Because The Internet is the sophomore album from Childish Gambino, the stage name of Grammy, Golden Globe, and Emmy Award-winning recording artist, actor, and producer Donald Glover.

Glow On
Regular price $29.00 Save $-29.00Recorded with producer Mike Elizondo and co-produced by Yates, Glow On follows Turnstile's 2018 album Time & Space, which saw the Baltimore. MD band charting new ground for hardcore, expanding stylistic boundaries and celebrating new possibilities. With Glow On that utopic vision is fully realized; 15 tracks devoid of borders, boundaries, or entry obstacles, only abundant imagination, heart, and grooves plucked from all corners of the musical spectrum. Glow On includes the singles "Holiday," "Mystery," "No Surprise," and "T.L.C. (Turnstile Love Connection)" from Turnstile's recent Turnstile Love Connection EP and companion short film. Glow On also includes guest features from Blood Orange on "Alien Love Call," "Lonely Dezires," with additional vocal contributions on "Endless."
For Emma Forever Ago
Regular price $25.00 Save $-25.00Weezer (Blue Album)
Regular price $32.00 Save $-32.00Weezer doesn't look like rock stars, its amusing name doesn't evoke stadium-heights glories, and the group's lyrics don't exude confidence or flash. For precisely these reasons, and the fact that the band's songs on their Ric Ocasek-produced 1994 self-titled debut are the stuff of air-guitar dreams and shout-it-out choruses, the quartet became ironic arena-rock stars equally celebrated by in-the-know hipsters and mainstream radio listeners.
Underdogs and misfits, Weezer emerged from Los Angeles, CA as nerdy kids that eschewed traditional party-hard ways in favor of studying Kiss records, engaging in conversations about old LPs, and playing Dungeons and Dragons. The band's awkwardness joyfully translates in the songs on their debut, largely concerned with jealous insecurities, pop culture, true-to-life heartbreak, common accidents, youthful misconceptions, and daydreaming.
Replete with urgent melodies, quirky confessional narratives, wry humor, and gargantuan hooks, Weezer (Blue Album) remains the best geek-rock record ever made. More than three-times platinum, the Blue Album claims an iconic cover that pays tribute to that of the Feelies' Crazy Rhythms. The picture – as well as the bubblegum-inspired content within – has become an indelible part of modern culture. And "My Name Is Jonas," "Say It Ain't So," "Buddy Holly," and "Undone (The Sweater Song)" are all modern classics.

NFR
Regular price $48.00 Save $-48.00Grammy-nominated for Album of the Year and Song of the Year ("Norman Fucking Rockwell"), Norman F---ing Rockwell! is the sixth studio album by Lana Del Rey and follow-up to 2017's Lust For Life. The 14-track collection was largely produced and co-written with frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff (St Vincent, Taylor Swift, Lorde) while Rick Nowels and Zach Dawes also make contributions.
Del Rey teased new material for over a year, releasing a few stand-alone singles including "Venice Bitch," "Mariners Apartment Complex" and "Hope Is A Dangerous Thing For A Woman Like Me To Have – But I Have It," plus a cover of Sublime's "Doin Time" for the band's 2019 documentary.
The singer notes that the album is, "in the vein of a Laurel Canyon sound. And it's kind of transformed a little bit because there's some surf elements to some of the songs – it's not really surfy like Dick Dale but a lot of electric guitar, a little Red Hot Chili Peppers influence in there." The pulp-inspired pop art cover was shot by young sister Caroline 'Chuck' Grant and features the torch singer embracing actor Duke Nicholson in front of a painted backdrop.

Demon Days
Regular price $45.00 Save $-45.00Co-produced by Danger Mouse, Demon Days (2005) is the double platinum-certified second studio offering from the world's most famous virtual hip-hop group. The brainchild of Blur's Damon Albarn and Tank Girl co-creator Jamie Hewlett, the animated cast of characters from its innovative 2001 predecessor return - 2D (vocals), Murdoc (bass), Noodle (guitar/keyboards) and Russel Hobbs (drums) - alongside guests like De La Soul, Ike Turner, Dennis Hopper, MF Doom, Shaun Ryder, Neneh Cherry, Bootie Brown and the London Community Gospel Choir. Home to the catchy and cinematic singles "Feel Good Inc.," "Dare" and "Dirty Harry," New York's Paper called the album a "work of conceptual art that's as fulfilling to listen to as it is enjoyable to look at...more melodic, free-flowing and sharper-edged than on its predecessor."

Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
Regular price $25.00 Save $-25.00Vinyl LP pressing. This debut emerged as one of the most influential rap albums of the '90s. It laid the groundwork for the rebirth of New York hip-hop, an underground, hardcore new sound that went on to influence Biggie, Jay-Z, Nas, and Mobb Deep, among others. Rap became at once theatrical and cerebral, MCs lyricists and powerhouses capable of violence, metaphor, humor and revolution in their performing. The album is full of hard, gritty beats, references to pop culture and martial arts, eclectic piano and string sounds, as well as surrealist overtones, and there truly was nothing like it in the hip-hop world at the time. Even now, it's an original album in a league of it's own. Get it. You won't regret it.

1989 (Taylor's Version) (Deluxe Edition, Bonus Tracks, Light Blue Vinyl, Photos / Photo Cards)
Regular price $45.00 Save $-45.00The 1989 album changed my life in countless ways, and it fills me with such excitement to announce that my version of it will be out October 27th. To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I’ve ever done because the 5 From The Vault tracks are so insane. I can’t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long!
The Queen is Dead
Regular price $29.00 Save $-29.00It's pretty safe to say that most view The Queen Is Dead as the best full-length studio effort ever offered by the Smiths. It arrived in June of 1986 to a rapturous critical reception and its reputation has remained consistent ever since, with "There is a Light That Never Goes Out" in particular having gone on to be seen as a stone-cold classic even by those who aren't full-fledged Smiths fans. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to find a publication on either side of the pond that doesn't acknowledge it as one of the greatest albums of the whole decade, thanks to songs like the dance-hall fun of "Frankly, Mr. Shankly," the impeccably depressing two-fer of "I Know It's Over" and "Never Had No One Ever," the jangly fun of "Cemetry Gates," and even the silliness of "Vicar in a Tutu."

In Utero
Regular price $35.00 Save $-35.00To say that Nirvana's third and ultimately final studio album In Utero was 1993's most polarizing record would be the understatement of a decade. The unadorned sonic rawness of Steve Albini's recording laid bare every primal nuance of the most confrontational yet vulnerable material Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl would ever record. And with its 1991 predecessor Nevermind having sold some 30 million copies, single-handedly returning honest rock 'n' roll to the top of the pop charts, In Utero was essentially the first record Nirvana would make with any expectations from the public.
So from the opening quasi-shamble melodics of "Serve The Servants" through the bittersweet closing strains of "All Apologies," In Utero was the sound of the most incredible yet conflicted rock ‘n' roll band of the era at the peak of its powers coming to terms with a generational spokes-band mantle they'd never seen coming - and ultimately surmounting these struggles to make the record they needed to make. As Rolling Stone's David Fricke said in his review at the time, "In Utero is a lot of things - brilliant, corrosive, enraged and thoughtful, most of them all at once. But more than anything, it's a triumph of the will."
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers-Greatest Hits
Regular price $45.00 Save $-45.00Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers Greatest Hits on 180g 2LP
It's been 40 years since Tom Petty and his extraordinary band, The Heartbreakers, unleashed their eponymous debut. In the subsequent decades, Petty - both as a solo artist and as leader of the band - has sold over 80 million records worldwide, earned 18 Grammy nods and has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Petty's musical integrity and craft, not to mention his seemingly effortless flair for rapturous hooks, have remained constant despite ever-shifting musical trends, and his multi-generational fan base continues to swell. In the words of Rolling Stone's Alan Light, "The man's consistency is pretty astounding."
That signature craft and consistency is on full display throughout Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers' generous 19-track Greatest Hits compilation which lingered on Billboard's Top 200 album chart for a staggering six years following its original release in 1993. Gathering definitive material from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (1976) through to Into the Great Wide Open (1991), Greatest Hits is as true a can't miss as they come. The collection also included two new cuts with the hit single "Mary Jane's Last Dance" and an excellent cover of Thunderclap Newman's "Something in the Air."

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band-50th Anniversary
Regular price $43.00 Save $-43.00Produced by Giles Martin for 2017's universally heralded Sgt. Pepper Anniversary Edition releases, the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band's new stereo mix on this QRP-pressed 180g vinyl LP is sourced directly from the original four-track session tapes and guided by the original, Beatles-preferred mono mix produced by Giles' father, George Martin. Praised by fans and music critics around the world, The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper Anniversary Edition is 2017's most celebrated historical music release and an ideal gift for Beatle people here, there, and everywhere!
It was just over 50 years ago when The Beatles' astonished and delighted the world, ushering in the Summer of Love with Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, a groundbreaking masterwork that became popular music's most universally acclaimed album. "It's crazy to think that 50 years later we are looking back on this project with such fondness and a little bit of amazement at how four guys, a great producer and his engineers could make such a lasting piece of art," says Paul McCartney. "Sgt. Pepper seemed to capture the mood of that year, and it also allowed a lot of other people to kick off from there and to really go for it," Ringo Starr adds.
Features:
• 180-gram vinyl LP pressed at QRP
• 2017 stereo mix produced by Giles Martin for Sgt. Pepper Anniversary Edition
• Sourced directly from the original four-track session tapes and guided by the original, Beatles-preferred mono mix produced by Giles' father, George Martin
Fine Line
Regular price $40.00 Save $-40.00English singer/songwriter Harry Styles follows-up his platinum-certified, No. 1 charting 2017 solo debut with his highly anticipated second album, Fine Line. The pop star describes the album as being "all about having sex and feeling sad" and that the creative process was inspired by taking mushrooms and listening to Paul McCartney's Ram. The 12-track collection is introduced by the shimmering lead single "Lights Up" which was co-produced by Tyler Johnson and Kid Harpoon (aka Tom Hull).
"'Fine Line' feels like another confident exercise in Harry Styles' ongoing genre cross-over. It's a maturation from his debut that feels free from the weight of expectation. It bruises, broods and unshackles itself in all the right places, successfully taking us to the place most of it came to be: by that kinetic Californian coastline, coloured by the cool psychedelia its creator has fallen hopelessly in love with" (Vice).
The album's artwork features a fisheye photo of Styles taken by English fashion photographer Tim Walker.
The Lumineers
Regular price $29.00 Save $-29.00Vinyl LP pressing. In 2011, an eponymous, self-recorded EP led to touring, and before long The Lumineers started attracting devout fans. They're drawn by songs like "Ho Hey" and "Stubborn Love," Americana-inflected barn burners in the vein of the Avett Brothers and Mumford & Sons. The roots revival of the last few yeas has primed listeners for a new generation of rustic, heart-on-the-sleeve music. The Lumineers walk that line with an unerring gift for timeless melodies and soul-stirring lyrics.
