Ghost Town CD

2008 Important Records


Probably the best of the bunch. Pre-apocalyptic party jams abound. Vinyl is currently out of print. Sorry...

"This is gorgeous. This is great... This record makes me believe in the future of music."
- Coke Machine Glow

"While Ghost Town lacks the archness of LCD Soundsystem or the full-pelt charge of Holy Fuck, its dizzying shifts between harmony and simmering white noise, and Friel's playful but intense layering of contrasting sound textures make it the equal of both."
- The Wire

"There's really no scene that you could file this album under - Friel is out there on his own. As such, the best tracks on Ghost Town feel like revelations, like new ways of communicating shared musical ideas."
-Dusted Magazine

2009 Spooky Tree Records


Originally released on cassette by Night People back in 2006. Went out of print for a while, and is now back in vinyl only form, courtesy of Spooky Tree Records.

"Friel is doing shit that is unlike anything else out there right now. It's harsh and melodic, massive and hollow, gritty and lush, and creates hypnotically blissful ear candy that spans the grand desert jungle."

Sunburn CD

2004 Velocirecords


Released by the mighty Sam Hunt on the now defunct Velocirecords. Partially transparent "fan" CD packaged in reused jewel cases.

"The music he ends up with sounds like little else out there, a heaving mass of static beats, monolithic distortion, and bending, diving tones.. a unique and uncompromising sound that ultimately transcends its limitations."
- Pitchfork

Broken Man Going To Work CD

2001 self-released


The deep old school. A few of these tracks got retooled and renamed on the first Parts & Labor record . A few of them were recorded with a boombox in my 1999-2001 Bed-Stuy basement. Probably for true heads only, but not without it's charm.

"Strange and wonderful, and best of all, unlike anything else we can think of."
- Time Out New York
