KING, B.B.	3 O'clock Blues: The Early Years 1951-62	LP	ACROBAT	ACRSLP 1671LP
$26.00 NOT IN STOCK Delayed... "B.B. King, the 'King Of The Blues' is an undisputed music icon. In a career spanning seven decades, he sold in excess of 50 million records, won 20 Grammy Awards, and played alongside artists such as Bono, Eric Clapton, The Rolling Stones, Elton John, and Stevie Wonder. A hard-working musician, King toured the world several times over, taking his extraordinary blues from the margins to the mainstream. His emotional and sophisticated soloing on his Gibson guitar, 'Lucille,' coupled with his subtle vibrato style, influenced a diverse range of artists, including, Keith Richards, Carlos Santana, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, Richie Sambora, and even 50 Cent. This fine collection brings together some of King's greatest early blues numbers. From his first hit single, 'Three O'Clock Blues,' timeless tracks such as 'Woke Up This Morning' and 'Everyday I Have The Blues,' the epic double sider 'Sweet Sixteen' finishing with his early sixties classics, 'Someday' and 'Peace Of Mind.' King was a pioneer from the very beginning, with this collection demonstrating just why the British blues bands of the late sixties revered him as a guitar god. King was inducted into the Blues Foundation Hall Of Fame in 1984, the Rock 'n' Roll Hall Of Fame in 1987, received the National Academy of the Recording Arts and Sciences Lifetime Achievement Award and awarded the Presidential Medal of the Arts in 1990. In 2006 he received the Medal of Freedom, America's highest civilian honor."

$28.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 11/14/2025 Dharmacide is a Spanish band known for their eclectic fusion of genres, blending elements of shoegaze and dreampop music. Tougher Than the Rest is their awaited second album. They take a step forward with a darker sound with gloomy riffs and ethereal voices in which they describe perfectly how the sound of a night full of random events would be like.

Dharmacide's sound is marked by intricate guitar riffs, powerful drumming, and deep, emotive vocals that create a unique atmosphere. The band, with members of Alcalá Norte and Depresión Sonora, has made a huge impact on various stages, performing at renowned venues and festivals, including iconic spots in their home country as well as internationally, earning praise for their high-energy performances and thoughtful compositions. Their latest singles have been produced, mixed and mastered by Mark Gardener from Ride. Their sound is influenced by today's bands like Diiv, Warpaint, or Beach House but also by classic artists like Cocteau Twins, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, and Tom Waits.

GOLDIE	Timeless (30th Anniversary Edition)	2LP	LONDON RECORDS	LMS 1725578
$41.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 11/7/2025 Goldie's 1995 debut Timeless is often described as one of the greatest dance music albums of all time.

NAKED LUNCH	Lights (And A Slight Taste Of Death)	CD	TAPETE RECORDS	TR 599CD
$16.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 11/7/2025 "I founded this band, and I'll bury it when I feel like it," Naked Lunch mastermind, songwriter, and singer Oliver Welter once said. Obviously, he hasn't felt like it yet. So it should come as no surprise that this band -- believed by many to be long gone -- is opening a new chapter in its eventful history, twelve years after their last critically acclaimed album All Is Fever (TR 243CD, 2013), with their new record Lights (And A Slight Taste Of Death). Following lineup changes and internal reshuffles, comes this outrageous record, on which, as seems to be the case with every Naked Lunch release, everything is once again at stake. The madness, the perspective, and the journey of songwriter and singer Oliver Welter go deep with these songs, far-reaching -- not least inward -- and from there, back out into the world. The almost fateful encounter with musician and producer Wolfgang Lehmann ("the best and most talented music interpreter ever," as Welter puts it) inspired Welter to finalize the arrangements and production of the various song drafts for Lights (And A Slight Taste Of Death) in Lehmann's studio -- with Lehmann also handling the final mix. All this, of course, was done with the support of longtime companions Alex Jezdinsky (drums) and Boris Hauf (keys/sax). Lights (And A Slight Taste Of Death) is a 14-track tour de force; demanding and harsh, yet tender and embracing. It's an intimate self-examination, spanning grand ballads like the hauntingly beautiful "Come Into My Arms or Love Don't Love Him Anymore," to sweeping, sky-storming pop anthems such as "To All And Everyone I Love, We Could Be Beautiful," or "Going Underground," and even includes completely unexpected expressive outbursts -- like a free-jazz saxophone solo in the drugged-out "If This Is The Last Song You Can Hear." Lights (And A Slight Taste Of Death) thus takes its rightful place as a consistent continuation in the tightly woven, high-quality discography of Naked Lunch.

KORWAR, SARATHY	There Is Beauty, There Already	CD	OTHERLAND RECORDS	OTH 001CD
$14.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 11/7/2025 Sarathy Korwar, genre-breaking drummer, producer and composer, announces the release of his seventh album, There Is Beauty, There Already, out on Otherland. Celebrating the melodic power of the drum ensemble, the album follows his 2022 Indofuturist manifesto KALAK with a deeply immersive longform suite of percussion-led compositions. Playing as a 40-minute suite of hypnotic and transcendent drum improvisations, the album beats through a repetitive, circular structure that brings to mind Indian folk music, jazz drum ensembles like Max Roach's M'Boom and the contemporary classical minimalism of Terry Riley and Steve Reich. From the undulating bass tones of the tabla to the tonal varieties of South Indian clay pot ghatam, the snare drum snap of the drum kit, and shades of electronic texture through the Buchla Easel, Korwar's ensemble bubbles and flows through a stream of steady rhythm, forever in motion like the ceaseless energy of a river. "The album is me finding my voice as a composer again and going back to the thing I know best, which is the drums," Korwar says. "It's me falling back in love with percussion and expressing just how melodic and emotive it can be. Unlike my other albums that have often engaged with weighty themes like migration, identity and futurism, this is a raw act of placing myself front and center -- letting the drums speak instead."

CINDY LEE	Act Of Tenderness	LP	W.25TH	W25 004LP
$25.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/31/2025 2025 repress available in Oct. "Cindy Lee is the diva alter-ego of singer/guitarist/drag queen Patrick Flegel, the one-time captain of heralded Canadian experimental guitar pop act, Women. In Flegel's working on/as Cindy Lee exclusively over recent years, their songwriting makes a move toward high atmospherics, often achieving a mysterious sweetness rooted equally in beauty and ache. As Cindy Lee's first long-form statement, Act Of Tenderness makes use of antipodal themes to create a living sound: static with grace, distortion and sugar, all masterfully arranged with crooked nods toward pop classicism. The layered vocal on 'Power And Possession' creates a palpable haunt, bringing historical girl-group lament to choir-esque heights. The feedback shriek and industrial grind of 'Bonsai Garden' provides near-operatic damage, yet never stumbles into the irrevocably grave. These snowy pieces give the album a decidedly cinematic feel, albeit one bent more towards Eraserhead. Originally released in a scant private edition in 2015, Superior Viaduct's imprint W.25TH is pleased to give Act Of Tenderness its deserving wide release."

CINDY LEE	Malenkost	LP	W.25TH	W25 003LP
$25.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/31/2025 2025 repress available in Oct. "Cindy Lee is the brainchild of singer/guitarist Patrick Flegel. While some may know Flegel from his time spent in Canadian experimental indie band Women, Cindy Lee has spent the past four years crafting songs that push and pull in opposing directions -- from tales of tragedy laced with haywire distortion to moments of breathtaking beauty. On Malenkost, Flegel combines everything that makes Cindy Lee so essential: heart-wrenching romantic pleas, rough shards of noise and twilit ballads. Featuring the lo-fi pop single 'A Message From The Aching Sky,' Malenkost sounds like Deerhunter playing The Supremes or vice versa. Superior Viaduct's imprint W.25TH presents the first of many Cindy Lee releases. Spectral and timeless, the music of Cindy Lee is hauntingly familiar yet of another plane, a magical collision of Brill Building hooks and uncompromising No Wave. 'Cindy Lee is intensely dark and cathartic, an eerie fever dream of fleeting, utterly heartbreaking classic girl-group melodies . . . one of the best things we have heard all year.' --Gorilla Vs. Bear"

CINDY LEE	Cat O' Nine Tails	LP	W.25TH	W25 016LP
$25.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/31/2025 "Originally released as an edition of 50 lathe-cut LPs housed in silk-screened jackets in 2020 (fast on the heels of What's Tonight To Eternity), Cat O' Nine Tails has long intrigued die-hard Cindy Lee fans with its combination of the classic songwriting that would dominate Diamond Jubilee a few years later and an actual suite of classical songs under the title itself. Opening with the gothic soap opera theme of 'Our Lady Of Sorrows' into the manic exploration of 'Cat O' Nine Tails,' onto the dusty western walk through Patrick Flegel's lovely guitar work on 'Faith Restored,' the album seems to soundtrack the coolest movie the late '60s ever produced. All of this builds to the lush and sweeping ballad of bruised hearts that introduces that beautiful voice via 'Love Remains.' Side two sees 2024 live show closer 'Cat O' Nine Tails III' complete the suite to epic effect, before introducing the absolute showstopper that is 'I Don't Want To Fall In Love Again.' It is tender and fragile in that way that only Flegel can make both familiar and unique. Closing with the ethereal soul shuffle stomp of 'Bondage Of The Mind,' the album showcases nine songs from an essential time in the Cindy Lee evolution. W.25TH/Superior Viaduct is proud to bring this collection to the larger audience it deserves."

CINDY LEE	Model Express	LP	W.25TH	W25 009LP
$25.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/31/2025 2025 repress available in Oct. "Cindy Lee, the performance and songwriting vehicle of Canadian artist Patrick Flegel (who fronted influential indie group Women earlier), previously stunned listeners with Act Of Tenderness, a heart-wrenching statement informed by the noirish core of celebrity, and has continued to enchant with every album, including the startling What's Tonight To Eternity released earlier this year. Model Express originally appeared as a self-released edition of 100 gold cassettes. The arch, filmic drama of Cindy Lee's songwriting -- realized with keyboards, guitars, aching voice and collaged, lo-fi production -- traverses a wide range of emotional and sonic terrain. The red velvet psych-pop of 'What Can I Do' gives way to the fluid 'Diamond Ring' like radio bursts from space. Model Express finds Flegel at both their most experimental and immediately melodic, and this first-time vinyl release recognizes the collected tracks as a pillar in the Cindy Lee catalogue. Cindy Lee (who uses the gender neutral pronoun they) is a drag persona drawing on suburban closet queens and mid-century divas. In keeping with Flegel's interest in the fault lines of identity, gender expression, performance and media, Model Express delivers an intense and diverse set of unforgettable songs."

GRACIOUS!	Once On A Windy Day: The Recordings 1970-1971	3CD/1DVD	ESOTERIC ANTENNA	ECRUS 4005CD
$47.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/31/2025 NTSC format, Region 0. "Featuring Paul 'Sandy' Davis (lead vocals, 12-string guitar), Alan Cowderoy (lead guitar, vocals), Martin Kitcat (Mellotron, organ, piano, vocals), Tim Wheatley (bass, vocals) and Robert Lipson (drums), the band first came to prominence in 1968 when they supported The Who on tour. They recorded a single for Polydor Records before a support slot for King Crimson in 1969 led to them purchasing a mellotron and changing style. In 1970 their debut self-titled album appeared on the Vertigo label and the band were greeted with critical praise. This in turn led to Gracious! performing a set at the 1970 Isle of Wight Festival (joining a bill that featured Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Who, Family, ELP, The Moody Blues and many more). Their set was recorded and filmed but was to remain unreleased. In early 1971 the band recorded their second album at Olympic Studios. Originally entitled Supernova and perhaps their finest work, the band was dropped by Vertigo prior to its release. The recordings eventually received a belated release on Philips Records under the title This is Gracious! later in 1971. The Recordings 1970-1971 gathers together both albums and also includes a CD of the band's 1970 Isle of Wight Festival set and a multi-region DVD featuring the film of their Isle of Wight performance. The set also includes a lavishly illustrated booklet with many unseen photographs and a new essay with band interviews by Mike Barnes."

RESIDENTS, THE	Leftovers (1970-1988)	2CD	CRYPTIC CORPORATION	NRT 025CD
$24.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/31/2025 "Formed in the early 1970s, The Residents have now been charting a unique path through the musical landscape for over half a century now. From far-out, experimental recordings to highly conceptual, innovative multi-platform projects, the band refuses to stand still, and continues to move in several different directions at once. But you already knew that. Combining new RDX mixes produced by The Residents using their original multitrack tapes under lockdown conditions during 2020, and a number of tapes placed by Hardy Fox in a part of the band's storage complex re-discovered in 2023, Leftovers brings together the Leftovers Again?! Record Store Day trilogy, alongside extra leftovers which The Residents couldn't fit onto those vinyl only releases. Featuring alternate versions and lost tracks from The Residents' 'classic' 1970s period, the lost Man album music, Mole Trilogy outtakes, alternate versions of 'God In 3 Persons' material and even evidence of a brief 'jazz phase' Leftovers is a treasure trove for fans of this remarkable, chameleonic band at their best preserved for future generations."

CV VISION	Release The Beast	LP	BUREAU B	BB 483LP
$26.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/24/2025 LP version. CV Vision returns with the follow-up to his last opus Im Tal der Stutzer and delivers his sixth studio album Release The Beast -- where he finds the sweet spot between psych rock, Detroit techno, fried synths, black metal and library music. Teaming up again with Swedish drummer Uno Bruniusson, CV Vision switched up the last production approach and opted for a return to previous studio methodologies. "I wanted to get a rougher sound on this record," he says. "I dug out my two broken reel-to-reel tape machines, and patched them together, like Frankenstein. That's what gels everything really -- there's different musical styles, but it's the tape machine that brings it all together, sound-wise." Release The Beast does indeed fly off in several directions over the course of fourteen tracks, and gives listeners an insight into the full spectrum of the CV Vision musical universe. Fuzzed-out backbeats and psych progressions establish the opening tracks, as the sweet harmonies of "RTB" and "The Rhythm" are offset by raw magnetic hiss. "Dungeon Drums I, II, III" draws on acid and early Detroit techno experiments, tapping into the cosmic elements of the Motor City's beatdown grooves (and even mediaeval black metal melodies) to bring out a krautrock twist. The second half of Release The Beast takes another turn with instrumental jams, like "Nikita's Tune" and "It's K-Jazz," that nod towards the psychedelic soul of David Axelrod and Rotary Connection, and the trippy DIY experiments of L.G. Mair, Jr. Closing out the album, CV Vision lays down the bluesy stomper "Town Talk" and distorted motorik workout "The Jam" next to the folky incantation of "Brickwall Symphony" and stacked layers of heavy guitars on "Go Your Way." While Release The Beast is a varied tapestry of sounds and styles, there's a common thread running through it all. The cover art depicts the boarded-up entrance of a Berlin stairwell, surrounded by the burnt-out debris of a long-forgotten party.

MAJOR STARS	More Colors Of Sound	LP	DRAG CITY	DC 963LP
$23.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/24/2025 "Out of the roiling miasma of timeless time comes a long-promised delivery from one of the constants of this era: Major Stars, and their new LP, More Colors of Sound. Fueled by overdriven guitars and gut-punching rhythm, these veteran rockers are stalwart in their delivery of trippy, psyched-out extremes. Over the 27 years since The Rock Revival (their Twisted Village debut), they can be counted on to come back around every three or four years or so, with something heavy picked up on their journey. This time, it's been since 2019's Roots of Confusion Seeds of Joy -- but what's a few years in the larger scheme of things? It's been since the late '90s that Major Stars have been transmitting their signal. But even eternity wasn't built in such an arc of time: Wayne Rogers and Kate Biggar have been crossing necks dating back to the '80s, with Crystallized Movements' screaming psychpunk hybrids. Tom Leonard, Major Stars' current third axeman, has been in the mix almost as long: Luxurious Bags' amorphous low-fi was released on Twisted Village too, and Kate and Wayne and him all played together in Vermonster. The More Colors of Sound lineup is as-was for Roots of Confusion Seeds of Joy: Kate, Tom, Wayne, Dave Dougan on bass, Casey Keenan on drums and Noell Dorsey singing lead. More Colors of Sound had been earmarked as a title for nearly twenty years when they started work on the album that would finally bear its name. For the first ten Major Stars releases, Wayne wrote everything, but due to the way things were in 2020 and 2021, Tom and Noell wrote a bunch of things together, along with Wayne's stuff. By the time they got to Gloucester's Bang-A Song Studios, there was enough music for a double LP. As ever, the crush of the three guitars as they riff with the rhythm defines Major Stars' sound. The work of two writing camps has produced a song-centric focus on More Colors of Sound -- one, of course, shot through with distorted tones, fevered neck-wringing solos and several extended jammers -- but the production overall has a cleaner sound than its predecessor. On More Colors of Sound, Major Stars find new hues inside the incendiary approach that's launched them so ecstatically since early times; another jar of infinity captured with a quality all its own -- and it's all in the grooves!"

KANE, NERO	For The Love, The Death And The Poetry (White Vinyl)	LP	SUBSOUND RECORDS	SSR 163LTD
$34.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/24/2025 LP version. Gatefold white vinyl. For the Love, the Death and the Poetry is the fourth studio album by songwriter, singer, and guitarist Nero Kane. A folk liturgy that oscillates between yearnings for eternal love, fascination with death, and spectral poetry. Psychomagic mysticism, stripped-down blues, apocalyptic drones, guitar arpeggios, twilight ballads, shamanic rites, solemn organ, and string notes traverse the dark expanses of skeletal American deserts in an extended and obsessive ritual. Echoes of a romantic past evoke the eternal power of art and love in contrast to the ephemeral vanity of existence, in a journey of redemption through the blinding and dark lands of good and evil. Kane's dark folk-tinged vocals and guitars are accompanied by the mellotron and the voice of long-time collaborator and multi-talented artist Samantha Stella, creating a unique and personal style defined as cathartic, desert-like, disturbing, ritualistic, and psychedelic. References to the apocalyptic folk of Michael Gira/Jarboe/Swans, the gospel spirituality of Nick Cave, the perdition of Johnny Cash, the tragic poems of Nico -- evoked in Stella's icy spoken word, as highlighted by critics -- the visionary nature of Jodorowsky and the sick sound of Italian occult psychedelia, the latter being an element that characterizes.

Psychomagic mysticism, stripped-down blues, apocalyptic drones, guitar arpeggios, twilight ballads, shamanic rites, solemn organ, and string notes traverse the dark expanses of skeletal American deserts in an extended and obsessive ritual. Echoes of a romantic past evoke the eternal power of art and love in contrast to the ephemeral vanity of existence, in a journey of redemption through the blinding and dark lands of good and evil. Kane's dark folk-tinged vocals and guitars are accompanied by the mellotron and the voice of long-time collaborator and multi-talented artist Samantha Stella, creating a unique and personal style defined as cathartic, desert-like, disturbing, ritualistic, and psychedelic. References to the apocalyptic folk of Michael Gira/Jarboe/Swans, the gospel spirituality of Nick Cave, the perdition of Johnny Cash, the tragic poems of Nico -- evoked in Stella's icy spoken word, as highlighted by critics -- the visionary nature of Jodorowsky and the sick sound of Italian occult psychedelia, the latter being an element that characterizes. Also available on black (SSR 163LP) and white color vinyl (SSR 163LTD).

The San Diego Union named it the eighth best album of the 1980s. The album marked a shift in their sound as the band incorporated more diverse influences, blending rock, rockabilly, blues, and country elements. While still maintaining the energetic roots rock style they were known for, Non Fiction also explored a more polished and mature production compared to their earlier albums. The album stands out for its mix of upbeat tracks with thoughtful lyrics and a more reflective tone than their earlier, more raw recordings. The album is praised for its strong songwriting, and although it didn't achieve major commercial success, it remains a beloved album among fans."

CV VISION	Release The Beast	CD	BUREAU B	BB 483CD
$16.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 10/24/2025 CV Vision returns with the follow-up to his last opus Im Tal der Stutzer and delivers his sixth studio album Release The Beast -- where he finds the sweet spot between psych rock, Detroit techno, fried synths, black metal and library music. Teaming up again with Swedish drummer Uno Bruniusson, CV Vision switched up the last production approach and opted for a return to previous studio methodologies. "I wanted to get a rougher sound on this record," he says. "I dug out my two broken reel-to-reel tape machines, and patched them together, like Frankenstein. That's what gels everything really -- there's different musical styles, but it's the tape machine that brings it all together, sound-wise." Release The Beast does indeed fly off in several directions over the course of fourteen tracks, and gives listeners an insight into the full spectrum of the CV Vision musical universe. Fuzzed-out backbeats and psych progressions establish the opening tracks, as the sweet harmonies of "RTB" and "The Rhythm" are offset by raw magnetic hiss. "Dungeon Drums I, II, III" draws on acid and early Detroit techno experiments, tapping into the cosmic elements of the Motor City's beatdown grooves (and even mediaeval black metal melodies) to bring out a krautrock twist. The second half of Release The Beast takes another turn with instrumental jams, like "Nikita's Tune" and "It's K-Jazz," that nod towards the psychedelic soul of David Axelrod and Rotary Connection, and the trippy DIY experiments of L.G. Mair, Jr. Closing out the album, CV Vision lays down the bluesy stomper "Town Talk" and distorted motorik workout "The Jam" next to the folky incantation of "Brickwall Symphony" and stacked layers of heavy guitars on "Go Your Way." While Release The Beast is a varied tapestry of sounds and styles, there's a common thread running through it all. The cover art depicts the boarded-up entrance of a Berlin stairwell, surrounded by the burnt-out debris of a long-forgotten party.
