SONIC YOUTH'S "THE DESTROYED ROOM: B-SIDES AND RARITIES" CD TO BE RELEASED
ON GEFFEN RECORDS DECEMBER 12TH..VINYL COUNTER-PART ST DATE IS EARLY 2007..
Santa Monica, California, October 30, 2006 - New York's most influential
avant-garde rock band Sonic Youth follows up their critically acclaimed
release of Rather Ripped earlier this year with a special set that is
sure to complete the collection of all Sonic Youth fans. The Destroyed
Room: B-sides And Rarities, a band-chosen collection of near-hidden
Sonic Youth gems, the CD will be released on Geffen Records December 12th.
The album brings together songs from throughout the band's career with
Geffen Records, focusing on tracks previously available only on vinyl,
limited-release compilations, or as b-sides to international singles.
The tracks were hand picked by the band and also include material that
has never before been released. For those that collect vinyl, a double
vinyl LP edition will be released in early 2007 on the band's own
Goofin' Records label.
The complete track listing for The Destroyed Room: B-sides And Rarities
is:
Fire Engine Dream - (2003) outtake from "Sonic Nurse;" previously
unreleased
Fauxhemians - (2001) from The Noho Furniture Sessions; originally

Blink - (1999) from the "Pola X" soundtrack
Campfire - (2000) from the "At Home With The Groovebox" compilation

Sonic Youth spent this past summer on the road kicking off their tour at
the now closed legendary club CBGBs in New York City and continuing on a
headlining tour of the United States. They made a stop at the Bonnaroo
Arts & Music festival in Tennessee before opening for Pearl Jam on some
of their west coast dates. A stint at Lollapalooza followed and then it
was more club dates followed by two sold out performances at McClaren
Pool in Brooklyn with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Sonic Youth will head to
Europe for a string of dates later this year starting with The Nightmare
Before Christmas version of the All Tomorrow's Parties festival which
will be curated by Thurston. The Festival runs December 8-10 and takes
place at a new location in Somerset, England. For international tour
dates visit www.sonicyouth.com
Earlier this year saw the reissue of three of the most daring,
innovative and compelling soundvisions in modern music--Sonic Youth's
landmark 1982 debut album, its legendary twisted pop opus under the
pseudonym Ciccone Youth and band member Thurston Moore's sole solo
album.All remastered, Sonic Youth,. The Whitey Album and Moore's Psychic
Hearts were reissued by Geffen/UMe March 14, 2006.

Jason Forrest Band in NYC
from Jason:
I'm coming to NYC for some CMj action next week. 2 shows:
Halloween- Oct 31st- The Jason Forrest live band!
The Knitting Factory, we play exactly at 12:30am.
Yes, Jason Forrest has a live band, we're a power-rocking hard partying trio of guitar, laptop and keytar!! We sound like a mix of Run DMC, Deep Purple and Deerhoof -maybe. We can promise you a fun time, lots of insane rocking, and a little bit of neo-rave too! AH! People in costumes get party favors... Earlier in the evening, The Cardigans play, so it might be a little full- but who knows. I'd say maybe come a little early. There's 8 bands all night, so you're guaranteed to get your money's worth.
-then-
November 2nd
Load records and Cock Rock Disco present: 'Cock Rock N' Load"
Split CMJ showcase
The Pussycat Lounge, starts at 9pm, goes to when they kick-us out.
CRD acts: Drumcorps, Duran Duran Duran, Dev/Null, Droon, Food For Animals, The Assdroids, About
Load acts: Wizardzz, White Mice, Pleasure Horse, Fat worm Of Error
Hosted by Dj's Donna Summer and Ben Dover
We guarantee you it will be insane!!!
Yes, this show will be a glorious mess of too band bands in too little space, definitely some nudity (the place is a topless bar) and odds are the most fun party that will happen at CMJ. I'd expect some peopel in costumes doing stupid stuff, and plenty of fast fun loud music!
BEST!
Jason Forrest

Andre Afram Asmar to play Trilogy Q06
Andre Afram Asmar will be performing for all three days of the Trilogy Qualifier '06 at the National Orange Show in San Bernadino, CA. Also on this huge bill are Z-Trip, Mike Jones, Barrington Levy, E-40, Jim Carroll, the Shapeshifters, and many more.
10/20 - Main Stage, 4pm
10/21 - In the Dj Dome
10/22 - Main Stage, 5pm
Andre's main stage set will feature a live backing band performing songs from racetothebottom. In the Dj Dome, Andre will be performing a live dub session with an added percussion section.
Andre Afram Asmar Bio:
Andre Afram Asmar takes an approach far different then that of most electronic music producers. With equal part influences from hip-hop, dub, and world music, Asmar most often builds around live instrumentation, utilizing samples and effects as accents to the acoustics, ethnic percussion, and live vocals found in his work. Whether working with underground emcee Circus (the Shapeshifters), dub pioneer Scientist, or any of a host of instrumentalists, percussionists, and vocalists that can be found nightly at his Los Angeles recording compound, Asmar finds a way to twist the end result in to a product that is uniquely his own.

volcano! updates
volcano! a cappella à Paris
Well sort of. volcano! proved their true worth as a rock band with two impromptu performances in Paris during their European tour this summer. Captured on video and posted on the excellent Blogotheque website, the label only just unearthed this extraordinary rendition of 'La Lluvia' (from the album Beautiful Seizure), and they felt we needed to share it with you.
The other video is an ad-libbed number, thought to be a musical match report on the France v Togo World Cup game. You can find the clips HERE...

Colleen updates
Colleen’s latest venture, Colleen Et Les Boîtes À Musique, hit the shops next October 10th.
“It seemed like a dream opportunity to explore further the miniature continent of sound that music boxes in all their variety generate” says Colleen’s Cécile Schott in response to the carte blanche handed to her by national radio station France Culture’s Atelier De Création Radiophonique to record music for a special broadcast.
The commission would have remained just that, but Schott was so pleased with the results she decided to give the nod for the recordings to be released on this 38-minute EP, under a temporarily revised artist name.
No stranger to the use of music boxes in her recordings and live performance, the consciously limited palette yields extraordinary dividends; this is arguably the most intimate and wonderfully melodic release of her career to date. Composed entirely using music boxes (but for one track), the pieces use everything from miniature boxes hidden in 1940s birthday cards to large Victorian boxes. Not content with the orthodox sounds produced by the boxes, Schott hijacked them, playing them with her fingers or with mallets on the comb. She re-sampled and affected pitch and delay in a quest to produce unique sounds and melodies.
Utilising the natural loop in each box, the different boxes move in and out of time, evoking memories of childhood. This playful nature ebbs and flows throughout the EP like a stream unsure of its chosen path. Sounds reminiscent of harps (‘What Is A Componium? Part 2’), xylophones and Fender Rhodes (‘Your Heart Is So Loud’), and electronics (‘Calypso In A Box’) appear and then disappear on the landscape, fooling the listener into believing that the noises emanate from more than one type of instrument.
This 14-track EP will provide refreshing new material for those anticipating Colleen’s third long player, scheduled for release in early 2007. The material is all new with the exception of the final track, ‘I’ll Read You A Story’, which can also be found on 2005’s The Golden Morning Breaks.
“Really, really beautiful”
Stuart Maconie, Freak Zone, 6 Music
“Surprisingly broad-ranging and uniformly engrossing”
Independent Music Magazine
“A remarkable project”
The Guardian
As you may already know if you subscribe to our MySpace blog, Colleen has finally got her own official MySpace page! There was a fan page on Myspace (which made no mention of the fact that it was unofficial, and that no messages would reach Cecile), so if you were signed up to that you may wish to visit the new page and get yourself added. The new page will feature regular news and updates.
Colleen is touring Japan in October/November this year. Japanese label Windbell will release a special 2CD package to coincide with the tour, including Colleen's 2005 album The Golden Morning Breaks as well as the new Colleen Et Les Boites a Musique EP. The Japanese 2CD will not include any new music, but will feature new packaging.

Holy Mountain upcoming releases
Holy Mountain intends to end the year strong by crushing up some salt licorice and pouring it into a bottle of vodka to dissolve for several days. What the hell is this supposed to mean? It means that Tivol's Early Teeth CD should see the light of day very soon.
Another camper on the moonlight mile is the upcoming Zodiacs Gone CD. Zodiacs is full-on biker-rock rumble from people who may not be connected to Davenport, Wooden Wandand the Vanishing Voice and Sunburned Hand of the Man .
After that it's called 2007 and that means new releases from Shining Path, Sufi Mind Game, Blues Control, Mammatus and Wooden Ships.

My Morning Jacket 4LP extremely limited box-set
My Morning Jacket's 2005 US tour was a blur of sold-out shows and riveting performances and Badman has the goods to prove it. The label has just completed work on Okonokos, a 4xLP box-set, due mid-November, documenting one of the band's finest performances of the tour. This is an extremely limited deluxe package featuring high-quality virgin vinyl, a closed-lid box and even a few bonus tracks not available elsewhere.

Ba da bing! Records announcement
In January Ba-Da-Bing! releases the debut album by Essie Jain, a New York ex-pat from London and trained opera singer whose sparse, morose songs are reminiscent of Desertshore-era Nico.
In the Spring, the label introduces the first album by Benjamin Wetherill, a Leeds, UK-based singer-songwriter whose folk stylings hark back to John Jacob Niles and Jackson C. Frank.
