BUTTHOLE SURFERS Brown Reason To Live LP

FUNKADELIC Cosmic Slop LP
FUNKADELIC Free Your Mind... And Your Ass Will Follow LP
*** NOW ON VINYL! 4 Men With Beards deliver hefty 180g slabs of classic albums.

HERE COMES A BIG BLACK CLOUD Black Mold 7"
*** "Portland's premier Sci-Fi-Billy quintet. Two tracks fueled with thumpin' bass, poundin' drums, howlin' vocals and spaced-out theremin licks to boot. Endorsed by the Mississippi Records stamp of approval."

KID CONGO & THE PINK MONKEY SPIDERS Dracula Boots LP / CD
*** RECOMMENDED "The premier voodoo guitarist for seminal sexy, swampy bands like GUN CLUB, NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS, and THE CRAMPS returns to the psychedelic jungle with a stripped-down, no-frills set of garage, Chicano rock, juvenile delinquent rumble, fuzzy biker rock, and greasy rump-shakers."

JOHN ROBINSON & MF DOOM Who Is This Man? LP
*** "The prolific emcee JOHN ROBINSON teams up with his former Fondle 'Em label mate for Who Is This Man, produced entirely by the super villain MF DOOM."

ARTHUR RUSSELL Love Is Overtaking Me LP
*** BACK IN STOCK!

WAVVES Wavvves LP
*** "When not watching Cops or drinking 40s in the park, NATHAN DANIEL WILLIAMS blogs on classic rap and records waves and waves of effortlessly great slack / crust / beach / punk compressed onto four-track cassette."

WOODS Songs Of Shame LP / CD
*** "Veering away from the lo-fi guerillas-in-the-mist sound of the past, Woods present both 90-second and ten-minute forays into skeletal psychedelia." Recommended by PITCHFORK.
