New Releases for February 1st, 2019

BEIRUT GALLIPOLI CD/LP

“Triumphant horns, Farfisa organ, synthesizer and parading drums pervade the tracks. Notes are channeled, according to Condon, through broken amplifiers, PA systems, space echoes and tape machines in order to create planned imperfection. Vocally, Condon comes through more powerful on this album.” - AP

CHERRY GLAZERR STUFFED & READY CD/LP/TAPE

“While Creevy’s music has stayed grounded in 1980s and 1990s alternative rock she has expanded her sounds and dynamics with each album. In the studio, the band uses layers of guitars and occasional dollops of synthesizer to make each song evolve from within: fragile or eerie at one moment, ironclad the next.” - The New York Times

GIRLPOOL WHAT CHAOS IS IMAGINARY CD/LP

“On album number three, LA duo Cleo Tucker and Harmony Tividad take a widescreen approach to their eclectic alt-pop, alternating between dreamy soundscapes, country jangle and cacophonous shoegaze.” - NME

MANDOLIN ORANGE TIDES OF A TEARDROP CD/LP

Tides of a Teardrop is engineered to settle worried minds, slow the blood and lend an empathetic ear. The album still strikes a deceptively tricky balance: It's palliative but never boring, sweet but never cloying, worn but never tired.” - NPR
