Shipping to the lower 48 states is paid!


Here is a short description of each album:

“Gentleman Caller Vs. The Elephant” picks up where Until We Are Missing (Affirmation Records, 2006) left off – the songs are inhabited with ghosts, haunted bodies (both water and human), past loves and a sense of hope that refuses to be stifled.



Everything, Now! “Spatially Severed” - Some call it "space gospel." Others say "artichoke rock." One thing is for sure, in their sixth year, and on their fifth album, Everything, Now! is on top of their game. On "Spatially Severed", E,N! brings their delirious mixture of insane psych-pop melody, hero worship, and obtuse hidden meanings into their most accessible form. These 16 parables are disguised as commercialized space-age pop gems for the ADD generation.

Indianapolis-based Pravada has been creating their unique stream of atmospheric pop for four years now, and after many delays we are lucky enough to see their near perfect debut album "Manus Plere" become a physical reality.



The Mysteries of Life home recordings in 2007. Limited to only 500 copies. Get them while you can.





Action Strasse “American Gas Jive”: Recorded and mixed in 5 days, by the late, great LonPaul Ellrich, this album is a tribute to the golden age of the rock album. Songs about girls, petrol, and how religion and war are destroying humanity, all fit annoyingly well together in these troubling times.



The Defunct Indiana Compilation contains seventeen indie, experimental, and hardcore artists from Indiana's past. This is some of the best music from all Indiana based, now-defunct bands.
