of Montreal "Paralytic Stalks" shipping now!
February 2, 2012Paralytic Stalks, the latest from of Montreal, is now shipping!
Always one to be exploring new musical directions, Kevin Barnes (of Montreal's main creative force) has once again showcased his versatile talent as a songwriter with Paralytic Stalks. This is an album that contains some of Barnes' most personal confessions since 2007's Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? Musically, Paralytic Stalks is a whilrwind of modern classical, neo-prog, pseudo-country, and 60's pop - showing hints of Barne's extensive past repertoire, while intimately engaging listeners in a way like never before.
The cassette version of the album is limited to 500 hand-numbered copies on GREEN TINT tapes. Instant MP3 download is included.
Cassette + MP3 = $10 HERE: 
In addition, for those of you who reside in the great state of Indiana, we will be hosting a listening party for Paralytic Stalks this Friday at our new office. Kevin Barnes will be joining us immediately after for a live interview via Skype! 
Bird House out now - but not for long!
January 30, 2012Less than 50 copies remain of the amazing new LP from Jad Fair + Hifiklub + kptmichigan: Bird House!
With "Bird House", the legendary Jad Fair has teamed up with prolific French artist Hifiklub and Germany's kptmichigan to produce some of his most artistically engaging music in years. Best known as the founding member of Half Japanese, and collaborator with a slew of artists including Teenage Fanclub, Yo La Tengo, Sonic Youth, and Daniel Johnston - Jad Fair has firmly established his stature as a pioneer of lo-fi indie rock. Unlike the traditionally simple, playful style of Half Japanese, the new LP features hypnotic, fluid musicianship alongside Jad Fair's psychologically imbalanced vocal style. The end result is a strangely listenable blend of atmospherically tempered experimentalism.
"Bird House" is limited to a one-time pressing of just 300 hand-numbered 12" records. This single-sided LP features original Jad Fair artwork which is screen-printed directly on Side B of the record, and is packaged in a picture-disc sleeve. The first 45 copies were pressed on translucent gold vinyl with black ink - and sold out in no time flat. We have LESS THAN 50 COPIES remaining on beautiful translucent yellow vinyl with red ink (images below).
