NEW ARRIVALS for December 20th .................................................. Books! .................................................. As always, we try to stock a decent collection of the intruiging 33 1/3 book series. This series matches a different author with one album from an artist's discography to pen a short book that can be autobiographical, biographical, fictional, or something in between about that album and its influence. Always different, always interesting and fun. We also have the recent tome from Chunklet Industries, The Indie Cred Test. Nearly 200 pages of humor for the ultimate music nerd test. Also check out the Touch & Go: Complete Hardcore Punk Zine compendium by Tesco Vee - an amazing document of the punk era from 1979-83. Also eyeball the Antony artbook, Beastie Boys Hot Sauce Committee deluxe book and all the cool used books we have on our bookshelf! CD Box Sets! .................................................. Lots and lots of CD box sets are in stock and waiting for your loving embrace! Including titles such as: Nick Drake's Fruit Tree collection, the complete Beatles albums, The Doors, Hendrix live at Winterland, Nirvana Nevermind deluxe, John Fahey's Your Past Comes Back to Haunt You unreleased box, a really cool Bollywood soundtracks box, and tons more, not to mention all the great "normal" CDs! Common - Dreamer the Believer (Think) .................................................. The Dreamer, The Believer delivers the consciousness Common's audience has to come expect from him, but also a rawness and passion that might come as a surprise. Some might even say that he's rapping with a chip on his shoulder. High Dive - s/t (No Idea) .................................................. New locals High Dive release their debut album. Featuring Toby Foster - guitar and vocals, Ryan Woods (Defiance, Ohio) - bass and vocals, and Nick Romy (The Delicious) - drums and vocals. Recorded at Russian Recording in Bloomington, IN with Mike Bridavsky. Self-described as pop/queer/punk. Gig Posters! .................................................. Spirit of 68 Promotions is clearing off their poster archive shelf once again and you are the benefit! A portfolio chock full of posters both recent and years past are browsable and available for only $10/each! Some of these beautiful prints from Mile 44 (and others) have very few remaining copies, so its first come, first serve. A great way to decorate those barren walls. RR Cable Co - Silver Series cables .................................................. We have newly stocked RR Cable Co. cables at Landlocked! These include the new SILVER SERIES line of cables. They are still handmade and come with a lifetime guarantee but are more affordable than our original GOLD SERIES cables (which are still available). We have each in different lengths and colors! RR Cable Co cables make great Christmas gifts for the musician in your life. T-Shirts & Etc! .................................................. Having a hard time figuring it out? You can always buy em a lovely Landlocked Music t-shirt! Show your support for local biz, represent B-town, and look good all at the same time. Or, you can grab the amazing seasonal design from Flannelgraph Records - Featuring Arthur "the Fonz" Fonzarelli expressing his gratitude after being invited to spend Christmas with the Cunninghams- proceeds benefit Stepping Stones here in Bloomington. Or if you opt for a "one size fits all" style, you can always go for the classic Landlocked Gift Certificate, sure to bring tears of joy upon its receipt!
