Thanks for choosing an independent business!! artist title label		Atlas Sound Parallax (4AD) CD - $14 LP - $19   Third long player from the ever-expansive solo project from Bradford Cox of Deerhunter. Atlas Sound is not a "side-project," but rather a fully fleshed musical landscape chock-full of pop chronicles culled from sci-fi fever dreams and mid century rock.   Calexico Selections From Road Atlas 1998-2011 (Quarterstick) CD - $14   16 tracks from the Road Atlas 1998-2011 vinyl box set, hand picked by the band, offering a well rounded selection of songs spanning the 14 year history of tour-only CDs.   Cohen, Leonard Old Ideas (Columbia) CD -$13 LP - $25   Old Ideas poetically addresses some of the most profound questions of human existence including love, sexuality, loss and death. Many of the tracks featured on Old Ideas have been worked on for years, it was produced with Patrick Leonard, Anjani Thomas, Ed Sanders, and Dino Soldo. For a man who only "aspired to be a minor poet" early in his career, Cohen evolved as one of the most important and influential artists of our time. He is a master songwriter, musician, poet, novelist, and visual artists whose stunning body fo work has touch the lives of millions with a career spanning six decades.   First Aid Kit Lion's Roar (Wichita) CD - $14 LP - $19   2012 album sees the Swedish sisters duo exploring a bigger sound and more instrumentation than on their debut album The Big Black and the Blue, but maintains the signature storytelling and harmonies they have become renowned for.   Fun We Are Young (Fueled By Ramen) 7" - $10   2 song single, just ahead of their upcoming full-length. Features the tracks "We Are Young (feat. Janelle Monae) and "One Foot". Picture disc. This is limited to 500!!!!!!   Gibson, Laura La Grande (Barsuk) CD - $14   La Grande (pronounced in the way of the American West, without any hint of French inflection -- ''luh grand'') is a town just east of the Wallowa Valley in northeastern Oregon where native Oregonian Laura Gibson found inspiration while writing the songs that would become her new album.   Guided By Voices Let's Go Eat The Factory (GBV inc) CD - $14 LP $16   After a fifteen-year hiatus, the “classic lineup” of Guided By Voices (Robert Pollard, Tobin Sprout, Mitch Mitchell, Greg Demos and Kevin Fennell) finishes off its year-long reunion tour by releasing an album of 21 new songs, deliberately choosing to return to what bandleader Pollard calls the “semi-collegial” approach of iconic GBV albums like Bee Thousand and Alien Lanes. Let’s Go Eat the Factory is much more than a mere return, however: sprawling, variegated, heavy, melodic, and yet still recognizably and coherently Guided By Voices in both its literal and mythic senses.   Nada Surf The Stars Are Indifferent To Astronomy (Barsuk) CD - $14 LP - $20   bassist Daniel Lorca, and drummer Ira Elliot are in love with the way rock music can transport you to a new and wonderful place in a beguiling rush of beats, chords, hooks and words. And they do it 10 times over on their brilliant sixth album, The Stars Are Indifferent to Astronomy. Before, Nada Surf albums simply took on the character of the songs that the band came up with at the time. This one was different--there was a plan. "We've always played faster and a little harder live," Caws says, "but we'd play so carefully in the studio. So with this album, we made a conscious decision to preserve what it felt like in the practice room, when you play with that new-song energy.   Odonis Odonis Hollandaze (Fat Cat) CD - $11   The debut onslaught from Toronto-based Odonis Odonis - a new project from former Ten Kens member Dean Tzenos - Hollandaze is a grimy, gum-splattered ménage of surf-gaze, punk and lo-fi, cut from twanging reverb & fuzz heavy guitars, thick, driving bass-and-drum machines and overdriven Hammond organ. A collection of killer, hook-driven tunes that hark back to the classic ‘80s sounds of The Jesus & Mary Chain, Pixies, Big Black and The Cure.   Porcelain Raft Strange Weekend (Secretly Canadian) CD - $13 LP - $14   Huge dream-pop, with melodies and synths billowing out in all directions. Remiddi's androgynous vapor of a voice weaves like a ghost between Nick Gilder and The Alessi Brothers, Julee Cruise and Judee Sill. In more contemporary terms, this stands confidently on a high hill between the sounds of M83 and Beach House.   Sigur Ros Inni (XL) CD+DVD - $22 LP+DVD - $33   The definitive Sigur Ros live experience, comprised of a live album and a 75-minute concert film, capturing the last show before their well-documented “indefinite hiatus” at the end of 2008. Recorded over two nights at London's Alexandra Palace.   Enter your email address to join our weekly mailing list & receive updates on new releases and special products!
