CARD10 FOSSILS major tenth 10 inch lathe

Cardinal Records is proud to present

CARD10 FOSSILS ‘major tenth’ 10-inch lathe + zine

We are very happy to bring you this one-of-a-kind release.

Fossils began in 2005 under the leadership of David Payne.  A revolving team of improvisers comprised the goof troop during the earliest stages.  In 2008, Daniel Farr entered the equation and quickly become a key player. By the end of 2010, Farr and Payne were the two central characters of the band, creating a powerful duo of dark weird experimental sound forever forging into the beyond.

‘major tenth’ is an aquatic adventure that bubbles burns to the surface and churns without purpose.  Hiss and piss springs acrobat strings. Summoned dust devils come swirling on slow cardboard horses chasing UFO tones.

GET IT AND GET WET!

Each copy has an original black ink-work by Payne pasted to the cover.

Each copy also includes a multi-paged folded/stapled black and white zine that features reproductions of all 10 cover images used for the release.

Lathes cut by Graham Baldwin at 2208

CARD8 FOSSILS "korjev/wet industry"

Cardinal Records is proud to present

CARD8 FOSSILS ‘Korjev / Wet Industry’ 7-inch lathe

Fossils were Daniel Farr, Graham Lambkin and David Payne.

2012 duo recordings of Farr and Payne were transferred to Lambkin for special treatment.

Lambkin’s touch is understated yet elevates Fossils to new heights.

Side A ‘Korjev’ brings you to the playground, combining electronic and organic impressions.

Side B ‘Wet Industry’ is a bus ride to the rodeo, vibrating subtle itch on the spine.

review and news

Continuing to blast 2013 there have been some nice words written by Frans de Waard about CARD7

FOSSILS - PATIENCE (7" lathe cut + CDR by Cardinal Records)
Even when the esthetic side of Fossils is perhaps a bit too lo-fi for me, after all their recent releases its easy (easier) to spot a trend among them. Their music is also something that slowly dawns upon me as something quite nice. With each new release I seem to be enjoying it more and more. Here we have two items in one package, and perhaps also released as one thing? The lathe cut vinyl comes in an edition of just twenty-five copies and contains a live recording of Fossils as a trio (opposed to the usual duo material) in Albany, New York and features guitar, percussion and saxophone. All of these are examined and inspected for their various sonorous qualities of scraping and hitting, dragging them over the floors, and the saxophone blowing a mild free jazz tune. Extreme stuff, but not so much for the noise side of these things, or the somewhat very direct recording, up close to the instruments, but the controlled nature of the playing is what makes this quite good. There is no sudden outburst of violence or aggression, but a carefully interaction between three free spirited musicians. Excellent stuff.

We now only have 1 copy in stock.

CARD8 should also see light very soon. It's a collaborative effort between Fossils duo Farr/Payne & Graham Lambkin.
To be released as 7" lathe in an edition of 50 copies featuring artwork by Lambkin (image above).
