Of Montreal

Paralytic Stalks

Quirky, funky indie pop outfit Of Montreal offer their 11th full-length with Paralytic Stalks, finding band brainchild Kevin Barnes at his most personal since 2007 release Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?

Recorded in Athens, Georgia at Barnes’ home studio with engineer Drew Vanderberg (Deerhunter, Best Coast) and a crew of session musicians (a first in Of Montreal history), Barnes lays bare his emotions to ponder revenge, self-loathing, and relationship turmoil through an eclectic ‘60s pop, revivalist prog, and pseudo country-tinged lens.

Atlas Sound

Parallax

The third long player from Atlas Sound, the ever expansive solo project from Bradford Cox of Deerhunter.

Atlas Sound is not a “side-project,” but rather a fully fleshed musical landscape chock-full of pop chronicles culled from sci-fi fever dreams and mid century rock .

This is perhaps Cox’s best work to date, juxtaposing his modern, sometimes avant, songwriting sensibilities against a backdrop of ambient loneliness and a quiet feeling of desperation.

Los Campesinos

Hello Sadness

Hello Sadness’ 10 tracks cover what we are coming to recognize as core Los Campesinosconcerns - love, loss, heartbreak, football (always football). But this is a record that’s wiser and more focused than its predecessors, confident in its abilities and clear in its aims.

Limited CD with DVD or LP with download.

Girls

Record 3: Father, Son, Holy Ghost

Sophomore album from the critically acclaimed Indie band.

More spontaneous and stripped-down than either their self-made debut or their lush EP, Father, Son, Holy Ghost is a gorgeous, largely minor-key record, enlivened by flashes of innocent pop and given depth by its wealth of influences and willingness to face sadness.

Mogwai

Earth Division

4- brand new tracks, highlighting a creative departure from the band’s trademark cinematic mantra of pulverizing, scorched guitar riffage, into a more recontextualised domain of hazy electronic distortion, accompanied by spiky wafts of violins, violas, cellos and double bass and jagged keys.

Mister Heavenly

Out Of Love

Mister Heavenly is the indie supergroup featuring Man Man’s Honus Honus, Islands’ Nick Thorburn, Modest Mouse’s Joe Plummer.

The Vaccines

What Did You Expect From

Debut from the hotly-tipped British Indie outfit.

The unprecedented reaction and interest surrounding the band has been remarkable with some media comparing the organic hype to the likes of The Strokes.

What Did You Expect From The Vaccines? was recorded in a couple of weeks during the autumn of 2010.
