Fuzz Club Records

Portugal's dreamweapon take their name from the 1990 Spacemen 3 live album Dreamweapon: An Evening of Contemporary Sitar Music', who themselves took inspiration from the work of minimalist drone - or Dream Music'- visionary La Monte Young and a 1965 multimedia piece titled Rites of The Dreamweapon'by original The Velvet Underground drummer Angus MacLise. Fast-forward to 2018 and dreamweapon, the band, are continuing to keep the torch burning.

Made up of 10,000 Russos bassist Andre Couto, João Campos Costa and Edgar Moreira, dreamweapon emerged in 2009 and have since gone on to release one EP, their debut S/T album and a handful of singles, whilst taking their immersive and unremitting live show around Europe.

Made up of four improvised compositions recorded in one take at their Porto practice space, on February 16th dreamweapon will be releasing their sophomore LP SOL'.

On the album, whirrs of feedback and noise coalesce around droning, oscillating synths, samples and subtle cascading guitars, the only thing keeping the sparse soundscapes together being the incessant Krautrock rhythm with a seemingly endless motorik bassline that forces it's way right to the back of your unconscious and the almost proto-punk minimalism of those programmed drum machines.

Next up in the Fuzz Club Session series is Austin's Holy Wave. Following the release of their 2016 LP Freaks Of Nurture'we invited the band to London to lay down a session.

Despite still being steeped in a 60s Nuggets nostalgia the material on the session see's HolyWave ditch the Seeds-esque garage for a more washed out, reverberating psych-pop sound.

The warm analogue recording creating a blissed-out echo chamber of sun-soaked psychedelia - recorded straight to tape and committed to wax.

JuJu is the brainchild of Sicilian multi-instrumentalist Gioele Valenti (Lay Llamas, Herself).

Having now signed to Fuzz Club Records, the project is set to release the sophomore LP Our Mother Was A Plant' - the follow-up to 2016s S/T debut that was widely hailed as one of the most innovative psych albums of the year.

Carrying on in its predecessor's footsteps, the new LP is a continuation of JuJu's ritualistic sonic exploration into the cultural implications of the current refugee crisis, humanities increasingly strained relationship with Mother Earth and neo-pagan mythology.

Even more adventurous than the last, JuJu has changed the game for modern psychedelia once again.

Calling it just a psych'record would be an injustice though, JuJu's shamanic, lysergic mantras are influenced just as much by afrobeat, krautrock, glam, post-punk, art rock, drone and just about everything in between.

Tracklisting:
1. Death By Beautiful Things
2. In A Ghetto
3. And Play A Game
4. James Dean
5. I Got Your Soul

'Away From The Water' is the highly anticipated debut album from London six piece Lola Colt. Produced by Bad Seed Jim Sclavunos.

Hailed as one of London's most exciting and captivating live bands by fans and critics alike, this six-piece have been taking audiences by storm. Their shows have been described as "a spellbinding and dramatic experience with both sonic and visual intensity" and they make certain every show feels like a special event.

Crystallising their breathtaking live experience into physical form has been an intense and challenging experience as Matt explains "Our music is pure escapism and the thought of recording it felt strangely like trying to put up walls around a dream. What we strived to create is a timeless record that takes the listener on a journey to a different place with each listen".

Black Smoke Rising is the debut album from Swedish psych wanderers The Orange Revival. Originally self-released by the band back in 2011, Fuzz Club Records are reissuing the LP for the first time since it immediately sold out first time around.

With its hypnotic 60s guitars, droning vintage organs and swaggering vocals it's a tripped out, desert-rock ode to the Stones, Brian Jonestown Massacre and Spacemen 3.

Since its release in 2011 the band have toured extensively, playing a run of dates with Spectrum and wooing crowds at Austin Psych Fest along the way, and have ceaselessly confirmed themselves as one of Europe's leading psychedelic outputs - Fuzz Club are delighted to be bringing their majestic debut to light once more.

Tracklisting:
1. Yesterday
2. Ever
3. Set Her Free
4. Medistation
5. Composition 14: 39

RF Shannon takes a drastic shift from the long form, pensive desert meditations of their previous record. 'The process was a drastic shift from the one we took with Jaguar Palace'and I was hooked. It was a blast all of the time.

We kept a quick pace due to external circumstances via random or otherwise inevitable interruptions, so we learned to take what we could get. If a take was good, it was a keeper, we didn't second guess it. In just four days we had demoed the majority of my new material and it just felt so right.''explains Shane Renfro, the mind behind RF Shannon.

The final product of the seize the moment approach behind the writing and recording process echoes the themes Trickster Blues attempts to dissect. 'The lyrics are about acknowledging consequences and saying "so what", the reward is worth the risk, etc. It's about feeling a pull, a calling, and dedicating to it hell or high water, whatever that may be. Its the heart of it all.''Renfro continues. To be able to listen and say 'That's it, that's the song. It is what it is, and we like what it is' Sounds a little underwhelming in that sense, but that's what I wanted. I just wanted the songs to speak for themselves. Our old material is challenging and dense, and I love it. I love the spaces we have created. But I wanted to record songs that could just stand alone and be what they are.''

Following their recent collab LP with Gnod, under the Temple ov BBV pseudonym, Eindhoven art-punk collective RMFTM (fka Radar Men From The Moon) have announced the third and final instalment in their Subversive'album trilogy - 'Subversive III: De Spelende Mens', due for release December 1st on Fuzz Club Records.

Influenced by the ground-breaking sonic industrialism of Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire and Coil, as well the transcendent kinetic rhythms of Neu!, Faust and Amon Duul II, 'Subversive III: De Spelende Mens' see's their industrial art-punk take on it's most incessant, angular and free-flowing form in a frenzy of metallic drones, thunderous feedback stabs of synths and throbbing, repetitive krautrock rhythms that at times border on techno territory.

With the Subversive series, RMFTM have sought to deconstruct and rebuild their creative process, pushing themselves to the limit with each and every release and Spelende De Mens', translated as the playing man', is the perfect way to conclude the series.

Tracklisting:
1. Secret Howl In Ambient Night
2. Drunk With God
3. Beeldenwereld

Separated by 7000 miles, Routine Death is the husband and wife duo of Lisa (Gothenburg) and Dustin Zozaya (Austin), the latter also playing in Fuzz Club favourites Holy Wave.

The duo will be releasing their debut album, Parallel Universes in June, offering the perfect introduction to the dark, lo-fi pop world - channelling an ethereal darkwave sound with bewitching lo-fi vocals and the glitchy electronics of Broadcast, or even Stereolab.

Born out of this distance is a certain kind of intimacy, the use of cheap equipment and a creative process that involves constantly sending tracks forwards and backwards over the internet results in a minimalist noise-pop sound that shuns the overbearing sonic-excess that most new shoegaze bands fall victim to, instead stripping things down to the absolute fundamentals.

Lisa's sublimely entrancing vocals float over repetitive midi drumbeats (made using an app on Dustin's phone), glitched-out loops, droning organs and fuzzy lo-fi guitars.

Tracklisting:
1. The Anteroom (intro)
2. Life Inside A Vacuum
3. Star Alliance
4. Diamonds
5. Parallel Universe
6. Charm Tooth
7. Salvaged Denim
8. The Impossibility of Paying Our Debts
9. Heart & Soul
10. Belong

Iceland's Singapore Sling formed in 2000 and are highly lauded as one of the innovators of experimental psychedelia and rock and roll as we currently know it.

Their ninth full-length Kill Kill Kill (Songs About Nothing)'is set for release February 24th via Fuzz Club Records.

The LP is a haunting and claustrophobic affair, drifting from the sleazy rock'n'roll splendour of previous releases for a more discordant and experimental pastiche.

Unremitting, scuzzy bass-lines roil deep into your conscious, snarling beneath the echoing, atonal vocals of Henrik and the chugging, vapour-trail guitars - this is Singapore Sling at their most sinister, immersive and unforgiving.

Tracklisting:
1. Shake Shake Shake
2. Scum Scum Scum
3. Fuck Everything
4. Bop Bop Boo
5. Evil Angel
6. Sonic Haus
7. Surrounded By Cunts
8. Riffermania (Kill Kill Kill)
9. Nothing And Nowhere
10. Nuthing's Theme

Limited edition of 1000 LP's / CDs.

'Sometimes you need to burrow through the darkness of your soul to find the light in your life. This album is definitely dark at times, but through it all, it comes with a sense of release and freedom' - Levitation Magazine. // Limited edition of 750 copies on 180 grams transparent vinyl.

The return of Icelandic Singapore Sling is upon us with their seventh studio album, recorded in the winter of 2011-2012 titled The Towers of Foronocity'and you will be anticipating this one for good reason. Twelve tracks of that dark, moody and broody sound that we all have come to know so well. It's like a surrealistic dream sequence out of a David Lynch movie. Walls and walls of sound, layered between darkness and light.

The album contains some of the bands best songs to date, including the opening track 'You Drive Me Insane' with it's thump coming at you, it'll have you tasting the blood (of Singapore Sling) immediately. The band was born in 2000 as a result of nobody making the music that Singapore Slings Henrik Bjornsson wanted to hear.

So he simply decided to make it himself, instead of complaining and doing nothing. It was born out of love and hate. Love of the various music from the past, mainly rock 'n' roll, and hatred of the majority of the music around him. He named the band Singapore Sling (after the film by Nikolai Nikolaidis) shortly before the first show in he fall of 2000.

The first proper record, The Course of Singapore Sling, was released in 2002 and named "The Course Of" because of bad luck and freaky incidents that surrounded the recording of the record. The course went on and so did they.

Side A:
1. You Drive Me Insane
2. All Your Sins

After causing seismic shifts in the underground earlier this year with their debut album Neither Virtue Nor Anger, Sonic Jesus are back with a limited edition 7' featuring a brand new track, and remix by Sonic Boom aka Pete Kember from Spacemen 3 and Spectrum, due for release November 20th on Fuzz Club Records.

On Side A the remix of 'Locomotive' maintains the track's beautiful abstract vocals which evoke some kind of religious ritual or perhaps a lonely lament. The song is then propelled into the heavens as the band crashes in and Sonic Boom's psychedelic treatment takes effect.

The B side, 'Never In My Mind', starts off like a call to arms full of violence and energy, and continues its rampage pace like an adrenaline shot to the heart. The marching snare drum is overlaid with fuzz-heavy guitars and dark distorted vocals to produce a sound that is distinctly Sonic Jesus.

From their two releases to date (Neither Virtue Nor Anger and a self titled EP released by Fuzz Club in 2012) Sonic Jesus has earned the adoration of much of the alternative music press including Consequence of Sound, The Quietus, Drowned In Sound, Clash Music, and Exclaim! who have praised their unique sound of intense industrial darkness, built from vast and myriad influences.

The Quietus says Sonic Jesus have conclusively proved themselves the contemporary masters'.

Drowned In Sound says Sonic Jesus can lay claim to releasing one of the scene's - and this year's - finest collections.'(Referring to Neither Virtue Nor Anger).

Side A:
Locomotive (remixed by Sonic Boom)
