anticipated releases of early xx12...

already i have quite the list of lps i wanna buy this year..... so many good bands putting out so many rock n rolling new albums.......


i thought i'd give you a list of three of the records i'm especially excited about.....  all of these releases are set to drop in the next month or so.....


so make sure you visit yer local record store when they hit the shelves....you won't been disappointed.....


DISAPPEARS are set to release their third full length, PRE LANGUAGE, on KRANKY.....and its even more rockin then their previous efforts.....featuring Steve Shelley from SONIC YOUTH on drums, PRE LANGUAGE brings the more of the same great propulsive kraut influenced garage psych that the Chicago scene knows and loves.   this is the lp that will finally make the rest of the indie world pay attention....



MIND SPIDERS seemed like a one off side project of THE MARKED MEN, slightly less punk and a bit more garage wall-of-sound...but the approach worked so well, MIND SPIDERS went back into the studio to record a second full length, MELTDOWN, out soon on DIRTNAP.  last year's release made my year end best of, and i think this one will too.....



after a couple of awesome singles on SLUMBERLAND, TERRY MALTS is about to release a debut full length, KILLING TIME.  reverb heavy chainsaw pop that on one hand is fuzzed up garage rock, and the other early 80s power pop punch...and a bit of that 70s punk vibe coating the whole thing.... some of the best songwriting you might come across all year..... and i definitely can't wait to get my hands of this album.....
