That can go for dedicated fans as well as newcomers. Having traversed the likes of controversy in the industry, surprising collaborations, surreal marketing tactics, and of course, ferocious live appearances, the band have most certainly cemented their status as one of the most captivating and fearless acts of the 2010s. Following 2016's Bottomless Pit, here the band deliver their sixth LP, Year of the Snitch. The former -- alongside other prior releases -- have managed to occasionally meld somewhat accessible traits of more widely acknowledged hip-hop into their sound. Here, however, it seems that Death Grips have opted to go for more surrealism this time. Although the first third of the record is seemingly not as in-your-face as previous work, opener \"Death Grips Is Online\" blasts in straightaway with thudding electro percussion, indecipherable vocal samples, and bright synth leads before segueing into Zach Hill's thundering toms and MC Ride's trademark hollering. Languid beats and deadpan rapping adorn single \"Flies,\" while \"Black Paint\" wallops with organic drum rolls, buzzing keys, and eerily reversed vocals with the chorus consisting of Led Zeppelin-esque guitar riffs and abrupt turntable scratching. Fifth track \"The Horn Section\" is where things get weird -- erratic drumming and dissonant, Casio-style keys carry the instrumental to a close before \"Hahaha\" arrives -- a sign that the rest of what you're about to hear probably won't adhere to any strict time signature for longer than four to six bars at any one time. Odd unpredictable moments crop up elsewhere, but Year of the Snitch does give you a breather with tracks such as \"Streaky,\" which is largely composed of hard-hitting MPC beats, sporadic scratching, and the band's knack for brilliantly executed sampling techniques. Having sampled some of their own work in places -- \"Shitshow\" features samples from their debut 2011 mixtape Exmilitary -- you can never really tell what sounds are discovered or if they're original recordings from Death Grips themselves, albeit heavily processed and manipulated to the point where it's impossible to identify. Which is just one small aspect of the broader genius that is Death Grips. Not one of their releases is the same as another, and with Year of the Snitch, they continue to break boundaries and expectations. The record is another example of true experimentation with their sound along with an uncompromising work ethic and a thirst for originality. ~ Rob Wacey\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/21\/18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Death Grips","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41887060590673,"sku":"WGWY9N-17CD-00","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/Death-Grips-Year-Of-The-Snitch_w2GED.jpg?v=1762465920"},{"product_id":"shellac-shellac-at-action-park-vinyl","title":"Shellac AT ACTION PARK [Vinyl]","description":"Shellac - Shellac AT ACTION PARK [Records \u0026amp; LPs] \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 036172084111 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis was the first full-length release by Bob Weston (formerly of the Boston based Volcano Suns), Todd Trainer (Brick Layer Cake, Rifle Sport), and Steve Albini.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrack List:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.1 My Black Ass - Shellac\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.2 Pull the Cup\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.3 Admiral\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.4 Crow\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.5 Song of the Minerals\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.6 Minute - Shellac\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.7 Idea of North\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.8 Dog and Pony Show\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.9 Boche's Dick\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1.10 Porno Star\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Touch \u0026amp; Go Records\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/23\/2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 036172084111\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Shellac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41887060885585,"sku":"DS05Q0-FJP3-00","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/at-action-park_adYRI.jpg?v=1762465924"},{"product_id":"johnny-cash-johnny-cash-greatest-hits-volume-1-vinyl","title":"Johnny Cash Greatest Hits, Volume 1 [Vinyl]","description":"Johnny Cash - Johnny Cash Greatest Hits, Volume 1 [Records \u0026amp; LPs] \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 194397640519 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 08\/07\/2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Johnny Cash","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41887096275025,"sku":"P02LPL-UEKJ-00","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/Johnny-Cash-Greatest-Hits-Volume-1_wBEMc.jpg?v=1762466131"},{"product_id":"fela-kuti-fela-kuti-shakara-50th-pink-vinyl","title":"Fela Kuti Shakara (50th, Pink) [Vinyl]","description":"Fela Kuti - Fela Kuti Shakara (50th, Pink) [Records \u0026amp; LPs] \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 720841206781 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP Pink Vinyl, Gold Foil OBI Strip, w\/ Bonus Yellow Vinyl 7\"\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eShakara is one of the early 1970’s albums which highlights Fela’s Afrobeat as it transitioned from foetal stage to something approaching full-grown form.

The title track, an anti-militaristic lampoon of the Nigerian armed forces, earned Fela the ire of that army--revenge came when soldiers wrecked Fela's compound, throwing his mother from a window and killing her. A breakneck rhythm, skittering horn lines, and Fela's own taunting vocals add up to one of the musician's most confrontational tracks.

Accompanied as always by the Africa '70 band, Kuti temporarily abandons his tradition of one song extending over an entire LP side -- although he hasn't strayed too far from form -- as the A-side track extends over basically one-and-a-half sides with the shorter funky rave \"You No Go Die.....Unless\" completing the B-side. In addition to that slight variance, the structure of Kuti's delivery, as well as the explicitly sexual intonation in the subject matter of \"Na Poi\" stray from tradition. The title song has somewhat of a history in that it was recorded and issued twice before. The first version from 1972 has not been reissued domestically; however, Yellow Fever (1976) updated the track, which carried the apt moniker \"Na Poi '75.\" The following year the composition was revisited to comprise a lengthy version. In essence, the track is a sexual guide set to music. As such, it features both spoken narration as well as sung lyrics. \"Na Poi\"'s rhythms churn and grind through several notable movements -- including a spirited percussion section and several tight horn arrangements. These hark back to the same type of perpetual funk that became the cornerstone of Parliament and Funkadelic. Initially, the repercussions of such blatant sexuality resulted in the track being banned by the Nigerian Broadcasting Company -- although when the song was reissued in 1975 it snuck back on the air as the new version had an ever so slightly different name. \"You No Go Die.....Unless\" is much in the same spirit as James Brown's hard-driven funk musings. From Kuti's impassioned vocals to the upbeat syncopation of the rhythm, this track contains many obvious parallels between the mid-'70s stateside funk movement and that of concurrently popular African music. The incorporation of the Africa '70 horn section -- which is heavily featured during the bridges -- also provides a much thicker punctuation to Kuti's vocals. Lyrically, the song deals with the urban sprawl that was beginning to occur in Lagos -- in many ways a social observation on par with Marvin Gaye's \"Inner City Blues\" or Stevie Wonder's \"Living for the City.\" ~ Lindsay Planer\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/16\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: LP+ DL Card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Int'L \u0026amp; World Music\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fela Kuti","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41892086939729,"sku":"FJV9ET-RAF6-00","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/Fela-Kuti-NA-POI_Id2tq.jpg?v=1762467790"},{"product_id":"fela-kuti-fela-kuti-afrodisiac-50th-anniversary-edition-green-red-marble-vinyl-vinyl","title":"Fela Kuti Afrodisiac (50th Anniversary Edition) (GREEN \u0026 RED MARBLE VINYL) [Vinyl]","description":"Fela Kuti - Fela Kuti Afrodisiac (50th Anniversary Edition) (GREEN \u0026amp; RED MARBLE VINYL) [Records \u0026amp; LPs] \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 720841206880 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e‚ÄòAfrodisiac‚Äô is the fifth in the series of celebratory Fela 50th Anniversary reissues.

Producers include: Sam Phillips, Jack Clement, Don Law, Frank Jones, Bob Johnston. Compilation producers: Nick Shaffran, Nedra Olds-Neal. Recorded between May 1955 and May 1993. All tracks have been digitally remastered. In the past, if you wanted a Johnny Cash compilation, you were basically confined by licensing issues, as Cash's seminal Sun recordings weren't generally available in the same place as his more eclectic Columbia output. THE ESSENTIAL JOHNNY CASH solves that problem, tying together the various eras of Cash's career on a generous 35-track, two-disc set. Accordingly, this anthology is damn near definitive. From the raw, sparse rockabilly flavor of \"Hey Porter\" and \"Get Rhythm\" to the gospel roots of \"Where You There (When They Crucified My Lord,\" the first disc moves neatly through Cash's early career. Disc two documents Cash's expansion into ever more varied stylistic avenues. Countrified covers of Bob Dylan (\"It Ain't Me Babe\") and Tim Hardin (\"If I Were a Carpenter\") exemplify his fascination with folk-rock. The socially conscious \"Man in Black\" and the patriotic \"Ragged Old Flag\" perfectly display the ostensibly conflicting sides of this complex artist's sensibilities. Album-closer \"The Wanderer\" finds Cash collaborating with U2, filling his role as icon to a whole new generation of artists.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 03\/04\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Johnny Cash","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41897001156689,"sku":"U64WG9-76WW-00","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/Johnny-Cash-THE-ESSENTIAL-JOHNNY-CASH_zzXvn.jpg?v=1762469871"},{"product_id":"johnny-cash-johnny-cash-christmas-therell-be-peace-in-the-vall-vinyl","title":"Johnny Cash CHRISTMAS: THERE'LL BE PEACE IN THE VALL [Vinyl]","description":"Johnny Cash - Johnny Cash CHRISTMAS: THERE'LL BE PEACE IN THE VALL [Records \u0026amp; LPs] \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 889853619610 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracksCredits\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Opening Dialogue 2:42\u003cbr\u003e2 Christmas Time's A-Comin' 2:09\u003cbr\u003e3 The Little Drummer Boy 2:32\u003cbr\u003e4 Ringing the Bells for Jim 2:45\u003cbr\u003e5 Merry Christmas Mary 1:56\u003cbr\u003e6 Matthew 24 (Is Knocking at the Door) 1:56\u003cbr\u003e7 Silent Night (Album Version) 3:26\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 2 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Jingle Bells Johnny Cash Family, the 1:44\u003cbr\u003e2 Blue Christmas 2:22\u003cbr\u003e3 The Christmas Spirit 5:00\u003cbr\u003e4 Here Was a Man 2:40\u003cbr\u003e5 King of Love 2:43\u003cbr\u003e6 The Ballad of the Harp Weaver 4:21\u003cbr\u003e7 (There'll Be) Peace in the Valley (For Me) with the Carter Family 2:48\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/04\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Holiday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Johnny Cash","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41929726066769,"sku":"1GGNPU-N8FV-00","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/Johnny-Cash-CHRISTMAS-THERELL-BE-PEACE-IN-THE-VALL_wPpx3.jpg?v=1762470549"},{"product_id":"death-grips-death-grips-the-money-store-vinyl","title":"Death Grips THE MONEY STORE [Vinyl]","description":"Death Grips - Death Grips THE MONEY STORE [Records \u0026amp; LPs] \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 886919635119 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eA confusing band from the get-go, Death Grips' first release, Exmilitary, was maybe a mixtape, maybe a debut, or maybe both, but there's little doubt that the freely downloadable monster was a headline release in the underground hip-hop renaissance of 2011. From Lil B to Shabazz Palaces, it was a great time to right click, but the 2012 season often involved entering credit card information -- not just to some file-hosting service but to an old-school record label, which in the case of the game-changing The Money Store, is shockingly the Sony-owned Epic. That this restless blast of paranoid avant-rap was released by an imprint that was also committed to signing the winner of the X-Factor recalls a time when you could follow Throbbing Gristle releases all the way up to Warner Bros, but none of this would matter if the music wasn't amazing itself, and it is. Here, the opening \"Get Got\" combines glitch, African rhythms, and a swirling keyboard riff right out of dream pop, all while MC Stefan Burnett offers hood incantations that fall somewhere between Gang Starr's Guru and Can's Malcolm Mooney. Remarkably, rock-solid hooks reveal themselves after repeated listens as the true stomper \"The Fever (Aye Aye)\" hides its Run-DMC love under a Nine Inch Nails-like blast, and while the lean, winding snake called \"I've Seen the Footage\" is all No Wave, severe compression, and conspiracy theories up front, it's really just a tambourine shake away from becoming a possible Outkast track. Burnett would rather follow the music than front it, sensibly acting as one-third of the group when most MCs would choose to be either a focal point or an accessory in these surroundings. The dense bed of edgy grind that he's working with is crafted by producers Andy Morin and Zach Hill (the latter being the man taking the genre-free attitude of Zorn and Laswell into the age of mixtapes), and it isn't without mercy or melody, even though it is, decidedly, an onslaught. All these elements are glued together by a Bad Brains-sized sense of purpose, which makes Death Grips sound alive and hungry in spite of their name, and while it is interesting that this dark ball of hip-hop anti-matter was released by a major, what sticks is the music. The Money Store is an important record that's also compelling, loaded with kinetic blows against the empire and fully stuffed with that attractive maverick spirit. ~ David Jeffries\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 05\/22\/2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Death Grips","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41929730359377,"sku":"1QQNK9-JGQ5-00","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/Death-Grips-THE-MONEY-STORE_5WuxQ.jpg?v=1762470582"},{"product_id":"johnny-cash-johnny-cash-sings-hank-williams-vinyl","title":"Johnny Cash SINGS HANK WILLIAMS [Vinyl]","description":"Johnny Cash - Johnny Cash SINGS HANK WILLIAMS [Records \u0026amp; LPs] \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 090771523914 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePersonnel includes: Johnny Cash (vocals, guitar).\u003cbr\u003eOriginally released on Sun Records (1245).

Lured by the promise of artistic freedom (Sun's Sam Phillips supposedly wanted him to stay on the same raw country\/rockabilly track), Cash switched over to Columbia. Fans feared that his departure from the spartan Sun sound would be accompanied by commercialization and overproduction, but they needn't have worried. On Cash's 1958 Columbia debut, THE FABULOUS JOHNNY CASH, the only real addition to the minimalist sound of Cash's Tennessee Two is a male backing vocal group, and even this can be satisfyingly contextualized by considering Cash's gospel roots. The songs include some of Cash's finest; the timeless torch ballad \"I Still Miss Someone,\" the anti-violence \"Don't Take Your Guns to Town,\" and the poignant farm-community narrative \"Pickin' Time.\" The six previously unreleased bonus tracks included on this long-overdue reissue stack up favorably alongside any of those on the original release, further sweetening the pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 02\/10\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Johnny Cash","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42029200015441,"sku":"A7TSG8-513U-00","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/Johnny-Cash-The-Fabulous-Johnny-Cash-4-Bonus-Tracks_pfJGc.jpg?v=1762490739"},{"product_id":"fela-kuti-jjd-johnny-just-drop-vinyl","title":"J.J.D.

A titanic musical and sociopolitical voice, Fela‚Äôs legacy spans decades and genres, touching on jazz, pop, funk, hip-hop, rock and beyond.\r\n\r\n1973‚Äôs Gentleman is the 7th in the series of celebratory Fela 50th Anniversary reissues. Like its predecessors in the series, this version will be available on exclusive colored vinyl (Igbo Smoke) and the LP will be wrapped in a gold foil obi strip with a brief essay on the album and Fela's global impact on music. Like Fela's other early 70's releases, he used each side of his LPs to create a deep groove that pulls the listener in and follows with metaphoric lyrics that call out and critique the corrupt hangover of colonialism. \r\n\r\nThe title track can be interpreted literally, or as metaphor concerning a wider issue. In this case, Fela's topic is the colonialism-induced inferiority complex which led many in Africa's new governing elites to reject African style, concepts of beauty and modes of behaviour in favour of European imports. Gentleman's other tracks, \"Fefe Naa Efe\" and \"Igbe,\" have briefer lyrics. On \"Fefe Naa Efe,\" an Ashanti motto from Ghana, Fela tells a woman dumped by her boyfriend that she must get over the heartache and move on. On \"Igbe\" (shit), Fela declares that anyone who betrays a friend is shit, and that anybody who lacks self-respect is shit - something you want to expel from your body as soon as possible. He sings the word \"shit\" in several Nigerian languages, so there is no misunderstanding.\n\nA1. Gentleman\r B1. Igbe (Na Shit)\r B2.

Fela also used the album cover to announce the Africanisation of Africa 70‚Äôs name, changing it to Afrika 70.   \r\n\r\nIn the title track, Fela draws attention to the economic chasm separating the haves and  have-nots of Nigerian society, contrasting the get-rich-at-all-costs mindset of the residents of the prosperous Lagos suburb Ikoyi with the more community-minded attitude of the poor inhabitants of the Mushin, Maroko, Ajegunle and Somolu neighbourhoods. Ikoyi residents are blind to the sufferings of less fortunate people, says Fela. \r\n\r\nFela returns to the topic on the second track,  ‚ÄúGba Mi Leti Ki N‚ÄôDolowo (Slap Me Make I Get Money).‚Äù In Lagos in 1975 and 1976, there had been an upsurge in police and military personnel assaults on people in the street; motorists were commonly pulled out of their vehicles and given a whipping for minor traffic offences.
