The Super Vacations
"001" LP (shdwply001)
"The Super Vacations make exploratory psychedelia without invoking many of the usual shorthand; no jams, no endless guitar solos, no purple loons. In their precise understanding of the deep structure and sonic sleight-of-hand of the best psychedelic music, their debut feels as fresh as any first generation cosmonauts"." - The Wire (U.K.)
The G
"Hold My Gold" LP (shdwply009)
"... this Philly foursome would not be out of place if they were released on Merge back in 1992. With heavy guitars reminiscent of Carolina's early 90s output, think Superchunk or Polvo but maybe a whole lot drunker. Filtered through more modern fuzzes of punk and pop, the result is a sound that's catchy as hell..."

Gary War
"New Raytheonport" LP/CD (shdwply002 shdwply002CD)
Less Lisa Lisa than Nite Jewel, but without John Maus’ madman disco, Gary War is another Stateside analogue acolyte. Bearing a tape-recorder and nodding a head to late ’60s psychedelia (‘Bounce Four’), ‘New Raytheonport’ builds up lounge-lizard layers of eight-tracked melody, warping them before they finish their drinks. ‘Healthy Living’ comes straight from the Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti songbook – so muted that it makes John Cage’s ‘4’33’ sound like the Eroica Symphony, and with a bassline groove that’s looking to hustle. An ambitious cover of the Alan Parsons Project’s
‘Eye In The Sky’ pays off – somehow predating and supplanting the original, replacing prog with overheard chats. Reset your ears to ‘eavesdrop’, turn up the volume and enjoy.

"NYC Stone Age" LP (shdwply007)
"Ranging from discordant, hazy slacker gems, stunted tribal jazz improv to woozy drunken psych pop."

Sore Eros
"Second Chants" LP/CD (shdwply006)
Sore Eros
Second Chants
Styles: nighttime-bedroom-epic-dream-pop-chants
When the world demands too much from us, our life-power is threatened and reduced in some way. One cigar-smoking thinker claimed that civilization would always make such demands. Another claimed that only certain forms of social organization do so, and that there are possible ways of organizing the world such that its demands and eros can be reconciled. Regardless of which view we think is correct, very few will deny that the demands of our world fosters some sort of soreness. Given this state of things, some people might allow the world’s demands to drive them into madness or misery. Others, however, perhaps the more heroic among us, might rush off to their bedrooms or basements, turn the room into a very low-budget recording studio, plug in some instruments and half-busted microphones, and lay down a record that offers us a glimpse into another world. It is the latter solution that brings us Second Chants.
Several musicians contributed to Second Chants, some of whom are already familiar names. Adam Langelloti plays on all of the tracks, and Gary War, Nick Brannigan, Paul Rosales, Jeff Morkeski, and Vile pop up in various places throughout the album. While all are inseparable from the album’s greatness, Robert Robinson is the songwriting brain behind it all. In the contemporary landscape, one is most tempted to draw a comparison with Deerhunter’s Bradford Cox, another home-recorder who has managed to construct marvelous worlds of sound and mood that are equally dark, alive, and pop-conscious while always challenging the limits of pop itself. Sore Eros is still a mysterious force, as Second Chants appears to be the first proper release, but something tells me that Robinson, like Cox, has the potential to be relentlessly, almost dangerously, prolific. The creative power bursting out of Second Chants is surely a sign that this force is not something that can be confined to even a healthy handful of LPs. This is only the beginning, and clearly one of the most impressive beginnings in quite a while.

"Icarus" 7" (shdwply010)
"Shdwply have the most authentic modern umbilical to the heart of 60s psych and this might well be one of their most plugged in blats yet. Could really do with an album from these guys but this hand-numbered edition of 300 7” complete with classy 3D glasses more than plugs the gap. Can’t stop spinning it. Highly recommended."
-Volcanic Tongue
Thank you Shdwply for the connection. I admire your label hugely. Especially digging Sore Eros. I have sent a demo in as well for submission. Hope you receive it and like what you hear.
