BOR

Vinyl LP + Poster.<br/><br/>A bruising and shadowy return to form from original Smashing Pumpkins members Jimmy Chamberlin, James Iha, and Billy Corgan. Recorded in the immediate aftermath of their 33- song concept album, &lsquo;Atum&rsquo;, &#039;Aghori Mhori Mei&#039; harkens back to the band&rsquo;s early 90&rsquo;s canon; where guitars, bass, drums, and spiking vocals ruled.

The exact relationship between Henry (T-Bone Burnett) and Howard Coward (Elvis Costello) remains ambiguous. They often referred to themselves as "One and a Half Brothers," which might hint at their height difference or imply they were not actually siblings but were involved in an elaborate ruse. <br/><br/>Their musical partnership, known as The Coward Brothers, was initiated by Smiley "Doc" Snipson, who discovered Henry Coward in 1956 and signed him for a UK tour. The brothers' hit single, "My Baby Just Squeals (You Heel)," was followed by less successful records and a controversial Cold War-themed song. To preserve their fading fame, Snipson orchestrated their supposed death in a plane crash, but they were actually in hiding on a Caribbean island, secretly recording music and sending it back to Snipson.<br/><br/>When their funds ran out, they returned to Miami and made sensational claims about writing famous songs, leading to a brief stint as songwriters for Bill Bogguss. They later resumed recording, but their partnership eventually fractured, leading to years of estrangement.<br/>Their music, from early rock and roll hits to later, more introspective songs, is compiled in the album, The Coward Brothers. After years of silence, their story was explored in a radio program, revealing the complexity of their relationship and their enduring bond. Despite their tumultuous history, their music remains a testament to their unyielding spirit.<br/><br/>The Coward Brothers are Elvis Costello and T-Bone Burnett. The Audible Original radio play, The True Story Of The Coward Brothers, is directed by Christopher Guest, and stars Howard Coward, Henry Coward, Harry Shearer, Edward Hibbert, Rhea Seehorn, Stephen Root, and Kathreen Khavari.

Their 16th studio album, The Violet Flame, an emotionally-charged electro-pop album with euphoric, synth-fuelled melodies that strike instantly into the heart. The theme of transformation and new beginnings is captured in the album?s title, a literal spiritual term meaning the transformation of negative energy into positive energy, freedom and forgiveness. Erasure enlisted the production expertise of Richard X after their successful collaboration on Snow Globe, and the tracks were recorded between his London studio The Toyshop and by Clarke in his Brooklyn studio.

Heynderickx Haley: Seed of a Seed (Indie Excl.) [Vinyl LP]

The free-wheelin&rsquo; rock &lsquo;n&rsquo; soul trio DeWolff is set to release their highly anticipated 10th studio album, Muscle Shoals, on December 6th. The album was recorded last May at the legendary FAME and Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Alabama with Grammy Award-winning producer Ben Tanner, known for his work with Alabama Shakes and Dylan LeBlanc. Frontman Pablo van de Poel describes the experience as magical, saying, "Right when we played our first notes there, I got goosebumps: here was that sound I&#039;ve been hearing on all those classic albums!" Surrounded by the rich musical history of icons like Aretha Franklin, Wilson Pickett, and the Rolling Stones, DeWolff channeled the spirit of these legendary artists while staying true to their unique sound&mdash;a fiery blend of blues, soul, psychedelic, and southern rock with a distinctive Dutch twist.
