"Cuts on their second full-length, "Lions Eat Lions," recorded by Alex Newport (the Mars Volta/the Locust) and released on GSL (CD) and Rococo (vinyl), are rich in layered atmosphere -- hot but cold, loose but tight, raw but sophisticated, all at the same time.

click to enlarge The Julie Mittens - April/June LP $14 postage paid vinyl color: black RCC#0021  limited to 300
Available now! Full color printed sleeve, on black vinyl. As described by the band: "April/June...recorded in our rehearsal room first part of 2006 in Leiden, The Netherlands. The tracks are from two different sessions hence April/June (we like to keep our titles simple). The idea was to make a cyclical work (round like an lp) so there's no side A or B. The listener can start anywhere. The tracks are just there...they do not really start or end and they seem to add to each other somehow after a while (at least that's my experience)... Although the tracks feel like a relaxed ride at times, they where recorded at the usual intense volume levels...really, really loud! Don't know how they came out this way... All four tracks had this same 'relaxed' feeling about them so that's why we decided to put them together. Our tracks have no name, no number, they are what they are..."

A brand new one-sided twelve inch from KK Rampage, the undisputed Kings of Chicago. After taking the noise rock world by storm with Sides E and F (Rococo Records) KK Rampage are back with much sharper pop sensibilities and a beautiful take on romance and raw emotion. Balancing relentless experimentation and polished pop imperfection KKR continue on fearless, imperceptible, switching gears between heaven and hell on the highway of death. Sure to be one of the most seminal Pop-Damaged-Noise records of all time, ''Without Feelings'' will leave you with a broken heart and a raging hard-on.

Rococo Records apologizes for any confusion in regards to the Graveyards Part One artwork. The former picture was the ACTUAL artwork made by Mr. Olson and would've been impossible to reproduce exactly without charging $25 for a one-sided LP, which would've been more than we wanted to charge. Therefore, we made the b/w copy version per instructions from the artist. Part 2 will be a color copy on a blank dj sleeve and will be out in mid-October.

"From Paris, France. They dare to fuse garage punk, funky loops, and digital cut & paste and actually pull it off. Humm, dance, break things, jump up and down to the compu-punk groove these Frenchies lay down. As good as the 3.5 7 inches you might have heard by them."

click to enlarge K.K. Rampage- Sides E & F 7'' single Sold out vinyl color: assorted color RCC#0007  limited to 300
Who is KK Rampage? They're the band that crashes your favorite bands' show, throws powdered sugar everywhere, pukes on it and then rolls around in the disgusting puke paste. They're the band that knows what high school girls were made for. They are the holocaust. What is the Side E & F 7inch? Their first true sell-out effort. Recorded by the man they call “The Next Steve Albini”, Sides E & F is the heaviest record this side of 1977. It not only continues the amazing growth KK has shown since replacing the original drummer, but also takes it to a startling new level. Louder than sound and brighter than the sun, this record will blast you through the gates of Valhalla. Imagine Sun Ra crossed with a gasoline fire, imagine The Beatles... actually in a gasoline fire. This record shows you that just because it’s violent, misogynistic and heavily drugged, that doesn't mean it can't be overwhelmingly beautiful.

click to enlarge Dead Machines/John Wiese - collaboration 12'' LP  Sold out vinyl colors: black or solid magenta RCC#0006  limited to 500
"Best Dead Machines ever. In the company of avant soundist John Wiese (Sissy Spacek/Sunn O)))) they spend the first half of side one crunching on debris before settling into the most beautiful slow-burning comedown this side of Mirror’s Visiting Star. Side two is the perfect launchpad for your dreamboat, with John and Tovah Olson adding beautifully bruised coronas of green/blue tone to a deep slow-cycling drone, breaking into fragile gulfs of fall-apart, then swooning straight back into the zone. Jaw-droppingly beautiful and one of the heaviest spins at VT HQ of late." - volcanictongue.com

click to enlarge My Cat Is An Alien - There's A Flame...Sometimes 12'' LP $12 postage paid vinyl colors: black or (sapphire blue is sold out) RCC#0005  limited to 500
"The last few MCIAA LPs have seen the Opalio brothers take some giant fuckin leaps, pushing the music well beyond the gravity of the early LPs/CDs and out into an even more personally blasted universe. This latest, beautifully packaged LP comes in a limited hand-numbered edition of 500 copies and documents some of their most minimal and vehement electronic compositions. Indeed, if it wasn’t for the slow pad of drum skins, parts of this could almost pass for a pared-down post-Whitehouse investigation of eviscerated power electronics. A beautiful late-night spin. Recommended." - volcanictongue.com

"Kiss The Pig takes the band's punishing, abrasive sound to its far opposite extreme. Easily the most hateful, destructive, and super-fast material TItD has ever composed, Kiss The Pig is a violent depiction of life in today's America. Real and uncensored, Kiss The Pig stares you right in the face, delivering agitated agro-metal filled with feelings and emotions so black, you'll want to die."

""Featuring ex-members of Camera Obscura, Freedom From Saturn, and Radio Wendy. A towering wall of sick, invisible sound so loud it flaps your pant legs and shakes your teeth loose from their shiny pink gums. Their sound is big, thick, loud, and dense. It's tough to tell where the guitars end and the bass begins. "From the dark-electro intro song…to the end of the album, this CD is filled with all sorts of fun moody noise that can go from making you dance to making you go into a corner where you curl up into a ball and weep." –No-Fi Magazine

"It’s Southern rock from insane Yankees. It’s deer-huntin’ music. It’s the kind of shit your dad won’t admit he used to rock out to when he was your age. In short, it’s just good old-fashioned nasty, drunken, loud rock ’n’ roll that doesn’t mean a goddamn thing." - NYPress

click to enlarge Something About Vampires and Sluts - Self-titled 7'' single $3.50 postage paid vinyl colors: black or pink RCC#0001 limited to 500
"Sporting a Stonesy strut and a New Orderesque mixture of man and machine, Something about Vampires and Sluts have made a 7” that perfectly accentuates the indie scene's current "dance it up" attitude. The very song titles suggest a bad-ass brashness that's anything but ironic; this is the product of a generation ready to reclaim the dance floor for the punk-minded. The brand new 7” is sure to create havoc on your record player, so give it a spin — and don't be surprised if you can't keep still."
