about

The Sha [aka The Smoke House Almonds] recordings date back to over 15 years ago, right at the beginning of the 00's - the band comprised of some young trippers regularly jamming/recording over a number of years, mostly whilst sharing living quarters in newtown i believe [when it was still affordable] - christian durham, matt earle & adam sussman.
Found in storage amongst dusty boxes are hundreds of recordings found across dozens and dozens of old cdrs, many in literally their last stages of life with holes / cracks etc. forming throughout them.. we've tried to salvage as many as possible, and here's a selection of findings!
The Sha certainly didn't limit themselves to one particular sound for sure, although a pretty constant "psychedelic" feeling is felt or heard through most of their output. Dabbling in many sounds/genres/noises/varying stages of consciousness .. [accidental?] elements of krautrock,acoustic psych,world,electronic,outsider,desert rock,prog,glitch,minimal,experimental,darkwave,funk,post-punk,non-music,etc.etc! plenty of epic jams, lots of them spanning well over an hour.
First volume of "Lost Recordings" spans across 3 discs. the compact kind. in a very limited run of 15!
A few bonus tracks on offer here to download - but you won't hear the much longer tracks unless you grab a copy of the triple cdr.

**A super small handful of extra copies were also made by "popular demand", using folded, qlty, heavyweight [pre-made kraft] marbled-red pattern cardstock w/ a flap at bottom with the band name and title, type-written on textured creamy-coloured thick paper fold & a chem imbal lettering embossed on the backside.. the discs are identified with a "S", "H" + "A" sticker on each paper cd inner sleeve in which they are all stored, found within hand-folded/DIY red marbled card jacket plus a text insert w/ minimal info about the band & release.. all packaged inside a large-ish resealable clear plastic outer sleeves :O
