The Loneliest Punk

LOTERIA is a unique compilation album for 2022, featuring 55 artists, assigned at random into 14 brand new bands, tasked with producing original music from their home studios while in lockdown. Mike Watt, Amber Webber (Lightning Dust), Geza X, Gitane Demone (Christian Death), Victor Krummenacher (Camper Van Beethoven), Quazar (Quazar and the Bamboozled) and many others joined forces to combat the ennui of isolation and keep collaborative music alive, at a time when gathering in person wasn't possible. This collection splits 14 original songs over 2 LPs, and every card's a winner. Vinyl purchase includes digital download, emailed to customers on release day.

Larry Mullins (aka Toby Dammit) and Mike Watt are back with another tribute to The Stooges, this time a year later with “1970". (Mullins and Watt previously played together in the most recent iteration of The Stooges.) This 7” vinyl release features their unique take on the classic “1970”, divided into two parts and available exclusively for RSD Black Friday, and is limited to 1,000 copies worldwide. Half of the pressing comes on color vinyl, with the other half on standard black vinyl. The two editions will be randomly mixed and shipped, so you’re in for a surprise.

A2 1970 (Part 2)

Mike Watt is one of the best bassists around, with a resume that includes the Minutemen, fIREHOSE, and the Stooges, among many others. Raymond Pettibon is an award winning visual artist and one of the most prominent cover artists around. Together they are Sock-Tight, a band from the past for the future. Two friends with different working and communication patterns, united in the belief that culture and art are meant to be a social act and in the hands of all people. Sock-Tight is a psychedelic-inspired no-wave-mania which brings together the lyrical mantra of Raymond Pettibon, the bass of Mike Watt, the saxophone vision of the early Stooges as well as a lot more dark alley thoughts and sounds from America. Second Wind is a limited edition 7” made exclusively for Record Store Day 2018. The recordings feature Dirk Vandenberg on drums, and a different sax player for each track; Alex Zhang Hungtai, Vince Meghrouni, and Ulises Bella. The gatefold jacket features artwork from Raymon Pettibon.
