GIMME TINNITUS

Sometimes a compilation is just a label’s attempt at marketing itself. Other times, a compilation is a genuine slice of zeitgeist. And sometimes, a label puts out a compilation that will be “the perfect soundtrack to your next picnic or perhaps afternoon delight.” Well, that’s exactly what the Deathbomb Arc label is striving for with the CE 2010 compilation. Listen.

1. Girls in the Eighties – Awake but Not Aware (mp3)

2. Kiss Kiss Fantastic – Lovely

4. Coyote Clean Up – Pollution Shampoo (mp3)

BJ Rubin’s blog of his audio archiving activities is just flat out awesome. Furthermore, we look forward to more interesting releases from his record label, Dick Move. This years’ releases include recordings by Knyfe Hyts and Teengirl Fantasy plus let’s not forget the sandwich.
