Paisley Babylon The Alpha Wave Variations On Sale Now

For Sale, ,

paisley babylon alpha wave variationsPaisley Babylon’s The Alpha Wave Variations is back in print for a limited time. Some say this disc is unclassifiable, but favorable comparisons have been made to John Carpenter, Eno, and other masters of the analog synth in unusual applications.

Part beat-driven electronic psychedelia and part horror film soundtrack, The Alpha Wave Variations straddles a thin line between sonic sculpture and dark new wave.

One reviewer writes, “If Funki Porcini is like ‘shrooming, then Paisley Babylon is like spending several hours in a flotation tank after ingesting a couple of hash brownies. Definitely one of those in the dark listening experiences.”

The sadly defunct Last Sigh Magazine said of The Alpha Wave Variations, “This CD has a foreboding electronic soundscape… strange murders, cannibalistic activities, and ‘graveyard robberies’…setting the stage for eerie events in one’s dream state with weird echos… More strange sounds produced here that I haven’t heard elsewhere…”

Available on CD for a limited time while supplies last, The Alpha Wave Variations has been out of print for many years until now. It’s not available as an MP3 download or vinyl, but the disc is now on sale here at Turntabling. This is a brand new, sealed CD release on Uncle Buzz Records.

Buy The Alpha Wave Variations by Paisley Babylon for $11.00 plus shipping.


Pink Filth Sugar Shock Limited Edition LP NOW ON SALE

For Sale, , , , ,

Pink-Filth-Sugar-Shock

Now on sale at Turntabling, the legendary Texas bubblewave power pop combo PINK FILTH’s Sugar Shock LP. This is a very rare, limited edition slice of genuine Texas pop goodness.

Riff Rambo, Nick Velvet, and Baby Jessica deliver the goods on this candy-coated slab of vinyl deliciousness on sale here for the first time–and VERY difficult to find anywhere. It’s NOT available on CD or MP3, so this fun, bouncy record is an excellent buy while supplies last.

Regionally known in Texas for crazy, glittery live performances, the album captures all the fun of the live shows but studio crafted to perfection. Standout tracks include I (heart) Plastic Bags, the laid back-but-groovy TV Screen, and the unofficial theme song for Turntabling Records, Vinyl Junkie, which is worth the entire price of the LP–this song ROCKS, and totally describes what Turntabling is all about in the process–we can’t help ourselves!

Sadly, this is currently the only vinyl LP available for Pink Filth since the awesome Seventeen Bubblegum Smashes has been long out of print. If you ever find a copy of  THAT one, buy it immediately and revel in it. You’re one of the few.

Sugar Shock is one of the major highlights of  Texas indie music vinyl releases from the 2000 decade. Get it while you can!

WTF: International Winner For Worst Album Cover Ever?

WTF?, ,

bad album art all time winner female vocals

I really don’t know what the hell is going on with this album cover. I discovered this at BadRecordCovers.com and am still reeling from the effects of what is either a man in drag poking fun at hirsute women or a hirsute woman reveling in her unshaven glory. For the record–there’s nothing wrong with the hirsute look, it’s not my cup of tea exactly, but I like to keep an open mind.

What really gets me about this wretched cover is the “I farted!” expression on this person’s face combined with the freakish hand flex–is she having a stroke here or what? And WTF is going on with her OTHER hand, anyway? Combine that with the nauseous background color and you have a candidate for Possibly Worst Thought-Out Album Cover, Like, Ever.
