Featured Album: Men/Talk About Body

In stock on vinyl is the debut record from the electro-wonders MEN. MEN is headed by JD Samson, former member of Le Tigre and DJ extraordinaire. Talk About Body is at once euphoric in sound and quite heavy in content. Listen for the beats, listen for the message, or both! 

From MEN's site: 

"MEN is a Brooklyn-based band and art/performance collective...MEN focus on the energy of live performance and radical potential of dance music. Their music speaks of issues such as wartime economies, sexual compromise, and the demand for liberties through lyrical content and an inventive, high-energy stage show."

If MEN sounds tempting, also come in and check out records by MIA and CSS, both dynamic electronic albums.

Sweet & functional!

"On Dum Dum Girls’ debut, the band channels ’60s girl groups with innocent lyrics about hand-holding and first kisses.

Pretty tunes and melodramatic lyrics like these would normally require a suspension of disbelief when delivered by a group of badass-looking vamps in tight black dresses, but lead singer Dee Dee, aka Kristin Gundred of now-defunct Grand Ole Party, imparts the teenybopper lines with spot-on deadpan. Several of the waltzy tracks on I Will Be could even—coincidentally—pass as contemporary versions of “The Dum Dum Ditty” by the Shangri-Las. So it’s no surprise that the album was produced by Richard Gottehrer, the 

guy behind “My Boyfriend’s Back” and albums from Blondie and the Go-Go’s. But the most unifying element of Dum Dum Girls’ image and sound is the band’s ardently fuzzy lo-fi production. With simple melodies and steady, unadorned drums, the band oscillates between ethereal Beach Boys–like harmonies and the snotty attitude of the Slits—quite a winning combo."

Featured Album! Sonic Youth's Dirty

In stock is one of our favorite albums ever, Sonic Youth's Dirty! What makes this record special is that upon reissue in 2003, it was expanded to include four LP's full of original tracks plus all sorts of bonus songs (unreleased demos, exclusive tracks, etc.). Every record is awesome, cranking out classic SY and throwing in unique extra tracks to keep it interesting.

The music is as powerful as ever, particularly some of the harder to find tracks that have been included! Just as a bonus, the packaging and sleeves are all terrific works of art in their own right.

Check out some of the materials:

In the words of the band themselves..."Now more than ever. Get Dirty. It's yer right."
