When considering the rock 'n' roll lifestyle, there are few bands that embraced it and lived it more fully than Royal Trux. The origins of the band track back to the late 1980s in Washington, D.C., where the duo of Neil Michael Hagerty and Jennifer Herrema established their musical identity and released their self-titled debut in 1988. Royal Trux was rock 'n' roll in its purest form, and it appeared to settle the vision of the duo, but soon enough Hagerty and Herrema started experimenting with additional elements. The band's double record Twin Infinities, released in 1990 saw the realization of their true vision, incorporating noise rock qualities and featuring an experimental approach that was verging on the avant-garde.
This year’s edition of Record Store Day, set for Saturday, April 13th, brings a new mono remaster of Pink Floyd’s sophomore album, A Saucerful of Secrets.
Previously unreleased, legendary pre-Residents album, an accompaniment to RSD 2018's successful W***** B*** Album. A must for REsidents fans and collectors, who have long called for its official release. Remastered from the original tapes. Produced in partnership with The Residents and The Cryptic Corporation. Recorded in 1971 in the hope of securing the group a recording contract, and sent to Warner Bros Records in early 1972, BS has become a cornerstone of The Residents’ mythology. Rejected by Warner Bros Records, the album was disowned by the group and remained long-forgotten until its recent rediscovery as part of their ongoing archival excavations. Two must-hear sides of deep fried experimentia, post-lysergic explorations, primitive home recordings and Residential nonsense.
