Originally released in 1979, Low Budget marked a pivotal late career high point for The Kinks with a tougher, arena-ready sound. It became one of the band’s strongest U.S. releases and remains a defining album of their late 70s period.
This 2026 edition has been newly remastered from the original production sources, delivering improved clarity, balance, and dynamic range while preserving the character of the original mix. Tracks including “(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman,” “Catch Me Now I’m Falling,” and the title track benefit from a more detailed and focused presentation.
Originally released in 1981, Give the People What They Want continued The Kinks’ early 80s run with a direct, guitar-driven sound and pointed, contemporary themes.

Built around the concise proverb “Those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones”, In a Glass House stands as one of Gentle Giant’s most daring artistic statements. The saying warns against hypocrisy and hasty judgment, and in many ways, it mirrors the band’s own refusal to compromise or conform. Gentle Giant was the quintessential under‑the‑radar progressive rock band, fearlessly blending hard rock, medieval motifs, odd time signatures, classical structures, and sudden left‑turns that kept listeners constantly on edge.
By the time they released their fourth studio album, Octopus, in 1972, internal pressures were mounting. Phil Shulman left the band the following year, worn down by touring demands and strained family dynamics.
The Nimrods soundtrack features 22 of your favorite career-spanning Green Day songs plus soundtrack exclusives “I’m Never Gonna R.I.P” and four unreleased live songs the band recorded at the Palladium in Los Angeles featured in the movie. Additionally, the soundtrack has songs from The Paradox, Ultra Q and Mckenna Grace plus four tracks from Analog Dogs, the fictitious band “Nimrods” centers around.
The Nimrods film will hit theaters on August 14. Developed by writer/director Lee Kirk with Green Day and produced by Tim Perell, Nimrods is a coming-of-age story about three friends (Mason Thames, Kylr Coffman and Ryan Foust) who journey to Los Angeles, mistakenly believing that their band is opening for Green Day on New Year’s Eve.
…’12 Golden Country Greats’, which includes Ween classics “Piss Up a Rope,” “I’m Holding You,” and “Pretty Girl,” has been remastered from the original tapes and comes with more than 20 unreleased demos and outtakes from the Nashville sessions. Among them are two songs cut from the original album, “I’ve Got No Darkside” and Jerry Garcia tribute “So Long, Jerry.”
The main problem with 12 Golden Country Greats is that it’s Ween’s first album to concentrate on a single music genre and such concentration lends the impression that they consider themselves above the genre. But that isn’t entirely the case. Ween recorded 12 Golden Country Greats in Nashville with numerous legendary musicians, including the Jordanaires, Buddy Spicher,…

Ambient Americana Volume 2 brings together major icons of the ambient and experimental folk scenes, including legendary producer Daniel Lanois, ambient guitar pioneer William Tyler, and standard-bearers of the current cosmic Americana revival like Hayden Pedigo and North Americans.
“Our May 2021 issue came with a special free CD – the then-latest instalment in our Sounds of the New West series. Titled Ambient Americana: A Road Trip Across Psychic State Lines, it brought together a group of artists who were mixing the traditions of country and folk with the mind-expanding sounds of ambient and kosmische music.
…a mere five years on, we’re delighted to bring you Volume 2, which comes free with Uncut’s August 2026 issue.”
The Lovin’ Spoonful were one of the most popular American bands of the 1960s; they were also one of the most confounding. They were a thoroughly modern band capable of transcendent pop moments like “Do You Believe in Magic,” beautiful ballads like “Didn’t Want to Have to Do it,” hot rockers like “Summer in the City,” and songs like “Rain on the Roof” that niftily anticipated country-rock, but they also padded out their albums with old-timey jug band and blues songs that made them seem like fogeys before their time. This split made them a brilliant singles band, while their albums were more hit and miss.
The whole unruly mess is available for view in one sprawling package on Strawberry Records’ complete retrospective What a Day for…
To celebrate 50 years since the formation of Rainbow and the release of the debut album Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow, Demon Music present a comprehensive box set covering the years 1975-1976.
As well as including the seminal first two studio album, the box set includes a trilogy of live albums from Rainbow’s debut world tour and documenting the band’s first shows in Europe with shows from Cologne, Dusseldorf and Nurnberg. The final disc of this 9 disc set features a multitude of rare mixes, edits and studio rehearsal performances all newly mastered by Andy Pearce & Matt Wortham.

“Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends.” Famously uttered by bassist-guitarist Greg Lake, those words encapsulate the theatricality, thrills, breadth, and fascination surrounding Brain Salad Surgery — Emerson, Lake & Palmer’s fourth studio album. Originally released in late 1973, it finds the trio taking front-to-back control of its situation and incorporating several studio firsts. The platinum-certified effort also stands as one of the greatest prog-rock feats in history. Its cohesive blend of musicianship, songwriting, and production set a standard that, decades later, remains revered amid fans and critics alike.
Mastered at Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab’s California studio, the reissue label’s numbered-edition hybrid SACD of Brain Salad Surgery presents…
Few archival releases feel as genuinely worthwhile as this newly expanded edition of The Autumn Stone. Originally assembled and released by Immediate Records in 1969 without the band’s involvement, the compilation has long occupied an unusual place in the Small Faces catalogue. While it introduced listeners to some of the group’s finest work, it never truly reflected how the band wanted its music to be presented. More than five decades later, that finally changes.
Curated by drummer Kenney Jones to mark the 60th anniversary of Immediate Records, the 2025 deluxe edition transforms The Autumn Stone from a posthumous compilation into a thoughtfully restored retrospective. Rather than simply remastering the original album…
Amigos has been beloved for decades by both long-time and recent Santana admirers, with multiple generations of fans drawn in by the record’s contagious blend of R&B, Latin, rock, and funk elements. As well as its immense accessibility. Coming off a series of albums that heavily leaned into jazz fusion, the band returns to the more dynamic and concise approaches of its earlier works without losing the sense of adventurousness, craftsmanship, and virtuosity that turned it into a juggernaut embraced by both the mainstream and experimentally minded communities.
The enhanced aural perspectives extend not only to Carlos Santana’s intoxicating fills and solos, but to the rich tapestry of the rhythmic, melodic, and vocal elements that help Amigos…
Following a hiatus of nearly three years, Tramp Records return to their acclaimed Can You Feel It series with a fifth edition, resuming their treasure hunt through the oft-overlooked depths of the late 1970s disco and modern soul landscape.
As ever, the focus falls on long-lost private-press obscurities, unreleased recordings and neglected dancefloor cuts, with Bill Deal & The Rhondels sharing space with Ryjel’s ‘Heart’s On Fire’, Avatar’s ‘Been Thinkin’ About You’ and King Perkoff’s ‘When You Live In Marin’. Including bonus 7″ of a very rare disco single!
From extremely rare tracks to easily accessible ones and even unreleased material-this release has everything to make a collector’s heart race. Once again, these songs will get you…
Foreigner released its new live album, In the Eye of the Storm, via Green Hill/Sun Records/Virgin Records. The album serves as the official soundtrack to the band’s concert film, recorded September 6 and 7, 2025 at Ellis Island and the Dumbo House in Brooklyn, and features original members Lou Gramm and Al Greenwood alongside former vocalist Kelly Hansen and current lead singer Luis Maldonado.
A video for ‘I Want to Know What Love Is,’ featuring performances from Gramm, Greenwood, and Hansen, was also released alongside the album.
The project marks part of Foreigner’s 50th anniversary, with a feature film produced by Vertigo Live Productions set to arrive in theaters worldwide in fall 2026.
Remastered at Abbey Road, Ask Me Tomorrow (1995), Out of Tune (1998), Excuses for Travellers (2000), Spoon and Rafter (2003), and Puzzles Like You (2006) are available on standard black LP and CD, as well as in a 4AD exclusive slipcase featuring all five albums on clear vinyl, complete with an 8×10″ print. Ask Me Tomorrow features newly updated artwork with photographs by Colin Gray, while all of the other albums retain their original artwork.
Born from the ashes of Slowdive in 1995 by former members Neil Halstead and Rachel Goswell, and newly acquired drummer Ian McCutcheon, Mojave 3 began by recording six sparse, acoustic, vocally-driven tracks that stripped away the swirling guitar distortion that had once cloaked…
All India Radio’s sixth studio album and the first to be released on vinyl back in 2010. The new vinyl and digital version features gorgeous new artwork from Ryan T Hancock. This repress uses the original 2010 vinyl master by Tony Mantz which was flawless.
The Silent Surf features the voice of Professor Don Gurnett, famous for his NASA ‘space sounds’ (also used by the Kronos Quartet on their famous Sun Ring recordings) and a cameo (on ‘The Bomb’) by The Church’s Steve Kilbey (Under The Milky Way). “Since the turn of the 21st century, All India Radio has mashed the ambient-hop signatures of DJ Shadow, Tortoise and Thievery Corporation with the instantly recognizable guitar soundtracking of Ennio Morricone and Angelo Badalamenti.
A founder of the jazz rock group Isotope, Gary Boyle embarked on a solo career in 1977 and recorded his debut album ‘The Dancer’ later that year. The recording sessions saw Boyle joined by such celebrated alumni as Robin Lumley, Rod Argent, Dave MacRae, Morris Pert and Simon Phillips. The resulting album was first released on Gull Records in 1978 and is now regarded as a classic in the jazz rock genre.
Boyle’s follow-up album was ‘Electric Glide’ and saw him joined by special guest guitarist Gary Moore (then with Colosseum II), along with contributions from Robert Awhai, Simon Phillips, John Giblin and Pete Jacobsen. ‘Electric Glide’ was met with acclaim and rightfully placed Gary Boyle among the great jazz rock players.
