High Bias: the Distorted History Of The Cassette Tape, Product Type: (Book)

Marc Masters, Product Title:
Cheap! Easy! This very entertaining book charts the journey of the cassette from its invention in the early 1960s to its Walkman-led domination in the 1980s to decline at the birth of compact discs to its current mini-resurgence..press play on this! Read more

Estrus - Shovelin' The Shit Since '87, Product Type: (Book)

Chris Coyle & Scott Sugiuchi,
Straight-up bee-yoo-tiful document of this “100% Apeshit Rock” Washington label…great photos & art in an oversize tome…put on some Man Or Astro-Man?, open it up & and wig out! Read more

Brave Words (Expanded & Remastered), Product Type: (LP)

The Chills, Product Title:
Their debut LP from 1987 was full of great songs, but Mayo Thompson's production was fulla murk...this reissue sets the record straight. "Rain", "Wet Blanket", "Look For The Good In Others", "16 Heartthrobs"...a lot of the best tracks from their early days are here, and it's finally got the sonic heft it needed. Extra tracks too! Read more

Intercepted Message, Product Type: (LP)

Osees, Product Title:
Kinda poppy but still raucous & obnoxious, The Osees 300th LP is another winner from the World's best live band...although the final power ballad "Submerged Building" is a parody that doesn't fit with the scrotum-jangling groove of the other songs...their gig at The Chapel in September was heavy-ass!! Read more

Zuma 85 (LP)

Allah Las
Another slice of cool CA pop from Matt Coreia & Co..."Jelly" shimmers like its eponymous footstuff...another mojito please bartender! Read more

Crashin' From Passion (LP)

Betty Davis
The last LP from this fantastic performer dates from 1979, and it's got a lot more variety than its more funky predecessors without ever taking its foot off the quality control pedal..."Quintessence Of Hip", "You Take Me For Granted" & the title track are killer, and she's in great voice throughout. Great cover too! Read more

Jaws 2,3 and 4, Product Type: (DVD)

, Product Title:
Jaws 4: The Revenge is my new favorite so bad it’s good flick. I saw it on a Christmas list of movies recently and I was like WTF…upon review it is 100% a Christmas movie and also 100% terrible. “High”lights ( you must watch this movie stoned to fully appreciate its attributes) include Mario Von People’s portrayal of the Rasta shark expert assigned to the doomed expedition, Michael Caine as Hoagie the bush pilot and the titular shark’s ROAR. Watch it with your friends and howl with delight- Read more

FKA Lingua Ignota, Kristin Hayter went crazy with this one. It makes me feel like I'm in a horror movie set in a tiny, old-timey, appalachain church. It's joyful and it's scary and it's haunting and it's weird and it's perfect <3 Read more
