Insound 10 Project Announced


insound

Online retailer Insound, has announced a collaboration with designer Mike Perry, called “Insound 10 Classic.” A collection of posters, t-shirts, and tote bags, it’s the sequel to Insound 20, which debuted last summer. Insound 20 was a collaboration with designer Jason Munn, who designed merchandise for the creme de la creme of indie rock, including Grizzly Bear, the Hold Steady, and the National, among others.

This time, however, Insound and Perry have chosen to focus on “iconic bands from indie rock’s great history,” including 10 bands that span a 20 year period, and will use the project to “create a visual narrative and revisit great older or defunct bands’ visual identity through new designs.” Many of the bands featured have had no new merchandise on the market for a decade or more. The “narrative” begins in 1977’s punk scene and winds through new wave and 80s “college rock” before arriving at the current world of indie rock. The artists are as follows:

Richard Hell & The Voidoids
The Feelies
Beat Happening
Galaxie 500
The Magnetic Fields
Sunny Day Real Estate
The Olivia Tremor Control
Apples in Stereo
Sleater-Kinney
The Promise Ring

Pre-order Insound 10 merchandise here. Products will be available in September.

feelies

On September 8, Bar/None Records will re-release two Feelies classics, Crazy Rhythms and The Good Earth. Both albums will be released with their original track listings, along with download cards featuring the entire album plus bonus tracks, since the band didn’t (and rightly so) want to spoil a good thing when it came to the CD and LP reissues.

Tracklistings are as follows:

1. The Boy With The Perpetual Nervousness

*** NOTE: Their cover of “Paint It Black” was left off the reissue as
per the band’s request. A&M added it without the band’s permission
and it was a recording from the late 80s with a different line-up than
what was the “Crazy Rhythms” line-up.
