Mac Blackout - The Western Blue [2009]

Mac Blackout is the guy from FUNCTIONAL BLACKOUTS and DAILY VOID, two of the greatest sounding bands ever. He also sings in the new band on HOZAC - MICKEY which is also great. This is his third solo album out on FDH RECORDS. It's weird and it's catchy. Pure synth driven mind melting brilliance.

Buy HERE.

Tokyo Electron - AZ 238 LP [2009]

Released on both FDH and Certified PR records, AZ 238 features ten tracks recorded back in 2007/2008 and this record is probably their last release (probably cuz Ryan Wong started Earthmen And Strangers and Tokyo Electron's drummer moved away). I like AZ 238 much more than Tokyo Electron's previous releases. Songs on this one are more textured, defined and i dig that psychedelic desert vibe this album brings. Also, you should listen to Ryan's band Earthmen And Strangers i mentioned before. Lovro posted their s\t record here.

Women - Women 7'' [2008]

Not to be mistaken with the shoegazy pop band of the same name from Canada this Philadelphia group plays trashy hardcore in the vein of DEAN DIRG and HENRY FIAT'S OPEN SORE. This is their first release on FDH RECORDS. Six dirty, fast and furious songs in just over ten minutes. Awesome record.

The band is currently finishing their first full length. Again on FDH RECORDS.

Earthmen and Strangers - S/T [2009]

from EXAMINER.com:

"The songs enter cosmic, love-burned terrain, reaching for the stars lyrically and sonically. Softer and more free-form than the hard-edged Tokyo Electron, Earthmen and Strangers isn't afraid to wear its heart on its sleeve, as with the heartbroken "Deceitful Lines" and the yearning "Turn the Page." It's still rock 'n' roll, mind you -- the band's rhythm section drives straight ahead like a truck on a desert back road -- but there's a psychedelic sense of grandness and wonder in the record's grooves, as in songs like "Naked to the Stars" and the epic "Desert Snow."

Out on FDH RECORDS.
