SUN ARAW-"Off Duty + Boat Trip" (woodsist045) CD/12"

VINYL INCLUDES FREE DOWNLOAD COUPON FOR ALL FIVE TRACKS FROM THE CD
VERSION!!!
"When the On Patrol test presses hit the turntables, an epilogue burst
from the side of the Sun Araw cranium immediately, before it was even
cold on wax. The camera jumped all by itself, spontaneous framing and
new perspectives: "Last Chants" grips you in heavy, end-of-shift
panic; who knew "Holodeck Blues" got so rowdy? Surrounded and staring
down the barrels of some serious forces, the scum is rising. No
worries: you got backup, don't forget who's wearing the badge. Flip
the vision and make it all the way down, it's your party. "Midnight
Locker" is one chilled exhalation, all cold sweat and steam vents. The
cab ride home comes with AM radio ghosts, whispering again of that
heavier zone, it's time to get back. The flip side is pure secret sun-
day, sacred rest: the stairway to the stars. "Deep Temple," float on
up, the Heavy Deeds are waiting." --Aristocrat P. Child






ROYAL BATHS-"Litanies" (woodsist044) CD/LP

LP VERSION INCLUDES FREE DOWNLOAD COUPON!!!
"Royal Baths haven't had it easy. In a city where garage rock reigns
supreme and new bands form and fade away with the blink of an eye,
it's tough to get noticed unless your songs can satisfy punk rock
attention spans. But with four- to six-minute tracks and slow,
methodical drum beats, Royal Baths have won their way into the hearts
of even the most raucous audiences--a testament to both the ability
that San Franciscans have to recognize talent when they see it, and
also to the incredible music and spectacle that the Royal Baths have
created. "The band has its obvious influences--The Velvet Underground
and Spacemen 3--but to define them by these comparisons would be to
vastly oversimplify their sound. Songwriters Jeremy Cox and Jigmae
Baer draw from psychedelic soundscapes; dark, personal, and esoteric
subject matter; and a bit of punk's apathetic humor and exigency. They
conjure up haunting, reverb-heavy hymns to the degenerate and the
broken." --Emily Rose Epstein (SF Weekly, Thrasher Magazine, drummer
for Ty Segall)
