Sonic Youth - Sensational Fix [2009]
The iconic postpunk band Sonic Youth is best known for blurring musical genres and transcending the boundaries of rock guitar. Its members--Kim Gordon, Thurston Moore, Lee Ranaldo and Steve Shelley--have also, over the course of 27 years since they first started playing together, more quietly engaged in multidisciplinary solo efforts and collaborations with visual artists, filmmakers, designers and other musicians. What we're doing is always inventing itself. I have no terminology for it," according to Moore. This comprehensive 784-page volume--which includes two 7-inch records with unpublished songs by each member, album covers, band portraits and documentary photos, many of which have never been published before--is a must for fans and anyone seeking to connect the dots between New York's various cultural scenes. It features writings by band members and contributions by a host of other luminaries, including Richard Hell, Mike Kelley, Jutta Koether, Alan Licht, Lydia Lunch and John Miller."

The Raveonettes
The Raveonettes unveiled the Holiday-themed Wishing You A Rave Christmas, the final installment in the Danish duo’s four-part EP series, rounded out by September’s free Remixed EP,Sometimes They Drop By, and October’s Beauty Dies. To celebrate the series’ conclusion (and, of course, the Holiday season), the band is offering up one of the final short-player’s four dreamy Christmas numbers. “Come On Santa” boasts vintage Raves tremolo guitars and the sort of bittersweet harmonies that won Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo so many accolades after the February release of Lust Lust Lust. Speaking of, Amazon.com patrons get an exclusive version of Wishing You A Raves Christmas featuring Lust B-side “Forever In Your Arms.”

What The Press Is Saying About The Raveonettes’ Lust Lust Lust:

"...they haven't lost their touch for crafting the kinds of songs that invite you into a black-glittered parrallel universe." - FILTER
"It seduces us into coming back for more." -BILLBOARD

SWEATERS Band yang terbentuk di tahun 2000an. sudah lama sekali saya tidak mendengarkan band - band indiepop lokal seperti ini setelah Pure saturday dan rumah sakit yang sangat digemari di era 90an hingga sekarang. Musik yang dibawakan oleh sweaters simpel dan sederhana. When you smile, merupakan lagu favorit saya, ketika mendengarkan lagu tersebut membuat saya merasa tenang disaat otak kita jenuh dengan pekerjaan sehari-hari. Band asal sarah records merupakan influence mereka seperti : blueboy atau boyracer, band lokal seperti pure saturday salah satu influence dari sweaters. Album sweaters ini pantas masuk dalam daftar playlist untuk menemani perjalanan. seandainya kamu penggemar musik indiepop sarah records, tidak ada salahnya untuk mengkoleksi album-album lokal keluaran lovely records seperti : Annemarie - ABC On TV, The Fake - I'm Your Best Friend.
