prince rama - xtreme now (black/neon green starburst limited to 300 copies). up on bullmoose for those in the USA and norman records / rough trade in the UK. xtreme now is the most extreme album prince rama has ever made. the band consists of the larson sisters, who wrote the album while living on a black metal utopian commune off the coast of estonia. one of the sisters (taraka) had a near death experience inside an ancient viking ruin which led to a sense of time-schizophrenia, specifically a physical sensation of existing simultaneously in the medieval ages and the year 2067. influenced by prophetic visions of energy drink sponsored art museums, speed beauty, and sky diving with mona lisa parachutes, the album provides the score to the reality that time travel is possible via the gateway of extreme sports. from the upcoming album: prince rama - bahia https://soundcloud.com/carparkrecords/prince-rama-bahia-1 prince rama - now is the time of emotion https://soundcloud.com/carparkrecords/prince-rama-now-is-the-time-of-emotion

Carpark Records will be releasing the new GRMLN record Soon Away on September 16th. I can't seem to find the numbers, but Carpark & GRMLN are encouraging people who want the limited blue vinyl to get it soon. Insound is offering both the blue and regular... so who knows when it'll be gone. From INSOUND: Comes on blue vinyl and includes a download code! With Soon Away, GRMLN veers from the pop-punk-rooted road the band started on with last year’s Empire. It’s an aggressive album, darker and heavier than what’s come before. While it carries these characteristics, there is also a certain peace to Soon Away, thanks to songwriter Yoodoo Park’s personal growth. The album grapples with letting go and getting used to goodbyes. “Find a way to be wanted and here for someone else/ Break away from the notion, the poison in my head,” Park sings on the cathartic “Faux.” The singer-guitarist sees the constant changes of life allowing people to embrace the true nature of living. The teachings of Krishna were an inspiration to Park while writing the record and it’s a force that helped define Park’s perspective in these songs. Still, there’s an intensity to these guitar-driven tracks. “Go, but you're breaking without me/ When days can crawl around/ To waste myself away,” Park sings on opener “Jaded,” which is built around one of GRMLN’s catchiest riffs.
