D/WOLVES-s/t Holy smokes. D/Wolves is gold. So strange and thrilling and groovy and damn lush. Incredible confidence and ability from these youngsters from San Diego. It's somehow mystical, pop, and thumping all at once. I don't love singing that often, but Jessie brings it. Buy it for your relatives and they will put you in their will. You are a catfish, d/wolves are the fishermen, you are hooked and you are happy.
Not since USF have I been so thrilled to put something out. And an awesome Dune reference to boot! |

BIRTHDAYS-s/t Sam is awesome. Buried pop tastiness as viewed through sandy sunglasses. The cover art (balloons on a ceiling, viewed upside down) reminds me of the effect of Birthdays' music as it's psychedelic, but in a sober way that's refreshing. This ep is filled to the brim with ace hooks and handcrafted percussion boogie. I fell in love with these songs immediately and he pulls them off great live.
Sam is going to be someone when he grows up, dammit. |

HOLZKOPF/UTEROZZZAAA-1000 flowers I was supposed to release this so long ago. As an apology to the world it's a dollar cheaper.
Immense, intense split. Legion tracks by both artists. Holzkopf, Canadian noise spectrum. Uterozzzaaa, schizo-brain salad from Japan that makes Melt Banana sound like Soul Coughing. over 16 tracks and 55 minutes everything is destroyed, nothing remains. every sound that has ever occurred is somehow buried within. Bafflingly complimentary storm fronts collapse into nihilistic doomsday.
Rad art by JakeHolzkopf. |

KING CRAB-Downwarring I always loved KC, but Downwarring is a definite step forward in their quest to stay strange. A moog/drums duo at their core, here they step out and around, coming frighteningly close to structure, something they've tended to avoid in the past. As well, when past textures were intentionally born from shoddy gear, they take their time here to brew a more tempered elixir. Always heady, sometimes crabby, the king reigns on.
Sadly, the Crab is no more for now. Ryan moved to the UK, hopefully we'll see ZK with a theremin album someday.
Cover art is ZK and his TV experiments. |

||||||||
COLOR RABBIT-Snowdrift Constellations & Moon Landing emotional intrigue pans through your personal space in the shape of curved, thin, neon lines and washes of rippling fabric. intentionally un-pin-downable, songs cascade like hot honey. all manner of instrumentation are at home here. exploring the compositional boundaries between the song and the flow. centered meditation hallucinations!
another gift to the world from patrick, who continues to put out increasingly high quality work at a youthful stride. art by the man himself. color rabbit continues to be one waskiy wabbit. |

GDFX-Altered Ego i first met greg at a record fair, super nice dude. greg is a madman. he plays drums for teethmountain, the dan deacon ensemble, and liturgy. holy shoot.
gdfx is what greg does on his own. blasted out, distorted speaker vibrations of street beat, 8bitz nostalgia, and more than a few hidden 'singles', this is a continuous 28 minute track, lovingly packaged on cassette. clever, giddy, and spaz-dance-worthy, you can hear greg laughing to himself throughout. the sound of ancient future, for sure! |
 |
||||||||
INFURIUM-The Black Arts Vanterious is 19 and hails from Tennessee. Vanterious channels the darkness of Scandanavian blackmetal through the diy/one-mand-band ethos of those like Xasthur to offer you this collection of ritualistic jams. Like all my favorite black metal, Vanterious gets the ingredients right between depression/gloom and driving melody. Tennessee is the new Norway. |  |
||||||||
ARKLIGHT-Shards and Ashes the first you notice about Arklight's new full-length is how much more introspective and personal this release sounds. included are all the Arklight trademarks you know you love: the disorienting panning, the psychic sampling, the deader-than-deadpan vocals, but with a heavier emotional weight than previous releases. Arklight, always confusing, ever intriguing, and never so pure. and great sample from my personal favorite blur song ever, blue jeans. sweet dvd case packaging. |
|
||||||||
ROBE-The
Dying Light oh yeah. straight-up ambient doom. Robe. are a thousand amps on the top of a black mountain. Robe. is an immense, abandoned sinking ship scrapping against brittle corral. their sounds are not antagonistic as much as the atmosphere and echoes of a physical space in which apparition aplenty roam and kick over everything in dreary slow-mo. dark and vague and strong. |
 |
||||||||
UNIVERSAL STUDIOS FLORIDA-Ocean Seabirds hot on the heels of their quickly sold out ep, USF are back to light up your life with a killer full-length. Imagine you are sixteen, skinny dipping in a remote lagoon of clear water surrounded by cgi jungle animals with golden boom boxes... that's sort of what it sounds like, but the reality is more colorful and relaxing. super organic produce, digitally produced with beats and melody. featuring guest appearances by blind man's colour, big spider's back, and alaskas. definitely one of my absolute favorite LFT releases to date. pack your bong. summer is here. |

|||||||||
SPARAGMOS-Life Conditions LFT mega-verteran sparagmos with another ep of one-man-band homespun indie goodness. sparagmos reminds you what was so right about the honest, proficient instrumental guitar bands of the late 90s. and he finds the time despite recently becoming a father (one of the tracks is a lullaby to his son). clearly made by one content dude. music for slowly driving around rural pennsylvania, which is what my homeboy does. go eric!

SPERMWHALES and COLOR RABBIT-split two of my favorite sound friends made a split together and it's the best i've heard from either. both have gotten a ton of support and fans of either will be stoked by what happens when they play this. the five spermwhales tracks are his most extreme in their purity, beauty and grace. the colorabbit tracks are somehow both more focused and more stream-of-conscious affairs. rad album art and insert by colorabbit. the first time i played this i was playing boggle stoned and i still can't shake my first experience with this release. this is a sweet treat with 13 songs running 58 mins! |

COLOR RABBIT-Space Placement i hear new things every time i enter its foliage. 48 minutes of beautiful, forward-tumbling, stream-of-unconsciousness. sliding from camp sing-songs to digital deconstruction to buried-alive folk wonderment, everything encapsulated. this is what i imagine when i imagine what i want music to sound like. rad art and insert by the man himself. |

FAITH/LIGHTSPEED-Meth faith/lightspeed's full-length is weird. it makes you feel confused. like, there are 5 songs playing at the same time confused. which is exactly why this album rules so much. something is very right in all this wrong. strange, crooked samples fistfight with i-don't-want-to-do-my-chores-bedroom-guitar and it all ends up personal and honest. music so free. here you get the seven song ep "meth" plus 12 bonus tracks for a whopping 1.2 hour brainfart-monsoon! rad, rad coverart by f/l, every copy is hand drawn and hand colored and they look amazing. great cover shots on his myspace. |

REALAX-Apollo Guise Heavy-smoke-drone-core by Brooklyn's Josiah. Sound-design-spreads meld into psych-drum-nostalgia. Alien melodies overtake rusting hardrives... buried and unburied and reburied emotions surface in treated guitars peaking through. Fuzzy and textured, but never harsh. Endless foreign soil to explore. organic? electronic? Beautiful, strange, full-length, debut! Art by Josiah. |

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS FLORIDA-s/t Trip fantastic. Gentle uplifting harmonies breath on walkers-pace-beatage. Proper driving music for the carefree and generous soul! Hints of golden-age Reflex from wise new-youth (more fun than fun itself). Debut from Seattle with 28mins of neon-fractal-fabric you can chair-dance to. Lovingly packaged with heart cloth, fresh inserts, and art by USF |

SPERM WHALES-Endless Sea Of Clouds Brent lives in Maryland and makes beautiful music. all instrumental, slowly unfolding, casual puzzles. paisley fractals abound with each track. sometimes acoustic, sometimes electronics, always peaceful as a day without work and nothing to do. packaged in burlap pouches with a nice insert and CD marker art by Brent. this album is fullll length! |
 |
||||||||
|
|||||||||
THE QUESTIONMARKS- The Questionmarks are from japan and they play mindboggling garage fuzz. this ep has got an alternate universe radio hit in 'the ghost left town' on which a member of DMBQ guests and features sweet chick-vocal breakdown! also features some great live tracks, two bizarre folksy tunes with Keito's grandma and grandpa, and a noise freakout. i feel cool as shit when i listen to this...guitar sounds swirl everywhere. packaged in nice brasspinned paper with weird insert. |

FARMACIA-Nosocomio Manicomio these guys freak me out. they would make straight-up, spot-on future-party-electro if they didn't end up visiting the pharmacy and making music like this. what we have here is electronic dance music that is more than a bit blurry around the edges. as fun to listen to as it certainly was to make. these guys go to weird parties. fresh cassette package! |

Mother 33 - Frozen Children; Broken Streetlight; Empty Building; Search Party: Anxiety LFT-035
visit Mother 33 @ MYSPACE! I first met Stan and Chris when they hopped on a tour with Marc Antony. They were on their way to play a show up in New Paltz, i was tagging along with some friends who were playing the same show. That night, in a basement in the middle-of-nowhere in upstate new york Mother33 played and, much to my delight, completely confounded the post-hardcore crowd. Stan had his key-tar, Chris had his mic. they slayed. its all industrial and electro and high on sugar. i love Mother 33 with all my heart. they hail from Russellville, Arkansas. |

| LOPLOP-are those wizard hands? (3 cdr eps/edt. of 50) -$8 LFT-032 One rainy afternoon, sister Lop and brother Lop found a dusty ukulele and violin in their parent's attic . not knowing how to play the instruments, they started to make sounds that became songs. this debut ep comes in three parts: a solo section from each Lop, and a collaborative song cycle under LopLop. physical packaging includes three cds in a mongo-laminated sleeve.

| Padna- the shore that feared the sea (cd-full length + 30min dvd/edt. of 250) -$10.99 LFT-030 Padna's third full-length comes correct with outlandish examples of perplexed joy and friendly fire! A fine variety of personal experiences embedded directly into the sounds as all manner of tangible (and otherworldly) objects are employed in this valiant effort for communal empathy. This is as beautiful and strange as it wants to be. Built around a conceptual root, Padna invites all manner of process into the recordings- a chair creek becomes a bird flock, a car passing becomes a glacier thaw, computer ticks become a cow heart. *DVD Clip!* The accompanying DVD, Hidden Animals, was conceived while Padna (sound) and C.Diehl (video) toured together in the summer of '06 through the north-west. This DVD is an elaborate expansion of their live collaboration- it smokes. AND it all comes in a lovely hand crafted white-felt shelter! geez-louise! |

| Ernest George-restaurant blvd. (cdr/two discs: one originals, one covers/edt. of 40) SOLD OUT!!!! LFT-029 George Harrison (yup, that's his real name) has been writing original music for over 10 years. By day he rocks out at his grocery store job, by night he works the local karaoke circuit, and when he's home he writes damned honest music. He sings about everything you don't: monkeys, chicken, salad bars, and the restaurant blvd. This is the first time George's music has been made available. Also included is a bonus disc of George covering his favorite classics from do-wop to Neil Young! *lovingly packaged in a dvd-case! |

| The Galactic Burrito Affair-s/t (cdr/two track, 20 minute ep/edt. of 30) -$5 LFT-027 A wooly blend of off-kilter sound events meticulously collaged into a fashionably drafty cape! Two tracks, each recorded over a two-day period (one in buffalo, one in brooklyn) combine to form a psychedelic cavalcade of happy circumstances and disruptive bio-rhythms. These 20 minutes contain every sound in the universe. This is a Sporagmos/Padna collaboration *The cover art is a "finish-my-picture" project between the two sound pirates, every cover is different, so super-limited! duh! |

| Padna-goofy gushy (cdr-double full length/edt. of 100) SOLD-OUT!!! LFT-025 The sophmore double-LP release, Goofy Gushy, was created over three years by Padna, alone at home. Using a thorough sound spectrum of household cleaning supplies, incidental weather, pseudo-traditional instruments, and shamanistic mechanical malfunctions, Padna makes warm imagination music for headphone heroes. Splicing sideways acoustic balladry with over heating casio meltdowns and fuzzy bliss anthems, the eternal quest to "not be sad" drives Padna onwards. |

They didn't really hang out until many, many years later when they both ended up in Brooklyn where they started jamming and quickly decided that... happiness was, in fact, here to stay. H.I.H.T.S. compose after-hours anthems for barn animals utilizing rhythm boxes, sound string sticks, and junkyard synths. Their debut release, Ant Varnish EEE, spans styles from voice collage to crafty pop to robo-dose rock. Good times from handsome men. |

Instrumental, yet strongly narrative in feel, perfect for any deserted island D&D sessions! Visible atmospheres and scented melodies abound! Eric Daum was the drummer for Buffalo indie-shoegazer legends No Trips For Crowley and Astronaut Lost. This is his second ep as Sporagmos and features three Padna collabor-tration tracks. |

| Tropical Tentacles-S/T (cdr-ep/edt. of 40) -$5 LFT-019 An experiment in postal collaboration possibilities... Tropical Tentacles! ... padna (east coast) and carl (cococainut west coast mastermind) came up with this great idea while drunk in Syracuse, many, many holidays ago. The plan seemed simple enough: each artist would compose an original track, mail it to the other person. Then they would remix the first two tracks together independently and mail the remixes... then both would combine the remixes... that's when it started to get really weird... This cdr chronicles the increasingly bizarre growth of these two original tentacles into a pulsating electr-o-ctopus! Pscyhedelic freakout for the AC adaptor generation! (there's this cool map inside every package explaining the process a little more clearly...). Ten cover variations! |

| Us Vs Them-i wrote this in the dark (cdr-ep/edt. of 50) -$3 LFT-018 UVT got back together to record the last three songs they wrote before breaking up. Why? Because they're the three best songs they ever wrote, that's why. Meant to be listened to together, these three tracks create a succinct song cycle of angular smooth math and boyish exaltation. This music will help you ollie higher, I swear. UVT are a three-piece instrumental indie rock band from Brooklyn that have since gone their separate ways, but still talk. |
