We’ve noticed a shift. Over the past few years, we’ve been delighted to see so many people finding their way to record stores. It seems every time we check in with how the business is doing, we’ll often say “we’re seeing a lot of new faces.” This has been happening for a few years now […]

We are elated to announce and share our new video series I’ve Got Recommendations! Stinkweeds has long been a safe space to explore, discuss and discover your next favorite artist(s).

  Allah-las – Lahs [Mexican Summer] Admittedly, this one has more of a “summer vibe.” But what is a Phoenix Fall but a North East Summer. Lahs is a cool breeze on a hot day. It is the yogic, outward breath, releasing the dread of 115 degree days. It’s beachy vibes with a little spaced out […]

We suggest checking in at least once a month to listen to some artists that may not find their way to your ears through the normal channels. Here are 5 titles out of […]
