Available for the first time in general retail, this 12" combines V*gra Boys explosive debut EP "Consistency Of Energy" (2016) with the enigmatic "Call Of The Wild" EP.
Garden, The - Haha CD. The Shears twins' 2015 Epitaph album of short, snappy two-piece punk songs, featuring 'All Smiles Over Here :)'. Raw, immediate, and direct.
Hippo Campus pare their sound back to taut guitar pop on Flood, a 13-track CD on Psychic Hotline. Songs like "Brand New" fold bruised confession into precise hooks; vulnerable, restless, quietly insistent.
Staples, Vince - (self-titled) CD: Ten terse songs produced by Kenny Beats, with Vince trading flourish for sharp, wry portraits of Long Beach life; includes 'Law Of Averages' and the closer 'Mhm'.
Warm, vinyl-ready reissue of Cypress Hill's IV, pressed as a 2LP (180g black vinyl). Includes 'Dr. Greenthumb' and 'Tequila Sunrise'. Fat low end and muggy grooves that open up on a good turntable.
