So, so excited for this one! After months of work, we are pleased to bring you this lovely cdr set. Sam and I screened these last weekend, and they really came out beautifully. This is a 2 cdr set. Disc one is titled DNA, disc two is RNA, and both are about one hour each of totalnowhealingdronequarkspiralsynthomness. We think they work well together. The sounds contained herein were recorded as part of the Sweet 69 music marathon which happened last year at Chronic Town in State College, PA. It was an amazing 69 hour continuous music marathon, and Tathagatta played for 10 straight hours!!! I’m serious. Perfect for baby making, and/or yoga.
We have an exciting new project cooking up at the Honeymoon HQ. Tathagatta (Taht-ahgahta) is Sam Cusumano, Erich Breimhurst, and Norm Fetter pulsing out totalnowhealingdronequarkspiralsynthomness. We’re putting the finishing touches on a limited edition 2 disc cdr that will be available in the coming months. YES, that’s 2 discs, one hour long track on each. Lay back, defocus, and ascend into two excerpts from Tathagatta…
Excerpt 2
YES!!!! The new sophomore album from Golden Ball, The Antique Barking Swirls of Dawn is here, now! They are, of course, available in the shop. We’re psyched to be able to offer you a full streaming preview of the album, courtesy of our friends at Philebrity and Apollo Audio. Check it below.
We’ll be celebrating the release at Johnny Brenda’s this fine evening with the righteous dudes of Sorted! The joint gets rolling at 9:30, Golden Ball hits the stage at 10:30. Join us! It’s also the anniversary of Patricio’s birth, so come witness the not so subtle poetics of the dance floor. It is Spring, and we smell some ripe pheromones.
We are oh so very pleased to present to you The Antique Barking Swirls of Dawn, by Golden Ball. As always, ye shoppe is the place to get some.
Smother.net says…”Folk rock anthems that are mighty and higher than you’d have imagined. Bits and pieces of abstract neurotically precise percussion are dangled out throughout Golden Ball’s fantastic follow-up to their “The Luxury of Pause”. This is good music for good music’s sake.”
“Simultaneously eerie, antic, and intimate, this cryptic, absurdist psychedelia cracks open the modest to find the epic–singing anthems that bring to mind the bizarre microcosms all around us. Sounds bloom, quiver, shrivel, break apart. Orchid totems are proudly planted atop the summits of anthills, and matchbook boats with maple leaf sails set off for the Arctic Circle…”
Ok.
We’ll be celebrating the release at Johnny Brenda’s on March 24th with the righteous dudes of Sorted! We recommend purchasing yrself an advanced ticket.
This just in…killer, thick new Niagara Falls & The Clear Spots split cdr released by the most excellent dudes at Deep Water Acres (check out their newly redesigned site). A righteous pairing of about thirty minutes from each band, and some of their heaviest material to date. We have a few of these in the Distro section of the shop, and these ultra-limited edition discs won’t last long, my fellow travelers…
Chris Bozzone’s new cd, Horizons of Death is now available to the world.
Here’s At the Ebb of the Tide for your sampling enjoyment.
You can get the whole package, where? Yes, in the shop.
These beautiful artifacts are now complete, and we’re so psyched. 10 tracks, 46 minutes housed in packaging designed by Tom Bugaj of Peacefeather. We’re really flipping for this disc. We’ll say the official release date is Tuesday, February 14, 2006 at 9 o’clock in the a.m. Get it!! Here’s a taste…Peacekeeper
The new Golden Ball 7″ vinyl, “Signature Abstract”/ “Blank” is available now. We did this with gold vinyl and packaged it in a heavy paper and vellum sleeve along with a cdr. There are only 300 of them, and you too can get one in the Shop, and get some preview here.
Golden Ball also covered the Espers track, “Voices” for “Songs from the Sixth Borough”. Dig Philadelphia bands covering other Philadelphia bands. Plain Parade is putting it out. Nice job. You can listen/buy it here.
