Print: $20.00 Anna has no recollection of who or where she is, but one thing is certain: the world is coming to an end. Her only friend is Jacqueline, an angel in human form who was once guitarist for one of the world's greatest rock bands. Together, they travel across the dying landscape, and as Jacqueline gathers her surviving bandmates, Anna learns the truth about the four angels called Rosewater.
Rosewater is a unique photo-collage graphic novel, written and created by collage artist Alexei Gural. It is a somber and surreal tale of disillusionment and hope, of fallen angels and rock n' roll, with a visual style quite unlike any other comic.

Disc: $6.00 It Lives! was a punk/power-pop trio based in Athens, Georgia back in 2003. Though the band only ever played a few shows, they left behind one scorching and very entertaining album. The songs are mostly high-paced, riff-heavy guitar rockers, with lyrics about unrequited love, screwing-up royally, and having only two days to live, among other things. Featuring Alexei Gural on guitar and main vocals, Ryan Bertram on bass and backing vocals, and Johnny Watson on drums. Produced by Alexei Gural and recorded by Jason Nesmith at Bel Aire Studios in Athens, Georgia.

Disc: $6.00 Some musicians who record at home strive to create works that are much more than just home-grown recordings. This album is a perfect example of that, with seven solid tracks (and a new secret eighth track) all performed by one musician. Best described as acoustic pop, the songs display a variety of styles and instrumentation, while adhering to a common central theme of disillusionment and the perpetual search for hope.

Disc: $6.00 The thirteen tracks on this electronica album were all constructed using loops and samples taken mostly from the recordings of bands based in Athens, Georgia, where this album was assembled. Fablefactory, Carrie Nations, Madeline Adams, Casper and the Cookies, the Noisettes, and many others make an appearance here, though the end effect is always far from the original source. Scavenger Noir is both electronica and musique concrete, sometimes quirky, sometimes intense, but always interesting.

Disc: $6.00 As an album, Pongoscope is quite an enigma. The tracks are mainly lush, heavy audio collages that perpetually morph into newer and newer soundscapes, all very intense but strangely hypnotic. Altogether, the album takes you on a unique aural journey, and not one strictly for hardcore fans of ambient music.
