Wolves in The Throne Room – Celestial Lineage
Wolves In The Throne Room is an ambient black metal band from Olympia,
Washington. They were formed by two brothers (Aaron
& Nathan Weaver) in 2002, and released their first full length,
“”Diadem of Twelve Stars”  in 2006. Since then, they have been signed
to Southern Lord Records and released 2 full lengths, and EP, and a
live album. “Celestial Lineage” marks their fourth full length
release.

Wolves is not like most black metal bands, in that they do not promote
satanism, wear corpse pain or do much of what the average black metal
band does. Instead, they fuse their music with themes of nature, often
play outdoors, and promote meditation during live shows. “Celestial
Lineage” is as alluring and beautiful as it is aggressive and dark. It
has not left my turntable for about 5 days now, and I don’t see it
leaving anytime soon.

This double LP comes on 180 gram vinyl in a thick gatefold jacket with
printed inner sleeves and an OBI strip. Really top notch packaging,
but that’s to expect from Southern Lord.

Out & About: WFMU Record Fair (NYC)

Out & About: WFMU Record Fair (NYC)
Josh and I (Rick) and our friend Ben will be at the WFMU Record Fair on Friday and Saturday. We’ll have 2 tables set up. The fair goes through Sunday, but we’ll not be there that last day. It is the best event like this anywhere. There are hundreds of dealers (dealer list here) with a wide variety of specialties. And there are other special events and performances (Prince Rama, Black Hollies, CSC Funk Band… list). If you can’t make it, but want us to keep a look out for something in particular please feel free to send us an email with what it is you’d like us to look for and (this is important) how much you’d be willing to pay for it.
Take a look at this walking tour I did of the event last year (single shaky shot of me walking through the whole thing with as little back-tracking as possible – it’s hard to hit every spot without going back a little).
(PS – We’re also seeing Danzig’s Legacy show on Saturday night! Danzig, Misfits and Samhain songs! Stoked!)

(Read on and learn how.)


This Saturday, October 29th, Pixies will be taking the stage at the Palace Theater in Waterbury, CT to perform  their second album, “Doolittle”. Florida indie rockers, Surfer Blood will be opening up the show.


Manic Productions is co-promoting this show and was nice enough to give us a pair of tickets to give away! All you have to do is come down to the store & bring a Pixies album up to the counter. You don’t need to even buy it.  No purchase necessary! We only have one pair (2 for the first person to do this) so get here quick!

Speaking of Manic Productions, we recently did an interview with the brains behind that operation, Mark Nussbaum. We’re still putting that video together, but here is a sneak peek!

Dolphins Into The Future … On Seafaring Isolation LP
(Not Not Fun)
This is the kind of music that doesn’t abide by traditional “songwriting” – it’s better to just close your eyes and lose yourself in the freely flowing atmosphere. DITR is a project from Belgian composer Lieven Martens, who combines elegant, tranquil electronics with perpetual ocean ambience (chirping seabirds, barking sea lions, a creaking boat, clanging buoy bells and lots of crashing ocean waves are heard through most of this record.) The insert says that this LP is a tribute to Cetacean Nation founder John Cunningham Lilly M.D.’s “Seafaring Isolation” writings, which analyze “what happens when an isolated mind roams around the oceanic world by itself, only surrounded by this vast system of overwhelming natural elements.” Themes of unconscious thoughts and dreams are prevalent, particularly in “Lapse ~ Dream,” combining what sounds like nighttime swamp ambience with a woodwind instrument that sounds like it’s making bird calls. The overall experience is curiously soothing; a very palatable mix of not only electronic ambience, but also elements of trance and even new age. Personally, this is the kind of music I love to put on for a blissful chill-out.
