Martinez lifted the curtain on PORTALS earlier this week with an instantly viral TikTok video confirming the death of her notorious alter-ego �Cry Baby,� last seen considering whether to walk into the light at the beguiling conclusion of 2019�s internationally acclaimed full-length film, K-12. Today�s exclusive trailer � directed by Martinez and streaming now - now sees the appearance of a mysterious egg from which an enigmatic figure emerges.�

�Portals screams death is life is death is life is death is life. A continuous loop. A circle.� � MELANIE MARTINEZ

PORTALS marks the 27-year-old NYC-born singer-songwriter-filmmaker�s first full-length release in nearly four years following her 2 billion-streaming, RIAA Gold-certified second album, K-12, which proved a sensation upon its September 2019 release, entering the Billboard 200 at #3 � Martinez�s highest chart placement thus far � with further debuts at #1 on the Alternative album chart, and #1 on the Soundtrack album chart.

The Love Still Held Me Near was born out of unimaginable loss and the subsequent journey through the grief and heartache that followed. It�s about digging deep down into yourself and attempting to unearth hope and light in the things that can comfort you through those times. For me that has always been writing and recording music, so that�s exactly what I did. - Dallas Green / City and Colour

Formed in 1987 in Ume�, Sweden, Meshuggah have gone on to be called �one of the ten most important hard and heavy bands� by Rolling Stone and have earned the respect and admiration from fans and musicians alike.�

It is impossible to talk about experimental or avantgarde metal without mentioning this truly groundbreaking act: MESHUGGAH mix ultra-complicated rhythmic patterns with massive riffs and aggressive growls, combining Death Metal, Mathcore, Thrash and Progressive Metal to create their unique style.

The year 2023 now marks the 15th anniversary of the band�s milestone: "ObZen".

Yet another masterpiece of diversity and surprises as a whole, the album contains the band�s absolute massive hit, �Bleed� � the song that tore through the industry like a shockwave and had fans and musician peers alike completely speechless. You could say that "ObZen" is some sort of a best of album of the band�s early works combined with fresh, new songs at that moment in time � but that�s only half the truth. Compared� to some of the gloomy lava realm of subconcious terror of previous releases, "ObZen" is a big butt kick. Some parts are still slo-mo groove infernos, but others, like the opener "Combustion", are high speed-massacres like the band never did before. Pure technical ass-kicking mayhem!

The re-release of this masterpiece comes in a beautifully enhanced digipak and stunning new vinyl colors, to complete every collector�s dream.

�I felt a Funeral, in my Brain� is a rare duet in Andrew Bird�s deep discography. He and Phoebe Bridgers join forces to share a haunting reimagination of the Emily Dickinson poem, �I felt a Funeral, in my Brain.� Sparse and spectral, the arrangement pairs chilling, swelling shrieks of strings with the slight strum of guitar, as Bird and Bridgers trade verses and soar in harmony over Dickinson�s words. And paired with a B-Side rarity, "The Twistable, Turnable Man Returns", Andrew's tribute to the Shel Silverstein poem.

Did you know that miracles happen every day? We don�t alwayssee it that way. We look at the state of the world and think, �It�ll be a miracle if we make it out alive.� But miracles are what humans do. We�re Earth�s most inventive and unpredictablespecies, when we�re allowed to be. Also the most destructive. Miracle-Level is�Deerhoof�s mystical manifesto on creativity andtrust. It celebrates the infinite small wonders of existence that spontaneously present themselves, when not obstructed by our death-driven masters.

Musically,�Miracle-Level is vulnerable, brave, and brimming with spicy surprises. Deerhoof�s 19th album is also their their first tobe recorded and mixed in a recording studio. Production was entrusted to Mike Bridavsky, at No Fun Club in Winnipeg, Manitoba. This is also their first album written entirely in Satomi�s native language. Deerhoof once again speak in asecret code that only their fans understand, in which hooksabound, and genre is nonexistent.�

Underneath his mysterious metal mask,�MF DOOM hides the cachet�underground legends are made of. After his first group KMD�s sophomore�album�Black Bastards was shelved by Elektra in 1994, and his blood�brother Subroc � one half of the sibling rap duo � passed away,�surviving frontman Zev Love X slowly mutated into the supervillain MC�known as MF DOOM, and the rap world is better for it.�

The 1999 release of�Operation: Doomsday marked MF DOOM�s official�debut, reintroducing a mysterious figure who would soon become one of�underground rap�s greatest voices. Within its 19 tracks,�Operation:�Doomsday reveals the confluence of DOOM�s tragic past, personal�interests and daring creativity. His clever rhymes and remarkable�schemes stood out against the landscape, and every sound he touched ��from cartoon theme songs, to �80s soul, to rap classics and more � got�reinterpreted into something brand new and surreal.�

Decades later, MF DOOM is still celebrated for all facets of his work and�influence. In the face of tragedy, DOOM re-infiltrated the rap game on his�own terms, and crafted an instant cult classic.�Operation: Doomsday stands as a testament to the power of betting on yourself against all odds.�

Scott McMicken has always thrived on switching things up. As a founding member of Philadelphia rock mainstays Dr. Dog, McMicken and his bandmates consistently explored new sounds and new ways of writing songs across 10 gleefully eclectic albums before their 2021 hiatus. While McMicken has quietly released solo projects via cassette and vinyl on his own label Press On Records, for his latest effort, he�s done something he�s only done once before: started a band. With Shabang, out March 31, 2023, via ANTI-, comes the debut album from Scott McMicken and THE EVER-EXPANDING, and he�s made some of his freest and most adventurous music yet: a wonderfully collabora- tive collection of songs that feel lived in and true. By being present and living with these musicians (quite literally: McMicken and collaborator Michael Nau stayed in tents outside the studio) united under one com- mon goal, Shabang is full of life and endlessly candid. �I knew nothing good will come of this unless I am totally free and away from any pres- sure and pretense,� says McMicken. �Such an incredible spectrum of emotion passed through me while making this album. There was this lightness and un-self seriousness. I feel like music and life cruises at that spot: everybody was so wholeheartedly invested and open.�

The 1966 album represented a milestone for The Rolling Stones as it was the first to consist solely of Jagger/Richards original songs. The U.S. version was fleshed out with hit single classics like �Paint It Black,� an eerily insistent #1 hit graced by some of the best-ever use of sitar (played by Brian Jones).  Aftermath also strongly features the baroque charm of �Lady Jane.� 180-gram LP.

�Different Game�, is the long-awaited follow-up to their critically-acclaimed 2015 release �Still Got That Hunger�, which charted in Billboard�s Top 100 and SoundScanned over 12k units in America alone.�

The band began working on this album in 2019, shortly after their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction, but it was delayed by the Pandemic - they strongly prefer to record together and capture a live band performance in the studio (just as they had to do in the 1960�s).� They were not willing to make this album remotely.��

This album is the current-day Zombies were meant to make.� It has the vintage qualities that made them stand out in the 1960�s, yet still sounds modern, and reflects their continued development as songwriters and musicians.� 9 of the 10 tracks are written by Rod Argent, with the closer �The Sun Will Rise Again� by Colin Blunstone.� Rod produced the album (with engineer Dale Hanson), which includes a small string ensemble on 3 tracks.� Rod arranged the strings for 2 of the songs (�Different Game� and �You Could Be My Love�), with the 3rd (�I Want To Fly�) by Chris Gunning (who scored the legendary string arrangements for Colin�s 1971 debut solo album �One Year�).

In a time when the popular choice is to chase the double yellow line down the road to country radio, Boy Named Banjo thrives on its fringes. The Nashville-raised five-piece is a fusion of contemporary country, Americana and folk-rock stacked on a foundation of bluegrass. The band, which has been together in some iteration since members were in high school, includes Barton Davies (banjo), Ford Garrard (bass/standing bass), Sam McCullough (drums) Willard Logan (mandolin, acoustic/electric guitar) and William Reames (acoustic guitar/harmonica). Reames and Logan played in a middle school garage rock band together, but it wasn't until Reames met Davies in high school that Boy Named Banjo started taking shape. Garrard and McCullough joined later and together the five guys comprise the band Boy Named Banjo that we know today. Boy Named Banjo has crafted a sound that incorporates an energetic blend of country, bluegrass, alt-rock, and folk-pop telling their stories through an honest, emotional, roots-driven perspective. In April 2020, Boy Named Banjo signed a record deal with Mercury Records Nashville and released their debut EP, Circles, the following year. Boy Named Banjo spent 2022 on the road playing some of country music�s largest festivals including Dierks Bentley�s Seven Peaks and Country Jam, Kip Moore�s Fire on Wheels Tour, they made their CMA Fest debut playing at the Ascend Amphitheatre Nighttime Concert, and played a sold-out hometown show at Nashville�s Brooklyn Bowl. The band most recently released the tracks �Heart In Motion� and �Heart Attack,� and is currently prepping its next project to be released in spring of this year.

Archetypes Collide delivers massive hooks, soaked in atmosphere, with creative energy and catchiness in their DEBUT Self Titled LP on Fearless Records. Unapologetic choruses and bang-your-head riffs collide. �My Own Device,� �What If I Fall,� and �Parasite,� combine loud bombast with intimate pop. Archetypes Collide demands repeated listening, mixing everything from Linkin Park and Bring Me The Horizon to The Chainsmokers, and Stranger Things-style retro synths, into a unique musical identity.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the ESSENTIAL Iggy & The Stooges- Raw Power we�re proud to offer the pressing on gold vinyl. �Includes both the original 1973 David Bowie mix and the 1997 remix of the album.
