Once upon a time, Disq released a fantastic 7" with us through our Document Series. We saw them play a show to celebrate its release and the rest is history. Simply put, this is a massive, incredible band and we are *honored* to be releasing their debut LP 'Collector' on March 6. Watch a video for the first song, "Daily Routine," directed by Coool.
You can pre-order the record now on limited edition coke bottle clear (/200) + black vinyl, compact disc, cassette, and digitally. Even more, they'll be bringing these songs on the road for their first ever headline tour, on-sale Friday at noon local. See all dates + more info at thisisdisq.com
With Trying Not to Have a Thought, Algernon Cadwallader juggle intrinsic musical connection and shrewd lyrical intention with remarkable poise. The album’s title perfectly captures that dual approach: the effort to resist being mentally bogged down by the bottomless list of daily atrocities, and the band’s decision to let their unspoken connection guide this rejuvenated take on their classic sound. “This is just what comes out of us when these four people get in a room,” Helmis says. And this record is exactly that: an Algernon Cadwallader album that's leisurely, intensely, tremendously their own.
The 21st installment of Saddle Creek’s Document series features Whitmer Thomas, a multi-hyphenate whose unique vision has percolated across a range of mediums including TV, film, podcasts, and music. Tilt was recorded in Los Angeles with Jay Som and features contributions from Ian Farmer (Slaughter Beach Dog, Modern Baseball).
With I Hope We Can Still Be Friends, his debut for Saddle Creek, Dean Johnson makes a pact with the listener: He will sing you his truth in the most heartfelt and charming way possible, if you promise to keep an open mind.
