The 90 Day Men: We Blame Chicago boxset was recently nominated for a Grammy. Massive props to Rebeka Arce and Farbod Kokabi on their Numero Group design debut. It's been an awesome ride working on this set and can't wait to cap it off while capping off the whole year next month at Empty Bottle here in Chicago.

You are going to want to check the site for this one. Venomous Tex-Mex R&B and early rock n' roll from San Antonio's West Side scene. From 1961-67, Bexar county kingmaker Abe Epstein cut every teen combo to grace the Patio Andaluz stage, launching the careers of Doug Sahm, The Royal Jesters, Sonny Ace, The Dreamliners, and hundreds more throughout the decade. Spread across two luxurious slabs of vinyl, The Cobra Label compiles 28 neurotoxic sides from Epstein's first bite in the biz.

A fitting capstone for this insane run of these 2024 Eccentric Soul pieces celebrating 20 years of highlighting the obscure, overlooked and straight dismissed sounds from the underground way before that term even existed.

Bells On Trike’s 1996 10” was issued in a handful of different covers. The second slide is what our brand new digital remaster looks like (stream it everywhere). Thinking of doing a hand screened edition… which cover should we use?

Another dumb hot batch of grailed up 45s dropping today for the disc jocks and the 7" admirers. 3 soulful slabs out of Kansas City ready to thump sweat out of your local barroom boombox. Available on their own or as a bundle. I suggest adding multiple 45 bundles to your cart today and see what kind of magic price adjustments happens. It's a good weekend to be dinked.

"Welcome to our post-armageddon box set release date. Just in time for you to add all the songs we wrote in the 90s about how money and power ruin everything to your modern soundtrack for defiance and struggle. "Don't go drown in a shallow pool. (Apparently) We've got S00000 much work for you." Tsunami's Jenny Toomy, Nov 7, 2024

Of course one of the most Indiest of Indies, DIYiest of DIYs will come up with their own caption. The Tsunami 5xLP is out today 😵‍💫🫰

Two friends, two guitars, two vocals, two mics, straight through the board to two track tape.
Songs written one night when working out a bunch of acoustic songs in their parents’ basement.
Recorded live to cassette because they were out of 1” multitrack tape in the summer of 1989 at the band’s last recording session at LSP in Annapolis, MD.
The first 500 pre-orders of The Hated - Flux (2xLP) Boxset (Flux Vinyl Variant) will include Best Piece Of S**t Vol. 5., two bonus cassettes of unreleased rarities from the Flux era.

Grab a Discman. Blonde Redhead’s formative first two albums are back on CD. Feral art rock from the gritty depths of ’90s Manhattan mixed with noisy Japanese-Italian guitar symphonies for underemployed Gen-Xers and trust fund w**d dealers alike. Out today.

From the Louis Wayne Moody Pictures vault comes the unissued soundtrack to the 1962 spy caper Call Me Old Fashioned. Recalling pop’s high-tone timbre and highball sipping post-war years, this 14-track LP muddles sugary divas, barrel-aged big band, zou bisou bisou zest, and is garnished with a Latin jazz Luxardo. A 40 minute stereo-sonic adventure for the Seven and Seven spy-fi fanatic OR the soundtrack to your next cocktail party.

In case you missed Unwound during their New Plastic Ideas 30th anniversary shows, the band gave us some very limited-edition tour merch.
Bundle the 30th anniversary limited edition of New Plastic Ideas on LP or CD (designed by Justin Trosper as an homage to Dan Armstrong’s clear guitars for Ampeg), a split 7” with Steel Pole Bath Tub (limited to 500), plus a striking Usual Dosage mug for your morning liquid of choice.

Thinking of changing the label name now...One of the major highlights of the Portland Pop-Up was the .fm DJ set. Chelsea came through and ripped a killer 3hr emo+ set and even brought out all these OG copies of Now On Numero future classics. Had to run over to Stitchworks and get a 1 of 1 custom job done as a thank you!

If you missed out in person, check out the .fm show every Monday (tonight) on Portland's 10pm Pacific and let us know if we should run any more Nur Emo head pieces.

Hailing from Florida’s sunny St. Augustine, Don Martin Three embraced a unique blend of emo and performance art during their brief existence.
The high school trio’s explosive 1996 debut 12” defies traditional song structure, delivering rhythmic bass-backed poetry that explodes into unbridled emotion. 5-track self-titled LP is available to stream today.

Willie Wright’s journey took him from Harlem to Nantucket. Trapped on the island by winter, he poured his life experiences - love, family, and loss - into his songs, culminating in the album “Telling The Truth.”
Despite collaborating with seasoned musicians, the album remained largely unknown, sold from the trunk of a car and at a few local stages.
