Adam Kesher follow up their outstanding debut EP on Disque Primeur with this loaded single, featuring four new tracks and four remixes from all over the place. This EP also marks the official remix debut of the Lab's very own Snack &...   click for more

Digital release of the now out-of-print debut from Adam Kesher. (It never came out on vinyl.) Y'all might remember Adam Kesher's first appearance at the Lab from their rock cover of Para One's rave anthem "Dun-Dudun" on Institubes, but this EP is...   click for more

Dance music genius Arthur Russell is best known for his production for disco bands Dinosaur L and Loose Joints, but he was also way ahead of the curve when it came to left-field electro, ambient and noise work as proven in this...   click for more

"Springfield" is one of the last compositions Arthur Russell (Dinosaur L, Loose Joints) wrote in his all too short lifetime. Arthur recorded over four hours of tracking with the intention of collaborating with a producer for completion. It never happened until now...   click for more

Bad Brains' first LP from 1981. Crazy DC rastas playing whiteboy hardcore. And just like in basketball, the black guys run shit. Considered by many as one of the best hardcore LPs ever, the Bad Brains self titled debut brought a new...   click for more

Second album from Bloc Party, and that means it's time for the haters to start crying "sophomore slump!" Don't think anyone arguing that point will have a leg to stand on with A Weekend In The City, though: whereas many bands play...   click for more

This album is really phenomenal - one of the best rock albums of the past few years in my humble opinion, and you need it around. Tracks like "Banquet" and "Helicopter" absolutely nail the disco-punk thing but it's the shit that isn't...   click for more

Remix albums are not only usually just a quick cash-in on a hot band, but pretty dodgy in quality - but you know Vice wouldn't do you dirt! Even a couple years after the fact, these remixes of tracks from Bloc Party's...   click for more

A nice little companion EP to Bloc Party's Silent Alarm album. I'm guessing these are outtakes or leftover B-sides, but really they're solid enough to be album tracks. "Storm and Stress" starts out with guitars straight out of an old Capcom soundtrack,...   click for more

It feels like The Bumblebeez (aka Bumblebeez 81, but not to be confused with The Bees or Band of Bees) have been around forever, so I was surprised to find out that this album from late 2007 was actually their debut long...   click for more

When your parents are Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin, you basically ooze cred instead of eye crusties when you wake up in the morning. Charlotte Gainsbourg is better known as an actress than a singer in her home country of France (with...   click for more

"Bonafied Lovin" spawned no less than 4 separate vinyl singles, all with differing tracklistings. This digital release shares the same line-up as the Turbo single plus the unreleased Tough Guys mix (a pretty cool 80s pop version). For the fuzzy...   click for more

Dave1 and P-Thugg return to the album game after a few years of live shows and mixtapes, and they're sounding fresh as ever, proving why they're the shiny superheroes of the Vice roster. (These guys have funk laced in their bones like...   click for more

Chromeo consists of two guys from Montreal, Dave 1, Vice magazine's music editor, and his boy Pee Thug, one of the other guys at the Audio Research label. The record is also on Vice's record label, and that magazine's hating track record...   click for more

From the Avalanches, to AC/DC and especially to Kylie Minogue, Australian exports always manage to capture my man Roger Yamaha's heart. So when we got in this "Future" single by Melbourne's Cut Copy, it wasn't hard to guess who would be first...   click for more
