B They'll Fix You (They Fix Everything
(Note : 7" , silver vinyl)
A brace of full-on punky electro-pop bangers from Sissy Space Echo & The Invisible
Collaborators here. ‘The Day The Earth Caught Fire’ is a weird mixture of old-fashioned
horror movie effects and strident guitar melodies, while flip side ‘They'll Fix You
(They Fix Everything)’ channels much the same mood but is powered more by punk guitars.

OBHLP 3 BEATNIK FILMSTARS : POP SCUM/NOT THE WORST OF LP 11.2021
A lo-fi, garage, indie-rock band from Bristol that lasted most of the '90s and
again a few years later... The best way to describe them is eclectic! Nothing was
ever out of bounds. From pure out and out hooky indie-pop tunes, to weird oddities
and crazed noise blasts! John Peel was a huge supporter. (5 sessions!). Here they
have collected 45 of their favourite songs, and what a mighty fine collection it
is too! Imagine if you will a sort of 'White Album' for a band who had no money
and had to record as and when & where and how they could, and as cheaply as
possible! Co-release with Raving Pop Blast (UK).

OBHLP 5 THE YELLOW MELODIES PLEASANT DREAMS LP 12.2021
The Yellow Melodies bring us "Pleasant dreams", a tribute to their favorite Ramones
album, which was originally released on 20th July 1981, so the gorgeous band from
Murcia have made their release coincide with the 40th anniversary of that fantastic
album produced by Graham Gouldman. They have taken the songs to very different
places, changing the electric guitars and distortion for synthesizers, glockenspiels,
acoustic guitars, strings, keyboards and above all, vocal harmonies, extracting as
much pop as possible from those original punk songs.

OBHLP 6 ARREST! CHARLIE TIPPER : ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND 2LP 05.2022
Arrest! Charlie Tpper's 2022 album consists of 19 tracks recorded during lockdown.
Once again, the Tippers are magnificent, and it will be one of the best underrated
albums of 2022. A masterpiece that should be owned by all music lovers of the
alternative pop underground. It is a co-release between the Old Bad Habits label
and Breaking Down Recordings.
