BILLY BRAGG Mr. Love Justice LP
*** Brand new! It's brand new for you!

DAEDELUS Love To Make Music To 2xLP / CD
*** "The few reports which have filtered out say that people go mad as they listen to the strange, alien sounds the young composer DAEDELUS describes as 'music' -- that they scream, laugh, pull off their clothes, have sex with each other and themselves, fall into reveries, and shout of 'the hills, the beautiful hills.'"

DETROIT COBRAS Original Recordings LP / CD
*** "Collects for the VERY FIRST TIME these early DETROIT COBRAS rare, unreleased and singles recordings! Compiles their very first 3 7" singles plus NINE previously unreleased studio tracks from the same era!"

FLYING LOTUS Los Angeles LP
*** NOW ON VINYL!

HERCULES & LOVE AFFAIR Classique #2 12"
*** "Classique #2, is a kinetic explosion of soulful, anthemic and euphoric electro disco, truly original yet with subtle nods to its glittering past -- where beautiful, bruising harmonies and loose-limbed mechanic rhythms collide to create a utopian and hedonistic dance floor paradise."

INVISIBLE CONGA PEOPLE Weird Pains / Cable Dazed 12"
*** "Psychedelic slow pulse boogie from Justin Simon (guitar, other) and Eric Tsai (synths, other). Eric makes some of the band's equipment himself. Kraut + house."

ITAL TEK Cyclical 2xLP
*** "Cyclical is the debut full-length from iTAL tEK, a.k.a. Alan Myson of Brighton. After massive 12-inch releases on Planet Mu and SQR last year, the man returns with an album's worth of moody yet beautiful dubstep with swooning chords underpinned by a techy undercarriage."

KID SISTER Remixes 12"
*** "Kid Sis is back with this exclusive vinyl-only remix EP on Fool's Gold! On the A-side, "Control" is worked over by JFK of MSTRKRFT and new Fool's Gold signees (and budding electro superstars) LA Riots. Simian Mobile Disco get spacey on "Pro Nails," flipping it into a slow rolling, dubstep-inspired instrumental workout, while Chicago juke hero DJ Gant-Man provides a jacking mainstream club mix."

MY BLOODY VALENTINE Isn't Anything LP
MY BLOODY VALENTINE Loveless LP
*** BACK IN STOCK!

ODD NOSDAM Pretty Swell Explode 2xLP
*** NOW ON VINYL!

OM Live At Jerusalem LP
*** "In December of 2007 the mighty duo that is OM made a pilgrimage to Israel to play for its people. "Flight of the Eagle" and "Bhimas' Theme" were captured and flown back to the United States where the vinyl lacquers were made by Bob Weston. Southern Lord released this 180 gram black vinyl transcendental offering. Limited to 3,000."

PLASTIQUE DE REVE Lost In The City 12"
*** "Touching base with his Chi-House and Acid roots on the A-side, serving a true gem of deep Acid-House with 'Lost in the City.' When the vocals and strings kick in, it transcends instant floor filler to become a classic pop song. 'Resist,' on the B-side, toys with ghetto-tech cliches, delivering a steamroller-like groove at 138 BPM -- nonstop fireworks of galloping bass, brass samples, twisted acid, and euphoric vocal tracks."

JAY REATARD Singles 06-07 2xLP / CD
*** "After recording his debut solo LP, 2006's Blood Visions, Reatard released a slew of singles and EPs on labels across the globe; all were pressed in limited quantities and now fetch serious coin on eBay. In The Red is proud to release Singles 06-07-- a collection of said tracks."

VENETIAN SNARES Detrimentalist 2xLP / CD
*** "The latest studio album revisits jungle when it was more about energy and experimentation than a strict formula. The days before they took out all the good bits between the kicks and the snares! These beats shoot thick and sticky! Bass that makes your colon drop like you grew a new nut out your ass! Over 20 people were harmed in the creation of this record!"

VENETIAN SNARES Miss Balaton 12"
*** "It has strings, then it has acid, then it has drums. It is over nine minutes long with various melodic sections. It starts in E minor then moves to B minor. You'll like it! The B-side is Aaron Funk's political comment on the state of smoking (or not) in the UK."

WOODEN SHJIPS Vol. 1 LP / CD
*** "The Wooden Shjips' earliest material was released on vinyl, pressed in small quantities that were either free or hard to come by and are now hopelessly out of print. Vol. 1 collects all the tracks from the free 10-inch, the Dance, California 7-inch, and the SOL 7-inch."
