If you're famished for Spector-ian fuzz, overdriven guitar whorls and all morsels of lo-fi, you should probably download this immediately (after you crank your levels into the red so you can hear its low tones properly on your headphones). Released as a sampler from the brand new, Brooklyn-based label Blackburn Recordings, it features bands from some of their past and future releases—i.e. Sultan's cottony dream-pop and Big Troubles' electrified meandering—plus excellent, guitar-amped tracks from their psychic bros like Campfires, Cloud Nothings, Coasting and Metal Rouge. This is the music people are doing in their musty basement cubicles right now, which is coincidentally similar to what people were doing in their musty basement cubicles a decade ago. Time is cyclical. Tracklist after the jump.
