ICHI-BONS - Little Lil b/w The Witch 45
Very pleased to announce our second single from the finest group playing in Toronto today, the mighty Ichi-Bons. Tearing it up on two potent slabs of their patented Desperate Rock'n'Roll, Ichi-Bons are joined here by sax savage Spencer Evoy for maximum blaze. Topside's a delicious, delirious take on an obscure '59 rocker, while anybody with an ear for this music will recognise the flip's all-time Sonics scorcher.
One-time only pressing of 400. (UGLY POP UP085)

MAMORU BANZAI - Strollin' at Dawn EP
Japanese guitarist Mamoru Banzai has been wowing audiences for years now as a member of the Ichi-Bons, whose high-energy garage/rockabilly bop has taken them around the world and made for an impressive run of essential 45s. There's another, equally impressive, side to Banzai, though, and that's what is showcased here on his debut solo record. Drawing on rock'n'roll, blues, rockabilly, and western soundtracks, these three instrumentals, all written for films, are at once twangy, soulful, and cinematic, landing somewhere between Ennio Morricone and Link Wray. Limited pressing of 200 in pocket sleeve. (UGLY POP UP088)
