We always wondered if our fine collection of ornamental frogs were at all hallucinogenic, and we'd like to thank Flamingo Shadow for testing them for us.

Frog-o-Vision.

It's here! The new Warehouse album 'super low', recorded and mixed at the Living Room. Listen to this, it's fantastic. One of the best bands we've worked with in a long time.

The Atlanta-based five piece is back with a howling, growling, raw piece of music with 'super low.'

New Warehouse single is rad (and recorded and mixed at the Living Room). Album "Super Low" is imminent!

Atlanta's Warehouse will release their sophomore album, Super Low, at the end of the month by way of the Brooklyn-based label Bayonet. This is welcome news, since we named Warehouse a Band To Watch last year based on the strength of their unconventionally catchy debut LP Tesseract. We've heard a few...

New Warehouse,from their forthcoming album, tracked and mixed at the Living Room! We love this band, and not just because they brought us jelly beans last time. About time they got some props from Pitchfork: the last album was a blinder, and so is the next one!

Fender party in the isolation room with Bad Spell, cutting their first release. Some genuine rock and roll going on this week.

Hot tip from our friends Warehouse: if you want the sessions for your second LP to go well, rehearse in advance, and bring Jellybeans to the studio.

This week, we are thankful for our Massive Passive EQ, which has been massaging sounds in sublime ways for many years without a single complaint. *This may be because we also have the Vari-Mu Compressor to keep it company.

Some great bands here along with the awesome Tacocat.

Alana Haim once told an interviewer that, “Growing up, there were a lot of girl artists like the Spice Girls, Aaliyah and Destiny’s Child. But none of them really played instruments and I would always look up to Stevie Nicks and Blondie -- they are ...

Guantanamo Baywatch share their secrets with the Australians. Some interesting insight on our vocalizing and interrupting services (call now for a quote). Also, listen to this record, it's awesome.

Garage punks Guantanamo Baywatch recently released their latest LP Darling… It’s Too Late and it’s everything we’ve come to expect and love from the Portland trio – snotty, hooky garage rock. Since the release of their first album back in 2010, the band have built a repuation on wrangling up somewh…

Paste Magazine gives Guantanamo Baywatch's new LP a rave review (and a nice name check for us!). "PERFECT SUMMER SOUNDTRACK FOR 2015", y'all.

Portland, Oregon has hardly ever been able to contain the mischievous likes of Guantanamo Baywatch. So it’s no huge surprise that when questing for the perfect recording environment, the trio bailed the cloudy Pacific Northwest for the sunny southern vibes of Atlanta’s Living Room Recording studio.…

Yeah, Stephanie! The Coathangers!

We wanted to give a shout out to one of our hardest working pieces of gear at the Living Room: our Otari MTR 90 24-track tape machine. Not our only tape machine, but our go-to recording device for many years and hundreds of awesome records. The recording industry standard in Europe back in the day! Calibrated and ready to capture rock 'n' roll at the drop of a hat.

Arkansas’ Pagiins are tracking dirt into your house and calling you on your s**t, again, with “Doo Doo” from their forthcoming LP O***m Den Pool Party. Hell, why not, Arkansas is American rock and roll incarnate and we were tired of hearing about your black bargain bin boots, Eric. The five-piece dr…

Like BURGER RECORDS, we are enormous die-hard Iggy And The Stooges fans, so it's amazing that the mighty Iggy Pop is digging on some music we recorded with the great Curtis Harding, and giving shout-outs on BBC Radio 6 Music! We love Iggy Pop and Burger Records!

Iggy Pop played Curtis Harding on his BBC6 Radio Show on July 20 and 27 and gave Burger a shoutout!!! This is probably the most important and greatest thing to ever happen to yer Burger Boys!!! Truly
