Here's another absolutely beautiful track from Pure X's forthcoming LP, which looks like it's shaping up to be something special. Crawling Up The Stairs is out next month on Acephale / Merok:

Epic new video for Gatekeeper's "Chains," created by Thunder Horse. Taken from the band's new Giza EP, out December 13 on Merok Records.

Here's another new one from SALEM's debut UK EP, Water, which was released this week on Merok. Songs like the dreamy and haunting "Whenusleep" are where those Cocteau Twins/the Knife comparisons are coming from; this one's almost pensively sweet in a bizarre way, until you listen to the lyrics...

Thanks to the nice folks at Merok for sending over these exclusive Radiohead remixes for us, created by artists on their stellar roster to celebrate their own upcoming vinyl releases. You know I'm a huge SALEM fan, so their glowing, skittering take is probably my favorite of the bunch, but I get the feeling Thom would approve of all three: mp3: ******************************* elsewhere: Thanks t
