WU-TANG CLAN- WU-TANG FOREVER
Wu Tang’s second album Wu-Tang Forever (1997) followed up on the massive success of Enter The Wu- Tang. With more elaborate production, soundtrack style violins & synths and the addition of protégée Cappadonna, the gang continued to tell stories about ghetto life, hoochie mamas and getting high as a kite. Standout tracks are “Reunited”, “For Heaven’s Sake” and “Visionz”, with their slightly off-beats and inventive use of samples, with great narratives to boot. Right from the get-go, Wu-Tang Forever is an outstanding and defining Hiphop record (on no less than EIGHT sides) that’s built to last.
The first pressing is available as a limited issue on clear vinyl!

TED NUGENT- CAT SCRATCH FEVER
Originally released in 1977, Cat Scratch Fever is the third studio album by Ted Nugent, and a very successful one: it went multi-Platinum and some say it’s his best album ever. Recorded in New York and London, the album saw the return of lead singer Derek St. Holmes, who had left the band during the recording of 1976’s Free-For-All. The album was the last one with his original solo band.
The title track (and single) “Cat Scratch Fever” is perhaps one of the best hard rock anthems of all time. This album is a real rock classic in the truest sense of the word!

Alvvays - Alvvays
(Release Date: Jul 22, 2014)
Alvvays are two women, three men, a crate of C-86 tapes and a love of jingle-jangle.
Molly Rankin and Kerri MacLellan grew up as next-door neighbours in Cape Breton, lifting fiddles and folk-songs. Heartbreaks of different shades soon entered their lives, as did the music of Teenage Fanclub and Belle & Sebastian. Similar noisy melancholy drifted over to Prince Edward Island, finding Alec O'Hanley, Brian Murphy and Philip MacIsaac.
Convening in Toronto, the group have been making music since dusk or maybe dawn, when stars were appearing or fading off. As a result, their debut self-titled album is both sun-splashed and twilit -- nine songs concealing drunkenness, defeat and death in tungsten-tinted pop that glitters like sea glass.
With needlepoint melody and verse, Rankin and O'Hanley's songs were recorded at Chad VanGaalen's Yoko Eno studio and mixed by Graham Walsh (Holy Fuck) and John Agnello (Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Kurt Vile).
The resultant album is loud and clear and sure. Flood your ears.
On 180-Gram Cream (Early Bird Edition - Limited to 300) and 180-Gram Electric Blue (In stores July 22)
