The Coathangers & Davila 666 “Smother” b/w “No Crees Que Ya Cansa” 7”

Limited to 750 (250 gold, 500 black) copies! Hot on the heels of their critically acclaimed 2011 album Larceny & Old Lace, the rowdy Southern garage rockers The Coathangers plan to release four limited edition split 7”s in 2012, further propelling their reputation for rambunctious rabble-rousing and a relentless work ethic. The first of the splits finds The Coathangers whipping out one of their bawdy bombasts alongside lo-fi party septet Davilla 666. The Puerto Rican group raised more than a few eyebrows recently, receiving accolades from heavyweight press outlets like Pitchfork and the LA Times, and more importantly, winning the approval of contemporary garage icons like The Black Lips and Jay Reatard. Both bands bring scratchy guitars, hip-shakin’ beats, and sing-along choruses into the fray, resulting in an essential platter of primal rock n’ roll.

White Woods “Where Did You Go” 7”

Limited to 500 (100 lavender, 400 black) copies! Guitarist/vocalist Julia Kugel established her chops with Atlanta’s The Coathangers, winning audiences over with her deceptively clever hooks and propulsive upbeat energy. But as the band put more notches on their touring and recording belt, it became clear that there was more to their repertoire than jagged guitar lines and infectious charm. Asserting her abilities as a thoughtful and nuanced songwriter, Kugel offers up her debut solo offering under the name White Woods. The project provides the kind of soulful introspective pop The Coathangers hinted at with songs like “Go Away”, but delivered in a context without the juxtaposition of the band’s barnburner garage rock numbers. The songs showcase Kugel’s beguiling forays into forlorn Americana and smoky, subdued blues.

King Tuff “Wild Desire” 7”

Limited to 750 (250 coke bottle clear, 500 black) copies! While the world waits for King Tuff to whip out another full-length dose of righteous tunes, they can find temporary satiation with the two-song Wild Desire 7” on Suicide Squeeze. Both the title track and B-side “Hole In My Head” revel in the sound of guitar jangle and unmitigated stokedness cranked into the red.
