Brainlove Records announce 2009 Compilation: Fear Of A Wack Planet

Quixotic DIY record label Brainlove Records has announced the release of it's 2009 compilation, 'Fear Of A Wack Planet'.

A characteristically diverse mix, all 27 tracks team with the kind of positivity, sonic invention and skewed pop sensibility that has seen the label gather fans and supporters far and wide over the last 6 years.

It follows on from the success of the 2008 compilation 'Two Thousand And Ace', which was described as 'one of the most eclectic compilations imaginable' by Planet Sound, 'the best compilation of the year' by The National Student Newspaper and just plain 'amazing' by Kruger Magazine.

It picked up radio plays from Huw Stephens on BBC Radio 1 and new music DJs John Kennedy and Jon Hillcock at Xfm, and warm reviews from legions of independent music sites, mags and blogs.

'Fear Of A Wack Planet' continues this celebration of the spirit and imagination that exists in new music of all genres, whether the bands are in their fifth year or on their first gig.

The compilation is released this October 18, 2009 on ltd edition slipcase CD only, via Cargo Distribution, priced at £5. It is also available through the label website with free P&P.
