16th of December 2011 Update of New and Key Restocked Items
at Redscroll Records
Happy happy everyone. Once again, a final reminder that the ultimate opportunity to order any last minute gifts that we don’t have in stock is this weekend (Sunday night at the latest). You can call, stop in or email us with any inquiries. We got a ton of Poly Sleeves (bags) in this week for all those who might have been looking for them and we got a bunch of cleaning kits in as well. Josh and I (Rick) finally picked it up on the review front this week too.

Spotlight: NO!
Spotlight: NO!
NO! is the name of a punk rock band from Middletown, Connecticut. If you know your CT punk and aren’t familiar with these guys yet you might be familiar with their faces through some of the past bands they’ve been in (Rat Byte for instance). Carlo is also the dude we call when we have turntables we need repaired. He does a great job, so if you’re having some record player issues hit him up, 860-227-9599.
The music is fast paced melodic rock’n’roll punk. Vocally, and I know someone will take offense to this, but it reminds me of a less quirky Death By Stereo. I’ve heard more than a couple people say they belong on SST in the 80s (I’d add Alternative Tentacles to that statement). Makes sense to me. They have a very fun west coast 80s hardcore type slant (song “Can you dig it?” for instance).
Trying to search for links for this band using google is a nightmare. Here’s a cheat sheet:
NO! on bandcamp
NO! on facebook
<p>&amp;amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;a href=”http://notheband.bandcamp.com/album/can-you-dig-it”&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;Can You Dig It? by No&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/a&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;amp;gt;</p>
Gifting Holidaze
9th of December 2011 Update
at Redscroll Records
Another busy week here at the shop. I think I’ve inadvertently left the new electronic stuff from last week in the mix with this update, but I think you can read some repeats with little injury. Just as a reminder, we do do Gift Certificates in case your family/friends are asking you what you want. In fact, we just had a nice new design done for the Gift Certificates by Todd Rogers (Teaessare Design; same guy who’s done much work for us in the past including our stickers, sign and a few shirts). I’ll probably do a tease of those once I have some printed on nice stock tomorrow. Once again, our friend Mark has come through with a review which is nice because when we’re busy like this we tend to not get to even thinking about doing a review (thanks again, Mark). So, yea, onto the business of updating.

Review
_________________________
Moonface is a project from Canadian indie musician Spencer Krug, whose credits include Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown and Frog Eyes. Just as the title suggests, Krug’s organ takes center stage, creating a nostalgic 80s-electronic sound backed up by a looping drum machine and his emotional, resonant vocals. On this record, he crafts hypnotic atmospheres that sound suited for underwater levels in 8-bit video games, particularly in the jovial/droll-sounding opener “Return to the Violence of the Ocean Floor,” where the organ seems to complement an elegant coral reef formation. The big standout track is “Fast Peter,” which utilizes a very simple yet energetic and quick-paced hook that really creates a feeling of movement. Each of these five tracks is relatively lengthy (ranging six-and-a-half to eight minutes,) making it easier to focus on and absorb each landscape.
