Live It is - Posie

Alive Before the Iceberg is practically a live album by Seattle Alternative rock band The Posies. It was recorded live at Luz De Gas (in Barcelona, Spain) on July 28th, 1998. Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow' power pop group summed up their spree playing with the Spaniards half-drunk but Rocked loud still.

SEBADOH - SECRET EP

Wonder Drug

It's Sebadoh's new EP, an EP apparently before the upcoming 2013 LP album. These songs won't be on that LP. Emphasis on that, "none of these songs will appear on their forthcoming album". Jason, Lou and Bob D'Amico on drums. Lou and Jason, both on their writing prowess, songs 1,3,5 written by Lou and songs 2,4 written by Jason. And still Jason and Lou, the perfect balance of se-ba-doe.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - BLATANT DOOM TRIP

Incurable Me
by R.C. Avellanosa

 

Another Guided By Voices tribute compilation. I lost count. From 1998, eighteen tracks from seventeen predominantly obscure Canadian artists. Don't get your hopes up, but it's the best GBV tribute there is. Thurston Moore,  Shelley on Stabbing A Star as Male Slut, early Gem (Doug Gillard) on My Impression Now. Real impressive. Choose to abuse this, just to unlock your mind.
