In their debut full-length “Layaway Plot,” Pretty Baby is a band realizing itself after years of compiling disparate sounds and influences, and pushing them through the fine mesh sieve of grief. On Layaway Plot, Pretty Baby weaves elements from turn of the century Dischord bands, the emotive Richmond punk scene, the cerebral experimental rock of Olympia, and angular post-punk revival. Piercing guitars, frenetic bass and chaotic drums pulse under layered unsettling synth pads and desperate, throaty vocals. At their apex, distorted walls of sound finally ...

Overlooked 1971 album from classically trained British composer Ed Welch, featuring lyrics by American folk icon Tom Paxton. Welch’s sophisticated arrangements, from refined orchestration to elegant piano-led melodies, meet Paxton’s warm, inviting words across ten songs that move effortlessly between upbeat pop and tender balladry. Often compared to the Elton John/Bernie Taupin partnership, the Welch-Paxton collaboration produced songs later covered by Cilla Black. This first-ever reissue, produced by Michael de Albuquerque and remastered by Prof. Stoned, includes two non-album A & B sides and an 8-page ...

Jefferies tells the story of England’s rebirth following an unspecified catastrophe. Cities decay and collapse, pet cats and dogs go feral and festering human bodies are left to rot, before the country is ultimately returned to ...

Bird in the Belly are a Brighton-based Folk group consisting of folk-duo Hickory Signals (Laura Ward and Adam Ronchetti), alt-folk singer-songwriter Ben Webb (Jinnwoo, Green Ribbons), and multi-instrumentalist and producer Tom Pryor. Together they collect little known and forgotten lyrics, poems and stories from around the UK, and set them to their own ‘hypnotically original compositions’ (fRoots). Their sound is raw and bare-boned with ‘distinctively contemporary and earthy vocalising’ (R2 Magazine) and harks back to the 1960’s Folk Revival sound. Their debut album The Crowing (March ...
