Sky Parade - Intoxicated

Custom Made Music are proud to announce the release of L.A. popgazers Sky Parade's new album "Intoxicated". Sky Parade are headed by former Brian Jonestown Massacre member Tommy Dietrick.

The albums 1st single, “I Should Be Coming Up (But I Keep Coming Down),” produced by Courtney Taylor of The Dandy Warhols is a three-minute fantasy-vs.-reality lament that pits an urgent rhythmic churn against giddy washes of synths.

The 11 track LP/CD also features appearances by Dizzy Reed (Guns N’ Roses), Zia Macabe (The Dandy Warhols) and Jeff Schroeder (Smashing Pumpkins, the Lassie Foundation). The LA Times have described the band as "A joyride of dense, churning guitars that sounds like Primal Scream getting Spiritualized!." The album will be released July 13th as a limited edition CD with 12" Vinyl soon after.

West Coast Record Release Dates:

7/9 Los Angels-The Bootleg Theatre W/Black Nite Crash

7/10 San Francisco - The Hemlock W/Black Nite Crash

7/16 Seattle-Live On KEXP

7/16 Seattle-The Sunset Tavern W/Black Nite Crash

Screen Vinyl Image Remixes

Screen Vinyl Image follow up their debut full length “Interceptors” with a collection of remixes both by the band and close friends. The remixes range from stomping dance floor cuts for clubs to trippy dubbed-out tracks perfect for headphone listening. Each track keeps the bands signature shoegaze/psychedelic/electronic mix that built up Interceptors praise throughout 2009 and found the band on many top 10 lists of the year.

Chaser is remixed by NYC’s Hypefactor and presents a version of the first SVI single from Interceptors in a light that recalls those classic Cure and Depeche Mode 12 inch singles. Until the End of Time is featured twice, first in a hallucenagenic light by NYC’s Remarkably Spry (Christo Buffman of The Vandelles) and on the B-side by San Fransisco’s I.H.M.C. offering a more classic electronic rendition of the song. What You Need is given a pumping four on the floor rendition by Paris’s TeengeSinTaste while Screen Vinyl Image remix both Pasing Through Mirrors off their debut EP The Midnight Sun and a droned out version of their second big single from Interceptors, Cathode Ray.

We are taking Pre-Orders for this 12" record now. A CD with all 6 tracks will also be included inside each jacket.
