Thanks to Fat Beats for enlisting GGR to press Zo!‘s newest double-LP, SunStorm.

We are pumped to announce our very first pressing for the Luaka Bop label – Delicate Steve‘s Wondervisions LP.
Northern New Jersey’s Delicate Steve is the project of (Delicate) Steve Marion, guitarist, composer, and producer. Without words, Delicate Steve’s songs are incredibly lyrical- each song a concise rock explosion driven by melody. Steve’s guitar playing and tones have made a quiet revolution within New York’s independent scene with members of Yeasayer, Dirty Projectors, TV on the Radio, Javelin, frequently in the audience.
You can pre-order your vinyl copy now (and get a free 7″ while supplies last), or grab one at independent record stores across the country on 01.25.10!
Marking a clandestine arrival out of, seemingly, nowhere, Black Swan emerges from the shadowy billows of smoke to immerse listeners in a lucid, cavernous dream, tracing silhouettes in the darkness with drowning ambience and orchestrated drones that screech and howl intermittently amongst the disorienting magnetic tape disturbances. Black Swan operates under a guise of far-away sounds traveling through murky waters, drowning the listener in its heavy-handed layers of ghostly resonance.
You can purchase a copy of In 8 Movements on vinyl+download from our good friends at Experimedia.
Thank you to Talking Helps Records for a second GGR pressing — this time, The Boyish Charms‘ Infinity in its Infancy.

We are proud to say that this is now our second Forecast LP pressing! This self-titled LP comes courtesy of our friends at Youth Conspiracy Records.
The Forecast’s third full-length is self-titled for a reason: It is the band’s best work to date, completely defining their sound and purpose. The album fuses together the best parts of mid-’90s emo, turn of the century post-hardcore and elements of both timeless country and pop.
This special pressing is comprised of eight different extremely limited runs of different color wax —
/122 Cherry 7-Up
/83 Suicide
/26 Cream Soda
/24 Mountain Dew
/14 Diet Cherry 7-Up
/3 Mello Yello
/2 Orange Fanta
/1 Vanilla Milkshake With A Cherry On Top.
You can grab a copy of these color records (while supplies last) from Youth Conspiracy.
Emulating the same punk rock DIY attitude and sloppy lo-fi records that helped shaped their youth, New Haven’s the Estrogen Highs crank out catchy garage rock. After a series of killer singles and full lengths on Telephone Explosion, Deadbeat, Never Heard of It and the tastily titled Milk n’ Herpes Records, Stefan, Mark, Wes, and Ross deliver their special dose of jangley controlled chaos to the Cycles EP for Safety Meeting. Taking nods from such bands as the Wipers, the Nuggets, and the Gories, they bring a “less is more” aesthetic to their song writing, hammering out infectious riffs with intense sloppy precision. Their music is honest, loud, and completely intoxicating, burrowing into the brain like a parasite.
This 300 copy limited edition LP includes a copy of the CD and hand-screen printed jackets. You can grab a copy from Safety Meeting Records, or at one of the band’s shows.
