Man, these guys could put on a live show! But they also rocked a studio for these songs and they sound every bit as dreamy as they did live. Forever was Ben Young's post-Bad Poet/pre-Bon Vivants group, and if you are familiar with either of those incarnations you'll be ripe for this sweet fruit. It's an actual CD with a poor reproduction of one of Ben's paintings on the cover - a kind of nod to Love's Forever Changes LP. Get it? I knew you would. $5.
"Forever pretents nothing more than to be just a pop band. Making good songs and tunes is their trade. They sound unpretentious, friendly and a litle folky. Their are some nice instumental (distorted) parts. Nice arrangments also. These people seem to be in good balance. So have a good time with 'Love changes'." - Vital Weekly

BRILLIANT CONCERT NUMBERS
When all this madness began in 1994, one of the people we wanted most to work with was Eric Gaffney. The guy contributed some of the wildest/weirdest tunes to the Sebadoh catalog, and helped warp our minds. Fast forward a few years and we track him down and managed to put this CD out. It was our first "real" CD in a case with printed insert and shrink wrap. We sold almost all of them, but did get about two dozen back from a distributor. The cases are damaged, but the music is still awesome. If you want one we can keep it as is or put it in a new case for you. Your choice. $10 each.
"...fans of early Sebadoh, where Gaffney's Hyde was the perfect foil to Barlow's Jekyll, will no doubt find much to admire in this collection, and there are indeed a number of lo-fi gems here." - Reviewed by Mark Thompson, www.lostatsea.net

DUST COLLECTION AGENCY
Witt was one of atlanta's great artists, who left an incomparable stamp on everyone he knew before passing in 2000. Many friends and relatives helped put this astounding comp together that only begins to cover his remarkable range. Noise and ambient explosives punctuated with pop marvels and punk rambles. With solo jazz peices, a Smoke-esque track and a computer playable movie. Treat yourself.
"Some is pretty and some is creepy and some is just straight up weird. Highly recommended." -Katie P, KZSU

FAIRMOORE
MAN, is this a great cd - as adorable as the drawings of a newborn child. We can hardly believe we put it out! Jad Fair is pretty well known for his career writing and singing catchy songs of adoration and mayhem with Half Japanese and 6,000 other units. R. Stevie Moore should be well known, especially now that everyone out of California seems to reference his fidelity style, but also because he's released something akin to 6,000 albums. Seriously. Kinda. But don't take our word for it:
"Utterly poppy and slightly twisted at the same time...the best album Fair has been involved with since the heyday of Half Japanese." Stewart Mason, AMG
"Worthwhile for the adventurous (Rating: 5 - excellent)" - Babysue
"a wild and wooly ride of childish humor and wacky home-recorded pop. (4) (out of 5)" - Tom Schulte, Outsight
"A lovely, heartfelt effort that shows both in top form." - Dave Mandl, The Brooklyn Rail

OBVIOUS URBAN LANDSCAPE
After three wildly different cassettes for Old Gold, our man in Hoboken, Tim Foljahn delivered this CD that's different from any of the tape or anything else he's done as Two Dollar Guitar, La Lingua Assessina, Mosquito, or Male Slut. Nine tracks that kinda walk listeners around a construction site where robots are building a ghetto from scratch. They have no plans to go by, good rhythm, and something keeps eating their work at night. Edition of 500 CD that comes with reading for the eyes closed. Embrace your pillow. $5
"A one-hour-long electronic journey through the man's complex mind, packaged with a twenty-page booklet of dream journal diary entries. Lovely, and limited to 500 copies." - Midheaven/Revolver

SIMULANDO UN REFUGIO
The first American release from Buenos Aries-born, Barcelona-based sound artist Christian Dergarabedian, ex-Reynols/CD& Lens Cleaner Trio. Electronic sound collage in the tradition of "Jungle Cookies" and "Obvious Urban Landscapes," using field recordings and AMMesque instrumental improvisation, "Simulando" rockets these techniques into the 21st century, layering fascinating atmospheres and moods spanning two continents - bordering on the fringes of elusive black hole delirium, destined to take you places you will never want to leave.
