PURE BATHING CULTURE (from Portland, OR. on Partisan Records, ex Desert City Soundtrack)

“Heavy on retro atmosphere and surf rock riffs, but it's also a promising display of the group's sharp, hooky songcraft.” – Pitchfork
“Dreamy, beachy tunes that'll make you want to go on a road trip with your BFFs and never come back.” – Bust Magazine
“Tracks that stick you in the middle of a surfy, stony, dance-y, girl-group garage party.” – The Portland Mercury
“A few weeks ago, during their sold-out show at Magma Fest, it hit me that I'm not the only person who has caught on to them. All of Seattle DIY was there that night and was in love, everyone crammed into each other's space bubbles just to get a listen.” – The Stranger (Seattle)

PERFECT PUSSY (from Syracuse, NY. featuring ex Shoppers)
“On stage, front woman Meredith Graves has the charisma of a star in the making.” - Billboard
“I Have Lost All Desire for Feeling, instantly evokes basement shows rank with fresh sweat, dark except for strings of christmas lights, windows shaking, overloaded PA bleating away, and the band across the jampacked room discernible only by the occasional upward-flung limb. If you make it to one of this Syracuse band’s two outer-borough shows this week, expect to leave with bangs dripping, ears keening, and heart pounding.” - papermag
“One of the boldest new rock bands.” - Pitchfork
“These punk kids from the mean streets of Syracuse, New York, deliver high-energy slabs of mayhem-friendly post punk noise, a wall of guitar and Casio. Meredith Graves knows how to run her mosh pit like a dictator runs a birthday party.” - Rolling Stone
“One of the best debuts you’re likely to hear this year.” - Stereogum

Swearin' (members of P.S. Eliot, Big Soda, Radiator Hospital, and Bad Blood - on Salinas Records)
"This is punk verging on indie rock a la the Measure [SA] and Cheap Girls, with a heavy debt to '90s groups like Breeders, Juliana Hatfield Three and the Rentals" - Punknews.org
"It's refreshing to find a group that sounds sincerely as though it's got nothing to hide." - Pitchfork
"I want to try and explain the effect Swearin’ has on me because the album swells with the things I crave — literally, crave — from music." - Dusted Magazine
"The words “indie rock” are crucial here. While the term has long since ceased to have value as a descriptor, Swearin’ deliver a sound that could serve as a definition for what the genre used to be. (Band To Watch)" - Stereogum

AGRIMONIA (members of Skitsystem, Martyrdöd, Miasmal, and At the Gates)
"Gruesom crust-metalers Agrimonia formed in 2005 in Ggothenburg, Sweden. Originally inspired by the heaviness of Bolt Thrower, but taking their time to form an entity of their own... Their sound can be described as a mix of doom metal and Swedish crust, whose dark intensity leaves you both angst-ridden and animated." - Maximum Rocknroll (issue #355)
"There are massive solos and full moments of silence, death metal croaks and pleasant harmonies in the distance... a truly marvelous work of art." - Pitchfork
“Though the personnel of members of Martyrdöd, Skitsystem and At the Gates may indicate a certain aesthetic, Gothenburg’s Agrimonia are truly emblematic of the term eclectic… the band uses solo piano/guitar, touches of industrial and ambiance to let more intense passages of death metal, sludge/doom, black metal, post-rock and crust breathe.” - Invisible Oranges
on tour with Take Over And Destroy (TOAD) (feat. mem of Landmine Marathon)
"dishing out sludgy doom and bludgeoning black metal in near-equal measure" - Pitchfork
"This sextet infuse their sound with a multitude of influences and as such have set out to create an epic take on the genres that they so deftly inhabit whilst traversing the plains of horror" - Cvlt Nation

U.S Girls (http://yousgirls.blogspot.com/)
"Meghan Remy makes haunted highway songs. Her records, which she releases under the name U.S. Girls, conjure a moment deep in the bleary-eyed hours of an overnight drive, when you've stumbled upon an eclectic radio program hosted by somebody too hypnotizingly weird to be trusted with a primetime slot. (If they belong in any David Lynch movie, it's Lost Highway, no doubt.)" - Pitchfork
"U.S. Girls mastermind Meghan Remy isn't going to let you experience a piece of her art without kicking in a little brainpower" - Spin magazine

Pop. 1280 (on Sacred Bones Records)
"NYC’s hardest-working scumbags in the scuzzfuckery business" - Village Voice
''The sonic backdrop of these dystopian vignettes remains largely unchanged from their previous effort: an industrial punk chassis tricked out with a sickly patina of Birthday Party guitar and 80s slasher movie synth.' - Tiny Mixtapes
"After some pretty flawlessly disgusting 12“s, NYC scumsuckers Pop. 1280 have finally returned for their debut slab of synth-tweaked, gutter-gazing, jeans-pissing noise-rock." - SPIN

THE BODY (Thrill Jockey/At A Loss)
For 10 years the rumors have slowly spread from the Mid-South through the New England region of the United States of a group, known as THE BODY, declaring war on all they consider “FALSE” through rituals involving solid state amplification and jolting percussion. Their latest addition to the arsenal against the contrived is All The Waters Of The Earth Turn To Blood. The duo has allied itself with the Assembly of Light Choir and members of bands as varied as Bonedust, Callers, Dead Times, Fang Island, Human Beast, Lichens, Made In Mexico, Otesanek, Trtrkmmr, What Cheer Brigade, & Work/Death on their latest.

OUTER MINDS (ex Lover!, Baseball Furies, Dirges, Black Beauties, on Hozac/Southpaw)
"Chicago’s explosive Outer Minds have finally come to the surface after simmering in the underworld in several different incarnations over the past few years, and with unbelievably great results. Sharpening their sound into a legion of 60s pop/psych textures and nuances normally reserved for the baroque set with their impeccable glockenspiel-laden arrangements, Outer Minds weave a rich web of sound around impossibly perfect hooks and deliver an impressive EP worthy of your immediate attention. Lead by Zach Medearis (Black Beauties, Lover!) and A-Ron Orlowski’s (Baseball Furies, Lover!, Dirges) fine assemblage of rough-cut harmonies, everything fell into place to create this sumptuous wall of sound that will blow your little mind to bits." -Todd Novak/Hozac Records

select / stateside / etc...promotions presents:
EX-CULT (from Memphis - featuring members of Vile Nation, and Magic Kids. on Goner Records)
Taking cues from the psychedelic noise of the 1960’s, the art-damaged post-punk of the late 1970’s, and the aggression and immediacy of early 1980’s US Hardcore, Ex-Cult has curated a sound that audiences nationwide find accessible, yet not quite like anything else they’ve heard.
Conceived at the legendary Memphis dive, the Lamplighter, by longtime friends Michael Peery (drums) and Chris Shaw (vocals), the band played their first show three months after the first practice, immediately gaining a local fan base and grabbing the attention of the Memphis punk institution known as Goner Records.
After going through a name change (from Sex Cult to Ex-Cult) and releasing a couple of now impossible to find singles, Ex-Cult headed to San Francisco to record with producer and fan Ty Segall. The result is a post-punk juggernaut, oozing with flying saucer fuzz guitar, a pummeling rhythm section, and snarling vocals. Ex-Cult heads out on their first US tour this January supporting Ty Segall, with plans to release a handful of records in 2013 already in the works.
SHE*RIFFS (featuring Alice Bag of The Bags and Castration Squad, with members of JJCNV, and French Girls)
