughout, with floating vocals and ever-more venomous guitar lines thrown back and forth.

‘Emo Friends’ / ‘Honey’ is released 20th November on 7” vinyl and digitally via Beech Coma. Pre-order the single and/or sign up to the Beech Coma Singles Club here - https://beechcoma.bandcamp.com/album/emo-friends-honey-single

About "Roach Goin' Down"

In their formative years, Palberta’s live performances often involved moments of synchronized dancing and humorous performance art in between or during songs. Touring the states extensively, they developed a reputation as a “must-see” live band on the DIY circuit. Over the course of the last five years, they've honed in on a distinct and arresting sound, incorporating gorgeous three-part harmonies into their chaotic grooves and working with a slew of talented musicians from within their circle. Eventually the mercurial nature of their early performances began to manifest itself in their music, with each Palberta release proving to be more full of surprises than the last.
Roach Goin' Down is Palberta's most impressive album to date. Twenty-two tracks combine the band's signature frenetic instrumentation with a thoroughly developed pop sensibility that fans merely glimpsed on previous releases. The songs are lovingly crafted and shine with the confidence of a band discovering new musical possibilities and having a blast doing it. As usual, their excitement is sonically palpable, yet this time it's grounded by a lyrical nuance and newfound melancholy that gives the record an air of maturity compared to previous releases.

Recorded by frequent collaborator Paco Cathcart (The Cradle), Roach Goin' Down is a brilliantly constructed work of beauty and bile. Palberta continue to pave the way as innovators in the field of guitar-based music, delivering a barrage of twisted, catchy hymns that manage to be both challenging and feverishly compelling.

Stucco Thieves is the new LP by New York City's The Sediment Club. This new collection of 9 songs marks 10 years since the band's formation in 2008. Stucco Thieves tells an abbreviated and frank series of human bankruptcy accounts from the post Pax-Americana perspective. The Sediment Club wrench and berate their instruments to make Stucco Thieves a concise, brutal landscape filled with tales that range from slapstick to cruel. Hapless characters embody greed, change form, and reflect on the crumbling infrastructure of a “cobalt ruin.” Stucco Thieves holds our shared predicament of doom in the casual pass of a snarl, “a dungeon shook,” and a dropped bag of dirt. Honey's chromosomes are dying fast, falling out of vogue, and turning to a “shadow soon.”

For 10 years The Sediment Club has shown a commitment to dissonance while touring their brand of it extensively around North America challenging audiences and rallying fellow outsiders. They will continue to do so into the next decade.

The debut album from Chicago based Deeper. Origins of the project date back to 2014 where the band has made their mark locally supporting like minded acts Omni, Protomartyr, Chris Cohen & fellow Chicago powerhouses Whitney & Ne-Hi. Fresh off official after show appearances at Pitchfork & Lollapalooza the band is poised to jump out wide with this debut record. 9 tracks channel the anxiety and uneasiness of modern life in this pit of endless internet, chiming post punk rave ups with pointed "of the times" lyrics & gorgeous ambient interludes woven in.

Deeper - Pink Showers

What is music? It is a vibration in the air caught in the resonance of a room, but also the resonance of emotions in our own bodies. A resonance that bounces back and forth between our head and toes which lifts our head as well as it moves our legs. When we resonate with music it is a growing feedback loop of joy that lets us loose ourselves to leave to other dimensions. So take your time, feel the beat and resonate...

Lui Mafuta - Bombadille (Luca Musto Remix)

In 2016, after reissuing two Bruce Haack albums, Haackula and Electric Lucifer Book II, Telephone Explosion began speaking with Ted Pandel (Bruce’s lifelong friend and business partner) about working on the 1970 masterpiece The Electric Lucifer. It turned out there was another matter that he wanted to discuss: finding a final resting place for the Bruce Haack archive.

We were shown test-pressings of The Electric Lucifer board mixes from his Columbia studio sessions, countless pieces of written music, a large number of personal photos, an invitation from Raymond Scott inviting Bruce to play his newly created Electronium instrument (now owned by Devo’s Mark Mothersbaugh), poems, press clippings, and, most importantly, a heavy-duty shelf containing 213 reel-to-reel tapes. 

All of the chosen material on The Preservation Tapes is unreleased, and has only been heard by a handful of people. 

The Bruce Haack archive is now resting in the Provincial Archives of Alberta, in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Flamingus - Androgyn (Landhouse Remix)

from 'Radiate Through You' [CD|LP|DIGITAL]
Denovali Records · den295
available on all formats at http://denovali.com/ensembleeconomique

The latest long-player of devotional noir by Humboldt County romantic Brian Pyle aka Ensemble Economique was originally titled Music Saves Lives, in response to the misguided backlash directed at underground artists in the wake of the tragic Ghost Ship fire in Oakland. Since Pyle’s career threads through a decade and a half of Northern California’s independent experimental music community, the blow struck a uniquely deep and personal chord. As a way to process, he began recording at his coastal home studio in Manila, California, channeling inner states of mind, seeking something “more personal and intimate, the idea of love, and shining through.”

Radiate Through You delivers on its title, exuding a nuanced catharsis, alternately tempestuous and transcendent, forlorn but undefeated. Vaulted heavens of interwoven electronics ebb into hushed dirges of skeletal percussion and candlelit guitar. Roiling noise seethes, swells, and subsides as an ashen string arrangement rises in the mix, keening a somber, circular elegy, as if overtaken by memory on a long walk alone.

Two key guest appearances lend the album even more dynamism and drama: the first by Barcelona synthesist Alexander Molero on the questing, celestial opener, “Music Is Life,” the second by New Zealand psychic sisters Purple Pilgrims on the devastating finale, “Blue Hour.” Both showcase impressive shades of Pyle’s finesse as producer and muse, sparking his collaborators to new heights.

Whether taken as expressionist memorial, therapeutic song cycle, or something more ambiguous, Radiate Through You stands as a pensive, passionate statement by an enduring light of the West Coast canon, drawn from “a deep, special place of giant emotions, feelings.”

BIT-TUNER — ARABIAN NIGHTS — OUS015 — Live Album

Release: September 7, 2018
Format: Cassette +digital

Flexuous, Synchronous, Capricious

Bit-Tuner’s «Arabian Nights» is based on tapes,  eld recordings and sounds produced in Cairo. The glea- ming heat of Egypt was processed into a grinding 40-minute live set, contrasting the layered textures with Bit-Tuner’s signature staccato beats. Swirling sounds fall into place as the recording evolves. As blasts of wind carry away the dust, sights of a dense and vibrant metropolis are set free.

After his previous works «The Japan Syndrome», «The China Syndrome» and «Athina Tape», Bit-Tuner’s new recording «Arabian Nights» takes an edgy approach: He extracts grainy physicalness from his sounds and brews them in his high-energy arrangements. It is this directness that marks Bit-Tuner’s distinctive qualities as a live act. He manages to tell stories through waves of sonic pressure.
