Well i’m told that this may be the last week of summer release schedule. I know there are some big things already en route and lots coming out real soon too. Not that it matters cuz we are so stocked up with great stuff right now that you still could do some serious damage to your finances in here right now..pick of the week. *gareth williams & mary currie – flaming tunes – blackest ever black – lp – holy wow! This little lost cassette gem from 1985 gets reissued on vinyl for the first time ever. A stunning and timeless sounding album, which is actually something that i think can be said for almost everything that this heat ever did.

Right, rewind. Gareth williams was one of the three members of the mighty this heat. After he left the band and traveled to india, he returned to london and recorded this album. While you can still hear some similarities, this album is a completely different animal. Williams sought to create a completely different mood and texture than his work with this heat, and i’d say he was hugely successful in that.

On the surface this album sounds much more lo-fi than the this heat recordings, however as you listen and the layers of field recordings, piano, percussion, and vocals reveal themselves to you, you realize that this is anything but lo-fi How To Install Oil Catch Can On Subaru Wrx. . Gone is the angst and urgency and are replaced with joy and playfulness. I would argue that this is likely the best this heat related release, and possibly given more time with this album, it could be even better than the this heat albums proper but let’s not get hasty. Remastered from the master tapes in 2009, this is the first ever vinyl release of these recordings. Can’t recommend this enough, and really, i’m almost out, but hopefully will be getting more..new arrivals. Here i thought the new releases were slowing down, but it seems to be picking up! And on top of that, i’m going to look at another collection tonight tune in to our twitter or instagram feed tomorrow hopefully i’ll be posting some gems..pick of the week.

*monoshock – walk to the fire – s-s – 2lp – in tomorrow s.s. Records is proud to announce the reissue of monoshock’s walk to the fire double album. Long considered a classic by music freaks and much sought after by modern psych nodes, the remastered reissue of monoshock’s monster has been anticipated for quite some timeand now it is here. Monoshock’s roots lie in ilsa vista, a charming student ghetto stuck on california’s central coast. It was there that umbilical chords, a punk quartet who shot snot on the year 1987, were born.

Scrappy and snotty, the chords were led by guitarist grady runyan. By 1988 the chords were gone and runyan, scott derr and rubin fiberglass formed monoshock taking garage blargh into realms previously occupied by the stooges, amon duul ii, hawkwind, blue cheer, and other proponents of punkoid psychedelia or psychedelic punk or just good and loud rock & roll music. Later joined by aluminum queen on saxophone and doug pearson on all things doug pearson, monoshock recorded three singles (on womb, blackjack, and bag of hammers) and a now legendary double album called walk to the fire (blackjack).

The 1995 release of their magnum opus also coincided with the end of the band. Praised a handful of people at the time, walk to the fire didn’t really start getting its due until julian cope featured it on his website head heritage, bands such as comets on fire and the wooden shjips started referencing monoshock as an influence, and s.s. Records assembled a cd anthology of monoshock’s singles, compilation tracks and demo recordings (2004’s runnin ape-like from the backwards superman). Since its release walk to the fire has been hailed as a “barbarian classic” by julian cope (who also wrote that ”monoshock was to rock’n’roll what those miles davis 1975 wa-everything japan-release-only double-vinyl monsters (get up with it, agartha, dark magus) were to jazz. That is, superfluous to the fucking intellectuals but spiritual carbohydrates for the ones who knew”). It attracted the attention of one steve mackay—sax man on the stooge’s funhouse—who would later play in runyan’s post-monoshock ensemble liquorball. Mojo magazine featured it as a “buried treasure.” brian turner of wfmu calls it one of the best records of the era.
