Attacknine Records

We've started digging deep into the Attacknine Archives, preparing a slew of Re-Issues, and Previously Unreleased Music from Casino Versus Japan, Freescha, and Am-boy.  More news to come on these in the coming months, but for now we can say that the artwork and layout for one release has been completed (coming on Vinyl, Compact Disc, and Cassette), and we are in the beginning stages of creating the artwork and layout for another (coming on Triple Vinyl, Double Compact Disc, and Cassette).

To kick things off, we've brought back the Classic Attacknine “Visitor” Logo, as well as the original “ATTACK:9 RECORDS” typeface originally printed on the very first Freescha 12" jacket and created by Hologram Rinse (Erik Alwill), now available for the first time on a bunch of different Shirt, Hoodie, and Poster options.

Am-Boy returns to Attacknine, after far too many years apart, following 2007’s Horrible Oracle Blessedness full-length, and a digital single in 2015 (the A-side of which opens this new and not-so-new collection). For many longtimers who have followed Attacknine and its peripheries, Am-Boy needs no introduction at all. (And for those folks - the material here is a bit rare, a bit stray, a bit unreleased, and lovingly given a new coat of paint with a warm mastering pass). 
For the uninitiated, Am-Boy makes music that evokes a colorwheel of emotions and past life portraits with a deliberation and vividness that can't really be found elsewhere. Grandiose chord changes played on shimmering rainbow calliopes, sad-summer melodies effortlessly pouring from space wizard synthesizers, with the safest head-nodding rhythm section you've ever heard. Peppered throughout this mixture are field recordings of watery playtimes, bits of speech dappled in and out like sunlight peeking through tree branches, all coalescing together into a lush glowing saturation, like a Polaroid of a carnival you can't quite remember going to. 
With Am-Boy's music, there's no need to remember anymore - pressing play is as good as punching your ticket, and letting the sunshine flood back into your room.

Night Sequels returns! Almost! SLUG is one of two new Night Sequels releases, a maxi-single perhaps (remember those?).  A sister collection to TASCAMS (2010-2021), informal and improvised.

For the second single from the Summer's Parting Ways LP, Brian Grainger's "Pale Meadow" offers a moody new wave jaunt through the beachside arcades, boulevard nightlife and tourist-town isolation of his upbringing in Myrtle Beach - mockingly referred to as "The Bland Strand" by Brian and his friends during the aching and mostly miserable years he spent there. "Pale Meadow" instrumentally explores now-vanished amusement parks like the Pavilion, or the now-swampland that once was Lake Busbee, through the memory-eyes of stoned, poolhopping kids, bored in a sad Summer, surrounded by neon, humidity and shallow seasonal escapism, all a pretty distraction from the fact that real escape was and is nearly impossible in such a place. Perhaps it's always this way, in youth, forever feeling like the world just out of your reach is the place you truly belong to. Nothing left to ponder as you zone out staring at the surface of the pool under the hotel lights, every night the same as the last, but you think about it all the same. "Pale Meadow" is the convergence of that resignation and the wishing for more, dissonant and colliding, just like the Blue Wheatfield, endless strumming fanfares for those downhearted nights that were the entire world, for a time, while the urgency of the future and the defiance of the now presses on as only youthful naivete can, regardless of cost or outcome. It has led us here, where the "Pale Meadow" opens up for all of us, and jumping in the back seat for the ride this time is Night Sequels, who brought his own mixtape along, a mutant nightclubbed version of "Swamp Bike" from the Highschool Guitar 12", which provides a momentary delirium before the lucid moment creeps back in with "Frayed Hem", a long slow curtain that drapes down in the form of an Eight Thousander-style guitar loop meditation, a willful erasing of the tape reel in your brain, fuzzy and out of focus, repetition as ritual and exorcism. 30 minutes of spaced-out bedroom guitar music that follows the sad magic of Summer's Parting Ways with another branching path.
