RECKLESS RECORDS 11/10/23 NEW RELEASES
>> DROP NINETEENS – Hard Light LP/CD (Wharf Cat) *Crystal Clear Vinyl
Tiktok & streaming has been very kind to a few shoegaze vets like SLOWDIVE & DUSTER & supposedly even early 90s band DROP NINETEENS saw a big enough bump in plays to consider getting the band back together & we’re really glad that they did. This record surprised us right out of the gate with tight arrangements, memorable songs & an overall confidence that you wouldn’t expect after a 30 year break. You can hear hints of their past but like the SLOWDIVE reunion records, this band is making new music, not just rehashing their old sound. Fans of early 90s shoegaze, Flying Nun bands like THE CHILLS & THE BATS, INTERPOL, UNREST etc… should check this out. RECOMMENDED.
>> GOAT – Medicine LP (Rocket Recordings) *Color Vinyl
Sweden’s now long-running psych rock collective gets a bit more mellow, trading in noise guitar freakouts and faux-tribal workouts for swampy, chugging acid motorik that can sound a bit like classic BLACK ANGELS (or at their most uptempo a bit of KIKAGAKU MOYO). Always RECOMMENDED!
>> MICK JENKINS – The Patience LP/CD (BMG) *Opaque Yellow Vinyl – August 23 album now available ✶ ✶ ✶ ✶
If you’ve been listening to Mick Jenkins for a while, you know that he usually crafts his records with a dense & connected theme, & The Patience continues that trend with a record that sees an MC reacting to a changing world. It’s also a bit of a departure, showcasing Jenkin’s excellent ear with some less jazzy beats. In fact this record is downright HARD! It really knocks, & Mick’s delivery is more cutting, more aggressive than we ever remember hearing… RECOMMENDED.
>> NIECY BLUES – Exit Simulation LP/CD (Kranky)
Exit Simulation is the impressive debut album by the South Carolina based artist Janise Robinson aka NIECY BLUES. Imagine chopped & screwed trip-hop mixed with bedroom R&B tastefully drenched in beautiful reverb. Bass & sub frequencies are utilized expertly along with field recordings all highlighted by some truly wonderful lead vocals. If you ever dreamed of ERYKAH BADU or SOLANGE style vocals over GROUPER or slowed-down trip hop then this record is going to be a dream for you. RECOMMENDED.
>> RAGANA – Desolation’s Flower LP (The Flenser) *Black or Ltd. Bone Color Vinyl
RAGANA is a duo from the Pacific Northwest & they’re paving their own way in the metal world. Emotional & intense singing over slow to mid-tempo riffs that owe as much to first wave Norwegian black metal as it does to bands like THOU. Cool stuff. RECOMMENDED.
>> SHIFTED PHASES – The Cosmic Memoirs of the Late Great Rupert J. Rosinthrope 3LP (Tresor) *Reissue
Tresor reissues a 20 year old RARE release from Drexciya’s James Stinson and sole release under this moniker. A grail for Drexciya connoisseurs that also comes with 2 tracks which were previously only on the CD version. After a long campaign of reissuing Tresor’s entire Drexciyian catalog, what an excellent way to wrap it up! Praise the electro gods, of course this is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
