Artist: FERRARO, JAMES
Title: Far Side Virtual
Label: HIPPOS IN TANKS
Format: LP
Price: $19.00
Catalog #: HIP 013LP
"James Ferraro paints a 21st century still life on his debut album for Hippos In Tanks. The record is called Far Side Virtual. Each song, a melodious reflection of the moment now, comes shrink-wrapped in HD fidelity as glossy as a 2012 Toyota Prius. Ferraro's muse is some enigmatic modern metropolis, where the streets are as slick as i-Pads, and where the symphonies ring with Macbook message alerts. Through the steam rising from our latte mocha chinos, he invites us to gaze out at the dreamy disorientation of our digital lives. Imagine a Darius Milhuad-guided tour of 5th Avenue. Imagine a Whole Foods bakery that sells only cakes emblazoned with frosting replicas of Camille Pissarro's 'Haying at Eragny.' These are the surreal utopias Ferraro brings to life with sixteen swirly-pop concoctions sure to sell out at the candy stores. So slip in your ear buds, and welcome to Far Side Virtual." Ferraro's masterwork, including a digital download code.

Title: Last American Hero
Label: OLDE ENGLISH SPELLING BEE
Format: LP
Price: $19.00
Catalog #: OESB 037LP
Repressed. "Remastered reissue of an obscure tape that came out in a Europe-only edition in late 2008 on Dreamtime Taped Sounds - the label run by Lieven Martens of Dolphins Into The Future. This is a very unique work in the massive Ferraro discography as it employs rock instrumentation in a minimalist fashion to dazzling effect. Features the tracks 'F-150 Night Eros At The Highways End', 'Blacktop Tumble Weed: Empty Monster Energy Drink Can', & 'Headlines (Access Hollywood)'. Limited edition of 450 copies. Includes a download coupon for the mp3 version." "Fantastic new album from James Ferraro - a series of meditations on American concepts of heroism and freedom as refracted via MTV, Hollywood and various black magic marketing strategies. Starts off with an unexpected slow avant blues guitar piece that picks up organ and synth to sound uncannily like early Charalambides before breaking into an electric boogie that serves to conflate notions of authentic outlaw forms and clichéd rebel shorthand while sounding totally fucked up." -- David Keenan, Volcanic Tongue

"...a grand statement." -- FACT Magazine (#11 on their 40 best albums of 2010 list)
