Carducci Bros is the collaborative release from brothers Mark and Joe Carducci, Mike Watt, and Jerry Trebotic. The project was spurred into action when Watt heard a decades-old record from Mark’s high school rock band Midknight. The songs are accented with spoken word lyrics from Joe, with some penned by SST Records’ house producer/engineer Spot, who passed during the record’s creation. Featuring a deft rhythm section and Mark Carducci’s reverb drenched guitar, the project showcases the unique creative vision that has made the SST scene such a vital and enduring force for decades.

The artwork features a painting by the late Joseph F. Carducci, Mark and Joe's uncle whose paintings also grace the covers of Joe's books Life Against Dementia, and Rock and the Pop Narcotic

Badillac is the 2014 album from Los Angeles rock band Together Pangea. Their blend of hooky bubblegum pop and primitive punk attitude made the trio standouts among the garage rock boom of the 2010’s. The record saw the band taking a leap both commercially and sonically, while still maintaining plenty of their bracing intensity. It’s home to some of their biggest songs to this day (“Sick Shit,” “River,” the album’s title track) and set them up to work with The Replacements’ Tommy Stinson on their follow-up EP.

Initially released on Capitol imprint Harvest Records, Org Music is reissuing a deluxe version of the album for its 10th anniversary, complete with a bonus disc of demos and unreleased rarities. Mastered by Dave Gardner and pressed on midnight oil and bone mix color vinyl at Furnace Record Pressing. Officially in stores August 16, 2024.
