    They set a blueprint for subsequent indie rock, the kind that valued DIY yet didn't shy away from melody, and addressed matters of the heart without arch distance.' Pitchfork

    'Half Japanese are no dictatorship - more an underground political movement, united in their love for Jad Fair's weird dismantling vision' The Wire

    Fire Records will be reissuing Half Japanese's "Boo!", capturing their 1992 European barnstorming tour, just in time for Halloween.

    The record features a removable mask (no strings attached!) designed by the one and only Jad Fair.

    Sold out

    Belfast four-piece Girls Names released their critically acclaimed second album, The New Life, in February and it marked a new direction for the band altogether. That directional shift is emphasized even further by a new limited edition 12" EP , entitled The Next Life.

    With the artwork making a playful nod to Bowie's latest record, it's not surprising that the EP should see the band experiment with the sonic make up of their last album. On the A side is a cover version of Brian Eno's 'Third Uncle'. Recorded in August of this year, it is the first recorded Girls Names track to feature new drummer Gib Cassidy and offers a telling glimpse at what creative steps the band may next take. On the flip are two incredible remixes of tracks taken from the sister record.

    The first is by producer/composer/dance don legend David Holmes, who lends a somewhat European elan to the titular track. The second sees Gabe Gurnsey from Factory Floor add his band's characteristic dance floor focus to Girls Names' motorik groove, turning in something that jitters and pulses in a manner befitting of any track attributed the Factory Floor moniker.

  • The Brian Jonestown Massacre 'Musique de film imaginé' - Cargo Records UK

    'a' Recordings

    The Brian Jonestown Massacre 'Musique de Film Imaginé'

    £7.99

    Musique de film imaginé (music for film imagined) is a soundtrack that pays homage to the great European film directors of the late 50's and 60's, such as Francois Truffaut & Jean-Luc Godard (to name but two), created by Anton Newcombe on behalf of the Brian Jonestown Massacre for an imaginary French film.

    Guests on this daring symphonic experience are French chanteuse and multi-instrumentalist SoKo and Italian actress, singer and director Asia Argento. SoKo is signed to Because Music and her track We Might Be Dead by Tomorrow'was featured in the viral video First Kiss', which has garnered over 63 million views and debuted at number 9 in the Billboard Hot 100 last year. Asia Argento, who has starred in music videos for Marilyn Manson, Placebo and Tim Burgess, recently wrote the storyline for ASAP Rocky's music video and short film Phoenix', which has had over 5.5 million hits. Both vocal performances are in French.

    Anton Newcombe recorded Musique de film imaginé in Berlin in August 2014, after a successful European tour for the Brian Jonestown Massacre.

    Anton says:

    'The album that you are about to hear is a soundtrack, my own creation, a tribute to great directors and filmmakers to an era that now seems to be behind us. Leaving the smart person to care to imagine that this art could now be in the shadow of its former glory. 'The interesting thing about this project is that the film does not exist either. Even so, I imagined and I realized its soundtrack... Now it's your turn, you are the listener to imagine the film.'

    Brian Jonestown Massacre returned last May with their 14th full-length album Revelation'to critical acclaim. It is the first album

    that was fully recorded and produced at Anton Newcombe's recording studio in Berlin and was released on his record label a recordings. Named in tribute to the legendary Rolling Stones guitarist and his influence in introducing Eastern culture and music into the world of Western rock & roll, Brian Jonestown Massacre formed in San Francisco, California in 1990. Two dozen band members later and numerous 'ups and downs' (some have been famously sensationalized in the media), the one thing that has always remained consistent for this psychedelic collective, is front man Mr. Anton Alfred Newcombe.

    The Brian Jonestown Massacre 'My Bloody Underground'

    £7.99

    <p>After  spending  time  writing  and  recording  in  Liverpool,  England  and  Reykjavik,  Iceland;  My  Bloody  Underground  will  be  the  thirteenth  fulllength  album  released  by  the  band,  set  for  release  on  <strong>Anton  Newcombe</strong>'s  own  record  label  a  recordings  thirteenth  time's  a  charm  for  a  band  who's  name  a  portmanteau  of  the  original  and  founding  member  of  The  Rolling  Stones'  Brian  Jones  and  the  infamous  mass  cult  suicide  at  Jonestown,  Guyana  in  1978.  <br><br>Fans  and  critics  of  Brian  Jonestown  Massacre  who  have  eagerly  awaited  a  new  album  for  a  little  over  4  years  now  will  not  be  disappointed  with  its  musical  content,  quality  and  controversy  to  follow. The  opening  track  titled  Bring  Me  The  Head  Of  Paul  MCCartney  On  Heather  Mill's  Wooden  Peg  (Dropping  Bombs  On  The  White  House)  begins  and  soars  into  an  echoing  wave  of  tambourines  and  trancelike  acoustics,  that  continues  for  12  more  tracks  and  75.87  minutes,  stirring  visions  of  sunny  Californian  communes  to  New  York  City  bars  on  the  Lower  East  Side.  From  Rishikesh  to  Reykjavik,  the  entire  album  provides  provocative  glimpses  into  Anton  Newcombe's  head,  both  the  darkness  and  the  light,  so  clearly  and  so  beautifully  selfproduced. A  man  and  artist  many  are  eager  to  dismiss  as  obnoxious  and  unworthy  of  the  attention  he  receives.  Others  however,  deem  him  simply  as  vulnerable  in  this  world  he  roams  and  hugely  misunderstood  whilst  doing  so.  Like  many  prolific  and  artistic  madmen  before  his  and  our  time,  dare  we  sum  all  of  the  above  and  categorize  Newcombe  as  a  one  of  the  musical  geniuses  of  our  time? Maybe  it's  too  early  or  controversial  to  say,  but  tracks  from  My  Bloody  Underground  are  certainly  good  indications  whether  such  a  characteristic  is  worthy  of  his  nature.  We  Are  The  Niggers  Of  The  World  (track  4)  is  a  song  Anton  wrote  when  he  was  just  9  years  old,  you  can  decide  for yourself.

    The Brian Jonestown Massacre 'Thank God For Mental Illness'

    £7.99

    Available on 180 grm vinyl.

    At the risk of further labouring a rather obvious point, with Thank God for Mental Illness, their third collection of absolutely stunning music in 1996, the Brian Jonestown Massacre parallels the prolific and effortless brilliance of the Rolling Stones at their fevered late-1960s peak; the sheer scope of their achievements is stunning, rarely are bands quite so productive, or quite so consistently amazing.

    Thank God is the BJM's down-and-dirty country-blues outing, all 12-odd tracks supposedly recorded on a single July day at a cost of just $17.36 .

    Originally Newcombe was heavily influenced by The Rolling Stones' psychedelic phase - the name comes from Stones guitarist Brian Jones combined with a reference to cult leader Jim Jones, but his work in the 2000s has expanded into aesthetic dimensions approximating the UK Shoegazing genre of the 1990s and incorporating influences from world music, especially Middle Eastern and Brazilian music.
