Artist: BARDO POND
Title: Bufo Alvarius
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 015CD
Philadelphia indie-psych; at its best this might sit on the same blurry couch as FSA or something. Some of the more standard tracks are mere plodding gunk with distortion brushed on top. CD has a 29 minute bonus track.


Artist: RANALDO, LEE
Title: Scriptures of the Golden Eternity
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 017CD
Reissue of the Father Yod LP; guitar, tape and voice, recorded live at the K. Factory in '88/89.


Artist: MONTGOMERY, ROY
Title: Scenes From The South Island
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 022CD
Solo album of instrumental pastoral drone from an ex-member of the Pin Group & Dadamah.


Artist: MONTGOMERY, ROY
Title: 324 E. 13th Street #7
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 028CD
"Sixteen songs from now out-of-print singles, originally released by Drunken Fish, Siltbreeze, Roofbolt, Ajax, and Varispeed. The Shallows' songs, laid down three years after Roy's sides with the Pin Group, were recorded in the midst of a Kiwi-pop boom that still admitted the single as a viable means of expression. The rest were laid down nine years later in two separate bursts of recording on either side of the United States during the format's Indian Summer."


Artist: BROTHER JT
Title: Rainy Day Fun
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 030CD
Following various LPs on Twisted Village and Bedlam, plus a recent Siltbreeze project, Philadelphia's Brother JT moves over to this SF-based label for a one-off, his most attached to the realities commonly referred to as "consensual". "Drunken Fish is proud to bring you yet another side of the four-way flash with Rainy Day Fun, a decidedly 'pop' affair, dealing with the impact of a rainy Sunday afternoon, THC induced fog, and the sickening 'here we go' feeling sometimes associated with love."


Artist: RH BAND
Title: Third Order Parasitism
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 033CD
"The debut full-length release from this surreptitious, improvising California quartet, unquestionably a listen apart from any post-space/noise dint you can think of. Employing an array of pawned, found, broken, and home-made instruments (both common and unique), rhBand tenaciously investigate the space in between and around avant noise, space rock and modern composition. Like a shimmering aggregate of Organum, Pelt, and Electronic Meditation-era Tangerine Dream, rhBand handily set the controls for the foyer of Radulescu's Black Sea chateau, and more often than not, end up in his smoke-filled basement."


Artist: BROTHER JT
Title: Come On Down
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 035CD
"Recorded at roughly the same time as Rainy Day Fun...Come On Down is an an even more personal affair. With a double-shot of acid-ego filet mixed with carefree hair-swagger pop-sike...on the border between mortality and afterlife, pleading with Jesus and all the holiest to 'take off that crown and come on down,' JT stands as a national treasure on par with Capt. Beefheart, Skip Spence and J. Bone Crow."


Artist: BILL/JACK ROSE, JASON
Title: Via St. Louis
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 036CD
"Jason Bill was previously the second guitarist in Texas' much loved Charalambides. Jack Rose currently bends all manner of stringed instruments in Virginia's improvisational unit Pelt. Via St. Louis captures to tape a weekend spent plugged into a mostly functioning 4-track and staring into the white dot center of the sun."


Artist: RHBAND
Title: First Tone
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 039CD
"Pack your pipe and loosen your jaws -- the California-based improvising collective known for their extended explorations of the ur-drone are coming to town. Hide your cracked electronics and homemade long-string instruments, because that's what these inhalers crave. Once you hear how much better than you they play 'em, you'll be an avowed stamp-licker."


Artist: MONTGOMERY, ROY
Title: And Now The Rain Sounds Like Life Is Falling Down Through It
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 041CD
"Highly anticipated solo album, his first in three years. Combining the pastoral drone of his instrumental guitar pieces with a strange twist in his quasi-folk songwriting and additional voices to the mix via piano and e-bow, And Now The Rain... is a stunning amalgam of soft-spoken isolation and soul-searing higher mindedness -- Fichelscher/Fricke arrangements filtered through a post-Velvets third-eye mind with an unmistakable Montgomery strum."


Artist: STARFUCKERS
Title: Infrantumi
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 042CD
"Starfuckers are an Italian collective...they create self-described 'concrete rock' that is at times so severely disconnected and minimal that the listener must mentally piece together the fragments. Imagine a place where This Heat and Oval meet."


Artist: BIRCHVILLE CAT MOTEL
Title: Siberian Earth Curve
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 043CD
"Campbell Kneale is a New Zealander with an impeccable ear for layering feedback, recorder, cymbals and electronic squall. Does the stillness of a Thomas Köner piece get you there on a regular basis? Maybe Aube-acious high-end volume sweats stir your coffee? Pull into the BCM parking lot. Validation upon request."


Artist: HASH JAR TEMPO
Title: Under Glass
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 044CD
"Montgomery and Bardo Pond met again during a whirlwind visit to SF in the spring of '98 to perform at the widely publicized Terrastock II music fest, where the sequel plan was hatched. Off to the east coast the HJT did perambulate, where, in Bardo's newly christened in-house eight-track studio, great slabs of guitar and keyboard drift were churned, bass grooves were deepended and staggered rhythms were topped with a kiss of flute and quiet mumble. The fog quickly lifted, plane schedules were met and respective lives were resumed. End result: 56 minutes at five miles per hour. Absolutely massive."


Artist: MONTGOMERY, ROY
Title: The Allegory of Hearing
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 047CD
"Recorded in Montgomery's harbor cottage in Lyttleton, New Zealand, during October 1998 on his trusty Tascam Porta One and mixed in January 2000, Allegory is a return to an instrumental palette first witnessed on his debut Drunken Fish CD Scenes From The South Island and the Temple IV CD on Kranky. Armed with a newly acquired Rickenbacker 12-string and vintage Farfisa electric organ, plus the usual Teisco, e-bow, and Quadraverb arsenal, Montgomery has created eight short soundtracks of a particularly meditative nature."


Artist: MAGIC CARPATHIANS
Title: Project Ethnocore 2: Nytú
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: DF 048CD
"Magic Carpathians are centered around the duo of Anna Nacher and Marek Styczynski, founding members of the now defuct Polish ethno-folk group Atman. Following the disbanding of Atman, Anna and Marek continue to create forest music, although the Magic Carpathians benefit from an infusion of traditional rock instruments and electronics, and a host of guests. Traces of nytú -- a mythical, archaic technique of vocalization given in the language of Slavonic rituals, nowadays almost completely lost and forgotten -- can be found in the remnants of ancient Carpathian culture and some archaic pagan rituals which have been stored within the folk religious tradition among the Carpathian villagers. The important common tradition of singing across Eurasia makes similar the vocal technique from Mongolia, the Altai region, Central Asia, Ukraine and the Balkan region. Anna has been working on reviving the tradition of nytú through individual research and 'Reclaim the Voice' workshops, run for women exclusively."


Artist: VA
Title: Harmony of the Spheres
Label: DRUNKEN FISH
Format: 2CD
Price: $18.00
Catalog #: DF 050CD
"Good old Pythagoras. He is many things to many people. The prototypical stoner, an ancient template for all subsequent seekers hungry for consciousness expansion, the master of prophecies involving a bunch of rocks floating in a vacuum. He defined harmony as 'an arrangement of the contents of the gospels designed to show their parallelism, mutual relations, and differences.' Harmony of the Spheres was originally released by Drunken Fish in November of 1996 as a specially designed, triple LP boxset, produced in an edition of 3000." Artists include: Bardo Pond, Flying Saucer Attack, Jessamine, Roy Montgomery, Loren Mazzacane Connors, Charlambides.
