PERHAPS 7.0' LP COMING THIS MARCH
STREAM NOW VIA IT'S PSYCHEDELIC BABY MAGAZINE Boston's PERHAPS return with their seventh album '7.0' on March 27th via Riot Season. Once again it's a spaced out psychedelic wonder, but at the same time pretty hard to define genre wise. But if you enjoyed 'V' and 'Hexagon' be prepared to be enthralled once again. Limited edition pressing of 300 copies all on white vinyl in a reverse board printed outer sleeve. This album features guest appearances from our old friends Makoto Kawabata (Acid Mothers Temple / Mainliner), Chang Chang (Hibushibire) and Isaiah Mitchell (Earthless) " ... My stint with the cosmic beings through the telekinetic transmission had lead to one conclusion; that Perhaps have been in the works on something new. It seems as if they may have landed on the result which Haney had mentioned years ago. Through my continued interest I’ve procured the names of other members of this current project, which include: Sean Mcdermott, Tom Weeks, Ricky Petraglia, David Khoshtinat, Ben Talmi, Makoto Kawabata, Lucas Brode, Isaiah Mitchell, Olivia Kieffer, Tyler Skoglund, ChangChang. Though I can’t say exactly what is to come, it seems as if the ideas that were proposed during my initial meet may have been surpassed. Perhaps’ plans have begun to surface, and we are all at risk, for whatever that means. The great column and the vibrational prismic beings have shifted their attention to earthly matters, it would be foolhardy to not heed their warning. Though, self-preservation may be an impossibility" PRE ORDER NOW VIA THE LABEL WEBSHOP OR BANDCAMP THE NOISE BIRDS 'THE DARK SEA HIDES A BRIGHT LIGHT' LP COMING THIS MARCH

spot, these songs ebb and flow as the players communicate without
words, focused on working together with the goal of taking the music
as far in, and out, as possible. This is music as speech, as

themselves as one, presented here for everyone else to hear and

PRE ORDER NOW VIA THE LABEL WEBSHOP OR BANDCAMP OZO 'SATURN' LP OUT NOW

Formed from the ashes of Drunk In Hell
and Blown Out, OZO are a blazing improvised alto sax free jazz rock

Hell) and Mike Vest. (Drunk In Hell, BONG, 11Paranoias, Melting
Hand)
For fans of Pharaoh Sanders, John and
Alice Coltrane. Improvised and experimental alto sax workouts, lead
drums, fluid thunder bass and freak out guitar melodies. OZO Saturn
is 5 tracks of black impulse meets harmonic stooges.
MIKE VEST TALKING ABOUT OZO
“I’ve been waiting to start a band
with Graham Thompson and Karl D Silva. Karl used to play Sax in the
Drunks (Drunk In Hell) and Graham is amazing drummer who plays in
lots of bands. He can play everything and is really great at
production and mixing. Couple of bands fell apart or just became
unproductive, so I moved on, like I did. Graham’s drum track were
so good and alive that I came up with the idea to have him leading
the tracks. Added bass line and asked Karl to blast through in one
take. The results came back and it sounded awesome. So here we
are.”

KUNGENS MÄN 'HART SOM BEN' LP OUT NOW
Delighted to announce a new album by our
Swedish friends Kungens Man is at the pressing plant, and due for
release on November 29th.
The album will be available in two
variants, at the same price. There's a black vinyl edition in a
black and pink sleeve, and a pink vinyl edition in a pink and black
sleeve. Both come with a printed inner sleeve and download code.
Both are limited to exactly the same amount.
Nine months after their acclaimed album
'Chef' (also released on Riot Season) the band return with 'Hårt
Som Ben’, a stunning follow up with a debut UK tour to coincide.
Echoes And Dust on ‘Chef’: “From
pure psychedelic freak out, to exploratory ramblings, and all imbued
with a sense of communal priority to create together a work of
immense intelligence, Chef is an album which begs for continued
listens and deep immersion. That it is so accessible too, makes that
genius shine through even more so. Superb.”
At the end of May 2019 Kungens Män
packed a couple of cars full of instruments and life supporting
essentials and drove into the woods of Värmland to spend three days
in the legendary Silence Studio. It has hosted recordings by bands
and musicians like Bo Hansson, Motorpsycho, The Hellacopters, Bob
Hund and Union Carbide Productions, the presence felt and seen all
over the place.
In between watching VHS tapes with Twin
Peaks, Miles Davis and Roskilde Festival 92, cooking pasta, sleeping
in bunk beds, Bruce Bannering shirts and chilling in the sun,
Kungens Män managed to record about 13 hours of music. Some of it
will never reach your ears, but here’s the first slab made public
– Hårt som ben – Hard As Bone. Not very hard, that is.

ORDER NOW VIA THE LABEL WEBSHOP OR BANDCAMP SHIT AND SHINE 'DOING DRUGS, SELLING DRUGS' LP OUT NOW
Fifteen
years and forty releases into their career, Shit And Shine return to 'Doing Drugs, Selling Drugs' is nasty. To my ears it's a perfect mash up of those classic ealry S*S albums, and Craig's more recent dirge rock explorations with USA/Mexico. It's a one of pressings on transparent green vinyl with download code.
SHIT AND SHINE IN MANCHESTER

ORDER NOW VIA THE LABEL WEBSHOP OR BANDCAMP LA GRANDE ARMÉE 'LA GRANDE ARMÉE' LP OUT NOW
Delighted to announce the debut release
by South American band La Grande Armée will be coming out on RS in
October. Limited edition 300 only white vinyl LP.
La Grande Armée is an instrumental band
that mixes psychedelic stoner and progressive rock inspired by blues
and instrumental rock & roll of the 70's, born in November 2017
in the commune of San Pedro de la Paz, VIII region, Republic of
Chile. I came across these guys purely by accident earlier this year
when their digital EP appeared on a post in a Facebook group i
follow. I liked it that much I got in touch with the band and
proposed a vinyl version for which they've remixed the EP and added
two extra new/live tracks to fill it out.

ORDER NOW VIA THE LABEL WEBSHOP OR BANDCAMP SITE ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE & THE MELTING PARAISO UFO 'MINSTREL IN THE GALAXY' LP OUT NOW * BLACK VINYL REPRESS NOW IN STOCK *
Way back in 2004, ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE
& THE MELTING PARAISO U.F.O. released the CD only album 'Minstrel
In The Galaxy' on Riot Season Records. The decision to make it CD only
at the time was down to the epic title track being almost 42 minutes
in length. Fast forward fifteen years and new technologies and we have
the first ever vinyl release of this classic album, with a new edited
especially for vinyl mix by main man Makoto Kawabata.
TARAS BULBA 'ONE' LP - OUT NOW
ORDER NOW VIA THE LABEL WEBSHOP OR BANDCAMP SITE Delighted to announce the debut album from TARAS BULBA, the new band formed out of the ashes of Earthling Society is coming out on RS next month ... Taras Bulba was formed in the winter of 2019 by Fred Laird and Jon Blacow. Taking a new direction from their last musical outfit Earthling Society, the duo embarked on an inner space mission for new age ideas, rhythmic mantras, ambient landscapes and creative micro dosing.
Recorded between September 2018 to May
2019 on home recording equipment in different houses and any empty
space large enough for a drum kit. A laptop dying with over worked
CPU and amps so broken that the only alternative was to record
straight into the desk. Working to a true DIY ethic like some
paranoid Philip K.Dick character with a tin foil antenna; piecing
together tracks created out of the ether like satellite messages
from some imaginary planet.
Taras Bulba – 1 is a pot-pouri of
Eastern/ Asian sounds, Krautrock Rhythms, ambient landscapes,
psychedelic blues and Orb inspired dub. Taking influences from
Midori Takada, Tony Scott, CAN, Neu!, 6 organs of Admittance, The
Orb and the soundtracks of David Lynch and Angelo Badalemnti.
Fred Laird – vox, electric, acoustic
and bass guitar, bouzouki, Alesis Micron, recorder, Tibetan bells,
Buddha box, harmonizer, drum programming, kalimba, hammer and
bolster, field recordings.
Jon Blacow – drums, gongs, darbuka, LP
congas, electronic tablas, Shamisen, ektara, electronic rhythms.
