Born Jayceon Terrell Taylor, two-time GRAMMY® Award- nominated multiplatinum Compton rapper, songwriter, producer, actor, and entrepreneur. The Game locked down a place in the pantheon alongside greats of both coasts by a combination of bar-for-bar bravado, provocative observation, hard-hitting hooks, and sharp introspection. And now the prolific rapper returns with his 9th album fittingly titled, Born 2 Rap. The Game’s prior album 1992 debuted #1 on Billboard’s “Top Rap Albums Chart” and tied Drake for most #1 album debuts since the chart began in 2004. Also, the album gave The Game his eighth #1 on Billboard’s “Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart” tying him for third with 2Pac and Lil Wayne. He started this impressive legacy with double- platinum 2005 full-length debut, The Documentary. It not only bowed at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and garnered GRAMMY® nods in the categories of “Best Rap Song” and “Best Rap Performance By a Duo or Group,” but it also emerged as a classic avowed by Pitchfork among the “Top 50 Albums of 2005”. The 2006 follow- up Doctor’s Advocate retained his spot at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and went platinum. Maintaining positions in the Top 10, he ignited a prolific string of blockbuster releases—L.A.X. [2008], The R.E.D. Album [2011], Jesus Piece [2012], Blood Moon: Year of the Wolf [2014], The Documentary 2 [2015], The Documentary 2.5. [2015], and 1992 [2016]. 2018 saw a trio of recent singles achieve RIAA certifications with “100” [feat. Drake] platinum and “El Chapo” with Skrillex and “All Eyez” [feat. Jeremih] both gold as his total stream tally exceeded 3 Billion across platforms. Television and film credits span everything from Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! to the upcoming All-Star Weekend directed by Academy® Award winner Jamie Foxx and co-starring Robert Downey, Jr. The Game and Benicio del Toro.

Luke Haines & Peter Buck Beat Poetry For The Survivalist is the new collaboration between Peter Buck and Luke Haines. Peter Buck was the guitarist for the biggest band in the world—R.E.M. Luke Haines was the guitarist for The Auteurs. The Auteurs were not the biggest band in the world. They were pretty good though. Luke Haines also does paintings of Lou Reed. One day, Peter Buck bought one of Luke Haines’ Lou Reed paintings (for £99.00) They had never met before but decided that the fates had brought them together and they should write some songs together and make an album. Beat Poetry For The Survivalist is that album. With songs about legendary rocket scientist and occultist Jack Parsons, The Enfield Hauntings, (of 1978) a post-apocalyptic radio station that only plays Donovan records, Bigfoot, and Pol Pot.

u n b r o k e n CREMATORY REMAINS UNBROKEN – A SOMBER ODE TO TRANSIENCE, LOVE AND PAIN RELEASE DATE: 03/06/2020 ARTIST: CREMATORY TITLE: Unbroken CATALOG #: NPR929DP / NPR929VINYL LABEL: Napalm Records COUNTRY: Germany FILE UNDER: Metal FORMAT: CD Digipak / 2LP Gatefold / Digital LIST PRICE: $ 14.98 (CD) / $23.98 (2LP) UPC: 840588130931 (CD) / 840588130948 (2LP) / 840588131006 (digital) BOX LOT: 30 (CD) / 10 (2LP) 5% Discount through 03/10/20 (Returnable, CD Only) DESCRIPTION: Welcome to the Panopticon of darkness! With Unbroken, the German pioneers of European Gothic Metal, CREMATORY, dare to perform a tightrope act in the somber void. 15 energetic tracks within brutal riffs, deep growls and tight drum grooves prove the band’s diversity — even after almost 30 years in business. The concise influences of Neue Deutsche Härte turn Unbroken into a bravura- piece in an industrial guise. The opening track of the album takes the listener into a darkly-nuanced soundscape, appeals to the strength and self-determination of the band and their fans, and allures with a certain kind of hymn character. The most contemplative CREMATORY album to date closes with the final tracks „As Darkness Calls“, a powerful first class offer, and the emotional ballad „Like The Tides”. The latter presents the fragile side of the band and symbolizes an ode of transience, love CD and pain. CREMATORY remains Unbroken!

Artist Wargirl Album Live at Clouds Hill Vinyl Album (Non-Returnable) Release 06. March 2020 UPC 4250795601739 US List Price $16.98 File Under Indie Rock Klaus Fiehe (WDR1 Live / Germany) wants to see them on as many german festival stages as possible in 2019 and 2020, Musikexpress wrote that WARGIRL is playing exactly the kind of music one would expect from The Clash, should they still make music today, with their debut album they were newcomer of the week at FM4 and Deutschlandfunk Kultur. An absolutely successful year for the Long Beach, Southern California based band. They released their first EP "Arbolita" on June 29th this year on the Hamburg based label Clouds Hill. A perfect start for WARGIRL. Six tracks between Funk, Dub, Disco, Garagerock and Afrobeat. Terrificly played and sensationally produced by Matt Wignall. WARGIRL - a band as a social - political statement. Three women, three men, each with colorful biographies, playing music that is from all over the world, yet could only have been invented in California. “We stand for Long Beach,” Wignall says. “If you walk through this town, you will meet a hundred people who could also have played in this band.” The next release for 2020 in the US is already in the making - a "Wargirl Live At Clouds Hill" live album. The perfect choice to capture the band's excellent live and sound qualities. Recorded live in the Clouds Hill Recordings recording rooms in an intimate atmosphere, directly recorded on tape by Johann Scheerer, the LP is peppered with songs from the EP and album.

VULCANO EYE IN HELL NEW STUDIO ALBUM FROM ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL BANDS FROM SOUTH AMERICA. In a time when new bands are born at every minute and meaningless albums are spit forth and back, the simple existence of an entity with the historical depth, aura and attitude of Vulcano is nothing short of amazing. The Brazilian black/thrash metal masters are now back to studio album titled “Eye In Hell”, to be released worldwide by Mighty Music on the first quarter of 2020. “Eye In Hell” was produced by Zhema Rodero and Ivan Pelliciotti in O Beco studios, in Curitiba, Brazil, between April and August 2019 and has artwork drawn by Roberto Toderico (Paganizer, Pestilence, Sodom, Tygers Of Pan Tang). “Vulcano has always been a DIY band in essence, since it’s very first album”, states Zhema. “But for the first time in our almost 39-year career, we signed a record deal with a label with name and focus on Metal. We’re very proud to be now in a roster with renamed artists - some of them created in the same era we did - like Tygers of Pan Tang and Artillery”, he continues. “This union gave us extra motivation and energy to keep going and I believe we still have a lot of albums and shows ahead”.

CONNY BLOOM GAME! SET! BLOOM! ELECTRIC BOYS FRONTMAN READY WITH A BRAND NEW SOLO ALBUM. He’s got an unmistakable and natural rock star swagger, yet at the same time he’s a salt of the earth kind of guy. That’s Conny Bloom, one of the most charismatic frontman in Swedish rock music. As a teenager Bloom, born as Ulf Conny Blomqvist in Stockholm 1964, learned his trade in bands such as Road Rats and Neon Rose but found success and fame in the late 80s as the centre of attention influential groove rock combo Electric Boys, with whom he got MTV intense play, booked regular spots in Billboard and reached #1 in the Swedish sales charts with the latest album “Ghost Ward Diaries”. Conny was also catapulted to success in the 00s, when he played guitar for the Finish super-stars Hanoi Rocks in their latest three albums. However, as a solo artist he’s doing something completely different. On his two latest albums, he’s singing in Swedish. Musically and lyrically you could put him in the tradition of, say, Pugh Rogefeldt and Stefan Sundström, storytelling folk rock with traces of psychedelia, funk and 60s pop. As a songwriter, Conny Bloom moves between seriousness and humour. He has a unique way with words, he sings the way he talks and there’s no reason to doubt him since that swagger of his means he always walk the talk.
