Re.sort (LP)
sora
A glitchy and sunny paradise. This record makes me feel like a fish in a digital ocean; an ocean so vibrant,textured, and filled with many little details. It’s Interesting how it sounds so natural yet is made with digital parts. One of my favorite records I found this year

Submarine (LP)
The Marías
I’ve been following The Marías since their debut EPs ‘Superclean Vol I & II’ I’ve been addicted to their sound ever since. Submarine, their second LP, does not disappoint. Hauntingly ethereal vocals with tight dreamy indie instrumentals make for one of my favorite pop/rock records of the year

AMAMA (LP)
Crumb
Dreamy, ethereal, and atmospheric. Crumb returns with possibly my favorite record of theirs yet. Perfect vibrations for a stroll in the sun

Zero Woman-Red Handcuffs (1974) (BLU)
This is an insane ride in the Pinky Violence sub genre. You are in for some extreme violence, catchy soundtrack themes and hardcore nudity. It stars Miki Sugimoto. The poster paint colored blood splatters like nobodies business in this one!

Arcana Rising (LP)
Coffin Storm
This is Fenriz’s new project that sounds nothing like his other bands Darkthrone or Isengard. Fenriz’s voice is infectious and blends well with the Manilla Road-esque soundscapes.

Rolling Thunder (1977) (BLU)
This is a rare gritty revenge film that inspired Tarantino. It has William Devane with a sawed off shotgun and hook hand. His girlfriend is played by Linda Haynes (Human Experiments). Franklin from Texas Chainsaw makes an appearance toward the brutal climax.

Revenge of the living dead girls. (1987) (BLU)
This one was a fun surprise! It’s a French zombie flick that blows the only other ones I can think of (Zombie Lake and Shockwaves) out of the water!
It’s similar to Jean Rollin’s Grapes of Death but instead of contaminated wine, it’s milk that creates the zombie outbreak.

Candy Snatchers 1973 (BLU)
This is a trashy Last House on the Left style scuzzfest that came out before the aforementioned classic. I had the bootleg VHS tape. It is based on a true kidnapping case that happened in Florida. Fair warning, It has a depressingly heavy subject matter if you can handle it. For sickos only!

Nell’ ora blu (LP)
Uncle Acid and the deadbeats
This is an experiment worth checking out, it has dialogue with Italian actors. This album is basically an Italian crime film in audio form. Hopefully some visuals will surface but until then this for me is the record of the summer.
