ORPHAN - Decapitated Lovers

"Decapitated Lovers is the second album by Brooklyn sheet metal duo, Orphan. Prominent among the albums nine tracks is a sprawling anthem, Tarantula Downforce," which clocks in at over 8 1/2 minutes, and a cover of "Well Fed Fuck," originally recorded by Born Against. The album features cover art work by Gardar Eide Einarsson, and is limited to 500 numbered copies pressed on clear vinyl.\r\nWhile many bands trade the bratty racket of their debut for a more mature sound on their second effort, Orphan remain willful misfits, having mastered a kind of precise abandon _¢‚Ǩ‚Äù math rock by an idiot savant. Or savants. Orphan is Brendan Majewski on bass guitar and howling,\r\nstrangled vocals, and Speck Brown on relentless, fight-club drums. In 2008, Other Music named Orphans debut _¢‚Ǩ_ìthe most ferocious record of the summer._¢‚Ǩ¬ù Two years later, that damaged intensity continues to drive the cold dark heart of a band called Orphan.\r\nConcurrent with Decapitated Lovers, Black Tent Records has released a split 12-inch with Orphan and Baltimore band, Dope Body. All of Orphans tracks are exclusive to this release, including their cover of Dragnalus, which appeared on the first album by Unwound." - From The Nursery.

After nearly a decade of false starts, multiple game plans veering off the rails, and a handful of shattered hopes and/or dreams, the odyssey is finally complete—the new Fusetron site is here.

This is the first phase of a multipart rollout that will span the next few months: the currently browsable stock includes miscellaneous new releases from the past 8+ months (we have a lot of catching up to do), plus approximately a third of our backstock. Note that we’ve reduced/slashed prices on many titles and will continue to do so in order to make room for new stock. We’ll also be expanding / tweaking / improving / debugging the site itself (for example, we still have work to do on the automated international postage system, not to mention the inevitable inventory discrepancies that come with transferring an ancient and massive database to a new system).

Over the next few months, as we take inventory, clean house, and delve into our storage, we will be uploading thousands of additional items, gradually, on a near-daily basis. This will include the majority of the LPs, as well as many titles, in all formats, once thought long-gone. Many currently “sold out” items are likely to resurface.

Finally, once our general backstock is up (probably in the next two or three months) we’ll begin making our extensive stockpile of rarities available online for the first time: tons of random out-of-print titles, "deadstock," warehouse finds, secondhand collectibles, etc., accumulated over the past few decades.

Frequent/returning customers will be getting early access to these items. Details to follow on how this will work (a priority mailing list? a 'frequent flyer'-like program?), but it will not be based on dollars spent. We want to reward those who consistently support us, especially in the discogs marketplace era (to those who show up trying to poach five copies of a one-off rarity, and nothing else, ever… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ).

So—we suggest you take some time to dig through the site—even we’ve been surprised by what’s been turning up, and there’s much more to come.
