This is a compilation of various artists who have united to make a contribution to the memory of George Floyd in the wake of his murder by the Minneapolis Police. We call for justice for George Floyd and all victims of police brutality and systemic racism in the USA and the World.
All proceeds will go to the George Floyd Memorial Fund and the Justice and Equality Fund which raises funds for multiple organizations to fight racial injustice and police brutality.
This is a live performance recorded on 25th november, 2017 at l’AJB Centre culturel Marcel Pagnol in a small french town called Bures Sur Yvette. We played with Pogo Car Crash Control (who are a big band here in France who play festivals like Hellfest and stuff like that) and Toybloid (who are another big band here in France that play big concerts with big bands and stuff.) So it was a pretty exciting event for everyone!
The songs are presented in the order we played them warts and all!
Even after playing over 250 concerts, we’re still not 100% used to big stages, stage monitors and bright lights so it was a bit of an experience for us. The audience was great and people were really enthusiastic. All in all it was a great experience.
Bures sur Yvette is a tiny french town but a suprisingly large amount of cool bands that have rocked the french underground come from there. That’s why the french punk band, Les Dead Boobs, named the town, “The Capital of Punk!”
I recently found the USB key with the concert on and told myself “hey, dude! You gotta mix that shit and put it out!” So I did.
Come see us play in a small bar. That’s the best venue for rock! Big halls are too damn weird! But this album is a cool part of our history! Enjoy!

Taken From Feeding Tube Records:
Wow! Great new LP by the full trio version of Maine’s Big Blood. Colleen, Caleb and Quinnisa are all present and accounted for at every turn on this one!
Unlike their last LP, The Daughter’s Union (FTR 459) (which seemed like some sort of experiment involving glam-rock-readymades), Do You Wanna? is awash with crazily re-imagined girl group dynamics. Some of these tight-sparkly-dress recreations have a savage teenage authority, but others wiggle more like dreams stolen from the nodes of Julee Cruise, Angelo Badalmanetti or David Lynch. Sometimes there are style-ghosts standing in all the expected places, but none of them are behaving the way we’d expect.
But I do not wish to paint the sound here as monochromatic. There are many of Big Blood’s classic elements employed with trademark pluck — witchy patches recalling early Spires That in the Sunset Rise, small balloons filled with glitter & gas-pulses, bubbling pools of pure psychedelic confusion. But the strange sophistication of children wearing Diana Ross masks is something new. And it’s such a mesmerizing vision, I find myself paying extra attention to it.
But then again, that’s just the surface. The lyrics here are of a piece with Big Blood’s patented approach of creating surrealist poetry in a rural and arrestingly original American style. Quinissa’s newly rampant influence seems to be grounding some of the lyrical imagery in more quotidian scenes (”Insecure Kids,” etc.), but with the parental examples she’s afforded on a daily basis, this may just be a phase. But whatever else it is, Do You Wanna? is another amazing spin from Big Blood. And there’s even a poster you can pin on your memory board. Talk about your win/win situations!

King Elizabeth – The Awakening (VULP-0162)
Picking up from where King Elizabeth left off in 2012 with Miami, The Awakening contains all of the mesmerizing synth hooks and passionate vocal lines you’d hope for. The sultry “Mother” and churning title track “The Awakening” are among my favorites in this dark gleam of brilliance — 7 years in the making! — that Vulpiano Records is delighted to present.
Words from the artist:
It’s been a long journey to get to this point with many songs being written and recorded but never feeling right for the time. A lot of songs were scrapped and others placed on the back burner to come back to with fresh ears. Maybe it was a quest for perfection when perfection doesn’t exist, or just falling out of love with the songs at the time! It’s all contributed to the 7 years it’s taken to complete this record.
I had a new experience with writing and recording songs for this album. I usually have a vision for the album with the songs interconnected in some way. This time, I was just writing one song at a time—the ideas were for the individual songs, I had no greater vision. I had the lyrics and the music in my mind for that song and that song only at the time, then I’d move onto the next.
Over time I realised that the songs that stood out for me fitted together as well as any other album I’ve ever made—if not better. The beauty of this is that each song can really hold its own and doesn’t need a ‘before’ song or an ‘after’ song. The process was lengthy, but then when they all did come together it was an awakening. I hope this album awakens something inside everyone who kindly takes the time to listen to it.

feat Hugin at the guitar
“This album is the first work I’ve done in 2019 and also part of a series of instrumental works that reflect upon absence in different ways, in a pentalogy. All of them expresses what I felt after the latest political misfortunes in my country (Brazil) and overall social-political state of mind in the world. In “Insomniac Dreams” – the absence of rest and sleep to convey life in its existence. In “Antimanicomial” – the absence of sanity in its helplessness in a political system that doesn’t give a care. In “Duets for Balogh” – the absence of a friend, despite his presence in sound conversations. In “Cinzas” – the absence of care on nature, a mourn for dead rivers. And this, “Longes” is about absence of faith. However, there is no particular order, nor any sound similarities for this pentalogy, despite being linked thematically. “Insomniac Dreams” was the first published one, but “Longes” was the one recorded first, with later-on finalizations.
”Longes” is my second work in which I play electric guitar (a Telecaster) as a main instrument (first one was “Electric Ramblings” (2014) in most of the tracks). It was conceived as a series of variations on the final motif from the coda of the song “Muito Mais Longe do que o Bastante”, which was originally recorded for the album “La Géographie sans Regret” (2012), made in collaboration with Mehata Sentimental Legend. In this album, I explore on electric guitar both timbral and electronic experimentations whereas the themes are extended without regard on time and space, despite having their own implicit structure. Apart from the last track (X), the pieces were all improvised in their performances. Somehow, it’s a spiritual manifesto on struggling for survival, in electric mantras; against all odds, a life-affirming statement.”

“Milestones Remastered” is kind of a “Greatest Hits” compilation (total time about 80 minutes) of 15 fixed and remastered tracks (originally released 2002-2019). Album available on BONImedia and Bandcamp (https://fryvolic.bandcamp.com/album/milestones-remastered).
Fryvolic Art became quite popular using polish vintage DEFIL instruments made in Lubin (1947-2001: Dolnośląska Fabryka Instrumentów Lutniczych w Lubinie) and joining some DEFIL events, like “DEFIL – Memories Factory” exhibition in Lubin or “The Feel of DEFIL” guitar project by BONImedia (4 editions so far).
“Milestones” album is farewell release of Fryvolic Art transforming into new project: Mordor Bistro.
Snarg II delivers 8 un-skippable tracks of all hits no shits chiptune post-hardcore fusion. There is not an ounce of fat on this release and nothing is over looked. The synth lines are uplifting, the softer melodic sections gear up perfectly into heavy breakdowns and what could be considered the standard punk elements feel cool and comforting. Call and response as well as gang vocals provide a genuine sense of comradery and adventure. Snarg bring something very unique to the table that we are simply unable to find anywhere else in the Nintendocore timeline.
Hanover Hardcore Punk.

Unrequited love, the frustrations of modern life, Scallies shouting abuse at women from cars – The Tin Foil Hat Brigade talks about these, and more – all within a ten-minute blast of furious Game Boy noise and raw, emotional vocals. Or something like that, anyway.

Hutan hampir selalu menjadi referensi bagi kesunyian, meski sunyi tidak pernah benar-benar ada. Ranting-ranting bergoyang terhempas angin, diiringi daun-daun yang berguguran. Lalu, bunyi-bunyi gesekan, terkadang mendesis, mendesau, dan menderu, silih berganti mengisi celah-celah pepohonan. Lebih seksama lagi, sayup-sayup suara burung atau fauna lainnya bersahut-sahutan. Dan hutan, kita tahu, menjadi penopang kehidupan semesta: menjaga keseimbangan, tempat bagi air dan udara bereproduksi, menyimpan ragam sumber daya yang melimpah. Di beberapa masyarakat non-urban, keberadaannya disakralkan. Mitos membalutnya dan diimani orang-orang yang hidup di sekelilingnya. Hutan disucikan, sekaligus ditakuti, angker, wingit.
Tapi, hutan juga menyimpan teriakan-teriakan. Sebelum pemukiman menjalar liar, hutan adalah medan laga pertempuran. Pangeran Sambernyawa bertahan dari gempuran tentara gabungan Kompeni dan Mataram di hutan Sitakepyak. Atau, taktik perang gerilya yang menjadikan hutan tempat persembunyian, seperti saat Perang Revolusi Indonesia dan Perang Vietnam. Di hutan pula, pembantaian sering terjadi. Berita-berita acap kali mengabarkan penemuan jasad pembunuhan. Ada juga kisah tentang pembantaian besar, seperti di Indonesia paska 1965. Mereka yang simpatisan atau dituduh penganut paham kiri, banyak yang dibunuh di dalam hutan, menyisakan lubang-lubang kuburan massal.
