New records downtown and uptown!

I just dropped off tons of new records on Marigny Street:

KOWLOON WALLED CITY - Gambling on the Richter Scale lp
The 10"s I grabbed are already gone, and I think we're down to one copy of this LP. Great stoner metal stuff from San Francisco that even a person like me who hates that s can love. I'm trying to get these guys to come down in the fall. Get with it.

SALOME lp
Super heavy, female / demon fronted doom from Virginia. Kat also sings in AGORAPHOBIC NOSEBLEED these days. Grab this awesome record and get ready for the BR show they're doing on March 20th!

POLLUTION Nasty DNA lps + 120608 tapes
Harsh hardcore from New York with folks from UNEARTHLY TRANCE. A modern version of Black Flag / Born Against / Rorschach?

TOMBS lp + TOMBS / PLANKS split lp
Killer black metal influence hardcore from New York with ex-ANODYNE. The split with PLANKS has a tight silk screened cover. And PLANKS rules--HIS HERO IS GONE style hardcore from Germany.

ASRA lp
Brutal grindcore for fans of NAPALM DEATH, MAN IS THE BASTARD, DISCORDANCE AXIS, etc.

DEAD FRIENDS lp
Florida hardcore for people still craving that old 90s emo sound--Palatka, End of the Century Party, etc.

MEHKAGO NT lp
Old school grindcore with a crusty / d-beat thing happening as well. Supposedly members of TORCHE and SHITSTORM. Is that true?

ANCIENT HEAD lp
Weirdo, psychedelic, indie rock stuff with ex-members of MAJORITY RULE, DARKEST HOUR, CITY OF CATERPILLAR, VERSE EN COMA, etc. Pat from GHASTLY CITY SLEEP is in this band.

CITY OF SHIPS / SOUVENIER'S YOUNG AMERICA split lp
Epic, heavy stuff for folks into ISIS, EARTH, CULT OF LUNA, GRAILs.

LITANY FOR THE WHALE - Dolores lp
Pageninetynine throwback type stuff from Santa Rosa.

NUX VOMICA / THE MAKAI split 10"
Crust punk / metal from Portland plus Swedish thrash / metal from Chico. Gel up that hair and grab your spikes and studs.

ROT IN HELL / THE PROCESS split 7"
Sick, "holy terror" hardcore from the UK. ROT IN HELL was one of the only bands we liked from the UK. Great dudes, sick music. They're doing stuff with DEATHWISH now, and I should have their LP on A389 shortly.

AUSTRASIAN GOAT 7"
French black metal on NOXIOUS NOIZE RECORDS. I grabbed a few more of these from Christion. Now go to town.

Plus, a literal FUCK TON of used stuff, including some amazing out of print stuff like...

- that old FOOD NOT BOMBS comp (the one with Anomie, Palatka, Holocron, etc.)
- TEM EYOS KI lp and 7"
- PALATKA - The End of Irony lp
- DETESTATION lp
- RACEBANNON - In the Grips of the Light lp
- BLEED - Bully Complex lp

I also dropped off a small pile of new stuff down at the Hey! Cafe over the weekend...

GOOD LUCK - Into Lake Griffy lp
Just back in print. Matty Pop Chart (Mt. Gigantic), Ginger (One Reason), and Mike (K-10 Prospect) doing amazing, poppy, emo stuff.

I HATE MYSELF - 10 Songs lp
Speaking of emo--here's the definitive emo band, and their best record.

ABE FROMAN lp
Last few copies of this bad boy. Killer, sloppy, political pop punk from Matty Pop Chart and Erin Tobey and friends.

AMERICAN CHEESBURGER / RELIGIOUS AS FUCK - split lp
I grabbed a few more copies of this amazing hardcore record, so all you uptown hermits could check it out as well. Cheeseburger's playing here in a couple of weeks. Religious as Fuck is brutal, straight forward hardcore (for fans of Left for Dead, Asshole Parade, Negative Approach, and so on).

THIS IS MY FIST - A History of Rats lp + split 7" with FIFTH HOUR HERO
One of the best pop punk records out there and their newest split 7". Female fronted, Bay Area awesomeness. Even Andy Gibbs likes this band.

THIS BIKE IS A PIPE BOMB - all the big ones!
Dance Party with... 10", Front Seat Solidarity lp, Three Way Tie for Fifth lp, and the newest Convertible lp. Finally restocked these bad boys.

I also dropped off copies of the NUX VOMICA / THE MAKAI split 10", the SALOME lp, and a few cheap used records from GAMEFACE and THEY WILL KNOW US BY THE TRAIL OF DEAD.

And I moved the last couple of copies of THE SCREAMING FEMALES Power Move lp uptown. And I brought by some overstock copies of the black metal zine OAKENTHRONE.

I'll be back at the uptown spot Saturday night to restock all the Thou stuff that's gone. And I'll be hitting the downtown store that night as well for the same and also to work in a big ol' mess of REVELATION RECORDS hc stuff--all the classics--CHAIN OF STRENGTH, GORILLA BISCUITS, JUDGE, YOUTH OF TODAY, etc. I also grabbed a few copies of the BURNING FIGHT book which I'll drop in both stores.

Next up is probably another small NO IDEA order to grab the represses of the LIFETIME and JAWBREAKER records and maybe a couple of other odds and ends (the new CURSED 7", the OMEGAS 7", maybe that GET RAD lp). After that, I need to buckle down and do a big EBULLITION order, restock a few things, and grab some newer hardcore and power violence stuff.

I hope that sounds good to you.
