amid the old wounds floppy disk and mira 7″

amid the old wounds - lend me forever floppy disk
amid the old wounds - lend me forever floppy disk
mira - s/t 7" + CD

during preparation of some wishes on a plane re/releases I unearthed this 3 track demo song presumably recorded sometime november/december 2004. I’ve given this to a compilation before but wanted it to have a physical release too, so I made some floppy disks in spraypainted guitar string envelopes which I will randomly throw in with orders or distribute to other places while supplies last. I ran out of envelopes now but will make more copies in the future. physical copies are meant to be name-your-price benefitting my friend franz @ koenichsound, who has been a constant supporter of amid the old wounds since day one, please consider supporting him by buying a download of the song or our collaborative project ‘their something borrowed, glory’ from his bandcamp

furthermore I received some copies of the beautiful
mira 7″
it’s a one-sided 7″ with music by members of manku kapak, kubiak, they sleep we live and ilill, includes a zine with lyrics and a CD-R with the same songs. hefty elaborate packaging with wood/lino-cut covers

While “We Are Passing” was, in vocalist Chloe June’s words, a song “about trans feelings: what it feels like to be closeted, what it feels like to be scared of coming out, and the feeling of finally coming out,” “You Weren’t Ready” is about  “the feeling of watching a loved one lose a loved one,” and it tells the story in gripping, cinematic detail that leaves you hanging on every word.

chalk hands - burrows & other hideouts 7"

following their highly praised debut LP from early 2022  we are proud to provide well deserved vinyl treatment to chalk hands’ first ever release, their 2-song EP “burrows & other hideouts”

“Filled with melodic, emotionally settling/unsettling (yes, they do both), clean indie riffs, these four musical geniuses from Brighton are quick to give you an aneurysm with their spastic and drastic changes of instrumental build ups into cataclysmic and passionate gang vocals.” (new noise magazine)

this is a collaborative release with left hand label in the UK and clever eagle records in the US, so if that’s where you’re based consider buying from them. the record will release on september 14th and will ship in time to be with you that day

new records by least, showbread, floorbird, turquoise, eugenius, wet tropics

I received some records from the US from friend club records, most of these are kinda hard to come by over here in europe and I only got small quantities

On a quite important sidenote German Post is reconstructing their policies, so smaller orders including LPs can no longer be sent through media mail. There are some petitions trying to fight this, but it seems from july postage prices for orders of single or few LPs will increase drastically. This is out of my hands, so if you want to order just an LP or two please do so today or tomorrow. cheers

least – folding my hands, accepting defeat LP
“Folding My Hands, Accepting Defeat is about finally giving into my gender dysphoria. It’s about my darkest moments as a trans person stuck in the closet, but also the revelation of figuring out that it’s possible to move forward and live a fulfilling life.” – Taylin Willis

showbread – cancer LP
Cancer, Showbread’s latest studio outing, follows the story of a downtrodden and rebellious rock icon of a protagonist as he attempts to use a punk rock band to lead a revolt against inter-dimensional fascists called “The Principalities” in a not-so-distant American future.

floorbird – fall apart anywhere LP
Floorbird channel’s the best of Dashboard Confessional, The Maine and Cartel into a glowing polished embrace that is sure to warm your heart

turquoise – fermented fruit LP
Fermented Fruit is an eight song journey laced with debauchery that bounces along with a joy and passion rarely heard.

eugenius – midlife 2xLP
dark, aggressive hip hop, a chaotic, angular and melancholic soundtrack to the enlightening, and sometimes isolating, act of reaching the midpoint of life.

wet tropics – everybody get in LP
Wet Tropics  has the Gen-X slacker charm firmly in place, but it’s also hotwired with key elements of garage rock, power pop, and post-punk

Continuing to build upon the hook laden, guitar driven indie rock  “We Can’t Be Magic” adds to its sonic repertoire  with layered pop structures, a stronger focus on vocal arrangements to slower tempos and even “quieter” moments
 
groupie – ephemeral LP
A glorious and riotous amalgam of Patti Smith, Roxy Music, Velvet Underground, Bikini Kill, and The Raincoats
 
lacing – bummer CD
The mind-bending, bone-shaking debut album Bummer from the Chattanooga quartet LACING starts in the realm of shoegaze, taking influence from legendary bands such as My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive
 
lacing – without CD (restock)
Dreamy, heavy shoegaze with dramatic post-rock swells and nuanced noisy outbursts. Ethereal vocals compliment the icy clean guitar lines in a series of swirling waves before the storm of dark hooks and trembling discord.

International postage rates increase
Sadly german post reorganizes the entire media mail system, so from june this year new dimension limits apply, which will sadly make it impossible to ship 10″ and LP records as cheap as I have for the last 15 years. They will have to ship as packages, which cost significantly more. I will slowly implement the new shipping method into the shop system, and the old one will be shut off once german post deceases it. So if you are considering placing a small order including LPs, do so before june!
