Album:KRAUT! DIE INNOVATIVEN JAHRE DES KRAUTROCK 1968 - 1979
Label:BEAR FAMILY RECORDS
Format:2CD
Genre:KRAUTROCK/GERMAN PROG ROCK
The third part in our four-volume series on the history of progressive rock in Germany. Cross-label documentation of the only relevant German contribution to the international phenomenon of rock music. Progressive Rock from Germany! 2-CD (trifold digisleeve) with 112(!)-page illustrated booklet, 23 tracks. Total playing time approx. 133 minutes. Towards the end of the 1960s, German bands began their first attempts to emancipate themselves stylistically from their US and British role models. ProgRock and Pchychedelia from our country were initially smiled at internationally and disparagingly called 'Krautrock' by cult DeeJay John Peel, among others. Unorthodox formations could not be pigeonholed, and so a scene with a wide musical range was created. This third part is dedicated to the south of Germany and presents popular bands such as Embryo, Kraan, Volker Kriegel, Guru Guru next to Action, Dzyan, Sahara, or Octopus and Orange Peel. Mostly remastered from digital tape copies by Marcus Heumann without wasting the original sound. In most cases remastered from digital tape copies by Marcus Heumann without wasting the original sound. Compiled and commented on 112(!) pages by Burghard Rausch (DeeJay, vinyl collector, drummer, radio presenter/author and book editor). An exquisite selection of the exciting and influential bands of those days, some of which caused a sensation far beyond Germany. The four volumes are regionally structured. The third part deals with the south of Germany. All editions are compiled by Burghard Rausch and commented on in detail. The publisher of several books on 'Rock in Germany', radio author and presenter, drummer (Agitation Free, among others), vinyl collector and DeeJay with enormous expertise has already been in charge of the NDW ( Neue Deutsche Welle ) series for Bear Family. We are convinced that 'Kraut!' will be the most comprehensive CD documentation of this era, which has shaped the history of rock music in Germany, licensed by various rights holders! With the release of KRAUT!, Bear Family marks another milestone on the way to a comprehensive documentation of the history of popular music in Germany from the early 1960s to the mid-1980s. 'Smash! Boom! Bang!' covers the complete history of Beat music in Germany on a total of 30 individual CDs; the CD documentation 'Für wen wir singen - Liedermacher in Deutschland', consisting of four triple CD sets, describes the singer/songwriter scene with 274 individual songs, supplemented by the 10 CD box set 'Die Burg Waldeck Festivals 1964-1969'. And, finally 'Aus grauer Städte Mauern - Die Neue Deutsche Welle 1997-1985', Bear Family's four-part double CD series with popular and weird sound examples and a total of about 600(!) pages of accompanying text. These releases will also be available via Code 7 at a later date.

Band:ICARUS PEELS ACID REIGN
Album:SHALLOW OCEANS
Label:BILLYWITCH
Format:CD
Genre:Rock
The first release on the newly formed Billywitch Records is unleashed this November and is by your favourite power-trio Icarus Peel s Acid Reign. A three-piece fronted by Icarus, the Acid Reign is much more than just a showpiece for Peel s solos. They perform songs that are memorable and psychedelically deep, with heavy guitar dynamics thrown in for good measure. The interplay between the band is essential and extraordinary, each song is given space to develop new horizons and is never played the same way twice. Shallow Oceans is their second album and like their debut it takes its influences from The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Cream, The Groundhogs and Taste. Like the classic power-trios that inform them, Acid Reign soar from light to heavy, from minimalism to baroque and from dreamy reveries to gothic nightmares. If your taste is for extended guitar-driven acid rock you need look, nor listen, no further than Icarus Peel's Acid Reign. Their new album Shallow Oceans skilfully recreates a time when the world s most inventive guitarists where taking the instrument into uncharted territory but with great songs to tickle your earholes. Limited edition Features hidden bonus track not on the LP. TRACK LISTING Half Space 08:22 / Shallow Oceans 07:34 / We Come In Peace 05:35 Divided 03:06 / Dance Upon The Moon 06:29 / Symphony Of Groove 04:04 / Wishful Thinking 04:45 / Snakes 02:05

Band:LORE CITY
Album:ALCHEMICAL TASK
Label:LORE CITY MUSIC
Format:LP & Download
Genre:PSYCH/POST-ROCK/DREAM POP
Alchemical Task (2020) is the third studio album from art rock duo Lore City, whose sound combines elements of psychedelia, post-rock, and dream pop. It has been six years since their last release, "Kill Your Dreams." and subsequent move to Portland, Oregon. Lore City’s music is born from the transformational power of sound. They create from the belief that we are all one, and that we’ve been here before. Song fragments are shimmering all around us, ready to transport. They tune in and transcribe. Sonic soundscapes give way to archetypal figures and voices materialize. LP jackets are printed on reverse board stock — featuring two artworks by Nancy L Greco. The lyric sheet is printed on uncoated paper stock. The all-black vinyl LPs come in white poly-lined sleeves — and a download code is included.

Band:KING SIZE TAYLOR
Album:TAYLOR MADE
Label:BEAR FAMILY RECORDS
Format:LP 10
Genre:Rock
1-LP (10inch) plus CD, 12-page booklet, LP 12 tracks, CD 27 tracks, limited edition. King Size Taylor - one of the great British rockers and member of the legendary Hamburg Star-Club family! Taylor was always a rocker and less of a beat musician. LP/CD combo; only 4 tracks are also featured on King Size Taylor's CD in Bear Family's 'The Brits Are Rocking' series 'Taylor Made' focuses on his best rockers recorded for Ariola and the rare Philips single Somebody's Always Trying. Twenty-five of the twenty-seven songs on the CD were recorded in 1957/58 in the living room of Sam Hardie, the Dominoes pianist, Taylor's band - legally available for the first time on this particular release. In the large-format booklet with liner notes by Marc Mittelacher, there are plenty of photos from Taylor's private archive showing him and stars of rock 'n' roll in the 50s. Carefully mastered and with a photo postcard originally signed by King Size Taylor as a bonus! We guarantee pure listening pleasure! Especially in Germany, King Size Taylor was known in the early sixties as a regular guest in Hamburg's Star-Club. In the Hanseatic city he performed more than 250 gigs between 1962 and 1964 and recorded exclusively in Germany during this time. Due to the creation of legends around the young Beatles, King Size Taylor also ran under the popular label 'Beat'. But on closer inspection Taylor was and always remained the real rocker from the British Isles. After his first musical attempts in a skiffle band (1957), the guitarist and singer, who was born in Liverpool on November 12, 1939, soon founded a rock 'n' roll outfit, which performed under King Size Taylor And The Dominoes from 1960 onwards and moved to Hamburg in 1962. Ariola released live recordings from the Star-Club. An album recorded a little later, 'Let's Do The Slop, Twist, Madison, Hully Gully ...' was released by the German Polydor label - under the pseudonym The Shakers. Single releases were also released in the UK, including Money, Whole Lotta Lovin' and Hippy Hippy Shake. Like the other numbers on the original LPs, these songs were cover versions of the hottest rock and R&B stars of their time. Track list 10"LP: Side A) 01 Bad Boy 02 All Around The World 03 Slippin' And Slidin' 04 Hello Josephine 05 Looking For My Baby 06 Saw My Baby With Another Guy Side B) 07 Somebody's Always Trying 08 Stupidity 09 Heeby Jeebies 10 Short On Love 11 Lipstick, Powder And Paint 12 Good Golly Miss Molly Track list bonus CD: 01 Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On (vocals by Arthur Baker) 02 Baby (vocals by Charlie Flynn) 03 Great Balls Of Fire (vocals by Arthur Baker) 04 Guitar Boogie 05 Roll Over Beethoven (vocals by Arthur Baker) 06 So Long (vocals by Arthur Baker) r 07 I Want You To Know (vocals by Arthur Baker) 08 Mean Woman Blues (vocals by Arthur Baker) 09 Autumn Leaves 10 Lend Me Your Comb (vocals by King Size Taylor) 11 Matchbox (vocals by King Size Taylor) 12 Good Golly Miss Molly (vocals by King Size Taylor) 13 Whole Lotta Shakin' Going On (vocals by King Size Taylor) 14 Guitar Boogie 15 Shortnin' Bread Rock (vocals by Charlie Flynn) 16 Roll Over Beethoven (vocals by King Size Taylor)

Band:CURTIS GORDON
Album:DRAGGIN WITH CURTIS GORDON
Label:BEAR FAMILY RECORDS
Format:LP 10
Genre:ROCK N ROLL
1-LP vinyl (10inch), booklet, 12 tracks Finally - legendary Curtis Gordon's rockabilly recordings on 10inch vinyl, original masters from 1955 to 1959! In addition to ten Mercury titles, two 1959 recordings for Dollie Records. For the first time both versions of the rockabilly classic Draggin' on one album! Plus rock 'n' roll classics like Rock, Roll, Jump And Jive or Mobile Alabama. For the first time on a Curtis Gordon compilation: the honky-tonk ballad Blue Lifetime. In addition, a richly illustrated booklet tells Gordon's story, including the mysterious story behind the two Draggin' versions! An absolute must for Rockabilly fans, collectors and vinyl freaks alike! Curtis Gordon Although Curtis Gordon never scored a hit during his career, his legendary rockabilly recordings, made for Mercury Records in the 1950s, established him as a rockabilly legend. The fact that he began recording country music and Western swing in the early 1950s only became known worldwide with the Bear Family releases of the 1980s and 1990s. The legend status got manifested when Gordon performed live again after years of musical abstinence headlining the Viva Las Vegas Festival in 2001. Draggin' This 10inch vinyl disc compresses all of Curtis Gordon's rockabilly classics, enriched with a country ballad stylistically inspired by Hank Williams and written by Luke McDaniel. In addition, two of a total of five rare songs that Gordon recorded for the Dollie label in 1959, which are considered the last recordings before his long absence. Enclosed with the record is an accompanying booklet, which contains rare photos and illustrations as well as a lot of information and a short biography and which tells the mysterious story about the two versions of the Curtis Gordon classic Draggin'. Both versions were released in 1956, but only one of them was reissued in later decades. So the ominous story of Draggin' has remained unsolved until today. We bring light into the darkness, but more will not be revealed here! Track list: Side A) 01 Draggin' (without echo - U.S. version) 02 Rock, Roll, Jump And Jive 03 Sixteen 04 Mobile, Alabama 05 Cry, Cry 06 Oh Lonely Heart Side B) 07 From Memphis To New Orleans 08 Sittin' On Top 09 So Tired Of Crying 10 Baby Please Come Home 11 Blue Lifetime 12 Draggin' (with echo - European version)

Band:FRANK VIRTUE & THE VIRTUES
Album:ROCK
Label:BEAR FAMILY RECORDS
Format:CDD
Genre:ROCK N ROLL
Frank Virtue is a significant name when it comes to the history of the Philadelphia sound. The state of Pennsylvania with its metropolis Philadelphia, affectionately known as Philly by Americans, was a true melting pot of musical virtuosos during the rock 'n' roll era. Of course, one immediately thinks of Bill Haley, Charlie Gracie and Chubby Checker. The name Frank Virtue fits in seamlessly here. Not only did his studio work until the 1970s provide a solid foundation for Northern Soul, but years earlier he had already caused a stir with various rock 'n' roll formations.

Genre:ROCK N ROLL
1-CD (Digipak) with 36-page booklet, 37 tracks. Total playing time approx. 79 min.

The focus is on tougher Rock 'n' Roll numbers - this is not 'La Bamba'! The title song by Trini Lopez, The Right To Rock - a symbol of oppression! Famous Chicano artists such as Ritchie Valens and Freddy Fender take turns with lesser known colleagues like Los Locos Del Ritmo, Los Xochimilcas and Los Gibson Boys.

Album:THAT'LL FLAT…GIT IT! VOL. 35 MERCURY & LIMELIGHT LABELS
Label:BEAR FAMILY RECORDS
Format:CDD
Genre:ROCK N ROLL
Founded in 1945, Chicago's Mercury Records rapidly accrued major label status and grew into a full-service label, its massive roster encompassing everything from blues and R&B to country and jazz and a wealth of pop (the logo was a leader in covering R&B hits for the pop market). Mercury also signed a small army of quality rockabilly and rock and roll artists during the mid-to-late 1950s, and they're the focus of this bountiful collection. Blistering classics by a pre-fame Conway Twitty, Memphis mainstay Eddie Bond, and the still-active Narvel Felts are on board, along with rare gems by Curtis Gordon (his torrid Draggin' appears without the usual startling reverb effects)

Label:TOPSY TURVY
Format:LP
Genre:SOUL/GARAGE ROCK
Tokyo-based Garage-Soul band WINSTONES finally release their debut album and while the CD-version is released by Radio Underground Records, the LP-version is released by Soundflat Records sister-company Topsy-Turvy Records! Over the past decade these four boys have played in numerous garage/punk/rock-bands (including legendary punk-rock band Teengenerate) before they formed this new musical project moving towards a funky, soulful New Orleans-R&B-influence, yet keeping their punk'n'roll-wildness to their sound. These four Japanese boys sure have a lot of soul in their veins; their album Sunshine City consists of 14 cover versions of soul/R&B-classics. Ain't It A Sin (Charles Bradley) gets you into the cool groove of the record right away and you'll find yourself moving along to the rhythm and chanting along to the classic mod hymn Somebody Stole My Thunder (originally by Georgie Fame) or uptempo soul stomper I Was Born To Lose Out (James & Bobby Purify) or their version of Down Home Girl (Alvin Robinson). Unique screaming vocals by singer Motor Ken and the band's refined sound take you through their versatile selection of tunes, that one cannot get enough of! TRACK LISTING A: 1. Get Carter Theme 2.

Be enchanted by the Enchanting Newretro World , rock and boogie along to Old House Boogie , shout along with That Girl's Shout and finally get overwhelmed by Samehada Typhoon . Samehada Shiriko & Dynamite have a highly unique, very Japanese, slightly crazy sound one can hardly compare with others, yet it is somewhere in between nostalgic Japanese Group-sounds, 80's- Mentai-Rock and Girl-Garage-Punk with a few 70's- and hardrock-influences here and there certainly one of a kind!

"Oyez, oyez, oyez! All good citizens draw near and harken unto these words. For it is grave news this ere night, grave news indeed. Be it known to all ye, that there has been another murder. A most gruesome murder, and the killer is still on the loose. So good people ye, lock up your windows, bracen your doors and be safe on this night, for all is not well. All is not well" The Crier's words hung heavy in the early eve. Shutters were closed and the townsfolk scattered to their homes as empty beggars' hands withdrew to the gutter leaving the once bustling crooked cobblestone streets now but a desolate spiral of gas lit flicker and elongated shadows. Step back in time to the festering stench and mire of Victorian London courtesy of Dead Melodies and Beyond the Ghost.

Format:CDD
Genre:DOOM JAZZ
Cold streams of drum 'n' clarinet 'n' bass: -S- plays dark occvlt funk exclusively. "Zabijanie Czasu" ("The Killing of Time") is the first part of a planned trilogy devoted to the notion of Time. Awkward meditations over the obliqueness of Chronos and its imaginary emanations. An experiment in imagination: accomplished future past and perpetual incompleteness composed for 110bpm and 26:02 minutes. A blindfold breaking of the sigil of horror and solace. A shiftless immersion into the formless chasm of fertility and decline. An outburst of furious hope and utmost exasperation. TIME DOES NOT HEAL. TIME THWARTS.

Band:VVLVA
Album:13. WINTER
Label:H42 Records
Format:7
Genre:HARD ROCK/KRAUTROCK/70S RETRO ROCK
"A real retro rock surprise!" The verdict of eclipsed author Walter Sehrer on Vvlva is clear. The young Aschaffenburg quintet with the explicit band name is inspired by the hard rock of the early seventies, just like Siena Root did recently, when bands like Deep Purple and Uriah Heep roared Hammond mightily and sang with a heavy guitar in a duet. If you have a heart for bands from the underground, like rock to classic hard rock with psychedelic impact and have a passion for retro musically and visually, you will love VVLVA and their new single 13. WINTER. With 13. WINTER, the german krautrock guintet VVLVA delievers a timeless rock epic song. The distinctive singing, sometimes dreamy, sometimes full of energy, is accompanied by a magical mixture between 1970s uptempohardrock and progressive-psychedelic elements.

In the series she is sent on a difficult mission: Her job is to arrange a peace agreement between Turkey and representatives of the Kurds. Peacemaker was directed by the renowned Finnish director A.J. Annila (Sauna) and next to Björklund stars a number of internationally known actors, including Richard Sammel (Inglorious Basterds) and Louise Peterhoff (The Bridge). The tenpart series is set in locations in Turkey, Syria, Finland and Spain. In its opening minutes, Ann-Mari puts her entire career at risk when she publicly declares that a state-owned Finnish company is involved in illegal international arms trade. In the “real world”, Finland is the country that is sending the highest number of diplomats and ambassadors abroad, men and women who work in countries like Afghanistan, Turkey, Indonesia or Saudi Arabia. During the preparations for Peacemaker producers Johanna Enäsuo and Marko Röhr conducted detailed interviews with many of these Finnish diplomats

Band:ARRAYAN PATH
Album:THE MARBLE GATES TO APEIRON
Label:PITCH BLACK RECORDS
Format:CD
Genre:EPIC POWER METAL
The Epic Power Metal force that is ARRAYAN PATH returns with the band's 8th full-length, a follow-up to 2018's double-disc album "Archegonoi". The new ARRAYAN PATH album is much heavier than its predecessor and more on the "up-tempo" scale, while at the same time maintaining all the characteristics and trademarks that make up the unmistakable style and sound of ARRAYAN PATH. Nicholas Leptos, the band's driving force (also current vocalist of legendary WARLORD) comments: "We worried less about doing something 'out of the ordinary' and more about writing good melodic metal songs. There was also more collaboration between the band members, maybe more than ever before!" Lyric-wise, even though the new album is not a concept album, it does have a common theme running among the songs, one that deals with human nature as it has developed through the ages. For this reason the album is "divided" into 3 parts, with each part made up of 3 songs: The Past, The Present and The Future. Even though the subject matter might seem varied between songs, as already mentioned there is a central theme that revolves around human reaction and response; from the destruction of our planet, to people's quarrels regarding the pandemic, life, death, religion and mourning; and of course, somewhere in all that, the band's favorite subject since forever: mythology! For fans of: Iron Maiden, Rhapsody, Kamelot, Helloween, Crimson Glory, Warlord

Band:ETHEREAL SCOURGE
Album:JUDGEMENT AND RESTORATION
Label:SOUNDMASS
Format:CD
Genre:DEATH/GROOVE METAL
ETHEREAL SCOURGE were a band from Adelaide, Australia, who formed in 1992. They released a demo in 1995 and their full-length – Judgement And Restoration – in 1997 on Rowe Productions… then disappeared from the scene. Soundmass are happy to be re-issuing Judgement And Restoration to make it readily available again. Many fans believe that this album never got the attention that it deserved and we agree. Ethereal Scourge perform a deft combination of death metal and groove metal with progressive elements. Their outstanding musicianship creates a unique sound – it is heavy and aggressive yet melodic and flowing (think: early Amorphis). Every song is strong, with tempo and style shifts that hold your attention. The song-writing forms powerful and intense compositions that leave a lasting impression, and their use of tribal rhythms (à la Sepultura) heightens this impact. What takes it to another level, though, is the poetic, stirring lyrics that are delivered in an extraordinarily emotive style. These passion-filled vocals combined with the exceptional music result in an album that is simply… majestic. The 2020 Soundmass re-issue of Judgement And Restoration is completely remastered and includes the 4-song demo as bonus tracks. To match the music, this version of this classic Ethereal Scourge album comes with a stunning new layout.

Band:GRAVE FORSAKEN
Album:THE FOOTSTEPS OF GOD
Label:SOUNDMASS
Format:CD
Genre:HEAVY METAL/THRASH
2020 has been a strange year, but if there’s one thing you can depend on, it’s the certainty that a new GRAVE FORSAKEN album is never far off. These four Aussie’s are always cooking up something new. When Grave Forsaken briefly reunited their original line-up in 2018 the plan was to record an album that harkened back to the early recordings. During the making of the album guitarist Elias Salmela made the decision to leave the band, paving the way for Luke Gallagher to return to the fold after a short absence from the line-up. Original Grave Forsaken members Vaughan Gregory, Matt Skipworth and Tim Steadman had recorded their parts when Luke came in and added his rhythm and lead guitar. The result is their impressive new album The Footsteps Of God. The band’s early classic metal influences are mixed with their later thrash metal stylings, so there is something for everyone who has enjoyed Grave Forsaken over the course of their 16 years. Everyone knows it wouldn’t be Grave Forsaken without spiritual themes and catchy metal tunes. Tracks such as “Warriors of the Cross”, “Calm in the Storm” and “Temple of Crucifixion” fit the bill perfectly, providing that unmistakable Grave Forsaken sound. Released by Soundmass and with cover art and layout by Scott Waters, this is an album that will bring a smile to all Grave Forsaken fans.

2020 release. The third album reflects the new era of Re-Armed. The Era of Precarity is fully conceptual album where each track dives into dystopian-world that you would never want to live in.

The songs contain aggressive sound of death/thrash metal and groovy death metal while adding new influences; crushing stoner rock, fast and brutal black metal and even classic heavy metal! Even the production is now on the next level. With our highly skilled sound engineer and experienced band members we were able to capture the best tones the band has ever offered.

Band:SHAIDAR LOGOTH
Album:CHAPTER III: THE VOID GOD
Label:CAVSAS
Format:CD
Genre:Black Metal
Shaidar Logoth return with their brand new third album "Chapter III: The Void God", a massive three-sided 2XLP that that sees the Minnesota black metal specters completing both musically and narratively their inaugural trilogy opened in 2011 with "Chapter I: The Peddler". The Peddler has become The Ritualist, and now summoned The Void God to consume the world and rebuild it in its own image. Three years in the making, "The Void God" sees Shaidar Logoth dwell in familiar torments as well as evolve into a new transfiguration of themselves, dominated by a more defiant and unpredictable experimentation of moods and torn by a more profound and enigmatic dualism than ever before. Throughout the four monstrous songs that comprise the forty-eight minute doble LP, the band's sound shapeshifts dramatically, designing increasingly claustrophobic and erratic trajectories and leaving the listener as helpless bystander to a disfigured and mangled ritual, while the songs evolve in and out of each other in a constant duality of ominous abjection and puzzling beauty. Sonically ungraspable but stylistically grounded in the fiercest and proudest black metal tradition, on "Chapter III: The Void God" Shaidar Logoth have conjured the same inverted and lurid atmospheres we've seen in bands like Leviathan, Misþyrming and Sargeist, while their unique and unmatched penchant in eviscerating beauty and grace has probably given birth to their most luminous and magnificent album to date. Co-Released with Sentient Ruin. CD Edition of 300 copies in 6 panel Digisleeve, gatefold jacket with metallic silver print and black flood inside the pocket. 4 Tracks. Running Time 48:04
