Nod and Smile Records: 2013!

Hey all, check out my new label Nod and Smile Records! Mostly vinyl only, small runs of weird ass psych shit. First up is Aleister X's awesome Half Speed Mastered. You can preorder it on amazon here.

Aleister X's debut LP is finally here. The BK/HLYWD/DTLA/JA/JP Lion is back with his first real deal full length! Limited to 500 copies on dark, dark black 180 gram vinyl.
