Avalanche Album Club
After a very quiet summer for new releases (few seemed to want to compete with the World Cup) we are putting together a bumper package for our album club. Apart fron the ubiquitous Arcade Fire new album all our recent best sellers have heavily featured Scottish artists be it the self released Kid Canaveral album or the nationally distributed album by The Burns Unit. An honourable mention should also go to Trips and Falls showing Montreal has more to offer than just Arcade Fire ! The much anticipated Savings and Loan album is scheduled for the end of the year and I think it is safe to say that it will be our final pick of the year. Album club members should expect more news very soon.
