Record Highlight — Ray Wylie Hubbard
Packing 10 brand new songs into just under 34 minutes, The Ruffian’s Misfortune is the tightest and most focused record of Hubbard’s career — it also happens to be his first record pressed on vinyl in more than 30 years! You can pre-order an autographed copy now!
Record Highlight — Fight Amp
Philadelphia, PA noise rock powerhouse Fight Amputation have returned with their first new record in three years, entitled Constantly Off. Set for release on June 9th, Constantly Off was recorded in August 2014 at Gradwell House Studios in Haddon Heights, NJ with engineer Steve Poponi (Ladder Devils, Fight Amp). You can pre-order one of three limited variants from Brutal Panda Records now.
Record Highlight — Sam Cohen
Cool It, Sam Cohen’s solo debut, is an extension of the kaleidoscopic terrain evident on previous projects, but where those records rested blissfully in the sonic ether. Available very soon from the Easy Sound Recording Company.
Record Highlight — Seluah

Seluah embarks on 2015 with its second full-length, “Phase III.” Using longtime collaborator Kevin Ratterman’s new dream studio, the band conjured stark, foreboding imagery on perhaps its most lurid venture yet. As is especially true with “Nanon,” Phase III depicts a darkly hypnotic world you can’t help but feel drawn to visit more than once. Available from Karate Body Records.
Record Highlight – J. Allen
J. Allen’s songs are folk songs written inside the whirlwind that is NewYork City… country hymns tuned in to the traffic hum and the subway rumble.
His forthcoming singles, “Bring Her Back Home” and “Fall Out of Love” mark a turn from the atmospheric, indie-folk aesthetic of his previous work to a more traditional American palette, as well as a renewed collaboration with Alan Weatherhead (A Camp, Sparklehorse) as mixer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist. “Bring Her Back Home” is available now as a limited edition 7inch.
Record Highlight — The Chloes
The Chloes are an American rock band formed in 2010, started as a jam project between the lead singer and songwriter April Wenzel and bass player Brandie Dawson in Dallas, TX. They started playing live at the local act launch venue, LBG. Popularity for their live show grew and they’ve played to audiences across major clubs in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, OKC and Tulsa including the Norman Music Festival, SXSW and with touring acts such as BRONCHO, The Screaming Females, Shannon and the Clams, and The Coathangers.
Their latest LP — No Filter — is available now!
Record Highlight — A House Safe For Tigers
Indie duo A House Safe for Tigers has released its self-titled debut album through Headless Actor Records.
Borrowing its name from an obscure Lee Hazlewood soundtrack, A House Safe for Tigers has garnered accolades for its reflective, haunting, yet melodious songcraft. In theory, the pairing of vocalist/songwriter Mark Costantino and multi-instrumentalist Brandon Delmont shouldn’t work. The two musicians come from seemingly disparate backgrounds. Costantino’s last group, The Exit Strategy, earned praise for its raw, post-hardcore recordings and sweat-soaked live performances. In its review, Pitchfork singled out Costantino’s vocals for “adding a youthful, spirited feel to the tracks.” Meanwhile, Delmont earned his stripes as the drummer for Mercury Rev side project Odiorne, a synth-heavy, symphonic-rock group that recorded with famed producer Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, Sparklehorse, MGMT).
While owing a debt to some past performers, A House Safe for Tigers has captured something original and compelling on its debut. Songs like “Ann Marie,” “Searchlights,” and the lead-off single “Evaporate,” are aural delights-memorable and contagious, while bearing fruit with each new listen.
