The New Bristol Shakers - CDR1
How to use the reserve function
If you'd like to purchase items from our site but want to save money on shipping costs, you can use our reserve function to combine your orders over an unlimited period of time, and ship them together for one combined shipping price when you are ready.
Just hit the 'reserve' button at the checkout page as your shipping option when you've finished making your order, and your order will automatically be held in reserve here until you are ready for us to ship everything to you.You can keep as many orders in reserve with us via our site as you like, until you are ready to ship. Just send us an email when you are ready to ship your reserve orders, and we will get in touch with the combined shipping price, or ship for free if you have exceeded the minimum order amount for free shipping to your address.
Can the reserve function be used to get free shipping? Yes - If your combined order total is more than £50 within the UK, over £150 within the EU, or over £225 worldwide, we'll ship your order to you via courier service, for free.
Here's a step by step guide to using it:
1. Click on the account icon to log into your account.
If you don't have an account, please click 'create account' to make one. If you had an account on the old RWDFWD site, please create a new one with the same email address used on the old site - this will ensure your previous orders are brought through to your new account.
2. Add records to your cart as normal.
3. When you're ready to check out, select 'ship'.
4. Then select 'Reserve items' on the shipping method list, then continue to payment.
5. Once payment is complete, your order will show in your account as 'unfulfilled'. We will have put all the products aside in reserve for you to combine with other orders and ship later in bulk.
6. When you're ready to ship all the items you have in reserve, email us on info@rwdfwd.com and we will calculate the shipping due and arrange for payment to be taken.
7. Sit tight and wait for your records to arrive in the post!

EU Order info
Unfortunately, the UK is no longer part of the EU - This means that certain shipments sent to addresses there from us may be subject to tax and / or import duty - All orders sent from RWDWD are sent ‘DDU’ - That is, duty unpaid - any import tax and/or duty is the sole responsibility of the buyer.
If you would like to use our reserve function to group several orders into one large shipment, we can arrange for it to be sent tax and duty pre-paid so you don’t have to worry about it at a later date - Contact us for more information.
Another CDR handed to us via Kin40k ov Pheasantry Society, this is one of two brand new and current offerings from the studio by the old police cells - a new piece in the recent wave of no-fuss underground sound dealings, served up on a CDR and handed to us in person - no bandcamp, no internet clips or promo hype... That real DIY style.
We're pretty much just here to help archive this to lean out of it ending up in the eternal void of the recent goblin market and brew market here in Bristol, where most of them were sold.
We had to sign a contract with blood & feather so our lips are sealed regarding who is involved in this one (it's at least two people, right?) but if you snatched any of the recent Pheasantry Society CDR's (which makes you one of about two handfuls of people, to be fair) upon listening you might take a guess who is involved, or at least one of the people... The other one may or may not have been involved in a recent Drowned By Locals fuelled all-star group that performed in Bristol and London last year... Call the Ambulance vs Ambulance and definitely enter into Operation Egodeath if you can guess who! Anyway, rest assured The New Bristol Shakers are coming correct, with a real headsy concoction of overdriven string plucked sounds, cheap keyboard symphonies and preset fuckry, hushed and echo'd vocals through feedback wall of noise and a beautiful frequency mush which'll make you feel like your brain is being cleansed and purified, ground up and re-set...
This one was, as far as we know, recorded straight to four track tape player and then re-pitched for good measure and extra warble.
Be prepared for a trip through raucous cacophony (Shake It All About) and low-slung, sizzling 2k25 pheasantry dirge (Universal Light) and then enter into demented wah-wah folk (Second Harvest) - to give some example of what to expect... But frankly this is just real, unpolished freak music of the finest order. Go weird or go home basically.
Edition of about 10?
By the way, we only have ONE copy of this one... Good luck!
P.S. if you're lucky you might receive some rather-rare miniature no-lens photos taken, and developed by Kin40k in a zip bag..
