Friends Records 2011 is out tomorrow, a free digital and limited double-cassette release available Thanksgiving Day. Citypaper premiered the opening track, a new Celebration song called "Sure Shot" that was recorded in the band's own Night Worm Studios.

Mark at YVYNYL uncovered another preview last week, Weekends' "Basement Fuzz."

The compilation was mastered for cassette by Rob Giradi at Lord Baltimore, and the artwork for the double-tape packaging comes compliments of Will Pesta.

The track list of this annual affair boasts a hefty supply of Baltimore heroes, with an unreleased Future Islands song recorded for KEXP, a recently recorded Dan Deacon track, the debut of Jenn Wasner's (Wye Oak) Flock of Dimes, new explorations by Jason Urick, a stark reminder of the return of Oxes, a lost gem from Dustin Wong and Molly Siegel, a new-anything wonder from Matt Papich's Co La, and more.

It also sports an Arthur Russell cover by Soft Cat, fresh digs from Holy Ghost Party, a hearty dose of sugar by Will Pesta's Inflatable Mattress, a new live jam from Lands and Peoples, some exclusive hard-nosed tomfoolery from Witch Hat, another psychedelic gift from Secret Mountains, and a lot more.

^ This is quite nice. Thanks for the lead.  ;)

However, I would suggest downloading via Amazon, as they are VBRs,

http://www.amazon.com/8-Years-Cosmicleaf/dp/B005XJ5YNQ/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_t_1

rather than Last.FM. Last.FM has the crappiest quality files. Unless, of course, they did something to allow for a better quality here which I've never before seen them do. I only went there to find the download elsewhere.

Just wish that the songs were broken up into each song rather than as an entire 1 file download. I understand they probably did that to sound better for the sort of presentation they were after but it's difficult to figure out what you're listening to in order to pursue that individual artist any further.

http://sinewave.com.br/2011/12/sinewave-essentials-the-best-of-2011/
TRACK LIST
01. HUEY ? Schonburg Hell 407
02. LAVALSA ? She Floats
03. THE TAPE DISASTER ? Realidade Aumentada
04. THIS LONELY CROWD ? Spotty Powder

09. TEAM.RADIO ? French Doll
10. S.O.M.A. ? Through A Glass Darkly
11. KALOUV ? Sky Swimmer
12. SOBRE A MÁQUINA ? Anomia (bonus track)

and the info for the release translated from Portuguese to English:
Quote
2011 was the best year of Sinewave . Fired.
I do not have numbers yet, want to generate a report in early 2012. But the reasons are: a) We launched twelve works of exceptional quality. We have never received so much resonance - blogs, Brazilians and gringos sites, newspapers, social networks, all disks have affected in some way. And the most fun this December is to follow the Best of the Year lists - many of them highlighting works released by the label b) produce four editions of Sinewave Festival in cities such as Curitiba, Porto Alegre and Rio de Janeiro, with bands of the casting and invited . All editions promised making the noise, and c) Everything that was derived from these two items above.
All this in music betting "wrong." Ships paraphrase Jair, who on the last day 15/dez gave a speech in honor of Herod, a band that opened his show: "They are guys who believe in what they do, even doing a job with no commercial appeal." Extend it to all the bands that started their work with us this year, all of which are part of our history, and all orbiting around the seal and not part - or at least not yet.
So this Sinewave Essentials - The Best of 2011 . A like the most, either through a click or feel that increasingly rare "but how come I never heard that before?", and every effort will be worth it. Work here because each has something besides the default - is punch, is a different idea, or more elaborate, genius is something unreasonable, something that is confusing to follow the aesthetic of "because".
HUEY , LAVALSA , DISASTER THE TAPE , THIS LONELY CROWD , ALMA MATER , THE MACHINE ON , Solemn UPPSALA , NOISE / MM , TEAM.RADIO , SUM , KALOUV . Eleven bands from all parts of Brazil, ranging from metal to post-rock experimental indie loud the spleen with violins, the shoegaze pop appeal with the post-industrial.
All this is to pave the next year - more albums, more gigs, more festivals, more noise than in 2011. Because 2012 will be the best year of Sinewave. Fired.
