ABKCO Films presents a meticulously restored and fully-realized version of this first-ever, legendary, but never released film. Shot during a quick tour of Ireland just weeks after (I Can t Get No) Satisfaction hit # 1 on the charts, The Rolling Stones Charlie is my Darling – Ireland 1965 is an intimate, behind-the-scenes diary of life on the road with the young Stones. It features the first professionally filmed concert performances of the band and documents the early frenzy of their fans and the riots the band s appearances inspired. The band is shown traveling through the Irish countryside by train; dashing from cabs to cramped, basement dressing rooms through screaming hordes of fans. Motel rooms host impromptu songwriting sessions and familiar classics are heard in their infancy as riff and lyric are united. Charlie is my Darling is the invaluable frame that captures the spark about to combust into The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World.

The Rolling Stones Charlie is my Darling – Ireland 1965 DVD incorporates the new 2012 version of the film as well as the director s cut and producer s cut, plus significant unseen additional performance and other footage shot in Dublin and Belfast in September of 1965.

The Rolling Stones Charlie is my Darling – Ireland 1965 Super Deluxe Box Set includes both DVD and Blu-ray discs that incorporate the new 2012 version of the film as well as the director s cut and producer s cut, plus significant unseen additional performance and other footage shot in Dublin and Belfast in September of 1965, bonus content, two audio CDs, one of which is the film s soundtrack album and the other a compilation of 13 live recordings the band made over the course of their 1965 UK tour. A 10 inch vinyl record of the live material is also part of the package, as well as a replica poster heralding the September 4, 1965 date they played in Belfast. And more!

THE VINYL WORD: POLICA DELIVERS AN IMPRESSIVE WORK OF ELECTRONICA ON FIRST ALBUM 'GIVE YOU THE GHOST'

PREVIEW/BUY THE VINYL HERE 

Poliça is the first project to emerge from the Gayngs stable and, rather unsurprisingly, doesn’t disappoint. Ryan Olsen delivers a lesson in production by hammering out synth driven layers, held together by the completely diametrically opposed Channy Leanagh – who imparts an altered vocal so soft and somehow natural that you wonder how the effect can be this integrated. It shouldn’t work: Olsen and Leanagh are from different musical planets. Yet it does. Take Poliça out of the Gayngs context and allow the album the space it deserves on its own merit. This record is an exploration into the synergy of reengineering technology and humanity. Let yourself be taken on the journey.–Clash

ISIS TIES UP LOOSE ENDS WITH THE RELEASE OF 'TEMPORAL' AND OTHER NEW RX CD RECOMMENDATIONS

PREVIEW/BUY THE CD HERE
PREVIEW/BUY THE VINYL HERE

Post-metal pioneers Isis, who broke up in 2010, will be sorely missed, a fact they reinforce with Temporal, a posthumous double-disc (plus DVD) full of pristine demos and other rarities. Aficionados will love picking out the differences between these early takes and the final album mixes: “Ghost Key” is instrumental here and the chirpy keyboards are missing, while “Carry” adds high-hat taps and more pronounced swells of guitar. But the album highlight is the completely new “Grey Divide,” a 16-minute thrill ride of tribal clamor and chiming atmospherics that illustrates what separated Isis from most post-metal bands—the need to push boundaries and the ability to mesmerize while doing so.–Revolver
