ELV014: MOUNT EERIE pts. 6 & 7 : book/10”This is the new release by Mount Eerie. 132 huge pages, plus a 3 panel fold-out, of natural light in the natural world, distorted and brought to life by ambient moonlight, expired film, antique cameras, and long night exposures. The photos are the visual counterpart to pretty much the entire catalog of the Microphones and Mount Eerie, spanning almost a decade. Bound within the pristine white silver foil-stamped hardcover is the new Mount Eerie EP, featuring 4 long songs: “Known World”, “Unknown World”, “Blue Light on the Floor” and “Mount Eerie Revealed”. This vinyl only release is intended to be a sequel to “Mount Eerie” by the Microphones (K records, 2003), picking up where that ambiguous myth left off and returning to firm ground to wander into the backyard in the middle of the night.
Here are the environmental statistics: it was printed on 10,000 lbs. of FSC certified 50% recycled, 35% post-consumer “Endeavor” paper (“savings”- 20 full grown trees, 60 lbs of water-borne waste, 9000 lbs solid waste, 1000 gallons of water, 1900 lbs of greenhouse gases, 14870 (000) BTU’s of energy). Now for sale! More here.

ELV016: Black Wooden Ceiling Opening by Mount Eerie : 10”+CD
Six songs of Mt. Eerie and The Microphones translated into a heavier form in preparation for a west coast tour of illegal art galleries and punk houses in November 2006. The band was Jason Anderson, Kjetil Jenssen, and Phil Elverum. “Black Wooden” is supposedly a new kind of music we are unearthing. Who knows what this sound really is? This E.P. comes with 2 fold out double sided posters (printed on recycled stock at the world renowned Hemlock Printers in Vancouver BC, the same place where the Mt. Eerie photo book was printed), a white vinyl record, and a CD that contains the E.P. as well as the world’s gnarliest bootleg of the band performing the songs (plus others) at the Dept. of Safety in Anacortes, recorded by Karl Blau (holding the cassette recorder up to the PA speaker). Eating wood in the street.
GOES WELL WITH “ROPE OR GUILLOTINE” BY THE SPECTACLE. (below)

ELV011: WELCOME NOWHERE by THANKSGIVING : double LP+CD
“Welcome Nowhere” by Thanksgiving was our first release, “ELV000”, way back in 2004. It was poorly mastered, pressed on flimsy thin vinyl, made on rough torn up covers, came with a weird CDR with pops and hiss and shit, the silkscreening had chunks of wood and stone in it, etc. Still, it sold out and ended up on ebay for some reason so we figured we might as well re-release it and we might as well include all the other amazing songs from the sessions that didn’t fit onto the first version. So here it is! Two records and a real CD (of the records), in a beautifully printed full color glossy gatefold sleeve. Side 3 is the famous rare “Pregnancy Series” ep released by States Rights Records, now on vinyl for the first time. Side 4 is unheard songs of the era, including “Waterfalls”. Everything was remastered by the excellent John Golden. We are very proud of this one.

KLP185: ADRIAN ORANGE & HER BAND : CD
After however many years humans have existed on the planet we have come to 2008. We made it. Now all of a sudden there is this C.D. among us called “Adrian Orange & Her Band”. Some of us humans made it in a church basement in Olympia, Washington (and on the roads and fringes of the wide United States) but the credit goes to the entire history of human (and inhuman) existence. Everything that happened before this was just a stepping stone in the long progression of events that culminated in late January 2007 with the committing of these songs to tape. THIS RECORD IS THE PINNACLE OF ALL HUMAN ACHIEVEMENT FOR ALL TIME EVER. Is it important to know that Adrian Orange is the person responsible for the music of “Thanksgiving” or that he is a fairly young dude from Portland, Oregon? No. No background information is needed to appreciate the previous wonders of the world; come to this music like a wet baby. It is 2008. Everything is crumbling and blooming together.

ELV009 (10”): “GRIS” by Woelv : 10”
Geneviève made these 4 long songs in preparation for a tour of Japan. They turned out to be too good for just a tour thing so we released it. They are an attempt at “prog rock” she says. Drones and mind bends. Comes with translations of the words into English. Sung in French. White vinyl.

KLP172: “Tout Seul Dans La Forêt En Plein Jour, Avez-Vous Peur?” by Woelv : 60 page book with LP
(“Alone In The Forest In The Middle Of The Day, Are You Scared?”)
This was released in Dec. 2007 by K. We are selling only the LP version. There is also a CD version but this big 12” square book is so beautiful. The CD is not quite as nice. This book/record has been called “intense”. It’s about conflict. Personally I find it very beautiful. Intense conflict and the beauty and grace that shines through. The music is sung in French, as usual, but the book contains translations into basically every single language, as well as Geneviève’s amazing artwork.
