Time-Lag

Got a box of new goodies from Time-Lag Records today. Hands down one of the top labels in the world, plus they represent my (at least in some ways) home state of Maine. The real gem of this batch is the By The Fruits You Shall Know The Roots 3xLP compilation, a co-release with the always awesome Eclipse Records. Six artists, each taking up half a side of wax. All housed in a beautiful, textured, triple-gatefold jacket that folds out into a massive poster styled after classic '60s rock art. Incredible. And that's before you even get the fucking thing on the turntable. Tunes from Six Organs, Jack Rose, Matt Valentine & Erika Elder w/Chris Corsano, Dredd Foole, Fursaxa and Joshua with Kemiallset Ystavat.
Also in the batch, the new Drona Parva LP. Thick black vinyl you could chip a tooth on housed in black cardstock sleeve. Meandering late-night lullabies for fever dreams and moon worship.
Finally, the no-longer-lost 1973 acid-folk LP from Brazilians Satwa. So tuned in you can hear the hum of the earth ringing in their ears...
