A project nearly two years in the making, Satanic Twins features remixes from the likes of Broken Spindles, Grizzly Bear, I Am The World Trade Center, Restiform Bodies, and more.

Described by Res Magazine as an "ethereal anthem with a great bass hook and gently chiming guitars", the song transcends and destroys the generational gap that plagues so many bands these days who were influenced by Joy Division and new wave hookery. This single also includes the "Fear Is On Our Side" outtake, "Close To Here" and the newly recorded piece, "Better Strangers".

The A side is "Burning Palace," a hip-hop tempo electronic pop anthem. The flip side is a far more melancholic effort and takes distorted vintage Khonnor pads and loops and layers over a twisted but tear-inducing vocal part destined to melt the hearts of Swedish ladies the world over. A great way to start the 7" series and a perfect next step from Khonnor before his eagerly-anticipated sophomore album."

Over the years the two have been quietly making music in between Animal Collective and Black Dice commitments. Recorded in their apartment while living in Paris last summer, Terrestrial Tones' third record Dead Drunk sounds like the duo spent a bit too much time in the Parisian flea markets. African food stands, forgotten European pop records, discarded American analog pedals and junk, old Soviet electronics, they all come together into something highly disconcerting, curiously pleasurable, and beyond new."

And yes, these folks are lumped in there. What the hell, they're ‘folky', right? Well, regardless of all the silly sub-categorization, this album is amongst the finest, not just folk, but straight-up albums released in 2005. It is a classic, up there with Devendra's most sublime moments (if you need a ‘folky' touchstone). Right from the get go, the opening track ‘Old Black Hat', it is clear that we have peaked in on something special. Jangle-y guitars, a sea of unique voices and sitar blanket this trip. Both the previously mentioned ‘Come Around' and the track preceding it, ‘Past the Moon' are two the songs that most signify what I mentioned before: they are undeniably familiar, but they don't sound like anyone else's songs. If they catch me just right I'll swear to you I grew up singing those songs around bonfires. We light candles, we pour the wine and we sit back, enraptured by these bewitching songs; lost, glassy-eyed, terrifyingly filled with joy. Tingly all over…"

But a new crop of Aussies is levelling the playing field. Leading the way is the brother/sister duo of Michael and Kristina Donnelly AKA Brothers of the Occult Sisterhood. These cosmic travelers are soaked to the bone in dust, like relics from the past. They speak only in tongues and send out shortwave psychedelic radio transmissions into the bleeding edges of drugged-out folk sludge.

BOTOS' organic compositions are familiar to many by now. After a string of CD-R releases on Time-Lag, Celebrate Psi-Phenomenon, and others, this is their first pro-pressed offering. Building on transcendent themes and saturating everything in an all-encompassing puff of bong smoke. Endless walls of instrumentation create artificial bounderies that the Donnellys destroy with far-reaching, hypnotic drones. By the time"Goodbye" comes to a grinding halt, it feels like the stuff of legend. Brothers of the Occult Sisterhood are only interested in blowing your skull to smithereens while cradling you in their arms. They are simply magnificent, and there aren't many doing it better these days.

The first 500 copies come in silkscreened sleeves done by the New Zealand arthouse/imprint, United Fairy Moons."

This is the final word in the densely organic series begun with The Exorcist and Nowonmai. While Nowonmai pushed the steam through the grates of our desperate streets, Alone blows the caps off to come crashing down on the concrete, spinning in stereo up to its abrupt end, with a cold voice reversing its predecessor's backward message into harsh English..."I AM NO ONE!" Moogs, drum machines, pianos, acoustic guitars, synth bass, all get the call as the band takes their post-rock sound to new heights. For fans of Godspeed You Black Emperor & Mogwai. Enhanced CD features a video for the song "Bursting With Tears, I Commit to Destroying You."

Mark Mallman's In Love Witcha is the kind of tounge in cheek pop that makes you wonder, "How serious is Mr. Serious?" The Coke Dares are simply a riot. It's what the men do when they're not backing Scout Niblett, Jens Lekman, or busy with their other bands Magnolia Electric Co. and the Impossible Shapes. Seeing Mallman and The Coke Dares together live would possibly melt brains."

We managed to swoop up some copies of this rare beast and are pleased to deliver the goods, as this thing fully rips and roars. All new (and exclusive) songs from each of these fine VA bands with some of the wildest artwork... ever?! It looks and sounds great, and it should also be noted that this is the f'd up first press with the center labels on backwards (ie, the Order side is really the Dolphins side, and vice versa)... so put that in your pipe and smoke it! This shit rules, and isn't widely available... so get it!"]]></description><pubDate>2006-04-07</pubDate></item><item><title>Mono - You Are There - 2xLP (Temporary Residence Limited)</title><link>http://www.indieworkshop.com/distro.php?id=67</link><description><![CDATA[From the Temporary Residence - "Captured to tape by Steve Albini at his Electrical Audio studios in Chicago, IL, You Are There extends the cinematic drama of 2003's Walking Cloud and Deep Red Sky, Flag Fluttered and the Sun Shined (also recorded by Albini), while surpassing the sinister heaviness of 2002's lauded One Step More and You Die. MONO disproves the myth that an increased focus on intricate song structures and string arrangements comes at the expense of youthful energy and inspired aggression. With You Are There, MONO's representation of tragedy comes with an inherent joy, delivered with the hope that in all dark there is equal parts light. They're not heavy like Black Sabbath - they're heavy like Beethoven."

If you're not familiar with Chicago's Tight Phantomz you are seriously missing out. This is some serious fist-pumping-while-wearing-a-headband-and-rocking-an-Old-Style rock and roll. Leg kicks and all, Tight Phantomz rock you through "Sickening" and prepare you the continuing onslaught brought to you by Tornavalanche. Consisting of members of a million other bands, Tornavalanche jam out some great fractured indie rock. If you dig early June of 44' you are going to love what these guys are laying down."
