Earth A.D.
Regular price $32.00 Save $-32.00Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood is the last album released by American horror punk band Misfits to feature founding member and lead vocalist, Glenn Danzig. Danzig released it on his Plan 9 label in December 1983, two months after he played his last concert with the band. It was noticeably harder and faster than their previous releases, showing more of a hardcore punk sound. Since it's release it has often been referred to as simply "Earth A.D." amongst fans. Originally released as a 9 song LP, it was later issued with the three tracks of the Die, Die My Darling EP incorporated into the track listing: "Die, Die My Darling", "Mommy, Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?" and "We Bite". Glenn Danzig has said that the tracks "Bloodfeast" and "Death Comes Ripping" were originally intended for Samhain's first release, but were added to what would be the Misfits' final record in a last-ditch effort to save the band. Metallica covered "Die, Die My Darling" for their 1998 cover album Garage Inc, as well as "Green Hell", which was originally covered by Metallica for their 1987 album, Garage Days Re-Revisited, as part of a medley with "Last Caress". British extreme metal band Cradle of Filth covered "Death Comes Ripping" for their 1999 release From the Cradle to Enslave.
I,I
Regular price $33.00 Save $-33.00i,i is Bon Iver's most expansive, joyful and generous album to date. If For Emma, Forever Ago was the crisp, heart-strung isolation of a northern Winter; Bon Iver the rise and whirr of burgeoning Spring; and 22, A Million, a blistering, "crazy energy" Summer record, i,i completes the cycle: a fall record; Autumn-colored, ruminative, steeped. The autumn of Bon Iver is a celebration of self acceptance and gratitude, bolstered by community and delivering the bounty of an infinite American music.
The sales and accolades are well-known - multiple Gold albums, multiple Grammys, chart-topping collaborations and festival headlines. But even more significantly, with each release Bon Iver quietly shifts the state of modern music. From the boundaries of folk, to the rules of autotune, to production work for others, Bon Iver's fingerprint finds its way across the mainstream every time. Justin Vernon has always been a master collaborator, and on i,i that desire becomes maximal, with guests ranging from Moses Sumney and Bruce Hornsby to Wye Oak's Jenn Wasner and the Brooklyn Youth Chorus.
Here, the music - and band, and themes, and creative space - are bigger than ever!
Pawn Shop
Regular price $25.00 Save $-25.00Brothers Osborne Pawn Shop on LP
Years before they climbed the country charts with songs like "Stay a Little Longer" and "Rum," the Brothers Osborne grew up in Deale, Maryland, a small fishing town on the Atlantic seaboard. It was a cozy place, filled with blue-collar workers who made their living on the water. During the weekends, many of those workers would head over to the Osborne household, where a series of loose, all-night jam sessions filled the Maryland air with the sounds of Bob Seger, Hank Williams, Tom Petty and George Jones.
The Osborne siblings strummed their first chords during those jam sessions. From the very start, TJ Osborne was the brother with the voice. He sang in a thick, low baritone, crooning like Johnny Cash long before he was even old enough to drive. Older brother John, on the other hand, was the family's guitar shredder, his fingers capable of down-home bluegrass licks, arena-worthy rock riffs, country twang, and everything in between. Combined, the two Osbornes could play everything from traditional country music to rock & roll, creating a broad, full-bodied sound that would eventually fill the 11 songs on their major-label debut, Pawn Shop.
Like its title suggests, Pawn Shop offers a little bit of everything. There's bluesy slide guitar, country duets, southern rock solos, harmonies, and plenty of groove. The hooks are big, the guitars are loud, and the songs – every last one of them co-written by the Osbornes, who reached out to award-winning songwriters like Shane McAnally and Ross Copperman for help – introduce a duo whose music bridges the gap between the mainstream and the alternative world. Some songs were written at home in Nashville, while others came together on the road, where the guys spent several years headlining their own club shows, touring the country with Darius Rucker, and playing some of the biggest arenas in America with fellow rule-breaker Eric Church.
"Most duos are built on singing," says TJ "But John is an incredible guitar player, and this band is built on me singing and John playing guitar. It gives us two parallels that work nicely together." "It's like an old-school rock approach," adds John, who cites classic bands like Aerosmith and the Allman Brothers as influences on the duo's dynamic. "Groups like that always had the lead singer as well as the sideman guitar player. That's what we're going for, too. We're carving our own path in country music."
That unique path has already led the band toward the upper half of the country charts. "Rum" got them there first, mixing the feel-good sunshine of a beach tune with a far more realistic storyline. There's no actual beach in "Rum," after all. Instead, Brothers Osborne turn the song into a tribute to the simple pleasures that their Maryland hometown offers: friends, good weather, and the occasional drink. They even filmed the song's music video in Deale, filling the clip with footage of friends, relatives, and locals.
A similar theme runs throughout "Dirt Rich" and "Pawn Shop," two songs that stress the importance of appreciating what you've got. Pawn Shop dishes up plenty of love songs, too, from "Loving Me Back" – an old-school country duet featuring vocals from Lee Ann Womack – to "Stay a Little Longer," the band's biggest hit to date. While a three-minute guitar solo brings "Stay a Little Longer" to an epic, anthemic close, Brothers Osborne also devote time to more laid-back songs, from the nostalgic California country of "21 Summer" to the 420-friendly "Greener Pastures."
Brothers Osborne, who co-produced the album with Jay Joyce (the award-winning producer behind Little Big Town's Painkiller, Eric Church's The Outsiders, and Carrie Underwood's Storyteller), recorded most of Pawn Shop during breaks in their busy touring schedule, using members of their own touring band rather than session musicians from the Nashville community. The result is an album that's stamped with the unmistakable mark of a band. It doesn't sound like two singers, flanked by anonymous players.
Instead, it sounds like a group of road warriors who've spent years sharing bus seats and hotel rooms, creating the sort of chemistry that can't be faked. Pawn Shop is both raw and real, and Brothers Osborne – who, years after those household jam sessions in Deale, now have a handful of nationwide tours under their belts, songs on the charts, and a career on the rise – are no longer a family secret.

Regular price $24.00 Save $-24.00Open Up And Say Ahh
Regular price $32.00 Save $-32.00Kiss legend Paul Stanley was originally in talks to produce Poison's second album, Open Up And Say... Ahh!, but due to his heavy schedule, Tom Werman (Ted Nugent, Cheap Trick) oversaw the sessions. Released in 1988, the album went supernova commercially, peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 (behind Bon Jovi's New Jersey) and eventually sold over 8 million copies worldwide. It also yielded four major hit singles with "Nothin' But A Good Time," "Fallen Angel," the Loggins-and-Messina-penned "Your Mama Don't Dance" and (to date) the band's only American No. 1, "Every Rose Has Its Thorn," a memorable power ballad with just a dash of country detectable in Bret Michaels' emotive vocal delivery. The album's infectious metal/hard rock sound was ideal for mainstream consumption in the wake of Guns N' Roses' similarly massive-selling Appetite For Destruction. Gatefold colored 180g vinyl LP reissue from Friday Music, mastered by Joe Reagoso.
Pink Cadillac (Brick & Mortar Exclusive)
Regular price $24.00 Save $-24.00Among the English language's premier phrase-turners with music relevant to any age, the late great John Prine was part of the Atlantic Records family for four signature albums before he jumped over to Asylum for another three records and eventually his own label Oh Boy. 1979's Pink Cadillac, Prine's pivotal sixth studio effort overall and second for Asylum, found the singer/songwriter recording at Sam Phillips' Memphis studio with the Sun Records' founder's sons Knox and Jerry (Sam even came out of retirement to produce two tracks himself). An eclectic mix of rock & roll and country split evenly between originals and covers, the raw and entertaining affair exhibits glimpses of that beloved "Sun Sound." "That was when Steely Dan and the Eagles were at the top of charts with records that were squeaky clean, and I wanted to make a record with some noise," Prine told Uncut. "I wanted people to hear chairs squeaking and things banging around, like you'd just walked into somebody's basement and there's a band playing."
Retrospective: The Best of Buffalo Springfield
Regular price $28.00 Save $-28.00When Canadian transplants Neil Young and Bruce Palmer intersected with Stephen Stills, Richie Furay and Dewey Martin on the Sunset Strip in 1966, one of the truly great Los Angeles bands was born: Buffalo Springfield. Taking their name from a steamroller they'd seen parked on a street, the quintet emerged as folk-rock/country-rock leaders during their tumultuous two-year existence. Before playing its final show on May 5, 1968, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers released three studio albums on ATCO during an intense, creative burst. Atlantic Records presents a 180g vinyl LP pressing of the first Buffalo Springfield compilation, Retrospective: The Best of Buffalo Springfield. Originally released in 1969, the 12-track collection features "For What It's Worth" and other singles from the band's three albums Buffalo Springfield (1966), Buffalo Springfield Again (1967) and Last Time Around (1968).

Are We Not Men? We Are Devo!
Regular price $27.00 Save $-27.00Produced by Brian Eno, 1978's Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! was a seminal touchstone in the development of American new wave. It was one of the first pop albums to use synthesizers as an important textural element, an innovation that began to lay the groundwork for the synth-pop explosion that would follow. Q: Are We Not Men also revived the absurdist social satire of the Mothers of Invention, claiming punk rock's outsider alienation as a home for freaks and geeks. While Devo's appeal was certainly broader, their sound was tailored well enough to that sensibility that it still resonates with a rabid cult following. The album featured some of Devo's most memorable work with "Uncontrollable Urge," the incredible cover of "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," "Mongoloid" and "Jocko Homo."

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Regular price $27.00 Save $-27.00Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers - hailing from Gainesville, FL before officially forming in Los Angeles, CA - kicked the musical doldrums of the mid-70's in the teeth with their 1976 self-titled debut album. It featured a stripped-down-but-accomplished brand of rock that blended jumpy rhythm & blues with ringing guitars and keyboards, over which frontman Tom Petty offered up disarmingly blunt lyrics and an extremely direct and distinct vocal style. Still, it took America a full year to catch up to the album. "Breakdown" was re-released to radio and became a Top 40 hit in 1977 after word filtered back that the band was creating a firestorm over in England. By the end of their pivotal UK trek, the band was headlining the very same venues they played as an opening act weeks earlier. Also includes the timeless rock staple "American Girl."

Either/Or (INDIE EXCLUSIVE, CLEAR RED VINYL)
Regular price $30.00 Save $-30.00The highly acclaimed Either/Or, the third album from Elliott Smith and his last written and recorded in Portland, OR, broke through to a larger international audience. With richer instrumentation and songs that push past the boundaries of his previous releases, Either/Orpresents Smith at his most dichotomous. Through its dozen tracks, the album oscillates between harmony and dissonance, sentiment and cynicism, culminating in a record that is unmistakably and unabashedly “Elliott Smith”. The final chapter of his first period as a solo artist, Either/Or remains a cornerstone of folk/pop melancholia with aftershocks felt to this day.

U.F.O.F.
Regular price $29.00 Save $-29.00U.F.O.F. is the highly anticipated third record by Big Thief and their first on 4AD. U.F.O.F. was recorded in rural western Washington at Bear Creek Studios. In a large cabin-like room, the band set up their gear to track live with engineer Dom Monks and producer Andrew Sarlo, who was also behind their previous albums. Having already lived these songs on tour, they were relaxed and ready to experiment. The raw material came quickly. Some songs were written only hours before recording and stretched out instantly, first take, vocals and all. Others were explored in search of perfected moments of dynamic feedback and spiritual, rhythmic togetherness. A careful New Age sprinkle of mystical textures and stabs was added and kept in the mix only when all agreed that each element had become absolutely crucial to the tune. The completed palette feels classic, upfront and honest, with an occasional, welcome glimpse into the magic box. "Making friends with the unknown...All my songs are about this," says Adrianne Lenker (guitar, vocals). "If the nature of life is change and impermanence, I'd rather be uncomfortably awake in that truth than lost in denial."
