Joel Hinkle - As The Flesh Departs
quote: Honour your dead as you bury them!
Pray for the soul so it may be found.
Forget not the shell, once was him,
Filled with feeding that now abounds!
Dissolve, dissolve useless shell!
A hive of life now fills your remains.
The activity inside has made you swell,
As the flesh departs the insect now reigns!
Lopus - Cloud
Robin Guthrie & Harold Budd - After The Night Falls

Zelienople - Pajama Avenue

quote: Originally posted by boomkat
Although Zelienople might now be best known for their basement psychedelic jams, all crunching guitars and floorboard-rockin' free drumming, they actually started as something slightly different altogether. 'Pajama Avenue' was the band's first album and originally surfaced back in 2002, and showed the band to have much more of a leaning towards 'Spirit of Eden'-era Talk Talk, Bark Psychosis and early Verve (when they were good). This is no bad thing in my book, and the album stands as not only a reminder where the band came from but also as a stunning piece of work in its own right containing enough classic Zelienople moments to surely win over fans who have only recently discovered them.

Repetition / Distract - Peripheral Geometries EP

quote: Here at No Type, we like ambiences most when they have personality. And personality is something Felix, the man behind Repetition/Distract, certainly doesn't lack. Inbetween impressions of quiet architectures, massive landscapes & drony seas, there are percussive hints at a human presence. This music is in dark grey hues but it's also warm & enveloping. And with enough twists & turns to keep you on the edge. Not to mention, this is perfect autumn music. Yet another great No Type debut from an artist to watch.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven

quote: Originally posted by Barry Walters
No vocals. No lyrics. No solos and no leader. Instead, the nine-member Montreal collective known as Godspeed You! Black Emperor specialize in a surging symphonic post-rock, incorporating everything from ambient feedback drones to abstractions of hardcore punk; its second album is its masterwork.
Arranged in four continuous suites that forego conventional song structures in favor of orchestral movements, Lift Your Skinny Fists frames and contextualizes GY!BE’s compositions with automated gas station announcements and odd field recordings. Yet its multiple climaxes of sobbing strings, restless drums and sustain-drenched guitar are what define the record.
Playing off the double-meaning of its title, “Static” moans slowly, an unearthly hum merging with elegiac strings. Suddenly, a seething metal cacophony erupts until the song wears itself out, leaving behind a buzz that brings the piece back to where it begins. A spoken memory of Coney Island launches “Sleep,” which features a frantic and more rhythmic summit than the other songs, continually collapsing and starting up again. Like sequins on a black tar sea, the fourth suite, “Antennas to Heaven,” sprinkles twinkling glockenspiel over a thunderous din. Another sustained quiet passage follows, but at the album’s conclusion it turns shrill and discordant, offering neither resolution nor rest. As its title suggests, this imaginary soundtrack for dreams, revolutions, genocides and afterlives feels like a frustrated prayer, but one that's full of fighting spirit.

Thanks again to everyone who’s supported the label and the music.
