Better Than Wages is Astrid Swans third album. This time she wanted to have her own rock band, play with young and greedy musicians and have fun with the pop aesthetic, song form and the classic rock band sound a la Blondie and The Pretenders. To realize this vision Astrid recruited The Drunk Lovers: Niko Votkin (Drums), Arvi Hasu (bass) and Coma Svensson (guitars). The band brings an abrasive excitement to the new songs Astrid unfurls on Better Than Wages. These musicians have played in such bands as Staireo, Rubik, and Knuckle Bone Oscar.
Lyrically the Arthur Miller quoting Better Than Wages focuses on femininity and masculinity ideals in Misfit, sibling love in Unrelated, misplaced national identity in Finland In November, and Facebook as a relationship phenomenon in Status Update. Musically the album has a rough texture with a live sounding lo-fi aesthetic contrasted with a hand-played electronic pallet. All this is underlined with Astrid Swans distinctive vocal delivery to create an accessible album featuring Astrids strongest most melodic set of songs.��T��B�K�S�T��U�T�

From deep in the cosmos of Iowa, and from the same interstellar scene that gave you Radio Moscow, comes MONDO DRAG, orbiting the planet's garage, psych, space, sludge and stoner rock. With
a wall of sound all their own, an arsenal of guitars, and a head full of clouds, they are on a rock n'roll mission. Formed by Johnnie Cluney (drums/vocals), Nolan Girard (rhythm guitar/vocals), John Gomino (keyboards/saxophone), Dennis Hockaday (bass), and Jake Sheley (lead guitar) the band is flying head-first into the future, while channeling artists from the past; Pink Floyd, Pentagram, Blue Cheer, even Hendrix are part of their musical lexicon, while Sonic Youth, Dead
Meadow, and Comets on Fire hint to their current references.
Reissue of this magical album that merges rock, soul and psychedelia with Venezuelan rhythms. Recorded in London in 1973, Spiteri gained the support of artists such as Noel Redding, Paul McCartney, Rod Stewart, Bob Marley, Steve Winwood and many others. This is the only legacy from the most important Latin rock group from Venezuela. CD version includes 8 bonus tracks. Detailed notes about their incredible story. 12. RETORNO #2; 13. IM A MAN; 14.

Ignored by the masses, loved by the underground, never simple always unique. For many years now they're considered to be th cult group of Flanders & after 5 years of silence around the band, it's time to write another chapter in the big Aroma-book.
On their first release in 16 (!) years, the history of the
band is being captured in 47 tracks. Carried by a deep bass, typical cold new wave drums, biting guitar riffs and a shamanic voice they make about the most original music of their generation. Aroma di Amore makes subtle as well as raw songs
with the occasional flavor of absolute madness. The double disc set "Onverdeeld" is an anthology of more than a quarter century of musical output. The two discs contain almost all of the tracks that ever appeared on LP, completed by a few live-tracks and 4 unreleased songs. The booklet of 16 pages immerses you in the smell of love. With pictures by Eric Didden, an extensive biography and the extraordinary lyrics by Elvis Peeters.

T-MODEL's first, and only, ACOUSTIC album! On July 22, 2008, James "T Model" Ford stepped into Planet Paul Studios in Wichita, KS at the end of his first formal tour in years. Rumors of his demise had been laid to rest after two weeks of T Model's performing his raw, rough, & tumble blues. T wanted to play acoustic guitar and have 100% control over the record, so everyone agreed he should do it the way he wanted. The engineer simply let the tapes roll & T Model made it look easy. One song after another just rolled out of him. "The Ladies Man" is the product of this afternoon session in Wichita. This is pure T Model, with some newer young musician friends playing along with him. It is also the only acoustic album T has ever recorded and it's a blast. "I don't have a care in the world," T Model would remark occasionally. He'd back it up by taking time in the studio to sip Jack Daniels from his flask and tell "blue" stories or tales of his life's hardships to his new set of listeners. At 88 years old, he appeared younger and livelier than many folks a fraction of his age and this amazing record is the proof.
