Customer Highlight — Barrence Whitfield & The Savages

Available exclusively from Shake-It Records!

The core Savages lineup of Whitfield/Greenberg/Lenker have reunited for a full-bore rhythm & blues fueled, rock n’ roll stomp. Savage Kings returns to the Savages’ heyday of their debut & Dig Yourself sound of an all-nite party blowout that you will pay severly for the next morning…. and isn’t that the way it should be??? Rave-up covers mixed with originals combine to serve up the return of the classic lineup that may very well out deliver the goods than those initial LPs… which says alot. This limited edition LP includes a download code.

Customer Highlight — The Clippers

An Evening With…7″ is the first music ever recorded by The Clippers. Released originally on a 3″ CD and now on a 7 inch record. Featuring 5 amazing tracks that should be required summer listening. The first pressing of this record is limited to 500 7 inches and split between 100 Orange/Yellow Split colored vinyl, 125 White, and 275 Green/Black records. The records are going extremely fast (much like the summer itself), so hit up Top Shelf Records to grab one of these limited edition records before they are gone!

Ripped straight from the pages of David Blaine’s secret magic book, comes the music stylings of The Clippers. Born in September twenty ten, this two piece outfit came together and began cheers-ing their way through Allston, MA. Their high energy pop rock has brought sophistication and sexual feeling back to basement shows and venues everywhere.

Customer Highlight — You & I

Thanks to How Soon Is Now Records, You & I’s 1998 gem Saturday’s Cab Ride Home (originally released by Spiritfall Records) is available on wax again, this time with a printed jacket, updated insert, and colored vinyl! If you didn’t grab a copy at RTF Fest last week, you still have [limited] time to grab a copy while they last. Hit up How Soon Is Now Records!

Customer Highlight — Moon High

If you missed your chance to grab a copy of the brand new Moon High album Six Suns at the release party on July 16, then we highly recommend that you hit up your local indie retailer or the band directly to grab a copy now!

You can also catch the band live at Skully’s in Columbus, Ohio on August 5!

Moon High began in 2007 as a home recording project between two like-minded Ohio musicians. Their auspicious self-titled debut was released the following year and prompted the duo to recruit additional members to adapt their multi-layered sounds on stage. After a couple years of member changes, ongoing praise, and honing their live performance, Moon High has evolved into a tight-knit quartet determined to play their own brand of melodious folk tunes.

Six Suns is bookended with the band’s more elegant instrumental pieces and dances between up tempo, country-tinged pop songs, dreamy laments, and moments of near rock-and-roll. In the years since their debut release, Moon High has emerged sounding more confident and at home in their songcraft; ‘Six Suns’ shows the band coming into it’s own, reveling in what’s been uncovered along the way.

Hit up the band up here.

Customer Highlight — The Sunshine Factory

The Sunshine Factory exists on a foundation of juxtapositions. Here is a band from the Gulf Coast of the U.S. channeling the spirits of late ’80s/early’90s U.K. Thames Valley subversion – two seemingly disparate environments. Band founder Ian Taylor, worked solo until 2010 then added vocalist/bassist Sally Robertson. Ian sought inspiration from a variety of sources – including the engrossing and mystical Byzantine chant music he enjoyed with his Eastern Orthodox upbringing. Ian was first drawn to the energy of punk and metal as a young teen. As he grew into his late teens, Ian began looking for something more. He discovered that same intensity and more in shoegaze and psychedelic music and as they say, the rest is history!

While true to the cannon of shoegaze and psychedelia, The Sunshine Factory infuses the foundational aspects of these genres with diffuse elements from the mellotron-laden paisley underground to ancient chants. The Sunshine Factory weaves these mosaic tapestries as they continue their serendipitous journey of juxtaposition. The music is resplendent with whammified sonic assaults, electronic flourishes, and classic psychedelic instrumentation. The Sunshine Factory is at the same time fulfilling the dreams of shoegazers past and blazing new trails into the future. They are playing their part in a wonderful and ever expanding movement of sight and sound.

Available now on vinyl directly from the band is the latest Sunshine Factory album — Sugar.

Customer Highlight — Mercy Academy

Mercy Academy started with the inception of Lorna-Mae Ward and Christofer Lincoln. Christofer Lincoln, reprising his role as singer/songwriter after Lincoln and the Lost Prayers, teamed up with vocalist Lorna-Mae Ward to create the new Tails LP; produced by Troy Williams at Velvet Audio. Also rounding out the outfit is accomplished guitarist Phil Najjar, and bassist John Sloan. The songs and lyrics, written by Christofer, are dark, moody, almost fairytale like interpretations of folk and country leanings. Hence the album title. Proudly pressed here at GGR, the record will be available from the band in the next few days….

Customer Highlight — Caboladies

Recorded from 2009-2011, during which time Caboladies members Eric Lanham and Chris Bush relocated from Kentucky to Chicago, Renewable Destination constitutes the duo’s most refined and focused work to date. Both as a collaborative unit and under solo monikers Carl Calm and Flower Man, Lanham and Bush have produced a wealth of limited-run releases in recent years on labels such as Arbor, Dekorder, Digitalis, and on their own Smooth Tapes imprint — each of which document their uniquely fractured sonic sensibilities. Perhaps what amazes fans most about the pair’s work is the sheer diversity of their palettes.

This extremely limited edition LP is now available from Students of Decay.

Customer Highlight — Jannick Schou

The Act of Shimmering encompasses the act of leaving conscious thought behind. It’s accepting what lies beyond the corporeal, transcending the physical; the soul is aware and the body, eyes, skin are distant empty casings. A clamorous, chaotic cacophony surrounds a beatific center. An endless assault of guitar, of noise that glistens, a poignant rigor. Jannick Schou, proprietor of tape loop drone, places himself within the tunnel of din to produce this profound work: an ethereal dream using nightmarish parts and images. Black and grays generate vibrant innards. Brightness is unearthed within the fetid mass and these six tracks immerse the listener into a raging sea to find a gentle undertow. Furious outbursts emerge from simple, slow shivers. Tremors of noise gather, reaching an elongated crescendo, becoming transformative, and shattering what form or structure was designed to contain such an outpouring of sound.

This pressing is limited to 300 copies, and the first 100 copies are available on transparent blue vinyl — exclusive to orders made direct from Experimedia.net.

Customer Highlight — In One Wind

In what seem like meager beginnings, In One Wind has blossomed from a one man act into a full fledged six piece ensemble, with a sound and reputation all their own. The brainchild of guitarist/vocalist Angelo Spagnolo, In One Wind also features vocalists Mallory Glaser and Lily Claire Nussbaum, bassist Rob Lundberg, percussionist Max Jaffe and multi-reedist Steven Lugerner.

Though steeped in the tradition of folk music, In One Wind incorporates a wide range of influences from jazz to country, even stretching effortlessly into the world of improvised music and the avant-garde. The ability to start a show with soft guitar strums and whispered vocals while seamlessly breaking into odd-metered grooves and lush three part harmonies enraptures their audiences. In One Wind is truly an idiosyncratic ensemble, an ensemble that appropriately represents their home – Brooklyn, NY – where they have quickly established a solid footing in the greater New York music scene.

Stay tuned to inonewind.com to see how you can grab a copy of their latest LP, How Bright A Shadow.
