The finest in hermetic sound and vision from around the world…forever buzzing the tower.
Hear Multicult explain(and prove with a blistering live set!) how Afrofunk, Cop Shoot Cop, The Cramps, Chrome, and Bruce Springsteen inform the mangled, anthemic anti-funk/noise-punk that is their weapon of choice. Thanks to Chris M. for having the gang on his Imaginary Radio program on our absolute favorite station in the nation(universe, even!), WFMU.

Don’t miss this killing machine tonight at Cake Shop if you’re in the New York area!
The long-awaited split single shared by Sweden’s Ectoplasm Girls, the duo of sisters Nadine and Tanya Byrne, and Los Angeles-based Net Shaker, the paring of Ernest Gibson & Erik Frydenborg.
Packaged in full-color, fold-over jackets with artwork by the bands, this 7″ serves as an essential introduction to the kraut/lurk anti-rock of NS and the gauzy, outsider pop ritualism of EG.
Grab one from our store or your favorite local shop and hear for yourself what has already garnered praise from the likes of The Wire and aQuarius Records..
One of our most anticipated releases, the long-awaited split single from our LA cohorts in NET SHAKER and Swedish sisters Nadine and Tanya Byrne, better knows as ECTOPLASM GIRLS. Both groups push the envelope of SGG’s tried-n-true Bunkerbeat aesthetic to further realms.
Ordering info soon, until then enjoy a clip of the girls witching up an outdoor stage in their homeland..

1st treat yourself to this clip that will appeal to fans of Hammerhead and sound financial advice:
Our very own MjolniirDXP will be playing this year’s installment of the long-running and admirable Total Fest with the likes of Harkonen, Sedan, Iron Lung, Torche, Dan Deacon, Gay Witch Abortion, Broken Water, Lozen, Roomrunner, + many more. Come down to the lake with us!
Total Fest and Wantage rule. http://wantagetotalfest.blogspot.com/
We also dig the Denver focus on this write-up, despite DXP being a Rome/NYC-based band these days..
“Denver, with its plains-state grid and and sun-baked yellow-greyness, is the weirdly perfect place for a futuristic, kosmische gloom group like MJOLNIIRDXP. Yeah, all caps. Sort of fucked up Kluster-like, Italian horror dirtier John Carpenter space noise-scape, with that kind of internet non-presence that makes you appreciate a group that has no need for any of this internet nonsense.
I know about MjolniirDXP because one of its members is Mike Reisinger from the excellent thuggy hardcore group Leather Sky and Sleeping Giant Glossolalia label that’s responsible for the new Vaz record, Oldest’s LP and a few more obscuro gems. Here’s some more info about them from WFMU, the best radio station in New Jersey.
Yeah, and a Mjolniir is Thor’s hammer, made of antimatter, I think.”
This show was surely unsafe for audience and performer alike..
And here is some evidence that the “Neglected Prayer Rug Abomination” release did in fact exist:
Jason Sigal wants the airwaves…….
…….and he’s taking them by force today as both of his bands are featured as live guests on WFMU’s Cherry Blossom Clinic with Terre T. So tune your radio to 91.1 fm in the greater New York City area, including East/Central NJ. Tune to 90.1 fm in the Hudson Valley, lower Catskills, and North/Western NJ, or stream it live on internet right here: http://wfmu.org/tt/
Every day is Halloween with Ralph Gean and Leather Sky are honored to share the stage with the living legend tonight at one of his old haunts, the world famous Lion’s Lair. RSVP here:

The toxins borne of that so-called “pigfuck renaissance” we’ve been hearing about in places like the Village Voice must have been seeping down from New York City into the fertile Baltimore soil for some time now, as the second album from Multicult only amplifies all the acid-damaged qualities that have made the band a unanimous favorite in these harsh realms. Everything has been turned up a notch to make “Spaces Tangled” a more efficient killing machine. The songs are heavier and more concise, the recording clearer without losing even a hint of urgency, and the unlikely mutant-funk angle has been dialed in to give this record the finish of a Chrome-plated post-punk relic that somehow, rather than looking to the past, warns of a rhythmically devastating, noise-drenched future.
“Catchier than Ohio bed bugs and heavier than a death in the family. Nunna that “tryin’ ta be weird for attention” crap, this is the real deal. Feel weird hits of the Summer for sure.” – Rodney McCloud
Time Out NY says “Addictively ominous postpunk trio Vaz—a spin-off of cult-fave Midwestern noise-rockers Hammerhead—tops a bill that also includes noise-drenched yet surprisingly hooky Baltimore art-punks Roomrunner.”
We say come cave yr head in as we celebrate the release of SGG-025, Multicult’s “Spaces Tangled” opus with SGG big-bossmen VAZ and other friends…
