We have the limited indie store exclusive TEAL colour press for $60 (price-drop since our initial pre-order, all copies will be reduced to this price) plus the digipack CD for $32. More info on the album below:

"Genre-bending Tropical Fuck Storm present their highly anticipated fourth album, 'Fairyland Codex,' on their new label home Fire Records.

Recorded with co-producer Michael Beach at the band's Dodgy Brothers studio in Nagambie, Australia, the songs on 'Fairyland Codex' immerse us in the chaos of a fateful landslide, picking out the characters that litter the impending collapse of society.

Acidic, acerbic, anarchic; Tropical Fuck Storm's command of wordplay, undercut by snarling guitars, pulsing rhythms, and explosive salvos, populates a hinterland between light and dark. The vocal interplay between Liddiard and the soaring harmonies of Kitschin and Dunn creates a teetering balancing act that's intensified by the frantic narratives that evolve from their collective psyche."

Stoked to get our hands on some copies of the long-awaited vinyl press of Antenna's debut E.P. out via Last Ride Records. Featuring the excellent 2024 5-track E.P. on Side A, plus 2 vinyl exclusive remixes on Side B. These are the final batch of the first vinyl pressing (300 copies only).

"The work of vocalist Shogun has seen no shortage of deserved acclaim since he came to prominence as Royal Headache's frontman in the 2010's, semi-accidentally securing himself a place as one of rock and roll's best contemporary singers. Since that band's dissolution late last decade, few have come close to capturing the balance between the disarmingly sincere soulfulness and irrepressible hardcore ferocity that makes him so unique.

But in Antenna, with their rabid and affecting blend of punk, garage and powerpop, he's found more than worthy foils to usher him back into the void he left. It's a rare thing to hear earnest, heartfelt punk rock done exactly right, and Antenna have hit the sweet spot between uncomplicated and uncompromising right out the gate. It may be their debut, and "promising" is always a tempting descriptor, but in this case it's inadequate; it's Antenna Time, and deliverance is upon us. "

The beloved 2008 album from Have A Nice Life - Deathconsciousness is finally back in print on vinyl! This new 2LP mint green press from The Flenser is housed in a thick glossy gatefold sleeve with poly-lined inner sleeves and a 75-page booklet. In stock now for $90, more info on the release below:

"In 2008, Have A Nice Life released their now cult classic Deathconsciousness LP to a whimper and critical non-interest, but slowly over the years it has become a force of influence and fanatic obsession. Seamlessly blending shoegaze, post punk, new wave, industrial and noise with unparalleled depth and weight.

The album is rhythmic, primal and expansive; a modern gloomy-post-punk masterpiece; a mediation on death, loss and unrequited love. Deathconsciousness feels more fresh and engaging with every listen and has held up as a remarkable piece of art.

The Flenser’s reissue of Deathconsciousness will be accompanied by a 75-page booklet detailing the dark and forgotten history of the Antiochean cult. Blurring the lines between novella, liner notes, and academic text, the zine itself presents an engrossing narrative."
