Continuing our Record Store Day Black Friday Vinyl Giveaways, we’ll have a vinyl giveaway every day till we close for Thanksgiving. Be sure to stop by your local independent record store on Black Friday itself to pick up one of the Black Friday Special Releases, special limited edition vinyl released that day. In the meantime, enter to win one of our picks of already-released material for your lists of the nice, or if you prefer, naughty.
I woke up this morning to a time capsule email of pictures from last year, and I can’t believe how different my life has become. Something about this crisp fall weather has me extra reflective. I can imagine Caveman will be in a similar position a year from now, looking back on a whirlwind of success, overwhelmed by how well their new album CoCo Beware, released today on their own label, Magic Man Records and on ORG Music, has done, all the places they have traveled, and “The Great Life” they have cultivated through fluttering creativity and a genuine spirit.
If you know nothing about Caveman, you can study up by reading my review of the Red Palace (9/11) show, but honestly this New York Times article does a brilliant job of describing the “blur at the horizon” sound Caveman have mastered (minus the Strokes reference) and gives you all the factual tidbits you need as well.
If you weren’t around in September to grab the test pressing of CoCo Beware in our giveaway, then luck could change here. We have a copy of the new LP for one lucky reader. This is probably your new favorite fall album. It’s like a deer in your front yard peeking behind multi-colored leaves, gentle, mesmerizing, gorgeous.
So comment on this giveaway with a song on your current fall playlist and good luck!
The winner will be chosen a week from today, Tuesday, November 22nd, and must have a mailing address in North America. While you’re waiting to see if you’ve won, you can grab this free mp3 of, appropriately, “Thankful.”
