HOUNDS OF HATE 'Head Anthem' 12" PRE ORDER

THIS IS CURRENTLY A PRE ORDER.
RECORDS WILL SHIP APPROX 8TH NOV 2010

Following on from their debut 12” ‘I Like Triangles’ on Backyard Records, Italian Beach Babes are proud to announce Hounds of Hate second offering the 3 track 12” Head Anthem.

This London trio drop syrupy euphoria hits for the very late night. Their heavy, low-tech sound evokes, in their words, "a synthetic weave stuffed in a floppy drive" or "vaseline smeared on a Trax record". Hounds of Hate have catalogued diverse movements from their tweens by recreating exact sounds and recording techniques from that era. The conflict is in the naivete of their candid homage opposed by their own pessimism and tendency towards irony.

Their Recent US tour saw Hounds of Hate sharing stages with both Caribou and Fuck Buttons while in the UK their hypnotic live shows are attracting more and more fans each time they play out.

TRACKLISTING:
A1: Head Anthem
B1: Purple Stuff
B2: Phantasy Re-Up

DISTRO: NEW Captured Tracks Releases

New stuff in from Captured Tracks this week




WILD NOTHING "Summer Holiday" 7"



Emotive and well-crafted hazey pop from a 21-year old Virginian named Jack Tatum. His penchant for wistful melodies and full, gorgeous arrangements show a talent that's not just another bedroom pop one-man band. Debut LP on Captured Tracks coming next year.



LED ER EST "Poll Gorm/Man And Tree" 7"



Led Er Est add an organic and warm element to synth/drum machine-based music, all with good songwriting at it's heart. The a-side is manic and the b-side melodic. These two songs are not on their current LP, and they're two of their best.



SILK FLOWERS "As Above So Below" 12" EP



Six track EP by this current NYC live staple.
Eerie and experimental electronic pop.



BEACHNIKS - s/t 7" EP



Four songs about the summer delivered to you in the early winter. Fuzzy bubblegum 4-track pop. Features members of Crystal Stilts and German Measles. Poster sleeve. Poster life. "The Worst Dressed Band in New York."

Also Re Stock of the Ganglians 7"

Can all be found here

DISTRO: Flight 10" EP

Just got a handful of these, they came in quite expensive unfortunatly, but the record and artwork rules!





Mississippi’s one-man band Flight is back with his second ever release, a self-titled 10″ EP on Kill Shaman. A perfect medley of 70’s glam, 80’s punk and 60’s psych, Flight applies a fist-pumping lo-fi pop sensibility that is over-distorted, punchy, and punk as fuck. Contains four distinct tracks that completely distinct and kills the inner ear. With the volume turned up to the max, this blown-out and distorted piece of wax will be sure to please any fans of Live Fast Die, Cheap Time, Jesus and Mary Chain and anything else that shreds while maintaining a deeply seeded sense of pop-punk. Think of it as the perfect medium for early 90’s fuzz-gaze and 70’s glam punk.

Tracks:
1. Over My Head
2. My Business
3. Unpredictable
4. Molly, Don’t Fade
