Thanks for choosing an independent business!! artist title label		Beach House Teen Dream (Sub Pop) CD - $14 LP - $20   Recorded in upstate New York, in a converted church called Dreamland with producer/engineer Chris Coady (who has worked with TV on the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Blonde Redhead, and a bunch of others) Teen Dream is the third album from the Baltimore-based duo Beach House, and their Sub Pop debut. The new album gives voice to a full universe of unbridled imagination, and the manifestation of Teen Dream has been a welcomed and all-consuming obsession for Beach House the past nine to twelve months. LP and CD version come with a companion DVD featuring a video for each song on the album, each by a different director! LP comes with digital download.   Broken Bells High Road (Columbia) 7in - $5   James Mercer from The Shins & Danger Mouse join forces to become Broken Bells. This cut from Broken Bells is titled "High Road", which is off of their self-titled LP. The album will be released March, 9th 2010. With exclusive B-side "An Easy Life" an Indie exclusive Non album track.   Fatigo Diego ((local)) CD - $10   Local stalwarts Fatigo come out of hiding with their sophomore release Diego a poppy, playful and strong comeback. Features tons of guest spots from your favorite local musicians. On sale exclusively at Stinkweeds!   Final Fantasy Heartland (Domino) CD - $14 2LP - $20   Heartland exists. The third Final Fantasy full-length and the first for Domino, it is the product of nine months work in four countries. Heartland is a fully orchestral record, designed to exist simultaneously as an album, a 45-minute piece of orchestral music and a set of songs for looped violin and voice.   Flogging Molly Live At The Greek Theatre (Side One Dummy) 2CD+DVD - $15   This three-disc set captures Flogging Molly’s epic performance at the Greek Theatre on September 12, 2009, featuring over 90 minutes of music spanning the band’s entire catalog, from Swagger to Float.   Frightened Rabbit Winter Of Mixed Drinks (Fat Cat) Pre-order only CD - $13 LP - $17   Customers who pre-order will be emailed a code from the label giving access to stream the entire album! Also, pre-order the album and receive a limited Frightened Rabbit print for free (while supplies last)!   Massive Attack Heligoland (Virgin) CD - $15   Yes, you read right, Massive Attack is back. Fifth studio album from legendary trip-hop duo and the first new studio album since 2003's 100th Window features an all-star cast of guest vocals from Damon Albarn, Hope Sandoval, Martina Topley-Bird, Guy Garvey and Tunde Adebimpe.   Newsom, Joanna Have One On Me (Drag City) 3CD - $19 3LP - $27   The follow-up to Y's, three years in the making comes an exquisite work of art, 3CDs and 3LPs! 125 minutes-worth of songs in deluxe packaging. Through the course of the 18 songs, Joanna visits ditties, weepies, court dances, rump-bumpers, epics and moments of Panavision fantasia upon us.   Phantogram Eyelid Movies (Barsuk) CD - $8 LP - $18   Phantogram's music sounds like it's made by a band from the city. Electronic loops, hip-hop beats, shoegaze, soul, and pop each find its way into their songs. Unexpectedly, the band doesn't live and work in a major urban center, but rather calls the town of Saratoga Springs, NY home. Despite the cultural influence of local Skidmore College (where fellow beat-experimenters Ratatat formed) Saratoga isn't exactly teeming with fans of J. Dilla, My Bloody Valentine or Serge Gainsbourg. Using various samplers, tapes, records, synths, drums, and both percussive and stringed instruments, Josh Carter and Sarah Barthel, the duo that make up Phantogram, have allowed their natural surroundings and metropolitan influences to mix, resulting in brilliant, unusual recordings that are beautiful yet hard, dreamlike yet substantial, danceable yet smart.   Rogue Wave Permalight (Brushfire) CD - $14   A punchy, deceptively effervescent set of multi-instrumental pop tunes. Rogue Wave has a reputation for crafting classic, inward-looking pop songs highlighted with psychedelic guitars, pastoral sound effects and intricate rhythms. On Permalight, however, Rogue Wave steps away from expectations with synthesizers that simultaneously sound brittle and blissful.   Ruby Suns Fight Softly (Sub Pop) CD - $14 LP - $16   Head-spinning combo of big-picture vision and sumptuous detail veers from the path set by 2008's spectacular Sea Lion. Thematically, it's not as wide-eyed or lighthearted, picking apart the relationships faced as we pass through the world -- with our surroundings, each other, and ourselves. Sonically it remains as beat-centric though these beats are deliciously artificial -- stretched and compacted and distorted beyond recognition.   Veirs, Laura July Flame (Raven Marching Band) CD - $14   Laura Veirs' seventh album July Flame, which Colin Meloy calls 'the best album of 2010,' explores the emotion of mid-summer. Drenched in wood smoke, sunlight, pollinators, and pastoral dales, her lyrics explore the dichotomy between one's desire for permanence and the realization that such things rarely exist.   Yeasayer Odd Blood (Secretly Canadian) CD - $12 LP - $13   Since the release of their critically acclaimed 2007 debut All Hour Cymbals, Yeasayer has been around the world and back again. While their first record was conceived in total artistic isolation, constant touring forced Yeasayer to finally engage with their contemporaries. At times Yeasayer sound as if they would be at home playing live in scene from Blade Runner or inside one of Oscar Neimeyer's concrete modernist temples from the 1960s. Yeasayer have plunged into the craft of pop music, and the exercise has paid off.   Enter your email address to join our weekly mailing list & receive updates on new releases and special products!
