Originally the solo project of Hank Allen, 2019's debut EP, \"Rules to Break\" became a YouTube overnight sensation, racking up nearly 40,000 views via the Harakiri Diat channel. \"Rules to Break\" established TEENAGE CENOBITE's style of grungy synthpunk noisewave, both diverse and uncompromising. Since that time, Allen has assembled a full live band, enlisting the rhythm section of fellow Richmond psych-punks SLUMP, amongst others. \"Live\" is the first group CENOBITE recording, including a few reworked hits from \"Rules to Break\", along with several new tracks. There's a certain direct and ugly tinge to these recordings that hangs in the same league of noisy damage as the early AmRep catalog run through a contemporary punk\/hardcore sensibility - all tightly executed and committed live to eight track tape.

After letting it collect dust for 12 months, they assembled a band to perform the songs live featuring Jake Robertson on drums and Sally Buckley on synth; and released the four-song demo cassette, “Smart World”.

Tracked at Golden Beat Studios in Los Angeles by Mike Kriebel and Ty Segall, the release features a collection of songs reimagined and reverse engineered from the perverse home recordings of Boog featured on the band’s previous three releases. Recorded immediately after a tour of America’s West Coast and featuring Shelby Jacobson (gtr), Kriebel (gtr), and Marley Jones (dr), the arrangements are refined in a way that only the road can and these 11 songs erupt from the speaker. The performances here are focused, sharp, and completely disturbing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3975345937\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/oogbogoshout.bandcamp.com\/album\/beat-session-vol-12\"\u003eBeat Session Vol 12 by Oog Bogo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Shout Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43631981396191,"sku":"24734381","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0312\/7630\/2471\/products\/a2261703121_16.jpg?v=1664286351"},{"product_id":"private-lives-s-t-cs","title":"Private Lives \"S\/T\" CS","description":"\u003cp\u003ePro-duplicated cassette - 100 Pink \/ 100 Blue J-cards.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIncludes download code.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive tracks of incredibly vital and hard hitting punk from Montréal! \u003cspan\u003ePrivate Lives morphed from the pandemic bedroom project of husband and wife Chance (guitar) and Jackie (vocals) into a full-fledged band with the addition of Frank (drums) and Josh (bass).

You may have enjoyed Ian Teeple in action with Warm Bodies or The Natural Man Band, though Silicone Prairie is where Teeple has been focusing his solo creative energies over the past couple years, culminating in these 13 tracks. A trebly \u0026amp; jittery, landlocked Midwestern punk sound comes into effect straight out of the gate, much in the lineage of Gulcher's 'Red Snerts' comp or the Dow Jones side of 'Hoosier Hysteria' - with a dash of hardcore DEVO or even D.L.I.M.C. thrown in for contemporary spuds. But there's far more to Silicone Prairie - with quantitatively great songwriting and instrumentation bursting any preconceived sub-subgenre bubbles and occupying a kindred creative plain that made just about any Mould, Kirkwood, or Sage composition of the mid-80's oh so delightful \u0026amp; memorable. Heck, there's even a synth-heavy instrumental dedicated to electronic pioneer Patrick Cowley. 'My Life on the Silicone Prairie' dances across the sonic spectrum, from bedroom jangle to basement devolution, carrying big guitars, sharp synthesizers, and a hopeful grin into 2021 and beyond. A carefully crafted debut alive with the kind of creative rock'n'roll energy that simply cannot be quarantined, now\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eor ever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RAwWB8PrD28\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Feel It","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43666652332255,"sku":"24803168","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0312\/7630\/2471\/products\/SP_bandcamp_cassette_templatecopy.jpg?v=1665145363"},{"product_id":"why-bother-there-are-such-things-cs","title":"Why Bother? \"There Are Such Things\" CS","description":"\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUndeniably one of the most prolific punk bands of the moment, Iowa's WHY BOTHER? are back mere weeks after their debut LP with an eleven song cassette!

MetroCard-carrying riot grrrls rebirthed the bomp with a gasoline gut. In 2020, Sweeping Promises read our pandemic minds with Hunger for a Way Out. In 2023, they return with a new message: Good Living Is Coming For You. At first glance, this nouveau wave slogan offers hope wrapped around relief.

In its place, a retired and resplendent nude painting studio in Lawrence, Kansas, bathed in light with high ceilings and hardwood floors. Guided once again by their surrounding architecture, a reverb-rich space remains the defining element at the heart of their highly stylized sound.

Every line is delivered with such joyous, soaring layers that each punch lands like a chef’s kiss.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSweeping Promises are Lira Mondal and Caufield Schnug. A chance meeting in Arkansas led to a decade of playing in an eclectic assortment of projects together. Their relentless practice made perfect. Bass playing Lira is an emotive bolt of thunderous energy with the iconic blast of a girl group rolled into one robust throat. Caufield is an intentional guitar player and drummer. No note or hit is extraneous. Together they are meticulous sound engineers, using space as a key ingredient to their distinct sound. Controlling every aspect of their craft, from the first note they write together, all the way through to the final mastering process, each record is an unspoiled fingerprint unique to their dynamic chemistry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten before the pandemic, Hunger for a Way Out was released on Feel It Records in the summer of 2020. These songs drip with the anxious urgency of a commanding live performance yet their gauzy production transports us like the fading memory of a favorite song. This distorted sense of time resonated with thousands of quarantined listeners who turned the album into a life-saving floatation device and most beloved album of the year. This is when Feel It Records (North America) and Sub Pop (everywhere else) joined forces to divide\/unite and conquer; beginning with the 2021 single “Pain Without a Touch” and now carrying through to Good Living Is Coming For You.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pandemic went on to trigger an absurd chain of events for Sweeping Promises. Under financial strain, Mondal and Schnug uprooted their lives. They surrendered their studio in Cambridge to take refuge with family in Texas. They completed over 50 demos between their Austin bathroom and a Marfa abode, but feeling unsatisfied, they sought another fresh start. When a disused church in Ohio proved too difficult to rehab, they ultimately found lasting inspiration in Kansas. With their home and studio all under one roof, life is music and music is life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGood Living Is Coming For You ultimately reflects being thrust into a severely unpredictable world.

This theme of domestic psycho-enlightenment and crumbling relationships is expanded upon on “Nobody’s Cop”—albeit with a slightly darker tinge, as images of “good Germans” and policemen locked in fiery kisses invade an apartment that has become littered with cascading dishes and melancholic dreariness. Importantly, “Nobody’s Cop” refuses to offer any moral judgements, its repeated cascade of double and triple negatives [“I’m no fool\/and I ain’t never gonna be nobody’s cop”] creating a confusing scene which is as self-implicating as it is critical—if there is a mortal affliction at play here, it is the hopelessness of love itself, not any particular player involved. “Where is My Baby?” launches the listener out of the apartment and into the midnight streets, following a foolishly optimistic character as he stumbles after an elusive love interest with a “smile like lemonade,” only for him to tumble to an untimely end in the shallows of the Hudson River. Elsewhere, naïve adolescents conjure portals into Hell (“Stupid Boys”) and bleary-eyed party-casualties rock themselves into the comfort of sleep before the comedown has a chance to kick in (“Eyes of the Night”). Lest the city become overbearing, the penultimate track “Point Reyes” offers a sliver of relief, waxing upon images of nostalgic car rides along the coast, conjuring the childlike smell of leather as if it were a type of vaguely perverted Proustian madeleine.

Heavy dance rhythms dominate: “Dancing Scrooge” lays out a collage of stadium-sized harmonies and “Miss You”-era Stones saxophone wails over a house-inspired four-to-the-floor beat, while “Where is My Baby?” cleverly juxtaposes shrill funk guitars and naïve recorder melodies against throbbing, Suicide-adjacent hardware electronics. The band’s emotional landscape has darkened considerably, erecting walls of charmingly melancholic fog. “Eat Your Heart Out” peddles a Suede-esque vampiric drawl over contorted goth progressions, while “Point Reyes” evokes the feeling of a cherry-red Mustang driving off a sea-side cliff in slow motion, playing considered and sparse acoustic guitar lines against washed-out synths. “Eyes of the Night” carries this overriding sense of minimal, chemical-sapped bleakness to its logical conclusion, accelerating beautifully simple piano and saxophone lines towards an almost comically cathartic, bull-in-a-china-shop “Champagne Supernova” style ending.

But to say that Cincinnati posseses a \"sound\" that has any kind of through line is a bit more difficult to place. Instead, the city like the music it produces, is a bit of a liminal zone - straddling the South and the Midwest, concentration of the world's most successful multi-national companies and a startling high poverty index.

We love it here. The landscape of Ohio feels very lush, vast, closely integrated with nature and sky.

Led by Bo White, the Counselors have swelled to a sextet; but for a band of this size, the music remains stripped of excess and White’s songs are given ample room to shine. As this session demonstrates, Bo writes some absolute gems.

One Night at the Daisy Chain functions as both a career retrospective and a teaser for the forthcoming LP. Highlights from PC’s previous albums (Proper Release \/ The Optimal Seat) get another lease on life as the band breathes fresh air into tracks like “Modern Station,” “Repeat Offender” and “The Galvanizer.” If new cuts like “Ranking Set,” “What’s The News” and “Fountain of UHF” are any indication, Limited Sphere will complete Patois Counselors’ hat trick of stellar full-lengths.

For the first time, we hear Emahoy on harmonium and massive, droning pipe organ, alongside some of her most moving piano work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mississippi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46956532957407,"sku":null,"price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0312\/7630\/2471\/files\/MRI214_380px.jpg?v=1746821083"},{"product_id":"rainbow-valley-on-the-fringes-of-fear-excitement-cs","title":"Rainbow Valley - On The Fringes Of Fear \u0026 Excitement CS","description":"\u003cp\u003eExperimental rock music performed by Micah Wu (Artificial Go \/ ROD). 17 song pro duped cassette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=4194034796\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rainbowvalley.bandcamp.com\/album\/on-the-fringes-of-fear-excitement\"\u003eOn The Fringes Of Fear \u0026amp; Excitement by Rainbow Valley\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Rainbow Valley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46968911233247,"sku":"","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0312\/7630\/2471\/files\/a1457080592_16.jpg?v=1747160608"},{"product_id":"the-silkies-idk-lies-cs","title":"The Silkies - IDK\/Lies CS","description":"","brand":"Silkies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47149809107167,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}]},{"product_id":"funkadelic-s-t-cs","title":"Funkadelic – s\/t CS","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 px-3 py-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ng-tns-c14-67\"\u003eReleased in 1970, Funkadelic’s self-titled debut was a radical collision of psychedelic rock, gospel, blues, and soul — a chaotic, genre-defying statement that redefined the possibilities of Black music. Where Motown aimed for polish and crossover appeal, Funkadelic dove headfirst into distortion, improvisation, and spiritual ambiguity, offering a sound as gritty and unpredictable as the era itself.Backed by a ferocious young band — including Eddie Hazel, Billy Bass Nelson, Tawl Ross, Tiki Fulwood, and Mickey Atkins — the album rejected convention in favor of raw groove and existential noise. Tracks like “I Got a Thing…” and “What Is Soul” pulse with menace and joy, bookended by surreal monologues that echo both street philosophy and space-age gospel.As part of Org Music’s Westbound Records reissue series, this edition restores the album’s full impact across multiple formats. The deluxe double LP, mastered at 45RPM directly from tape by Dave Gardner at DSG Mastering, offers the highest fidelity to date. Gardner and restoration specialist Catherine Vericolli archived and restored the original master tapes at 54 Sound Studios in Ferndale, Michigan, with assistance from in-house engineer Nick King. A single LP edition, cut from high-resolution tape transfers, is also available, alongside CD, cassette, and digital formats.A sonic revolution in its time and a lasting influence ever since, Funkadelic remains a groundbreaking testament to music without rules and freedom without limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ORG Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47298780332255,"sku":null,"price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0312\/7630\/2471\/files\/ORGM2326_380px.jpg?v=1756334831"},{"product_id":"descendents-milo-goes-to-college-cs","title":"Descendents – Milo Goes To College CS","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-12 px-3 py-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ng-tns-c14-67\"\u003eOne of the seminal works from the genre to become known as pop punk, the Descendents’ Milo Goes to College arrived in the year 1982 as most of the members of the band were just finishing high school. They began by writing catchy, hummable melodies about girls, parents, and food, among other things. Despite their unabashedly juvenile lyrical approach, they played with a blistering intensity rivaling any of the bands in the burgeoning hardcore crowd that they fell in with. This winning formula has carried the group for decades, as their influence has inspired countless followers (some becoming far more famous) in their wake. Now, 43 years later, Descendents are reclaiming and reissuing the album that started it all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ORG Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47423107236063,"sku":"35127659","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0312\/7630\/2471\/files\/ORGM2330_380px.jpg?v=1758216163"},{"product_id":"the-cosmic-tones-research-trio-s-t-cs","title":"The Cosmic Tones Research Trio – s\/t CS","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text-center\"\u003eA new album of peaceful explorations by The Cosmic Tones Research Trio.

Boon and Mike Watt’s New Alliance Records. The album was recorded after vocalist Milo Aukerman returned from college, and is the first of two Descendents releases to feature guitarist Ray Cooper. It found the band leaning even harder into their penchant for irresistible melodies, often with a much brighter sound than what could be found on Milo Goes To College. This sonic evolution helped the band evade falling into a sophomore slump, and only strengthened their already-cemented legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ORG Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47603005194463,"sku":"35627515","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0312\/7630\/2471\/files\/ORGM2331_380px.jpg?v=1763660050"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.feelitrecordshop.com\/collections\/cassettes.oembed?page=4","provider":"Feel It Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
