THE INFANT CYCLE- A Mysterious Disc 3″ CDR (The Ceiling, Canada) $7 CAD / $6.30 USD
A mysterious disc?

VLOR- Six-Winged CD (Silber Records, U.S.A.) $16 CAD / $14.40 USD
New full-length from the Silber collective, featuring appearances from members of Remora, Aarktika, 6PM, Plumerai, The Infant Cycle, mwvm and many others. A diverse but coherent place, standing in the intersection where ambient guitar noise, post-rock, and garage aggressiveness meet, bathed in a sweet lo-fi light.

Ordering info can be found here.

“…a purely artistic endeavor in which the musicians communicate with one another. This communication translates into the substance of the music. Confusing, soothing, abstract… an interesting trip into the minds of those involved in the real undercurrents of modern audio art.”

~ Babysue Vlor started as a short-lived moody pop band in 1992 & was revived as an acoustic shoegazing duo in 1997 releasing the EPs Lavished & Luxate before falling apart again in 1998. In 2006 the posthumous Sacred Places in the City was released & Vlor was relaunched as a group of musicians collaborating through the mail to record A Fire is Meant for Burning. The new album, Six-Winged, is Vlor’s second album as a collection of Silber all-stars working together. Six-Winged started with Brian John Mitchell (Remora/Small Life Form) recording guitars & bass lines & sending them out to friends to augment & complete. Returning with Mitchell (bass, guitar, vocals) to Vlor are Jon DeRosa of Aarktica (guitar), Jessica Bailiff (guitar, percussion, keyboard), & Paolo Messere of 6PM (guitar, bass, percussion, keyboard) to be joined by new members Annelies Monseré (guitar, cello, vocals, melodica, piano), Martin Newman of Plumerai & Goddakk (guitar), Mae Starr of Rollerball & Moodring (vocals), Jim DeJong of Infant Cycle (strings), Michael Walton of mwvm (guitar), Brian McKenzie of Electric Bird Noise & Something About Vampires And Sluts (guitar, bass, percussion), Michael Wood of Something About Vampires And Sluts & The Wet Teens (vocals), & Magen McAvenney (vocals). Yeah, we know, it’s a ton of folks. Through sixteen tracks Vlor goes through several musical styles, from slowcore (“i have left home,” “she goes out with boys”) to garage rock (“watch me bleed”) to drone rock (“damage the land & the sea”) to moody pop (“not the one for me”) to aggressive ambient (“tolerate the wicked,” “maybe you should chew on my fist”) to cinematic soundscapes (“guided,” “statue of jealousy”). Despite being recorded in six states & five countries, delving into a half dozen genres, & having twelve creative voices; Six-Winged maintains its focus as a cohesive album always maintaining the dichotomy of sound that is so distinctively Vlor – brooding, searching, angst-ridden, & celebratory.

The Ceiling website has been updated today with copies of this new disc.

THE INFANT CYCLE- The Sand Rays CD (Diophantine Discs, U.S.A.) $16 CAD / $14.40 USD
First new full length by The Infant Cycle in a couple of years finds the culmination of the pinball reverberations and multi-layered drones of earlier releases refracted further through broken cords, near-empty batteries, broken equipment. An uneasy coexistence of peaceful thoughts and harsher actions from a body seemingly possessing many independent limbs… In Diophantine’s trademark high quality card wallet sleeve.

Diophantine Discs is pleased to announce the release of a new CD...
The Infant Cycle - The Sand Rays.

We're happy to introduce the new full-length record from The Infant
Cycle. The Sand Rays is to be played from the outside to the center,
from whichever edge you choose. The Sand Rays is pinball rhythm
reverberations from sliced vinyl record playout grooves, gravelly
surface vibrations. The Sand Rays is exploiting broken cords, near-empty
batteries, half-broken equipment. We loved it and think you will too.
Just be prepared to be a bit more confused when it is all over, but
don't worry: you'll be too busy wiping that silly grin off your face
because you had such a fun time.

The Infant Cycle, active since 1992, is the brainchild of Jim DeJong. He
has released material on such labels as Drone, EE Tapes, Hands, Moloko+,
Afe, Zhelezobeton, Blade, Abgurd, and his own The Ceiling. Additionally
he is a former member of Mind Skelp-cher and (as The Infant Cycle) has
collaborated with numerous artists including Aidan Baker, Orphx, and
Dronaement.

Housed in a custom printed color wallet. Edition of 500 copies.

Price: $11.00 + shipping ($1.00 North America / $3.00 Elsewhere)
