Experimental, Noise, Harsh, Power Electronics; Vinyl LP and Insert - EX Used condition
Roman Torment present here with a side-long blasterpiece dubbed "The Gift of Grief". Total non-stop in-the-red wall of high-wired electronics geared to explode synapses. Witscher and Pacewicz keep all hands/feet/whatevers to the metal for the full twentyish minutes and spew out a dizzying juggernaut of blindingly fast, brutal, and surely harsh flat-out fucking noise. Totally worth the possibility of getting evicted over. Buckle up or down as you see fit. Feed the Dragon's side "Bromide Romance" is a mixed bag of junky electronics, UFO-transmitted soundwaves, buzzing matrices, robotic splurge and a whole lot else strewn methodically throughout the slow-evolving piece.
Industrial, Noise, Experimental, Power Electronics, Dark Ambient; Double Gatefold Vinyl LP - Ex Used condition
Breathing Problem, which consists of Rusty Kelley and Emelia McKay, have created an album called “Bed of Sex, Pit of Tar” that is another example of why Austin’s noise/experimental scene is a force to be reckoned with. “Bed of Sex” is a very heavy album to listen to. It’s often unsettling, which is exactly what it sets out to be. The album works best at setting a mood, sucking listeners into its heavy atmosphere for the entire 59 minutes. It evokes the image of a city slowly being destroyed in a way that’s tragic, but impossible not to watch. The last few songs show the aftermath of the destruction, and the album’s final track acts as the credits to the spectacle.

Experimental, Electronic, Industrial, Synth, Dark; Vinyl EP (2010) Ex Used condition
Contrepoison is the solo project of Pierre-Marc Tremblay, a young Canadian musician who’s been also involved in other extreme bands in the last years. This 4-track EP shows the darkest and most anguished side of the human feeling, where drum machines sound like heartbeats and synthesizers are as liquid as tears. Deep, somber vocals filled with sorrow and anger cap it all.
Grant Hart, Husker Du, Biography, Documentary, Music, Hardcore; DVD (2013)
Writing in City Pages, Reed Fischer said, "In spite of the myriad challenges of his personal and professional life -- the fire, the death of family members, his band's epic dissolution, drug addiction, and coming to terms with his sexual orientation -- Hart comes off as a wiser man for all of it. Hearing the way he describes his close emotional friendship with William S Burroughs is worth the price of admission on its own. Sure, there are numerous bits about Mr. Mould and Mr. Norton too, and they're mostly told with fondness for the fruit before it became poisoned. Hart's slow and deliberate retellings of his past convey an inner strength that hints at why Bechard wanted to spend so much time with him. Capping the tale with the beginnings of Hart's epic interpretation of John Milton's Paradise Lost, The Argument -- Chris Strouth has a lot more to say about the album here -- the story rests itself in the near-present at a high point in Hart's storied career. Not every stone was turned over in this tale, but they all at least got a firm jostling."

He wanted to change the world, and all he had was a little magazine... As publisher of Oz, the hippies' handbook and monument to psychedelia, Richard Neville was at the center of the 1960s cyclone of idealists, rock musicians, radicals, artist hustlers and high society. In Hippie Hippie Shake Richard Neville demythologises the 1960s in a highly amusing, colorful and provocative memoir of the times. It was the dawning of the Age of Aquarius... and then the hash hit the fan.

You've never seen a video remotely like this one. It haunts you long after you've seen it. The result of an enormous amount of archival research and highly professional writing and editing, this video brings alive the history and culture of circus sideshow "freaks." Dwarfs, giants, pin-heads, Siamese twins, monkey women, dog-faced men, people without legs and/or arms and those with miniature "twins" protruding from various parts of the body. They are all here in a fast-paced, feature-length color film laced with humor, compassion, historical knowlege and provocative social commentary. The film includes interviews with some of the characters, including a bearded lady and the charismatic last surviving circus "half lady." While almost hypnotically entertaining, this is a serious work that will remain the definitive visual study for years to come. This film is about very special human beings, who lived before scientific "final solutions" were possible. Their life stories, the film's remarkable interviews and its engaging narrative, all challenge the accepted wisdom about deformed people, not only whether they have a right to live, but whether they can live happy lives. Most important, whether they have something invaluable to contribute to the human family. This film will draw you back time and time again and bend your mind every viewing.
