In the early and mid-70s an unusual creative explosion took place in Barcelona, which meant the first manifestation of avant-garde experimental rock known in Spanish territory. Starting from free jazz, through punk and industrial music, and reaching electronics, several generations of snipers would take charge of consolidating a tradition that, consolidated in the 80s, still survives today. Born in the underground and taking over from Barcelona's progressive rock from 1969-73, it was also the first known independent rock manifestation at the national level, as evidenced by the fact that Macromassa self-released their first album in 1978 and the appearance of other labels independents in Barcelona prior to the Movida madrileña. Too and too soon, all these ruptures took their toll on a movement that was not such and that had more repercussion in France or the United States than in Spain. The risky and minority of their proposals, the hermetic and self-sufficient character of some bands that did not pursue popular recognition, the institutional disinterest and the disaffection of a public that was allowed to be carried away by the escapist sounds of the Transition and the layetano-salsa monopoly of Zeleste, condemned to marginalization that period that continues to be ignored by the official chronicles despite being the most creative and transgressive of events in the recent cultural heritage of the city of Barcelona. La Ciudad Secreta, a choral portrait in which many of its protagonists are interviewed, drawing in unison an analysis of the political and social degradation of Barcelona in the period between the pre-Transition and the Olympics, aims to restore identity and entity to a stimulating stage that musically can be compared to phenomena such as Krautrock in Germany, Canterbury in England and the French avant rock scene, generating its own circuit, closely linked to the culture of fanzines, free radios and cassettes. Immersing yourself in the pages and sounds of this adventure, the reader will experience the same emotion.

Munster Records is proud to present this collection of Jonathan Richman's most recent body of songs, which have not been so easy to find on CD or LP up until now, especially for audiences outside the US. Written in the 21st century, recorded in the fourth decade of his unique music career, what we have here is a rare case of a musician who gets richer, more colourful and stronger with time, yet never forgetting his original flavour. Just like a good wine.

Manu Gastado releases his first solo album, a blissful melodic wandering through a '60s-inspired psych haze. As part of Los Tupper, one of Spain's best-kept secrets, he has spent the last decades indebted to the Jagger/Richards mould, but, on Kosmik Street he has set his Stones obsession to one side to delve further into that classic late-'60s British sound. It's like Revolver spinning in the Small Faces dressing room, a wonderful disimilation and modern update of one of the most mind-bending times in music history. (Nathan Whittle- Ruta66 Magazine)

21 bands paying tribute to the late Nikki Sudden. Mastered by John Rivers, the engineer involved in many Nikki Sudden recordings, and artwork done by Jef Aerosol. Deluxe digipack!!

Once upon a time there was a prince who lived in a velvet castle. He was a Rock&Roll outlaw and sometimes he crossed the sea to play with a band of gypsies. In this second album together, ''Cinderella's shoes'', you're going to find the same ingredientes than in their previous, but a little bit older & wiser: romantic tales, dirty fairy legends, bastardian nouvelle and kinky voudeville. If I were you, I wouldn't miss the ball. There is free bar, music never stops and the stepsisters are available after midnight. We are sure, these shoes are made for you.

Sunthunder Records is proud to announce the release of "Tambourine girl", his last work. A 12 tracks digipack compilating some rarities, demos and outtakes by the Bounty Hunters and his solo career with The Tenderhooks, collected by Dave himself. Don't miss your chance to get this piece of history!

Frame is the second coming of Jon Ulecia and his Cantina Bizarro. A new demonstration of class and good taste by this talented boys. Following the footsteps of their fantastic debut album "Last Night Dream"(Sunthunder#004), in "Frame" Jon goes further, allowing the songs grow by themselves. Through the album we can find echoes of Tav Falco, Mink DeVille, Beasts of Bourbon or even Ray Davies in the amazing opening song "Anything goes". From the dead calm of "Quiet bird" to the electric storm of "Mind exile", passing for the reverberating border sounds of "Second coming". See you in the Cantina!

Wild Garage from Mexico!!!

Reissue of the second album by Lyres from 1986. Sound, attitude and a way of making music that you don't see around too often. Amazing track after amazing track make this record a brilliant example of a band at the top of their game.

There was a fledgling, vibrant music scene for young fans in Spain before The Beatles landed in Madrid and sent everybody wild. "Pippermint Twist" takes a look at a hardly documented period where Spanish artists and combos revelled in rock & roll, twist, doo wop, surf and every dance craze which found fame for a few weeks.

''I received a disc in my mailbox. Gil Rose has struck again, this voice, this way of singing so singular, these stubborn enchanting arrangements. Gil Rose picked us, he do it his own way, without artifice, with elegance, with surrealism (Swiss or Belgian or whatever you want), insolence and emotion : an imaginary line drawn somewhere between CbGB's-Max's, Colette Magny, the nonsense, the Great Game and the ''congés payés'', the "Nationale 7'' from our childhood, waste grounds and green meadows. Gil Rose is that Rimbaud layabout, that glam Jacques Bertin on LSD of Jacobites obedience, the young modern Germain Nouveau of fifty years old. Thank you Gil for this wonderful and exhilarating surprise in my mailbox. Thank you to delight us. Oh! ''Monsieur Meteo'' ! These wonderful clouds. I received a disc in my mailbox, a Rose bouquet would have made me less effect '' Merle Leonce Bone, Feb 2016.

On this (his 6th) album, Mr. Skidmore presents 11 new songs of that stylish blend of rock, blues, garage & psychedelia with his distinctive vocals on top, featuring some cover songs of Beefheart, The Who and Buck Naked and the Bare Bottom Boys, too!!
Joey had the privilege to get the late & missed Nikki Sudden collaborating on this record, playing, co-singing and producing some of the tracks. Eric Ambel, from Del Lords, also plays guitar, among other set of valuable musicians.

Their best record, released in 2005!

Wölfhead are back with an excellent new Heavy Metal album entitled "Blood Full Moon".

It's been a while since Wölfhead released their acclaimed self-titled album in 2011 by the prestigious record label Doomentia Records.

You know, delayed it until now.

After almost five years in the making, Munster is very proud to present the latest recordings by Danny & The Nightmares, described by Daniel Johnston as his "best album ever.

The brief existence (1969-1970) of this band led by Pajarito Zaguri, a key figure in the birth and development of Argentine rock, was enough to produce a fantastic LP containing garage, beat and psychedelia. Legally reissued for the first time, this album is a brilliant portrait of late 1960s Buenos Aires.

Imagine Elvis, Fred Sonic Smith, Keith Moon, Phil Lynott and Carl Perkins jamming in hell's kitchen" sez the wild press release from this very interesting Spanish band. Big words, but Ultracuerpos are very hard to describe musically as you probably guessed. Vintage Detroit hardrock meets the 60s r&b sound of Stax Records would be my take on'em, it's incredibly infectious soulful rock'n'roll played with a lotta heart. Alvaro Dorda is probably the best Spanish r'n'r singer I've ever heard, and the rest of the band back him up perfectly with their superior musical abilities. These guys sure aint youngsters and must've been in tons of bands before Ultracuerpos. Some of their songs reminded me of Lincoln Street Exit for some strange reason. .
