GRIMEY'S INDIE-ONLY HOTNESS!
Cool, limited edition releases only available in finer independent record stores. In Nashville, that means Grimey's!

MAGNETIC MORNING - CD EP
DH Records is proud to announce the release of Magnetic Morning's self-titled debut EP. No ordinary side project, Magnetic Morning represent one of the more inspired collaborations in recent memory. The new duo are an uncanny hand-in-glove pairing of two alternarock heavyweights: Swervedriver (and Toshack Highway) singer/guitarist/songwriter Adam Franklin and Interpol drummer Sam Fogarino. And beyond the sum of such impressive parts, their new debut five-song EP for their own DH Records is as mesmerizing as it is a different tack from their previous bodies of work.

THE WOMBATS - CD EP
"Fizzing with laddish humor and lung-emptying choruses, the Wombats' disc is Britpop suited for frenzied pogoing. Think Franz Ferdinand's sharp corners mixed with Art Brut's meta-poetry." -Spin

"There's more to The Wombats than just knuckle-headed indie-by-numbers. By total accident they seem to have stumbled upon the perfect formula for the indie-rock disco anthem, and for this they should be lauded. We suggest you enjoy The Wombats - because they are sure as hell going to be around for a while yet." -NME

JOSH RITTER - Live At The 9:30 Club CD

DJ SHADOW / CUT CHEMIST - The Hard Sell (Encore)
This is Chapter 3 in the Freeze/ Product Placement saga...all live. It all started with a phone call (or, in this case, a text message) "would you want to do Freeze at the Hollywood Bowl?" Cut Chemist and DJ Shadow jumped at the chance to be the first-ever headlining turntablists at the legendary 16,500 capacity venue, the site of infamous concerts by everyone from John Williams to the Beatles to the Doors. In the process of preparing for the June 2007 show, Shadow and Cut recorded their rehearsals, allowing for this latest and greatest episode in all-45 mayhem: The Hard Sell. The first version of the CD, which featured a die-cut, DVD style cover, is now completely sold out. This NEW version of the CD, recorded several months later, includes much of the material the duo had to scrap due to time constraints at the Bowl...and also a few routines deemed too complicated to attempt at the time! Now you can experience The Hard Sell the way it was originally intended, with the expanded Hard Sell (Encore) CD!

As with Freeze and Product Placement, the emphasis is on the eclectic; funk and hip-hop are present as is some rock. But Hard Sell is leaps and bounds beyond the expected, on a musical basis, as well as technical. Now utilizing 8 turntables and 2 loop pedals, new possibilities in live mixing are explored, as doo-wop mixes with punk, new wave with grime, and everything in between, all with taste and humor. Several classic hip-hop tracks are even "sampled" (via loop pedal) and reconstructed in real time, from their original elements.

Now you can finally hear what all of the buzz has been about. Forget mash-ups, forget computers, and never mind the MP3s, this is real turntablism at its genre-bending, skills-dominated best.

OLD CROW MEDICINE SHOW - Eutaw CD
2001 studio recording previously only available through the band's website or at live gigs. Now at finer indie stores like Grimey's!

PORCUPINE TREE - We Lost The Skyline (Live) CD
On the 4th October 2007 PORCUPINE TREE arrived for an in-store performance and signing session at Park Avenue CDs in Orlando, Florida, with 200 fans also in attendance. Although it was originally planned that the full band would play, lack of space dictated that only the 2 guitarists / singers Steven Wilson and John Wesley deliver an impromptu performance, including many songs rarely (if ever) played by the band, making for a very special and intimate show. Fortunately this one-off performance was captured by Full Sail (with their remote recording facility) and the complete 8 song, 33 minute show is now being released in a digipak sleeve created by photographer Lasse Hoile and designer Carl Glover. Coming soon: LIGHTBULB SUN double CD deluxe re-issue.

KATIE HERZIG - Weightless CD
From even the first note of a KATIE HERZIG tune, you know you've stumbled into something special. Maybe it's the way she juxtaposes lyrical playfulness and whimsy with incredibly thoughtful depth and emotion. Maybe it's her stunning, delicately powerful voice. Doesn't really matter. The captivating effect is in full force. From her college days in the Boulder-based band Newcomers Home to her 2005 solo debut Watch Them Fall, Katie has always worked on tender acoustic renderings that reveal the emotional inner-workings of a seeker of truth and love. Not wasting any momentum or time, Katie moved to Nashville in 2006 and offered up WEIGHTLESS. From the delightful romps that kick it off, to the mesmerizing heart aches that slip in toward the end, it's a powerful journey that must be taken. In support of Weightless, Katie has opened shows for The Fray and many others, while also making time for the PASTE Songwriters tour. To take matters even further, a cover of her song 'Heaven's My Home' (performed by The Duhks) was nominated for a 2007 Grammy for Best Country Performance! She has also had TV placements on various shows including 'Grey's Anatomy,' 'Smallville' and 'ER'.
