I fucking love this band, Quilt. I picked their album as one of my faves from 2011. And it’s still one of my faves in 2012! If you don’t have this album, grab it now over at Mexican Summer. And get a little taste of ‘em whilst you’re on you’re way there by flaring up this new video for “Young Gold.” Dig…

Feelin’ down? Go ahead and crank up this amazing new tune ‘Bliss’ from Blues Pills, a band born from the former rhythm section of Radio Moscow, Cory Berry and Zach Anderson. It just rips. Feelin’ better already! Look for more tunes from them in 2012.

In For The Kill Records is proud to announce its first release, a 7” by Brooklyn/NY acid-prog/psych rock trio LA OTRACINA. Having issued almost 20 releases in 8 years, including 3 critically acclaimed albums for the Holy Mountain label, this is their first 7” release!

“Skyblazer” is a trip through sound portals of complex densities; where the speed rush of Motorhead/ZZ Top fueled proto-metal/hard-rock meets the lysergic meltdown space boogie of Hawkwind and the progressive intricacies of King Crimson. This is the New Wave Of Psychedelic Heavy Music, a contemporary vision exploding with classic influences, forging a future of boundless (con)fusions between The Psychedelic Heavy and The Cosmic Weird!

Available on green vinyl in a limited edition of 300 copies. Highly recommended for fans of DANAVA, CIRCLE, WITCH, NAAM, SAVIOURS and EARTHLESS.

Cost Including Shipping By Location:
US $7.00 / Canada/Mexico $8.00 / Europe/Australia/South America $10.00 / Japan/Asia $11.00 /

Uh, dudes…this Thursday’s show is gonna be major, in more ways than one. Paul Major from Endless Boogie will be co-DJ’ing with me AND I’ll be talking to the one and only Alice Cooper about his nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, working with the original Alice Cooper group again (as well as producer Bob Ezrin) and being dosed by Blue Cheer!

As a long-time Alice-fan since 7th grade, I’ve always been very proud to work on his syndicated radio show, Nights With Alice Cooper. So I’m super-psyched to have him on Beyond Beyond is Beyond on East Village Radio, on Thursday, September 30th!

The original Alice Cooper group is in good company with the rest of the nominees to the Rock Hall this year. It should be noted that Alice has been sampled by the Beastie Boys, written with Bon Jovi, Donovan duets with Alice on ‘Billion Dollar Babies’, and one of Alice’s favorite songwriters ever is Laura Nyro! Check out the list of nominees:

2011 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees:

Alice Cooper, Beastie Boys, Bon Jovi, Chic, Neil Diamond, Donovan, Dr. John, J. Geils Band, LL Cool J, Darlene Love, Laura Nyro, Donna Summer, Joe Tex, Tom Waits, Chuck Willis

.

AND, like I done said before, Endless Boogie singer/guitarist, Paul Major (aka Top Dollar) will be spinnin’ jams alongside me all show long! From what I hear, Paul’s got some killer records and Endless Boogie’s new Full House Head album is one of my current favorite albums!

So be sure to hear it all on Beyond Beyond is Beyond on East Village Radio on Thursday, noon eastern! I promise sweetniss!

UPDATE: CLICK HERE TO HEAR THE ALICE COOPER INTERVIEW!

New album coming soon on Mexican Summer

This Thursday on the ol’ East Village Radio show that I like to call Beyond Beyond is Beyond, I will be talking to the gold-throated ‘god of hellfire’ himself, the amazing Arthur Brown.  As seen here, freaking the fuck out…

Esoteric Recordings is reissuing much of Arthur’s works, including the groundbreaking, earth-shaking Crazy World of Arthur Brown album, as well as Arthur Brown’s Kingdom Come albums.

I will also be paying tribute to MAN‘s fantastic guitarist/vocalist/songwriter, Micky Jones, who just passed away on March 10th, losing the battle to a brain tumor that he had been fighting for years.  Micky will live on for many through the fine, fine music that he leaves behind.  R.I.P. Micky…and thank you for the jams.

Coincidentally, Esoteric Recordings also did the superb remastering job with the MAN catalog as well, so this Thursday will be Esoteric Fest on Beyond Beyond is Beyond.  So listen live at noon eastern, Thursday, March 18th to East Village Radio and let’s celebrate jams together!  Sound good?

UPDATE: HERE’S THE ARCHIVE OF THIS SHOW! (…and the Playlist)
