Jónsi – Obsidian (Double Colour LP – Black/Gold Galaxy)

Obsidian, Jónsi’s third studio album,  is now available on vinyl for the first time.

The eruption of the Fagradalsfjall volcano in Iceland served as the inspiration for Obsidian. Recorded and produced in tandem with Jónsi’s art installation of the same name at the Tanya Bonakdar Gallery in NY, the parallel formats inform one another and interweave through their embodiment of volcanic energies. 

This is a limited edition of 2000 units in black/gold galaxy colour vinyl. Purchase from Bandcamp fulfilled by Krunk.

Co-produced and mixed by Paul Corley (Yves Tumor, Oneohtrix Point Never, Ben Frost, Koreless) and Nathan Salon.

limited edition transparent vinyl release available only from sigurros.com

Following its surprise digital release, Sigur Rós’ first new studio album in ten years, ÁTTA, is their most intimate and emotionally direct record to date.

Few bands cut through the noise and distractions of the world to bring you a pure elemental truth or feeling like Sigur Rós. As you hear on ÁTTA, there’s a new compulsion and drive to the band that comes with the new formation of the line up. Multi-instrumentalist Kjartan Sveinsson is back in the fold – having left the band in 2012 – to join frontman Jónsi and bassist Georg Holm.

Recorded across multiple continents – in the band’s Sundlaugin studio in Iceland, the legendary Abbey Road in the UK and a number of studios in the US – ÁTTA leans heavily towards the orchestral, and touches on everything that has made Sigur Rós one of the most ambitious and acclaimed bands of recent times, with close to ten million albums sold, whilst signposting an exciting and expansive possibility for their future. ÁTTA prominently features the London Contemporary Orchestra conducted by Robert Ames, alongside brass performed by longtime Icelandic collaborators Brassgat í bala. It is mixed and co-produced by another frequent collaborator Paul Corley, alongside the band. (copy from band website)

Unwound – Unwound Reissue color and black vinyl

Back in print for the first time this century, first time for color and tip-on jacket, the definitive edition remastered from the original tapes.

Meeting at the halfway point between Bleach and Damaged, Unwound’s 1995 self-titled album arrived years after the original trio of Vern Rumsey, Justin Trosper, and Brandt Sandeno made their Avast Studios debut. Compiling their EPs for Kill Rock Stars and Gravity Records with five more session outtakes, Unwound was released on Rumsey’s Punk In My Vitamins as the band began flirting with the mainstream. Witness a band’s prehistory as it plays out in a feral maelstrom of screaming, distortion, feedback, and abrasive promise.

Fontianes D.C. Skinty Fia Red Vinyl LP Sleeve and record

Fontaines D.C. release their latest album, Skinty Fia, on red vinyl

Irish post-punk Fontaines D.C. return with their third record in as many years: Skinty Fia. Released on 22 April 2022 via Partisan Records, the title roughly translates from the Irish language into English as “the damnation of the deer”. Produced Dan Carey, recorded at Angelic Studios, mastered at Abbey Road Studios. Pressed by Optimal Media GmbH. Available direct from Fontaines D.C. website.

Part bittersweet romance, part darkly political triumph – the songs ultimately form a long-distance love letter, one that laments an increasingly privatized culture in danger of going the way of the extinct Irish giant deer.”

Pressed on limited edition red colored vinyl, housed in a single sleeve jacket and printed inner sleeve. Also available in black vinyl single LP in a sleeve jacket and printed inner sleeve and also as a double-LP on 45rpm 180gm black vinyl, in a gatefold jacket with printed inner sleeves.
