York Factory Complaint formed in 2009 as a two-piece, but within a year and a half, founding members Ryan Martin and Michael Berdan had worked with live collaborators from Genesis Breyer P-Orridge to Domokos of Future Blondes. The band’s permanent membership also swelled to four with the addition of Theresa Smith and Michael Yaniro. After a series of recordings with the newly expanded lineup, Smith and Yaniro left the group in 2012. Lost in the Spectacle, YFC’s first release for Accidental Guest Recordings, is the result of the original, streamlined duo of Martin and Berdan formalizing the sound of their project in the studio for the first time since the departure of their former bandmates. It’s also the definitive statement of where the band stands today.

Conceived as a sort of sonic embodiment of Martin and Berdan’s increasingly disgusted worldview, Lost in the Spectacle builds around its noisy industrial back- bone with surprising, beat-driven passages and intense, all-too-human vocals. For an album so unrelenting, though, it offers a certain accessibility that’s uncom- mon in contemporary noise music. Lost in the Spectacle is an extended hand, an invitation to the impressive work Martin and Berdan are doing. It’s immediately striking, but repeated listens reveal its depth. This is a statement record, and the message comes through loud and clear: Tune out the bullshit. This is what’s real.

Technicolor Teeth - Can You Keep Me Out Of Hell - tour only cassette

Can You Keep Me Out Of Hell is the first 2014 release from Wisconsin’s downer pop noisemakers, Technicolor Teeth. The cassette gathers previously released singles and new material into one fully realized release. New songs, “My Darkest Love” and “Tomb” spring to life with a circular pop structure that leaves you wishing they would go on forever. “Alone On A Cloud” continues to perfect the dream-like sonics that Technicolor Teeth highlighted on their last single, “Blood Pool.” Its vulnerable vocals laced over drone-y and dreamy instrumentation feels like a memory you hold close and never want to let go. And they don’t limit themselves to slow burners – “First Born” has a bursting youthful power pop undertone that few bands achieve with the complete confidence that Technicolor Teeth has in spades. If songs like “Drips” and “Sage” from last year’s highly acclaimed 7 inches were the announcement that Technicolor Teeth are a band to watch, this cassette makes the argument that that they are one of those special bands that come around rarely – a band that creates songs that not only stick in your brain, but stick in your heart too.

This cassette will only be available at shows

Clean Girls American Mothers/Last House CS/Digi out January 2014

After two punishing vinyl only releases, Clean Girls solidified a good argument that they were one of the most dynamic bands of 2013 . While the goofy "noise rock" tag has been pinned on Clean Girls, there's more going on here than just crushing distortion and trying to replicate the Cherubs/The New Flesh/early Unwound templet. While tracks like "Modern Family" and "Old Crow" are completely blistering, songs such as "June Girls" and "Never Wobble In Boots" implement as many delicate moments as they do blown out in the red moments.

2014 will see the release of both of these EPs on one cassette along with bonus tracks. If you have yet to hear Clean Girls, now is the time.

When given the chance to heal in a caring and challenging environment, women can be enabled and empowered to bring forth their forgotten and lost potential. The Center asserts the right of all women to be treated with respect and dignity. We believe that in a non-judgemental and supportive environment that all women can find meaning, self-respect, hope, personal power, and love regardless of race or life experiences. In this environment we maintain that all women can evolve into more independent, self-reliant individuals who can more effectively contribute to the communities in which they live.
