New Release!
81Gone - Mikal Cronin 'Tide' 7"
The San Francisco scene keeps pushing out serious
psychedelic clack and burble and Cronin is the latest. We loved the fuzzed
out Fading Yellow popsike he delivered on his debut album - and this single
shows him just getting better at it. Good luck getting the knee-buckling
guitar hook and woozy falsetto chorus of 'Tide' out of your head -- and the
flip might even be better - 'You Gotta Have Someone' is a sweet swirly
collision of Ride and the Byrds.
1. Tide
2. You Gotta Have Someone (Listen)
Available Dec. 6th through Goner Records
Available at other fine record stores in January

69Gone - Eddy Current Suppression Ring - So Many Things
They’ve drawn comparisons to Wire, Can, The Fall, Fugazi
and The Stooges. They have a singer who wears black gloves to overcome stage
fright. They won the $30,000 Australian Music Prize for their 2008 album
Primary Colours—then recorded the next one themselves in a few hours in their
practice space and spent the dough on a photo shoot for the album cover. They
do not care about you and your expectations. You could call them “fiercely
independent” but they don’t seem fierce at all. Quietly, and definitely on
their own terms, Eddy Current Suppression Ring has become a force in
underground music. Now, after three albums, it’s time for a compilation
of singles tracks, demos and other stuff they had lying round. Turns out
there was lots to choose from—and even after trimming, they ended up with a
double album. Goner Records is happy to provide So Many Things.

Listen to "T.A.L.O.I.G.A." via Impose
"That's probably the best thing about So Many
Things-- it's a document of four dudes having a good time over the course of
about six years." - Pitchfork, 7.4
"While listening to this compilation, I realized
just how fully formed and irreducible their sound is. ...They also have
clearly mastered their keep-it-simple approach, which means they could
probably churn out another thousand songs that keep pushing the same buttons
and I would probably be equally delirious with the thousandth as the
first." - Dusted

New Release!
75Gone - Lost Sounds 7" EP
Reissue of the first release from the potent team of Jay
Reatard and Alicja Trout, originally on the legendary Italian garage scum
label Solid Sex Lovie Doll in a numbered edition of 300. Aggressive
synth-punk in the tradition of the Screamers with enough raw edges to still
cut deep. Remastered from the original cassette, these recordings' new power
and relative clarity stomp all over the original 7" with frightening
intensity.
1. Plastic Skin (Listen) 2. Don't Bother Me
3. What I'd Say? 4. Lost and Found
Available Dec. 13th through Goner Records
Available at other fine record stores in January

71Gone - Ty Segall - Singles 2007-2010
Jet-packing around the indie / garage cosmos for the last
four years, Ty Segall has done too many singles and EPs and split records and
shared records and albums and cassettes to count. He’s found himself
increasingly in the spotlight, and this year’s Goodbye Bread for Drag City
was met with a big wet kiss from the indie media world. But Segall don’t care
about that. He ain’t in it for the corporate buck. He’s made it because he’s
toured constantly, puts on a great show and genuinely loves what he does. Goner
is proud to present a double-album of tracks culled from Segall’s massive
out-of-print catalog—plus some stuff that never made it out in the first
place. Here ya go: Singles 2007-2010.

Listen to "Dating" via Paste
"Segall has become arguably the most exciting and
probably the most prolific member of San Francisco's evolving garage rock
scene." - Pitchfork, 8.3 (Best New Reissue)
"Singles 2007-2010 captures everything there is to
love about Ty Segall...Pumped-up and conveniently collected, Singles
2007-2010 is bound to round out your Ty Segall catalog, or build a
really strong foundation for its inception." - Impose
"Most records of this nature are little more than
curiosities, but as with everything Ty has done, there is nary a clunker
amongst the album’s 25 cuts. With this kind of consistency, there’s no reason
to ever bet against the man." - The Agit Reader
