Won't take up too much time with preamble here. Lots of great stuff out this week. Thanks to those who pre-ordered upcoming releases--always helpful. Also, if anyone slept on the David Gilmour 10'', sorry. They went fast. We even had someone from Texas order one. Really weird. Don't forget to check out our show schedule below. No new announcements, but take a look if you haven't before. Some great bands coming through. Thanks for your support. Select New Arrivals for 01/23/07 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Arboretum - Rites of Uncovering (Thrill Jockey) ................................................................... Dave Heumann lives and works in Baltimore. He has played with Anomoanon, Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Cass McCombs and Papa M. Arbouretum is the first band for which he is the primary songwriter, guitarist, and singer. Heumann's idea for the band was one whose songs would evoke natural forms and movements as opposed to architectural constructions with rigid forms and linear progressions. Whilst the band's hard-to-find debut was largely an individual process with players working to articulate Heumann's vision, Rites of Uncovering is the work of a group. Clinic - Visitations (Domino) ................................................................... Since exploding into life about 9 years ago, this Liverpool quartet released a brilliant debut, Internal Wrangler in 2000, toured with Radiohead, and appeared at Scott Walker's Meltdown. In 2002, their 2nd album, Walking With Thee earned them a Grammy nomination. Described by NME as "a stunning return to form", this release sees the band work again with Gareth Jones (Interpol, Nick Cave, Depeche Mode). Clinic are distinctive in the way that The Fall, The Residents, or Missy Elliot are distinctive - it's hard to mistake their sonic fingerprint for anyone else's, yet because they keep exploring the outer limits of their thing, they always sound fresh. Rob Crow (Pinback) - Living Well (Temporary Residence) ................................................................... Crow is the front man for Pinback. Between breakneck touring and the release of The Ladies' debut (his collaboration with Zach Hill of Hella), the impossibly prolific Rob had an epiphany: slow down! This coincidentally occurred shortly after the birth of his first child. "Living Well", his third solo record, is intensely personal, documenting his courtship with his wife, their marriage, and the birth of his son. It has the hooks and heart he's famous for, with a refined focus not seen in his other projects. Deerhoof - Friend Opportunity (Kill Rock Stars) ................................................................... There's a symphonic conception at work here, entire worlds within chords, genius hooks that may or may not swing by again, a programmatic, narrative flow that takes us from one place and drops us off in another, like an exhilarating abduction. Just as importantly, you can hear how the band took a little something from each of the bands they'd toured with - Radiohead, The Roots, and Wilco - though they don't sound like any of them. "Friend Opportunity" is a feat of reinvention that could only come from artists willing to rethink everything. Exploding Star Orchestra - We Are All From Somewhere Else (Thrill Jockey) ................................................................... In 2005, cornetist Rob Mazurek (Chicago Underground, Tigersmilk) was approached by the Chicago Cultural Center and the Jazz Institute to put together a group that would represent the more contemporary / avant-garde side of sound in Chicago for a concert in Millennium Park's Frank Gehry-designed concert hall. The album corresponds to a story involving an exploding star, cosmic transformation, a sting ray, the travels of the sting ray, intelligent conversations with electric eels, the destructive power of humans, the death and ascension of sting ray, the transformation of sting ray ghost to flying bird, and the transformation of bird to phoenix to rocket to flying burning matter to a new-born star. The electric eel tanks Mazurek recorded at INPA contain 2 species of eels, Pulsating and Waveform. The sound was recorded in a special tank of 15-20 eels of various sub-species, each with its own tone. The results are fascinating tonal clusters not unlike the sound of violins. Fugiya & Miagi - Transparent Things (Deaf, Dumb & Blind) ................................................................... This Brighton trio of electronic maestros borrow from some of the best Can, Kraftwerk, Air, and even Talking Heads. Doing for 70s Krautrock and motorik what the DFA did for early 80s electro. Danceable kraut pop with head scratching lyrics and droves of cute Brits loving every minute of it. ***Note: This is the same album that came out last year on the U.K.-based Tirk label. It does, however, contain one bonus track. So, if you were one of the hip few that bought it back then...um...sorry...what can we say? That's what you get for being too cool for school. Ghost - In Stormy Nights (Drag City) ................................................................... Japan's finest return with their first album since the mighty Hypnotic Underworld LP a few years back. Ghost have vowed not to return to the United States until President Bush leaves office, which is a cool gesture, if a bit silly. Like I'm sure the 4 Republican Ghost fans in the U.S. are really bummed. Still. Cool LP. Lots of drone and murk on this one, with a 28-minute monster right in the middle. Ask for a poster. The Good, the Bad & the Queen - s/t (Virgin) ................................................................... Debut album from Britpop supergroup The Good, The Bad And The Queen. TGTBTQ is a new album featuring Damon Albarn (Blur/Gorillaz), Paul Simonon (The Clash), Tony Allen (Africa 70/Fela Kuti) and Simon Tong (The Verve). The Good, The Bad and The Queen began life in the Aphrodisia Studios in Nigeria in 2004 and traces a journey from the English music hall tradition, over to West Africa for Afrobeat, zigzagging through the West Indies and its reggae and dub, back to England and London's punk scene, all the while taking in a strand of British beat music from the '50s right through to Britpop. Dredd Foole - Daze on the Mounts (Family Vineyard) ................................................................... During a chunk of the 80s Dredd Foole guided a visceral garage-cum-avant vision with backing band The Din (lined with members of Mission of Burma and Volcano Sons) before stripping down and recording the alarmingly decisive folk-heavy In the Quest of Tense solo full-length in 1993. Since, the Foole has been a beacon for many modern-day electrified folk explorers like Six Organs of Admittance and Charalambides. Originally a limited CDR, Daze on the Mounts is now available for the masses. Echoing between a Tim Buckley-esque bellow, Erika Elder's environmental treatments and the truly 3-D psychedelic production work of Matt Valentine (Tower Recordings, MV & EE) Dredd Foole displays as staggering a song cycle and avant-folk expression as one's ever heard before. The Earlies - The Enemy Chorus (Secretly Canadian) ................................................................... The 11 songs on their second album have their own separate identity, with a diversity of colors and influences putting the Earlies in the company of such contemporaries as Mercury Rev, the Polyphonic Spree, and even, occasionally, Beck. Full of mystery, piano and woodwinds interact with traditional rock instrumentation without ever sounding forced. It also helps that the songs are sung in timbres that eschew dramatic grandstanding. Their electronics hark back to the pioneering days of the pre-Moog '60s rather than the fusionaires that followed a decade later. A hypnotic voyage through a largely aphotic locale with unpredictable bursts of light and sound. Madeline - the Slow Bang CD (Orange Twin) ................................................................... Bloomington ex-pat and favorite Madeline, while still maintaining her beautiful folk style, has also expanded to incorporate new elements: drums, piano, bass, backing vocals, and more complete the serenity of this very enjoyable album. But it is still undoubtedly Madeline's voice that sets her apart from other singer/songwriters. As clear and precise as handbells with just the slightest country twang, its haunting quality is the perfect vehicle for her smart, sensual lyrics. A cross between the Softies, Kimya Dawson, and Carter Family. Menomena - Friend and Foe (Barsuk) ................................................................... This fractured post-punk, post-hip-hop, post-pop album is the much-anticipated follow-up to their debut, "I Am The Fun Blame Monster". Friend and Foe shines Northwest indie songcraft through a Chicago post-rock lens, illuminating the quiet recesses with an unpredictable, experimental light. Equal parts free jazz, Talk Talk, and XTC. Of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer (Polyvinyl) ................................................................... During the last 3 years, of Montreal have been on a tear: releasing 04's Satanic Panic in the Attic and 05's The Sunlandic Twins and spreading their dance party-inducing live shows to the masses. Hissing Fauna is an irresistible and remarkable album, sounding like a logical extension of the erratic indie-disco sounds of The Sunlandic Twins. However, Hissing Fauna is also the most personal of Montreal album to date, with Kevin Barnes pouring tremendous amounts of emotion, heartbreak, frustration and elation into its 12 tracks. It's an unabashedly autobiographical attempt from a songwriter whose early material tended towards characters and story-songs. Barnes continues down the whimsical pop funk path, while changing up its lyrical scope; and Hissing Fauna balances its poppy nature while showcasing brutal and unflinching honesty. Shins - Wincing The Night Away (Sub Pop) ................................................................... Those soaring vocals that sound like the unholiest collision of the Cure and Simon and Garfunkel, the nimble pop hooks that are never overused, those lyrics that are as self-deprecating and razor sharp as they are playful--dude, it's all still here. Musically, there are some new elements, from ragged surf-rock to near hip-hop beats and percolating electronica. Wincing is neither the clever genre recombinant exercise of their 2nd album nor is it the perfect little self-contained universe of their debut. Mercer remains one of the most talented songwriters working in pop today. Wincing confidently bristles with stupendous and smart rock music that deserves to be enjoyed by your kid brother and your folks as much as your dorm-mates. ***For a limited time (i.e. until we run out), get a free Shins 7'' with purchase of the new CD or LP. Contains non-LP B-side*** David Vandervelde - The Moonstation House Band (Secretly Canadian) ................................................................... Way back in '06, this up-and-coming star played here at Landlocked. Were you here? You shoulda been. Bearing an immediate resemblance to Marc Bolan and David Bowie, deeper listening rewards the listener with a much broader musical universe. Self-taught on guitar, drums, bass, piano, synth, and other studio tools, Vandervelde is an adventurous artist, one who embraces classic rock songwriting and whose spirit is just banging at the door to get unleashed. Music to party and make love to is back. VietNam - VietNam (Kemado) ................................................................... VietNam are four good friends who affectionately make up a loosely defined family in the communal comforts of Brooklyn, living together in the same house with an open door headquarters aesthetic. Fusing Spritualized soaked blues with the hypnotic smoke of Lou Reed, VietNam's sonic depths jump from the belly of Roky Erickson to cast a spell and shake your soul. Staking new ambitious ground is no easy feat and VietNam triumph their trippy confrontation with grace. VA - The Bombay Connection: Funk From Bollywood Action Thrillers & Bombshell Baby of Bombay: Bouncin' Nightclub Grooves... CD/LP (Bombay Connection) ................................................................... First two volumes of a proposed six-volume set of rare, funky Bollywood music from the 50s to the late 80s covering Bollywood horror, hippie psychedelics, spy flick suspense music, stomping 1980s Indian disco and more. Wah-wah guitars, congas and funky Moogs blended with tablas, dhols and Indian melody lines. Each comes with a detailed 30-page booklet with lyrics (with English translations) and photos.

And probably like many prog-rock bands, they met in video production class. They shared dreams of loud rooms, cracked amps, and raging, sweaty crowds. Who or what was to hold them back from grasping out, from "living the dream?" Most importantly was that, unlike many bands, two of the members were students and two were teachers. And that the four hanging out in rock bars together was not exactly approved after-school development. Teenage kicks delivered by actual teenagers: Two recent high school grads bash out joyously hormonal power pop behind a frontman who was recently their teacher. Like School of Rock with more Kinks albums on the syllabus. Their combination of poppy hooks and the slightly psychedelic sounding bridge sum up to be basically perfect. MP3s: http://www.prettyactivity.com/mp3s/thehoundsofwar.mp3s ** HELP US CELEBRATE OUR ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY WITH THIS AWESOME SHOW ** Saturday, March 3rd @ 8pm @ Landlocked Music - $5 ------------------------------------------------------------------ CHARALAMBIDES (Kranky) - http://www.wholly-other.com/ PRIMORDIAL UNDERMIND (ex-Crystallized Movements, Vienna, Austria) - http://www.myspace.com/primordialundermind THE TEN THOUSAND THINGS (B'ton) - http://myspace.com/things10thousand To say that the words "unique" and "singular" are over-used in describing music is to state the obvious. To apply these words to the sounds created by the various duo/trio configurations of the Texas group Charalambides over the last decade plus would be understatement. To be sure there are numerous antecedents to their music; to deny this of any artist‘s work would be akin to saying that they are deaf. But they have surely broken new ground in the primitive / folk / mystic / improv / psych valley in which they toil. As Marcus Boon wrote in The Wire; "...here is a truly 21st century experimental ethnic music that explores quietness and stasis... in the same way that musicians in the second half of the 20th century discovered amplification, noise and speed." Primordial Undermind is led by ex-Crystalized Movements guitarist Eric Arn. Active for more than a decade in different forms and in different cities. Dark, spiritual, yin-and-yang paisley... These aren't just burnouts playing loud, distorted psych. They're paranoid burnouts playing loud, distorted psych. Behold the swirling madness and tranquility. From streams of molten electric guitar sputtering geysers of fluid ectoplasm into the air, to high desert country influenced elements left to blister and bleach in the sun... so utterly gorgeous in places it's like a long view of paradise.

This is the second record by The Besnard Lakes, Montrealers by way of Western Canada. Their independently released previous record, Volume I, came out in 2004, and it was noticed by critics but was largely overlooked by the public at large. On both records, The Besnard Lakes have shown that they are masters of finely-honed experimental pop songs that invoke the eerie Lynchian setting as aided and abetted by the music of Julee Cruise. But, on The Besnard Lakes Are The Dark Horse, the band throws into the mix a mad dash of Fleetwood Mac proportioned swagger and ambition. Not so incidentally, the Besnard Lakes have created a masterpiece that will resonate within all quarters, amongst critics, casual and not-so-casual rock listeners, garden variety pop fans and headphone junkies. MP3s: http://www.scjag.com/mp3/jag/andyouliedtome.mp3 http://www.madelinesongs.com/music/I%20Left%20The%20Light%20On.mp3 Monday, March 26th @ 8pm @ Landlocked Music - $5 ------------------------------------------------------------------ LADYHAWK (Vancouver, Jagjaguwar) - http://www.ladyhawkladyhawk.com/ MORROW (Bloomingtopia) - http://www.myspace.com/weatherprophets Ladyhawk's core is bracing rock. Neil Young's Tonight's The Night is the hailstorm on the hood of The Replacements Let It Be, while distorted guitars invoke the thread and swerve of Silkworm and Dinosaur Jr. Helped along the way by Amber Webber and Josh Wells of Black Mountain, it will be hard to find a more hauntingly beautiful set of rock music than this debut. It was recorded and mixed, with the help of Black Mountaineers Wells and Matthew Camirand, in the "Karachi Vice" clubhouse, in the back of a furniture factory, amongst chicken and fish processing plants. With some of the more "inexpensive" ladies of the night scattered about, it captures the bottlenecked frenzy of their much-loved live show. There, each night, these grown-up kids at heart fall over, get right back up, cry on shoulders and fold the day in halves, watching the sun come up over the dashboard. MP3s: http://www.scjag.com/mp3/jag/dugout.mp3 Monday, April 16th @ 8pm @ Landlocked Music - $5 ------------------------------------------------------------------ CASIOTONE FOR THE PAINFULLY ALONE (Chicago, Tomlab) - http://www.cftpa.org/ RIVULETS - http://www.rivulets.net/ Casiotone for the Painfully Alone is the musical alias of film school drop-out Owen Ashworth. Over his first few albums Ashworth defined a hybrid strain of raw, emotional, and very homemade synth pop that was instantly recognizable as his own - claustrophobic 2-minute character studies shuddered with reverbed beats, blown-out chords, and simple but infectous melodies, all layered beneath Ashworth's sometimes funny but always heartbreaking lyrics. Now the sound of Casiotone for the Painfully Alone has grown to include pianos, organs, strings, flutes, drums, and pedal steel guitars in addition to Ashworth's signature electronics and drum machines. Nathan Amundson began Rivulets in 1999, when his debut was issued by Chair Kickers' Union, the Duluth label run by Low. Often driven only by voice or quiet guitar, Rivulets was frighteningly gentle, yet genuinely powerful. The brooding love songs of Mark Kozelek's Red House Painters were an apt comparison, as were the acute, windswept soundscapes of Iceland's Sigur Ros. Most often, the music suggested the isolation and odd beauty found at the center of an iced-over lake in the middle of winter. On You Are My Home, Amundson is joined by the none too shabby musical guests Codeine's Chris Brokaw, Jessica Bailiff, Christian Frederickson of Rachel's, Boxhead Ensemble's Fred Lonberg-Holm and Bob Weston of Shellac and Mission Of Burma. Their combined guitars, keyboards, strings and horns work together with Amundson's heartbroken voice magically to create a deep dark melancholia.
