On August 28th, Dischord will release a new 2-song 7” by Soul Side entitled This Ship. In 2015, the group—singer Bobby Sullivan, guitarist Scott McCloud, drummer Alexis Fleisig, and bassist Johnny Temple—reunited for the first time in 25 years and have continued to perform together as time and opportunity allow. The 7” was recorded during a brief run of European shows in autumn of 2019 at Jamor Studio in Prague with Ondrej Jezek. You can listen to the A-side, “This Ship,” here and pre-order the record via our site and Bandcamp. A third song will be included on the download and via digital services.
A documentary film from Mark Robinson (Unrest, Teen-Beat), about his favorite rock star, Butch Willis. Amateur On Plastic chronicles Butch's life and career from the beginning all the way through to present day. The film combines archival footage, interviews, and performances. Amateur On Plastic also parallels the 1990's era of seminal indie record label Teen-Beat. Behind-the-scenes glimpses of the label's concerts and private parties provide much of the background and feature members of the bands Unrest, Versus, Tuscadero and more.

Blacks' Myths - Blacks' Myths II
The second full-length by Washington, D.C.-based duo, Blacks' Myths, who are bassist Luke Stewart (Low Ways Quartet, Irreversible Entanglements) and Warren G. Crudup. 13 tracks of blistering noise and rhythmic improvisation augmented via monologues from poet, professor, and Sun Ra-scholar Thomas Stanley. Recorded during a single marathon session in the summer of 2019 and out via Atlantic Rhythms. Recommended!
Dead Meadow - Feathers
A reissue of D.C.-bred heavy rock/psych band Dead Meadow's fourth album (fifth, if you count that one live record), Feathers. Originally released on Matador in 2005, Feathers found the band -- now a quartet with the addition of guitarist Cory Shane -- supplementing its churning riffs with heady atmospherics and effects, evoking Black Sabbath and also, somehow, Slowdive. Arriving via the band's own Tekeli-Li imprint, this double LP is an exact replica of the original pressing and comes with a supplementary CD of demos, rarities, and alternate mixes. Recommended.
