Ghost Rhythms - Spectral Music CD "Quite often, we...don't remember our dreams, but dreams always...do remember us." “[This] is music made at a high level, but with an accessibility and humor that makes it cracking entertainment as much as high art.” – The Big Takeover *Spectral Music* is Ghost Rhythms’ second release on Cuneiform Records after 2019’s Live at Yoshiwara, a live album consisting almost entirely of new material, and is their sixth full-length studio effort… Rune 486 $15.00
Flux - Flux vinyl lp (due to size and weight, this price for the USA only. Outside of the USA, the price will be adjusted as needed) Surprisingly good, completely and utterly unknown 1973 prog rock which has never been released or heard or known about until now. Vocals are not strong, but everything else is! “Searing art rock monsterpiece dominated by a relentlessly coruscating lead guitar sonic attack as if played by a demonically possessed John McLaughlin. Flux is ex–Babe Ruth, ex–Motiffe, with lead guitar by John Grimaldi before he joined Argent and worked on their prog masterpiece ’Circus’. This LP is taken from. 23-SCLP 005 $28.00

Ahleuchatistas - What You Will Third and best yet from this amazing instrumental, post-Beefheart, avant-technical, improv-core, math-metal, art-damage, punk-rock power trio from Asheville, NC. Using the simple and classic skeleton of guitar, bass and drums, these three make powerful music that is undeniably 'rock' but is also undeniably much wider in musical influences than what one would imagine in such rock-based work. For example, the opening song is Remember Rumsfeld at Abu Ghraib; of course we all know what that title... Rune 221 $15.00
Surplus 1980 - Pigeon Obstacle Course “Surplus1980’s second full-length album expands their palette of angular post-punk with shades of avant-prog and art rock. Led by former Sleepytime Gorilla Museum’s Moe! Staiano, Surplus1980’s music lands in the vicinity of The Fall, The Ex and Pere Ubu to create their own blend of modern no-wave angst. Combined with Staiano’s playful lyrics, Surplus 1980's music is a thick slab of out-jazz, with more than a dash of punk ferocity. You there, with the pigeon on your head: Thank you!... G1506 $10.00

Marvelous Kid - After The Race CD Seelie Court is a label filled with hype. You betcha. Having said this, this is a never-before released, very good vocal orented 1973 era progressive rock album.

Coke Weed - Mary Weaver "On Coke Weed's "Mary Weaver", the New England-based quintet's fourth release, the band's longstanding love for the glam/art-rock axis, class of West Berlin, comes to the fore. The result is a panorama that encompasses Bolan's boogie, the kraut/R&B hybrids of Bowie's "Station to Station", and the desperate romanticism of Roxy Music and Iggy Pop. As Coke Weed continues to refine its trademark hard-edged choogle, "Mary Weaver" brings a new emphasis on grimy dance work-outs. On songs like... BBIBR 024 $12.00
