Formed in 1979 in Buffalo, NY they originally went by the name The Toys. One year later they released their 7″. In the early 80’s they changed their title to the New Toys along with their sound. By 1982 they were a regular part of the CBGB scene and had befriended the likes of Johnny Thunders, Cheetah Chrone and Iggy Pop. They also released their LP “Say It” that same year. By 1984 the New Toys called it quits.

This LP includes studio & live tracks.

synthesizer to pine cones to laptop and more. He primarily works as a solo musician but has worked in a variety of musical situations with
Jeph Jerman, Zach Wallace (as Sun Circle), Keith Fullerton Whitman,
Sebastien Roux, Steven Hess, Joseph Grimm and Akron/Family. Davis has released lots of music on labels such as Carpark, Kranky, Important, Tompkins Square, Tonschacht, Room40, Ghostly and more. He has toured and travelled around the world sharing his openness to all sounds and musical experiences. Davis makes his home in Burlington, Vermont where he works on music, audio mastering and has been active in developing a new scene for other musics. Greg’s recent live sets have focused on a shared meditative drone experience which creates an environment conducive for the practice of deep listening in the present moment with a clear mind free of prejudice.

Lussuria (NY)
http://www.lussuria.cjb.net/

Lussuria performs Ambient Noise nostalgic for the early days of the
genre. Citing pioneers as Halfler Trio, Mlehst, Maeror Tri, and NON,
the music of Lussuria fluxuates between collaged soundscapes, hypnotic drones, and noise rumbling. Formed in 2006, Lussuria have released material through such labels as Hospital Productions, Amortout, Destructive Industries, and Razors and Medicine. In addition, have performed stateside and abroad. Currently the project have completed work on a full length due out on
Hospital Productions later this year.

Geoff Mullen (RI)
http://www.rareyouth.org/

I first became aware of Mullen’s guitar excursions through his
additions to the excellent Invisible Pyramid box set put out a few
years ago by Providence based Last Visible Dog records. In addition to introducing me to the beautiful writing of Loren Eisley, that
expansive 6 CD document has yielded countless hours of aural bliss
with Mullen’s contributions being my personal favorites. On that set,
Mullen transcended mere Takoma worship with his use of subtle white noise that only enhanced his beautiful acoustic guitar playing. Having followed Mullen’s career since then it is evident the man is a
restless creative spirit and one of a handful of guitarists who can
still keep things interesting. – Jeff Conklin (Avant Ghetto)

September 14th: Greg Davis + Ben Vida/Geoff Mullen/Lussuria

Named after a Kyuss song, Spaceship Landing is a german stoner/psychedelic/70’s inspired rock band. Their 2006 self-titled and self-financed lp is truly impressive. The instrumental sounds just huge, dominating the vocals. On some songs the sound is completed by keyboards/organs and spacecraft beeps. -last.fm

Review on Lords Of Metal.

Fantastic stuff, thick psychedelic grooves all over the place. Too bad this great band split up a while ago…

Dave Smith

Every song has a great little catchy guitar riff and a cool melody. Most of the songs check in at about 2 minutes and it’s very easy to like. Some of it may not have aged well and is locked into the early-80’s new wave time frame, but it’s still well worth listening to.

Albert Glasser – Earth vs. the Spider (Unreleased Score)

What is kind of surprising, albeit awesome, is that our good buddy Bart’s stabs at ‘Let’s Go’ are quite possibly second fiddle on the EP to two eighteen year old lads from Scotland. Rumor has it these kids worked at a McDonald’s before the likes of Fake Blood and Tiga started playing their track out. Boys and girls, meet Clouds. Recently signed to Turbo you should be hearing big, big things from them in the near future.

Com.a has a style of his own. Him along with the rest of the Tigerbeat crew (Cycheouts, Kid606, Cex, Knifehandchop, Sickboy etc) just put out awesome stuff. Just get it and enjoy

I know it’s unusual for us to re-post stuff we re-uploaded but since this never really got uploaded (due to my stupidity) and someone wants it I guess it’s for the best. Plus it’s a good album so who’s complaining?

The rest is here: 
Com.a – Shot of Love (2002) (Re-upload)

Released in 1980, this compilation was recorded in 1979 at the Moonlight Club in London, England. Combining both known and unknown bands, this is a great comp. that also features The Damned appearing under the alias of The School Bullies playing “Lookin’ For Another” (”Teenage Dream”). One of my favorite Damned tunes, also performed by the White Cats. Unfortunately, they never did a studio recording of it.
