Temporary Residence LimitedNEWS: JULY 2010I've taken off everything I can and still it's miserably hot. Would peeling my flesh off help, do you think?
PRE-ORDER THE NEW ALBUM BY THE BOOKS RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW!!!"Eagerly anticipated" doesn't do this one justice. Five years in the making, 'The Way Out' is the Books' fourth (and finest, in our humble opinion) album, and their first for Temporary Residence Ltd. One listen and you'll understand where those five years went. Creatively complex beyond description, this is a kind of genuine innovation mixed with unexpected accessibility that is truly unlike anything else we've ever heard (except maybe, you know, other albums by the Books). The CD version includes a large 10x20-inch full-color foldout poster, complete with multiple matte and gloss varnishes and metallic silver foil stamping. The super-deluxe 2xLP has the varnishes and foil stamping, PLUS two full-size, full-color sticker sheets featuring 36 die-cut stickers to design and decorate your own unique album cover! How cool is that?! Super cool. As if that weren't enough, the first 500 copies will receive limited edition multi-colored rainbow splatter vinyl. It's like every flavor of ice cream exploded in your hands, without the messy cleanup. This pre-order will ship on or around July 10.
BRAND NEW THREE MILE PILOT ALBUM COMING!!!Pigs flew, Hell froze over, and Three Mile Pilot delivered us their first new album in 13 YEARS!! It's true, we've heard it, it's incredible. We'll begin pre-orders for this August 1, including limited edition colored vinyl for those of you with quick trigger fingers, so get ready!! (Still kinda can't believe this is happening.)
KENSETH THIBIDEAU DEBUT ALBUM AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER!!For the past dozen years we have had the esteemed privilege of working with almost every band that our friend Kenseth Thibideau has been a part of, including Tarentel, Rumah Sakit, Howard Hello, Sleeping People, Pinback and Three Mile Pilot. Now he's done gone solo, and we're proud to say his first album, 'Repetition', is one of his finest hours ever. Subtly crafted and beautifully executed, its subtle rewards are too numerous to mention, and the replay value is extraordinarily high. Check out the free MP3 we've posted for the opening track, "Black Hole." This pre-order will ship on or around July 10.
MAJEURE SUPER-LIMITED REMIX ALBUM AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER!!Last fall we released the stunning debut album from Majeure, aka A.E. Paterra of prog-rock pastronauts Zombi. 'Timespan' was/is a brilliant, moody slice of sci-fi dance exploration. We're almost sold out of that now, so what better time to unleash a track-for-track remix album! Featuring expansive remixes and reinterpretations by Jesu, Steve Moore (Zombi) and acclaimed French producer Black Strobe, 'Timespan Remixes' is the perfect companion to its original counterpart. Though featuring only three tracks, the album easily stretches past the half-hour mark, defining the oft-overused term "EPIC." This is strictly limited to 500 copies, all black vinyl. This pre-order will ship on or around July 10.
SCORCHING NEW COLISEUM ALBUM OUT NOW!!!The third and by far most badass Coliseum album is finally available for pre-order! 'House With A Curse' is their most dynamic and devastating album yet, and we're not just saying that because we released it (though that fact is undeniable). The CD is packaged in a super sinister, super shiny Digipak with a 12-page booklet featuring lyrics and images filled with pure dread. The deluxe LP is packaged in an eye-popping embossed jacket with matte and clear gloss varnishes throughout. It'll make your fingers happy. The deluxe vinyl version is limited to the first pressing of 2,000 copies.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNER OF THE COLISEUM TEST PRESSING!!!The lucky recipient of the Coliseum Test Pressing Contest is Mr. Dominik Bohr from Germany. Congrats to him for winning this extremely rare and delightful artifact, and thank you to everyone who mail ordered from us last month and thus entered into this contest. More contests to come in the future!
EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY ANNOUNCE TINY TOUR!!!Explosions In The Sky have been very quiet this year, having played exactly zero shows this year. As such, the fact that the band are playing THREE concerts in the near future is cause for celebration. On their way up to ATP NY the band will stop in Louisville, KY (for their first time ever), and Baltimore, MD. Though probably not intentional, this 3-date mini-tour manages to cover 3 of the 4 cities that Temporary Residence has called home throughout our 15-year history. Coincidence? Yeah, probably.
PINBACK ON TOUR!!!Taking a break from working on their forthcoming Temporary Residence debut, the core duo of Armistead B. Smith IV and Rob Crow will embark on a brief west coast tour this summer, dubbed "Pinback Presents: The Rob and Zach Show." This will be the first time the group have ever toured as a duo, and the venues are smaller and more intimate than you're probably used to, so come join them for a special and undoubtedly fun evening. They'll also be debuting a few new tunes!
MONO LIVE ORCHESTRA ALBUM AND DVD OUT NOW!!!The moment has finally come! The infamous once-in-a-lifetime NYC concerts featuring MONO backed by a 24-piece orchestra were gloriously captured on both audio and video for all to enjoy. Now you can either relive that amazing weekend, or stop kicking yourself for missing it. Recorded and mixed by Matt Bayles (Mastodon, ISIS), the album sounds absolutely magical. The accompanying DVD features the entire 90-minute concert from start to finish. It really is a sight to behold. This is available as a CD+DVD package, as well as a limited edition super-deluxe 3xLP+DVD gatefold vinyl package.
NEW ELUVIUM ALBUM OUT NOW!!!After three long years holed up in either a tour van or a home studio, Eluvium returns with the follow-up to the widely-acclaimed 'Copia'. The new album, titled 'Similes,' is the first to feature vocals and percussion, and is pretty much one of the best albums we've ever released, if we believe what a bunch of people are telling us (which we do).
TWITTER DEE TWITTER DUMB!!!As some of you already know, us TRL folks joined the alternate universe that is Twitter some time ago. We never made a formal announcement or anything, so here is that announcement. In addition to our three label accounts - @TempResLtd, @TRL_Mailorder, @TRL_Retail - you can also follow Jeremy along his unenviable journey through 1000 demos reviewed in 2010. That's right, he will painstakingly (and in some cases just plain painfully) review 1000 demos received throughout the year. Follow him as he descends into madness 140 characters at a time @1000TimesNo. And yes, this project is fully inspired by our friend Chris @1000TimesYes. His is admittedly more respectable and probably less depressing than Jeremy's will be.
DEBUT ALBUM BY SYSTEMS OFFICER AVAILABLE NOW!!!Five long years since the all-too-brief debut EP, Armistead Burwell Smith IV (he of Pinback and Three Mile Pilot infamy) finally unveils his long-awaited debut full-length of complex, gorgeous pop. And don't forget to catch Pinback on tour this month before they retreat to the studio to work on their long-awaited new album!
THE BLACK HEART PROCESSION OUT NOW!!!After three long, lonely years, The Black Heart Procession return with a new album ('Six') on a new label (us!) and a whole new slew of formats from which to choose your method of enjoyment. This is easily their best album in at least a decade, so we felt it appropriate to treat its release appropriately exquisite. The super-deluxe CD version comes packaged in a jaw-dropping full-color hardbound 28-page linen-cover book. The deluxe vinyl 2xLP features a striking laser etching on the fourth side (and of course there is limited edition colored vinyl while supplies last). And then there's the total next levelness that is the limited edition custom-made black heart-shaped USB flash drive pendant necklace. Housed in an engraved heart-shaped metal tin, this piece is over-the-top in the best way possible. So which will it be? There is no wrong choice! You could even choose them all if you're so inclined!
DAMAGED GOODS SALE!!!Every few months we collect all of the goods that have been returned to us from our distributor, declared as "damaged," and we sell them to you at less than half the price. The "damage" refers to the packaging, usually a bent corner, torn spine or cracked case. In some cases they're simply unwrapped. The records are otherwise flawless and unplayed. Stores won't take them, but we thought you might want them. They are $5 EACH, and MUST be purchased with another regularly priced mail order item. In other words, you can't purchase only damaged records. Just Paypal us the additional $5 for each record you want, and we'll throw them in your other order. Here's what we've got, all in limited quantities:
TRR7374
MONO
One Step More / NY Soundtracks 2xLP
TRAVELS IN CONSTANTS!!!Alright, listen up, you unbelievably patient people! The next (and final) set of Travels In Constants discs will ship out...some time this year (maybe?). We wish we could give you an exact date on the rest, but the artists involved still have to finish their recordings. It will be well worth the wait, or at least it will be the end of your wait. We hope you've enjoyed being as patient and frustrated but ultimately satisfied as we have! Thanks for the good times (and sorry for the bad).
