Post Eurofission Bong Conquest* / Pentecost Sunday greetings!

Out now, number 98 and 99 in the A Beard of Snails Records saga:

ABOS3-061: Caligine "Anomia Mediterranea"
More than simply a "freak-folk-and-beyond CD-R to end all freak-folk-
and-beyond CD-Rs", Caligine's latest (after exceptional past
appearences on Jozik, Stunned, Sturmunddrugs, and The Wool Shop
Productions, as well Caligine's own Monstres par Excès) attains
absolute tour de force status, here.

Revel in these tranquil, entrancing transworldly acoustic anomalies,
stellar ether-songs, and roaring, electrified oceanographic
pedalpushers, interspersed with archeological samples and such...

A B of S's elegant edition comes in a sleeve of different types/layers
of paper/plastic. A vinyl release, with different artwork, will likely
happen through Monstres par Excès later.

ABOS3-089: Shalocins "Another Hovering Menace"
From the Spanish spellcaster (also) known as Shalocins: new hovering,
menacing, singular, textured (de)compositions. A fine melding of
industrial paranoia percussion, "saxophony", and sinister oscillator
energy; warped hyper-realities, garage bliss at its finest. In an
edition of 16, in watercolour'd, Xerox'd envelope covers.

PS: Very low stock of most of our past still available CD-Rs, and many
of our tapes (some as few as two copies.) Now may be an OK time to
grab something (package discounts are still in effect; not stopping
any time soon.)

There will also be a small limited time dealie-o on (and/or to
"celebrate") the 100th release (and the label in general?) - the
"Bearded Snails" three three-inch compilation, once it's out. ASAP.

All for now!
Take care,
Christian of Snails
