Not the earliest album by Cabaret Voltaire, but a mid 80s set that actually seems to have the group going back to a bit more of an edge – maybe inspired by some of the farther reaches of the indie cold wave underground who were inspired by their initial experiments! There's a fair bit of ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition white vinyl pressing with download!)
Lots of layers of sound here – that raw electronic style of early Cabaret Voltaire, mixed with an increasing interest both in found sound samples, including some cool spoken bits – and in elements from a growing global soundscape as well! There's some unusual undercurrents to the music ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Can singles? Seems like a very strange thing, given that the group that kicked off the prog generation were noted for their extended album jams – but the format actually works surprisingly well, and actually lets you focus in even more on their genius! These tracks deliver a short, compact ... (Rock) read moreCD
Heady, hypnotic, ominous, and hard-grooving early Can – a lost set that was recorded in the late 60s, but not actually released until the early 80s – and some of the earliest, brawniest Can jams from the Malcolm Mooney years! The record may not have the name-checking power as the other ... (Rock) read moreCD
One of the most essential Can albums, and perhaps their best – have drums ever sounded better on a record? Ege Bamyasi features some of Jaki Liebezeit's greatest beats, from the shorter songs like the amazing "Vitamin C", "I'm So Green", and "Spoon", to the ... (Rock) read moreCD
A mindblowing classic from Can – a set that has the group just getting better with each new record – to a point where it's the early 70s, and they're already in territory that's completely their own! The set features long tracks that spin out beautifully – driven that that ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
A mid 70s killer from Can – sometimes overlooked next to the early classics, but a record that's filled with equally great charms! Things are still pretty noisy here, and plenty proggy too – thanks to driving drums from Jaki Liebezeit and hypnotic basslines from Holger Czukay and there' ... (Rock) read moreCD
Stunning live material from Can – a never-issued performance from 1975, and very much in the same spirit as their excellent release of concert material from a Stuttgart show of the same year – in that the tracks are long, free-flowing, and even more jamming than their work on record! ...

A searing slice of live energy from the mighty Can – an extended concert performance that shows just how different some of the group's live material was compared to their studio recordings – especially at this time when they were tightening things up slightly for their records!

A great addition to the 70s catalog of the legendary Can – a set of live recordings made in Stuttgart in 1975, all of which have the group working in this wonderfully long-jamming style! Tracks are long, and maybe even more proggy than the group's studio work of the time – an all-instru ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
The groundbreaking debut of Can – a record that came out on 1969, and is every bit a part of its time – but also light-years ahead of so many of its contemporaries, with a quality that's kept the music intensely resonant over the decades! The songs are long, jamming, and full of plenty ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition on Monster Sky vinyl and with download!)
A mid 70s set from Can that's still very much in the best spirit of their earliest work – mostly longish tracks and all quite hypnotic – wonderful stuff from the team of Irmin Schmidt, Jacki Liebezeit, Holger Czukay, and Michael Karoli. Sure, Damo's not on vocals any more, but the ... (Rock) read moreCD
The second album from Can – and one that the group maybe likes to think of as more of a bridge between Monster Movie and Tago Mago – tracks done for a variety of film projects, but which also still really show the quick evolution of the group at the time!

The raw, mesmerizing debut of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds!
