Talbot Adams - Jack and Jesse EP

In case you've forgotten already, Talbot was the front man for The Black and Whites. With the birth of his twin boys, Talbot had to keep the noise down a bit and wrote some quieter stuff. Super sweet and frankly touching stuff from former wild man turned dad. He does it Douche Master style with four songs all under two minutes. Packed full of Talbot's patented male oooohhhs. 500 pressed. 100 on black vinyl. 400 on gray marble.

Nobunny - Brace Face 7"

Nobunny's oral fixation reaches fever pitch with "Brace Face" and "Your Mouth". Also includes an awesome cover of Moto's "It tastes just like a Milkshake." You know him, you love him, and you're just a little weirded out by him. 1000 pressed. 100 on grayish vinyl. September 8, 2010.

Gentleman Jesse - Shes a Trap 7"

Gentleman Jesse - She's a Trap 7" DMR 040
These two tracks are a couple of teasers for what we believe is going to be an ass kickin rock n roll LP. Vintage Jesse RNR with "She's a Trap". He slows it down a bit on the B side with "I Won't Say Goodbye." Look for him in your city soon as he is currently touring his ass off. 1000 pressed. 100 on pink vinyl.

King Louie's Missing Monuments - Black Rainbow 7"

King Louie’s Missing Monuments - Black Rainbow 7” (DMR 039). This record is sort of the direction Louie was going with Loose Diamonds,but without all the genre hopping. This stuff is boogie free, straight forward, hook laden rock n’ roll. He told us before we heard it that it was the catchiest stuff he’d worked on in years, and he was true to his word. The only thing more exciting than this single is the LP they’re about to start recording. Hell Yes! Edition of 1000. April 13, 2010.

The Half Rats - For the Sake of Love 7"

The Half Rats – For the Sake of Love 7” (DMR 038)
Sans objectivity, I must freely admit that I fucking love this record! TJ lives in Chicago and plays in CoCoComa. The other dudes are somewhere in Indiana. The Half Rats are sort of Doo-wopish on a poor man’s recording budget. It’s catchy as hell but not overly joyful or silly. An undeniable sixties vibe and great vocal hooks. Edition of 600. April 13, 2010.

Timmy's Organism - I'm on a Hunt 7"

Timmy’s Organism – I’m on a Hunt 7” (DMR 037)
Finally! The King of Weird Punk finds himself on Douche Master. If there were a budget rock hall of fame, Timmy Vulgar would almost have to be one of the first inductees. It’s always a thrill to see what Timmy will do next, either in a studio or perhaps walking down the street. The A side is grimy as hell and sounds a bit like early Dead Boys. B side carries a similar vibe but with a healthy dose of heroine soaked early Bad Seeds. Edition of 600. April 13, 2010.

Crusaders of Love - Never Grow Up LP

We reached across the pond again and came up, this time, with an LP from France’s Crusaders of Love. With members of Happy Burger, we figured we probably had as close to a sure thing as we were gonna get. If you’re familiar with their singles, you’ll probably notice a departure from the psychedelic in favor of garage pop on the LP. With the exception of a track on the B-side that sounds kind of like Spacemen 3, it’s a pretty jangly and happy record throughout. A perfect fit for Douche Master fans! 100 copies are on split yellow and red vinyl and comes with a download thingy. Release date is March 16, 2010. Be cool and check them out on their U.S. tour starting May 20, 2010 as well.
