hollAnd - Drums   CD EP (pulCec: pulC001: 708527700129)  $7.99

EXCLUSIVE.  7 songs. Nods/allusions to other artists are simply not found on Drums. These seven songs are compelling, innovative, and hooky. hollAnd's songwriting is transparent -- he finally wants us to see the formula: A song with a hook, broken into a million pieces. 'drums' embraces the rough edges usually erased in the recording process, here, accidents are not always deleted. Instead hollAnd culls all of the broken pieces into a beautiful, timeless archive. Debut release for the new pulCec label. Pat Graham photographs on cover. Juliet Swango (Rondelles) back-up vocals. Electronic hollAnd pop in the vein of Your Orgasm.

BARCELONA - Transhuman Revolution   CD (pulCec: PUL005 : 708527700525)  $12.00

EXCLUSIVE.  Pop, punk, disco and new wave influences reign here, everything from Blondie, Moroder, Agent Orange, New Order, and Unrest to Funboy Three. Imagine Michael Jackson's "Off the Wall" if it had been recorded by Sparks. Frequently labelled "programmer pop" and "geek rock", Barcelona have succeeded in creating a sound unique to themselves. Jennifer's confident vocals support Jason's endearing vocal vunerability. Equal parts indie rock and retro-synthesized pop, Transhuman Revolution is referential and incomparable; erratic and infinitely catchy. Produced and collaborated on with Trevor/hollAnd. The album was sequenced by FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH author, Cameron Crowe. Easily the best record from Barcelona yet. It's like 10 new singles. Reviews: Pitchfork | Aversion | Splendid
