Gettin Personial
(Inyrdisk - IYD37) LP $17.00
Eight mystic grunge-pop singles and B-sides for the charts in heaven, plus one long guitar cryer for the heads by Blake Hargreaves -- prolific experimenter and a cog in the braintrust that gave the world Dreamcatcher, Thames, and Cousins of Reggae. Wordy, buried lyrics; thick songwriting magic; mystifying recording techniques; candy riffs; sub-glam moves swathed in smoke; chewed, pig-piled guitars; and obsessive drum kit recording. Seem like Psychic Hearts-loving Royal Trux outsider ’90s worship to you? Cuz it am. Stenciled, screened and stamped sleeve and lyric sheet. Includes free download. Edition of 333.
Thirty

Gatefold package, sturdily pasted-on art over disk envelopes and an insert. Edition of 99.

Exorcismes From All My Fingers
(Inyrdisk - IYD59) 2xLP $27.00

Pink Noise / Man Made Hill
(Inyrdisk - IYD88) split 7-inch $9.00
Two prime movers each from Montréal’s most admirable modern punks and Toronto’s relentless electro-pop sorcerer. Mark Sauner, Graeme Langdon, and Tara Desmond’s magic cash’n’carry stunners shake with tight disjointedness, while Randy Gagne mystifies with filthy tapes, blown-out beatboxes in full body-slam mode, and some hot-stepping into soulful crooning glory. Risograph-printed covers. Edition of 500.
Tamán Shud
(Inyrdisk) Used CDR $4.00
This fresh spirit from Pulawy, Poland, crafts dark ambient spells and impenetrable whorls of foggy nocturnal environmentalism in tribute to the mystery of the unknown man (all of the tags on his clothing had been removed) who was found dead on Somerton Beach, Australia, in 1948. Inside a secret pocket of the man’s clothing on a page torn from the Rubaiyat was written the great book’s final phrase “tamém shud,” meaning “finished” in Persian). Numbered edition of 30.
