Randy Records Distro:
We at Randy carry only the absolute finest records, records that we dry hump with our ears on the reg. If we love a record, we buy it. If we listen to it, and we can only say we like it, we say, fuck it! Let someone else sell this record. No one ever wrote a song called "All You Need is Like." No one ever said, "Like is the Answer." It's all about that sweet, sweet loo-oo-ove!!! We only want the cream of the crop, baby! Even if we knew we could sell 50 copies of a record, we wouldn't carry it if it didn't give us at least a semi-soft. So you, the customer, can rest assured that Randy will never waste your time with sub par records. It's our guarantee!!!
New to Randy:
Great punk out of Denton, TX. Their first two 7"s were AWESOME. The LP is also AWESOME! Buy it!
More great garage pop out of Indiana (ala The Romance Novels, Eric and the Happy Thoughts, The Half Rats, The Mans, The Sweet Sixteens, etc...) How did Indiana become such a hotbed of great rock 'n' roll? My guess would be it has something to do with The Gizmos... Anyway, this 7" has three great tracks of jangly, reverb drenched songs about girls and love. Listeners should note the sweet falsettos singer Ryan Pitts hits periodically in these songs. Very nice! That shit is hard to do well. And you can look forward to a Boy Toys LP to be coming out soon on Randy Records!
Great Southern Californian garage punk.

Hopefully you didn't sleep on the Real Numbers debut 7". If you didn't, you are already aware of how great this band is at writing poppy punk (but not pop-punk) songs. If you did miss it, you better make sure you don't miss this one. Very similar to (and sharing members with) Boys Club, Real Numbers play great punk in the same vein as the Gizmos, Zeros, Nerves, etc...
The first time I listened to this record, I though it was just okay. By the second listen, I was totally blown away. Greg Cartwright reaffirms his position as one of the premier songwriters of our time. This is easily one of the best records of the year.
I love the Strange Boys. Pure countrified rhythm and blues. You remember when people in bands were called "musicians" and could actually play their instruments? Well, The Strange Boys will help remind you. You gotta dig those duelling Telly's, and their drummer is a fucking beast. Their first 7" is one of my favorites of the last 5 years, and this LP does not disappoint. Definitely one of the best LPs of 2009.
I've been a fan of Ty Segall ever since I heard his surf punk band, "The Traditional Fools." Since then he has continued to make great garage rock records, and make alot of them. This one is as great as the rest of them.
Great new band from our hometown of Chicago. Includes Nathan from the Ponys, Tom from the Daily Void, yaddah yadda yaddah, but the real treat is the lead singer / songwriter, Rebecca. They will soon to have a 7" on Randy Records, so you know we love it. Highly Recommended!!!
7"s:
Featuring Mathew Melton from Snake Flower II, and other bands. More sleazy, trashy, seventies psych-pop for you and yours.
Third installment in the Bachelor Records "Batman and Robin" trilogy. Anyone who has ever owned a Batman and Robin record knows that these records are worth buying just for the artwork (by Michael Hacker) and the hilarious skits in between songs. Plus each record comes with a sweet poster. But, on top of all that, the songs are great too! All the other two peice garage punk bands should take note. This is how it is done!
The best, friendliest band in Chicago comes through with another great record. This is their their first release on their brand new, destined to be legendary record label, "Trouble in Mind." Grab this and satisfy your Cococoma fix until their new LP comes out in Goner soon.
Killer debut from these crazy canucks. If you don't have this you are a fool...
These dudes came through to Chicago and played a Milkshakes cover (actually a cover of a song the Milkshakes covered), so I fell in love with them. I offered to smoke them out, and they fell in love with me. Then we made babies. I put their songs at the end of a tape of all Velvet Underground songs I made and it hangs tough with the heavies.
Chicago party-rock stalwarts come through with their best record yet. These guys pick up where King Uszniewicz and the Uszniewicztones left off. If you don't like this record, then your soul is dead.
Nobunny can do no wrong, and he proves it here with his first single released on Hozac. "Give it to Me" is probably in my top 3 Nobunny songs ever written, and Motorhead with me might be number 4. Both are going to be stuck in your head for weeks after you hear this for the first time. NOTE: This record is on its 3rd or 4th pressing so it is on color vinyl and has the same sleeve design, only on colored paper.
Well the good news is this release is a split between the notoriously and lovably retarded Bubble Dumb records and Search and Destroy, which means I was actually able to get my hands on a few copies. I love bands that not only wear their influences on their sleeves, but wear them as badges of honor. Brass Knuckles is a great Ramones song that they never wrote. The B-side is a cover of the First Base’s “Nobody Makes My Girl Cry but Me” which is the best title of any song ever. Buy this!!!
Probably my second favorite "modern" 7", after the debut Sneaky Pinks 7". Better than the hozac 7" for sure (and that one is awesome). If you don't have this, don't tell me that you love rock 'n' roll. Essential. (Note: This is a repress which has the same design on yellow paper)
This is arguably the best 7" of the last 5 years or so. If you don't have this yet, you need it. If you don't know by now, you'll probably never know... (note: the sleeve has a slightly different design than the one shown here. Same horse legs, different Chuck.)
LPs:
Pure, corn-fed, Nebraskan "Cave Pop" (I don't know what that means, but that's what the Goner website called them). Super catchy and super, super happy garage rock. This album is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face.
The only true contender to Nobunny’s “Love Visions” for best album of 2008 (Okay, along with The Dutchess and the Duke album…) Killer glammy power-pop that sounds straight from the 70s. The album sounds great and the lyrics are just incredible. After listening to the album a bunch of times you kind of get the impression that King Tuff is some dude who smokes a lot of weed, probably took a few too many hits of acid and tweaked his mind a bit, drives an old box Chevy, wears a lot of gold, and breaks a lot of hearts. If you don’t have this record, you NEED to get it NOW!
Temporarily out of stock...
I am usually not a fan of stuff that is super poppy, and this stuff is just about as sugary sweet as it gets. But there is something about this record that makes me love it. Great lyrics, great song structures, killer drummer: it all adds up to one of the best LPs of 2008. If you slept on this one, now is your chance to make it right.
This LP needs no introduction. Super cheap on sexy multicolored vinyl. Snatch it up!
This is the LP that really caught everyone's attention. It's different than any of the albums that came after it in that it is alot slower and is way more psychedelic, but it is still just as good if not better. People were paying like $70 for this album on Ebay in recent memory, but it got repressed and is available here for only $14.50. What a fucking steal!!!
The first time few times I saw the Smith Westerns I was mostly blown away by their energy, their exuberance, and the general insanity of their live show. Everytime I saw them shit got broken. They would bring firecrackers, break their guitars, people would throw things at them, etc. For that alone, they were tons of fun to watch. But underneath all the antics I knew there were some good songs. As time has gone on, they have really matured as a band, and have started to write some great songs. This LP has so many killer songs. I already know for a fact this is one of the top 5 LPs of 2009. If you don't buy it now, you'll just end up buying it later. So quit procrastinating HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Some of my copies have dinged corners, so beware if you're a snob. Great long player from these guys!
Other:
Had problems finding this LP? You and everyone else. Well, the good news is the wonderful people at Burger Records put it out on cassette, so you can rock it in your car all summer long. Along with Nobunny's Love Vision, this is probably the best LP of 2008. 250 made.

Sweet Sixteens - Cassette (Pizza Party) $5 - More nuttiness from the Sweet Sixteens. Two song cassingle. Completely worth buying just to hear their totally twisted version of The Circle Jerks' "Wild in the Streets." Don't have the stats on it, but I'm sure it is limited, probably about 100 made, so grab it while you can.
