WISDOM TOOTH - "Pianoskin"

Wisdom Tooth showed up at my house twice last year with a notebook full of songs, and we went down to my basement and hooked a couple of microphones into a faithless cassette deck and he spun his tall tales, about a witch, the Tooth Fairy, Lady Lochness, the Sick Grandfather Clock, and of course Pianoskin himself. Anyone who isn't acquainted with the messy folky poppy lo-fi recordings that John "Wisdom Tooth // Mad Mouth" Andrews is cooking in New Jersey is about to find the part of the world he forgot, under his bed, around the backs of trees, in the corner of the wall behind the piano, et cetera. This is raw crooning for you to sing from your pillow to the moon. Seven songs. C21, ltd. 50, $3 + shipping.

EASYBOY - "Friends"

QUILT - "Quilt"

The first recordings of this strange trio Quilt walk gracefully down the weird line between psychedelia, punk, and drone, with their eerie three-part harmonies, their cavewoman drumming, and their repetitive hypnotic guitar riffs. Quilt maybe sounds like the music the members of Aerosmith might be making ten years after the end of the world, when they are all living in caves, eating raw meat, and pretty much losing their minds. C28, ltd. 100, $5 + shipping.

THE GREAT VALLEY -"Sophia's Skull / White Gloves"

Like we said earlier, The Great Valley, pretend pop dreamsters, recorded their first, most sincere full-length album during a week in an attic, sleeping during the day and working only at night. A choir of crickets backs up the spooky crooners on every track. Now available as a cassette, as it was originally conceived, with the twin dreams of Diamond Mouse and Big Dipperr lying back against back: Sophia's Skull and White Gloves. Multi-instrumental music for make-believers, with saws, organs, and lyrics about shrunken skulls, little sisters, and creepy gloves. Listen to it on Halloween. C42, $4

SOLD OUT! (BUT MAYBE STILL AVAILABLE AT SHOWS!)

THE GREAT VALLEY - "Under Snow"

Wintertime in the Great Valley, when all the crickets go hibernate, only two men have the magic blood that never freezes. These are Big Dipperr and Diamond Mouse, standing side by side in their snowman suits, walking on frozen ponds, dragging an electric guitar to a snowy summit to wail pretend pop across the land. The six songs on this EP are as delicate as snowflakes, as epic as icicles, and as heavy as the snow on the roof. CDR or C30, $5, ltd. 100

SOLD OUT, EXCEPT AT SHOWS. OR DOWNLOAD IT FREE (ABOVE).

XANADU MARY - "Snakehaired Lady"
