Hail Hail Physical Music! Record Store Day!

This Saturday is record store day! What could be better than grabbing new records on a Saturday?
We’re celebrating with a special limited edition 45 of ‘Undressed In Dresden” with a rad beat-less/synth-apella dub version of Max Pask’s mix. It’s only available in the shops.



We’re also djing over at Other Music in NY from 4-5 p.m.
Other has a big day planned with dj sessions from the likes Liquid Liquid’s Sal Principato and others and live performances from The Drums and The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart.
They’ll be announcing more details soon check it out here

Speaking of records,
The debut Dum Dum Girls LP is really great. It’s not exactly obscure or what have you, but it is good and you should get it. Lead Dum Dum ‘Dee Dee’ has forsaken the lo-fi trappings of her first EP relying on the ferocity of her hooks and voice to get the job done. She has a killer voice in the manner of John Lennon’s better stompers, a born yeller who has enough reedy grit to make you taste the sweat in the room. The production keeps plenty of the dirty bits to uphold the roots but those bits never overwhelm the tracks. The kicks are tight, the guitars fuzzed out and the songs super catchy. Think a crisper Vaselines, a looser Ramones, a much much cooler Screeching Weasel, Black Flag meets Shangri Las uptown.


We also recently picked up Zola Jesus, the new Minimal Wave comp, the now out on vinyl Raekwon, Beach House (Eleanore’s favorite LP this year) and this classic re-pressed Althea & Donna.





These are good records. Maybe Saturday’s the day to pick them up.
