Queen 1
Queen’s self-titled debut album will be remixed and released this October. This is the first time that a Queen album has been remixed. Retitled Queen I for this release, the front cover’s Queen logo, originally designed by Freddie Mercury, will be updated with the addition of the Roman numeral “I”. The original album was recorded in 1972 and was released in July 1973 on EMI Records in the UK and Elektra in the USA.Featuring the singles “Keep Yourself Alive” and “Liar”, the album achieved Gold sales in the UK and USA, and has been a fan favourite ever since.This Collector’s Edition sees the album presented in a whole new light, having been newly mixed from the original multi-track masters, and with the song “Mad The Swine” now reinstated into the album running order in its originally intended place.The bonus discs that complete the 6CD+1LP set include: De Lane Lea Demos (also newly mixed from the original multi-track masters for the very first time); a CD comprised entirely of previously unreleased Queen I session out-take music and dialogue; a CD of instrumental and backing track versions of the album; a live CD featuring some of the best and most interesting live performances of songs from this album (some of which are previously unreleased); and finally, a disc comprised of Queen I tracks that were recorded for BBC Radio One (including DJ announcements).Queen I – including “Mad The Swine” – is also presented on 180g black vinyl.The Collector’s Edition is complemented by the addition of a 108-page 12” hardback book, which features a treasure trove of rare and previously unseen photography, hand-written lyrics, Freddie Mercury’s sketches, and more.Presented in a rigid two-piece box with fold-out poster and four photo prints

Prima Queen
The Prize
Candid, involving and full of character, Prima Queen’s music has become a world unto itself. The songs of Louise Macphail and Kristin McFadden play like a love letter to the radical power of friendship; to the fans who have reveled in the band’s bitingly charismatic storytelling. Listening to their glorious debut LP The Prize (due spring 2025 via Submarine Cat Records), you want to crawl up inside all of its effusive, empathic melodies and bathe in the warmth of the enviable bond at the record’s core.Described, accurately, by McFadden as an album that “screams empowerment and strength,” The Prize uses the pair’s fateful connection as a North Star for their shared journey towards growth. Tapping into the shimmering pop sensibilities of HAIM and Jenny Lewis, an openness of spirit defines these 12 tracks, partly inspired by the euphoria Prima Queen experienced on stage over the past year while touring with Olivia Dean, Dream Wife and Swim Deep. It’s here where the band establish themselves as astute, refreshingly frank songwriters, articulating supersized feelings with grace and wit.

The Black Queen
Infinite Games
The new full length album from The Black Queen, experimental elecontrics crossed over with alt-rock, formed by Greg Puciato (The Dillinger Escape Plan), Josh Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv) and Steven Alexander Ryan (Nine Inch Nails / A Perfect Circle - tech). The 10-track album marks the debut release to come from the band's newly formed creative entity, Federal Prisoner, a joint collective between the band members and acclaimed fine artist Jesse Draxler (creator of the artwork for both "Fever Daydream" and "Infinite Games"). While the partners are keeping their plans for Federal Prisoner under wraps, the enterprise will serve as the creative homestead for the foursome, with future releases already in the works. "Federal Prisoner won't function like a typical label," says Puciato. "It's an expression of passion and individualism in a way that opens more doors for us to create and to own what we create with minimal compromise. It's as much an act of refusal as it is a statement of intent. We won't be working within the current industry blueprint of premieres, ‘instant grat tracks' or any of that nonsense. We're concentrating on the music, videography and packaging, an aural and visual experience. It's exciting to create our own path."
